Which was the opposite of a pleasant surprise!

According to The Times, we’re in ‘no hurry’ to appoint a new manager. For those without a subscription, other highlights include:

 

*Several out-of-work managers are thought to be interested in the job

*However, we are not restricted to currently unemployed managers and are willing to pay compensation for the right man

*There has been no contact between the club and Steve Cooper although he is keen to return to the PL

*Vardy and Vestergaard are both expected to stay irrespective of who comes in

Re-signing Vestergaard regardless is a crazy decision.

I wonder if the official appointment will be after 30th June even to help with FFP?

We will now be entering the twilight zone for the next few weeks ... Top .. Rudkin and Whelan..  all have other stuff to do ... holidays ... shopping... gardening... hair and nails ....

A very valid point .... how can you interview for a manager when he will have his hands tied and a blindfold before the outcome is known ... and not in a kinky way 😂

No, it shows who the media are guessing we're looking at, occasionally popping in another random name to add a bit more intrigue and speculation. 

This. probably has more of this fun for at least the next week / 10 days.  Joy.

Pascal Jansen is an interesting one

 

He was Arne Slot's (my favourite manager in recent years) assistant at AZ Alkmaar and then took over from him in 2020. He was there for 4 years.

 

Finished 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 4th and got to the Semi finals of the Conference League the year we did as well.

 

Nothing hugely special but his track record with developing young players is excellent.

Is it Rudders who identifies, recommends the prospective manager or does Top take a more active role?

[ARTY_FOX]

Sarri is well and good... 

 

But zonal marking making s return

Absolutely.

Puel was just straight up awful.

Underachieved under Rodgers - didn’t deserve to win the fa cup.

Bottled champions league TWICE.

And Maresca was indeed a miss. Wrong manager, wrong time. All three think that the team with the most possession wins the game.

If you can't enjoy the good stuff of the last few years mate just give it up, supporting Leicester isn't for you

I think it’s more just pulling a name from a very large hat

Think Top’s more active role is Polo.

[Sly]

Chelsea fans hated Sarris football. It’s not different to Maresca though.

Liam Rosenior anyone?

Think he’d be a real long term role.  Would probably take us down with the points deduction, but then he’d be able to rebuild us for another PL push.  Not really afforded time at Hull

[Fox 4 Life]

I read Sarri isn't interested and waiting for a better opportunity. Not keen on him anyway. Corberan or Potter would be ideal.

[kingpower]

I think unless it’s a manager who’s out of work then we won’t be paying any compensation until 1st of July as it’ll fall into the next round of accounts. The £10m+ for Enzo will deffo help this time round so why would they want to offset that - then again, it is Rudkin running things so…

[Nolucklcfc]

Not sure Sarri is the right fit. Unlikely anyway

Sacked by Hull for playing boring football, so no thanks.

And that's just Rudkin!

Will be a very decent coach at the top level but probable he needs to do another few years in the championship - so that’s a yes for us 😄

I know absolutely nothing about him but I now desperately want him to manage us because of that photo alone.

The guy is a legend.

We will definitely be entertained if it is him.

Whilst I still think Corberan would be the right appointment, Sarri is probably second on the list for me of names linked.

[Sunbury Fox]

I was all for Corberan too but I'm stupidly excited about the idea of Sarri coming in!
