Next Manager

His record is terrible I agree, 3 promotions no lets have none of that

This is the problem with everyone's perception of who a good manager is (mine included). They're all judged on their last job or rather their failures and then they're considered rubbish. Basically every manager has failed somewhere. And so many have had success but it's all relative. How many managers actually get the time they need or a chance at a club where they're set up for success? 

 

On Farke, he'd be so uninspiring but you can't argue that he's not a good manager with 3 promotions on his cv

I always thought it was unfair to judge Farke on his prem stints because it was pretty apparent they were happy to be a yoyo club and take the money instead of giving it a go.

 I'd still say we are the most attractive side for any manager given the recent history, training ground, fan base etc but it's weighing all that up against the sheer incompetent board that they would have to work under. 

 

 

Id say being a manager with our shit support is also a problem, if you arent top after 5 games, you can be sure they will be calling for the next mans head.

Our fans are among the most passive and undemanding in the country. That's part of our problem.

Not to managers they arent, they soon get on managers/players backs if its not going to plan.

Dyche is a massive no. The stars aligned for him with Burnley and he had a set of players and fans that just clicked similar to our title winning season. Take him out of that context and he really isn't what we need and wasn't great with Everton. Uninspiring defensive football. 

 

Farke would be excellent for us next season. Proven on 3 occassions to get out of the championship. 

 

Once promoted re-evaluate. Its horses for courses.

 

Just please not martin. 

 

Ideally the time machine back to Rodgers last season when unai emery was a very realistic possibility.

His footballing style gets you out of the championship.  The problem is once up it leaves his teams wide open against every Premier team. Some of Norwich's best performances where against the likes of Man City and the more expansive footballing sides.  

 

Basically this is how we probably would have been under Enzo.

 

So I can see why Leeds are maybe looking, but then do they go and get a Dyche type manager.

 

I think Farke is a fairly decent manager, but you can't build a stable Prem side with him.  He'ld fair better at a bigger club, with better players in place

[FrankieADZ]

I'd like someone whos going to build something, give the youth a chance, and all due respect to Dyche, that is not him

 

look how he got on with Everton this season, and how they compare to Moyes has got them playing

its night and day difference

 

we wont see the likes of Alves, Fatawu and Mav all starting in the same 11 with Dyche either, he might be the "safe" option but he isnt what this squad and players we wont would suit either

In terms of us not wanting to spend any money prising anybody away from anywhere perhaps we'll be linked with Ancelotti Jr and that young Arsenal coach again.  Names that reared up before Maresca and last summer when he buggered off.

It's a loads of shite this! Every single club has a small minority of idiots who want managers sacked all the time, it's not just Leicester. Let's not pretend it's a large part of our fan base when it isn't. A large part are very very unhappy right now and rightly so, but our fan base is no worse than any other. If anything we are worse but for the opposite reason, as too many just put up with the absolute shit show we've seen over the past 2 years. If anything we are too passive and accepting of poor standards. Only recently have many finally started to turn against the board and the owner and even now we still have a fair few happy clappers and "we are where we are" types.

I wouldn't have imagined this response in a million years.

I just want to make it clear that I was joking, I don't want to be accused of spreading misinformation

 

Although imagine it was true!

We could be sitting 18th in the nPower in December. 

 

Our fans will still be frantically clapping the players off, heads tilted backwards and mouths agape waiting for their leaders to toss in another doughnut to keep their thoughts occupied for another six months.

****s sake  the worst bit is how believable it is!!!

[Bilo]

If you want a good indicator of Dyche's abilities, see how Moyes has done with the same players.

 

The game has passed him by and he hasn't evolved with it the way his successor has.

[Foxin_Mad]

The list of names is absolutely honking so far.

Hahahahaha that is abysmal, we have a potential golden generation of youth talent as one of the only things going for us and people want this as our manager 

And that’s just two season’s worth. 
 

Throughout his tenures at Burnley and Everton, Dyche has relied heavily on experience in one way or other in all his season’s in management. 
 

He might be a no nonsense hard nut, but there’s too many red flags. 
 

With our cluster of young talent, I really don’t understand why some are advocating for Dyche, his history of developing young squads is non-existent. 

[Jazzy_Jeff]

[winteriscoming]

As much as I don’t want Dyche imo we could do worse with Martin or Carsley. 
Having said that I think we could do considerably better than Dyche. 

[adam]

Didn't Dyche state in one of his recent interviews that he is good mates with Rudkin. Probably already a done deal.

I don't see any better options realistically we could get that could get us promoted at the first time of asking and b keep us in the premier league?

 

Is Rohl better? he may be in the future, but as of this moment, he's just a young manager with potential, and I don't think we can risk that type of appointment this time around.

Same people turning their nose up at Dyche are the same ones that did the same when Moyes was linked after Cooper (not that he necessarily wanted to come)

 

He has achieved far more than some of the journeyman being touted about here, getting Burnley to Europe is given their budget was an outstanding achievement.

 

Think people fall into a trap of judging a book by its cover when talking about his style. It isn't just hoof it, he likes to get the ball wide, get balls into the box. To me that is more exciting than having 65% possession amongst your centre halves and goalkeeper. Also I would say it's much more likely to keep you in the Premier League (as he did with Everton despite being completely hamstrung.) Pearson falls into the same category from an outsider, they see him as some sort of Brexit manager, but our football under him particularly in the year we went up was entertaining, and the back end of the great escape the same.

 

He would have to be backed to bring his type of player in which to me would ne the biggest obstacle as can't see many of our pathetic mob being able to cut it.

 

 

Apart from the obvious tactics thing ... sometimes a teams style reflects the managers personality .... if you were a city player when Martin O'Neil was bouncing about on the touchline or Pearson with a face like thunder you would certainly be raising your game as opposed to Cooper on Van Noidea... and think .... well they don't look much bothered why should I 

[Claudio Fannieri]

I have a horrible feeling it will be Dyche and his friendship with Rudkin gives the owner the ideal opportunity to spin a yarn that Rudders was integral in attracting the new man and the status quo can continue even longer. 

[Aleksz]

This clubs future is somehow even more on its arse if they appoint Dyche. Bye Monga, Evans, Nelson, Alves. Hello Michael Keane, Ashley Young and Ashley Barnes.

Means absolutely nothing. It's just our idiot fans who don't know anything putting five pound bets on. 

 

Top still thinks we're going to turn in to Barcelona, he won't ever hire Dyche. I doubt we'd ever even consider him.

He did hire Steve Cooper…….
