We should keep Stowell and Sandler until the end of the season. We can then go all out to get Potter in the summer. Believe me, I live in Sweden and what Potter has done here is absolutely amazing. What he's done for Brighton is equally amazing. Let's think long term and wait for Potter!

Weirdly I quite like Jesse Marsch. I think there's a decent coach and man manager there. I suspect the reason we'd be interested is how he managed to halt Leeds slide last season (by the skin of their teeth). 

 

This appointment has to work for 8 games, we could well be navigating a very tumultuous time that see's us have several managers in a short space of time as we rebuild.

You seen his face though Ric? The guy looks like a mime. 

Nothing good comes from America.

Nothing.

...instead of this panic and looking around to save our skin, why not take a look further down the road with a long term view!!!

  We are all over the place trying to get someone in and you cannot make good decisions while you are desperate. 

  Keep the interim management team (Stowell and Sadler) and where ever we end up, we draw up a plan right now of where we need to go, and how to get there. No-one appears to have been looking down the line, and all we are doing at the moment is compounding our error in regards to failing to address a problem that has been evident for quite some time.

"Marsch typically deploys a 4-2-3-1 shape, with the three behind the striker attacking narrowly, the full-backs providing the width, and a strong emphasis on vertical play along the ground. It's a style that massively suits one Patrick Bamford, as the strikers are often fed through-balls."

Sounds very much like what most of us what want to see, to be honest. Marsch is a strong proponent of "minimum width" too apparently. Which with our inability to get the most out of two wingers, might actually be worth pursuing 😅 (I'm oversimplifying here).

Marsch now 2/1.

 

Looks like someones ITK. Wouldn’t be a bad appointment for me.

2/1 doesn’t really mean much in that market - you expect strong odds on below 1/5 if there was real news


but the events of last Sunday shows that we don’t leak into that area 

 

but interesting that he’s shortened across all the bookies which could mean someone thinks they know something and have spread their few hundred quid around.

He won’t come to a championship club

For me, I think we need a new manager bounce for these last few games and a new approach, brief as the period is.

 

Long term yeah I'd have Potter for sure but we need something different first in the short term.

The attraction of someone that understands the Red Bull model is clearly there. Whether the club hierarchy is prepared to accept the necessary changes that could involve ditching Rudkin remains to be seen.

Which is why we won’t appoint a permanent manager until the summer. Depending on what division we’re in, we’ll be fishing in two very different talent pools for the permanent position. Potter is a realistic possibility if we stay up, but not if we go down.

Has it been explained (even with a fan theory) as to what this nonsense about the Red Bull model is all about? Why would we look at that and think "let's do that"?

2019-20

Patson Daka 45 games, 27 goals

Manager - Jesse Marsch

 

2020-21

Patson Daka 42 games, 34 goals

Manager - Jesse Marsch

Managing Red Bull Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga is akin to managing Celtic in the Scottish Pub League.... We have kind of been here before.   But Daka was prolific in terms of goals, that is factual.

I think that there is a line of thought that the club could be sold into that ownership - with no evidence whatsoever

Not so sure why, I highly doubt we're selling up to join Red Bull and we've shown scant evidence with Leuven of doing anything in a similar manner.

Nothing to do with Red Bull.

 

The club wide approach of signing and developing talent that is then sold on. The net spend by season for RB Leipzig is impressive and they still compete at the top end of their league.

 

Even their coaches are young and sought after, I suspect they even make profit when they move on.

Got you.

 

The only issue is that the track records of those that leave Salzburg is very patchy. Marco Rose has been impressive but there's been plenty flop. Be interesting to see if this Jaissle is any good.

I would take anyone as manager as long as they do away with this passing round the back rubbish, and I mean literally anyone. We continue with Sadler and we finish bottom.
