Predictions if you get Cooper:

 

- you’ll win loads of home games including against some big clubs 

- you’ll get walloped in lots of away games

- you’ll stay up, endangering Forest in the process 

- you’ll feel conflicted about all of this because he hates the Leicester, he hates the Derby and he thinks Forest are magic 

He gets my vote then

"There will be inevitable disappointment in the Leicester dressing room but, equally, some players will be unmoved.

 

"Maresca was so devoted to his philosophy that he could at times become stubborn and dogmatic. It was a meeting called by senior Leicester players towards the end of the season that helped them over the line."

I wonder which players will be feeling 'unmoved' today...?

 

 

The strikers probably wouldn't be all that fussed. The defenders that couldn't get a game too. 

 

I'd imagine the likes of KDH, Ndidi, Ricardo, Winks, Hermansen, Mavididi and Fatawu are the disappointed ones. I.e. Wingers, Midfielders and the keeper.

Moyes will at least want to be here. There is a need to stabilise than having another need to refresh next season when x up and coming manager gets interest from a big club again

[Leicester_Loyal]

Gonna be Corberan if we want to pay the money, Cooper if we want a free.

 

I still think Corberan.

Reading Graham Potter is only interested in the Man Utd or England job but the guy needs to realise he hasn’t worked since Leaving Pond Scum Sucking Chelsea, he needs to realise that his reputation isn’t as good as it used to be and he’s been out of management for Far too long so he needs to stop dreaming get off his area and rebuild his reputation and management skills !!

I mean he is a possibility for the England job but he needs to have a reality check.

Souttar, coady for sure 

And Ward. He's probably plotting his route back to the first team at this very moment.

Or it shows that we're targeting somebody currently in a job and we can't afford the compo until 1 July.

Is it Thomas Frank ?

[Chelmofox]

I want to see us launching long throws to Souttar in the box, Corberan style!

With our financial constraints I wonder if we'll have to set our sights a little lower.  Perhaps Neil Warnock is looking to cross us off the list of teams he hasn't managed yet.

Corberan a leading candidate, would cost £3.5m-£4m

The best candidate for me, but given that it's not just Corberan we need but an entire new backroom staff, I can see the expenses being a real issue.

 

The club are likely going to be in a position that even if we get relegated we have to stick with the next manager we appoint, so the choice is crucial.

That’s why Corberan makes the most sense. He’s proven himself at championship level.

Wouldn’t mind him

The thing is Copper also fits that criteria and has no fee. If he hadn't previously managed Forest, I think the deal would already have been done!

 

Corberan for me has the edge because he's shown with nothing to spend he can still get results. WBA only had loan players last season and arguably their most important player in Dike was out all year. They even lost Sarmiento halfway through to get sent on loan to Ipswich. Despite that he still got to the play-offs, and that's the second time he's done it. From a purely tactical / coaching point of view, he out thought Enzo twice last season, even though he got zero points.

 

Cooper perfomed a miracle with Forest, but their owner was bankrolling them even in the Championship.

Yeah me too. I won't get out of bed for anything less tbh

[em9999]

Potter thinks he better than he is , he's a average manager that didn't even do that good of job at Brighton to warrant the praise he got ..

 

Bit like Enzo but English

Proven in what sense? reaching the playoffs isn't proven imo.

But then cooper would make more sense because he’s actually got a club promoted, corberan hasn’t.

I'm afraid we cannot allow a manager who looks like a Toby mug to maintain our safety in the Prem, especially one who managed them. 

Tsssk

It’s a Toby ‘jug’

You need to watch more real deal, Spherical

👍

 

[Finn Claw II]

Super Cooper.  Feeling he’s our number one.

[Happy Fox]

Corberan seems to be the flavour of the month but he is a bog standard manager, we are better off going for someone experienced that would keep us up, and build again in the short-medium term.
