Bert Posted 15 December 2018 Share Posted 15 December 2018 Just because a manager is with another club, doesn’t mean he’s not available. We could go for Bielsa, Wagner, Farke and there’s no reason why they wouldn’t come here there than approaches being rejected. None of the clubs they’re currently at are set better than ourselves. Even if Leeds or Norwich were to come up, we are still the better proposition. More established. More money. New facilities on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 16 December 2018 Share Posted 16 December 2018 If Jardim is even slightly possible we need to do everything to get him in while we can. That's the man who can take this club to another level. I am convinced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the man who can take this club to another level. I am convinced. Why the rush for this man? His past career is hardly startling is it, in fact for longevity and consistency in foreign leagues, on paper, you'd have to say Puels is arguably better. He'd be a big risk and would he suddenly know who to buy, if anyone, that is suitable for the Premiership having had no experience? (I realise it is the same for any foregn manager but why this ons). The fact that he likes to play 'attacking' football is a word that may glitter to many, but if you were to ignore Southampton and read Puels CV wouldn't people be screaming to get him also? If we are to get rid of Puel we don't necessarily need to be blinded by the sight of a foreign name, one that was also undogtedly sacked for a reason, just a poor start to a season? For me, I'm just struggling to see a name that readily jumps out at me and for a manager that has to consider a current safe position, what precisely is it about Leicester City that would be so attractive a proposition? We seemingly get rid of our managers quickly, we have a plethora of ill bought ill fitting players (mixed with some precocious young talent) but, tempered with a fear that there are still a few players that seemingly still have enough power that, if your ideas don't match there's, like the past few managers you'll end up out on your ear. I'm not saying don't get rid of Puel but you can't just risk any old exotic sounding name in the hope he comes good on a football supporters whim, it has to be much more scientific. Any new manager will have yet another 'philosophy' and no doubt will want to spend yet more money. IF Puel is that unpopular with the players, what say we keep him until he completes the horrible task of getting rid of the shower of deadwood we undoubtedly have clearing the way for new signings by him or the next manager. The hatchet job needs completing and that includes any trouble making element whatever or however big their name. Now is not a time to be sentimental. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l444ry Posted 16 December 2018 Share Posted 16 December 2018 Martin O'Neill until the end of the season for me. Would lift the place overnight. Might even make it a longer stay if things worked out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we'd gone all out for him in the summer with a decent transfer kitty and sizable contract we might have been able to prise him away... but with the Newcastle takeover looking more likely, I think he'll make a go of it there.

He's being judged on the low intensity football we're seeing week in week out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would still have been a large(r) number of Puel outs though. In order to change that, scraping 4 points from 6 wouldn't do either. To change those opinions, he must pick up points whilst the team plays with a certain verve. Points alone will no longer be enough if they are 'scraped' I'm afraid.

WestLothianFox Posted 16 December 2018 Share Posted 16 December 2018 Give the job to Doris the tea lady until the end of the season, she will be able to motivate the players better than Puel, with the promise of a cream crumpet after the game if they win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sithbaare Posted 16 December 2018 Share Posted 16 December 2018 As mentioned in one other thread. As a liverpool fan, Seeing the effect that Rafa had on the academy with the club as well as the results. we've scouted better youth with Rafa. He was pretty good at finding bargain buys(Coutinho was a Rafa referral for instance) I'd love for Rafa to get backed by a club with money & resources. He's not going to be in Newcastle the next year, Ashley's asking price is way too high and unreasonable for any potential buyer. Rafa's play a typical 4-2-3-1 with width and using the wingers. Couple of good investments to increase the pace on the pitch and probably a good CB backup to Fuchs((Lascelles?) and he'll get your side to scratch in next to no time. Not to mention the work that Rafa does behind the doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
