Is there any other possibilities in the Saudi league? Nuno and the chap at wolves have been outstanding..

Now it appears Brazil are considering a manager from that league instead of Ancilloti.

Matthias Jaissle. 
 

Loved his work at RB Salzburg, but not sure we’d be able to prise him away from Al-Ahli.

Fully agree, it's the big issue at the club that it's so reliant on the manager rather than a strategy from the DoF who then picks the head coach based on this to avoid constant turnover of players and style. 

 

Also, agree on giving the academy talent time - we need a coach that can develop them as well. Seems to suggest an experienced, top-level assistant coach hungry to be a manager might be the best of both worlds, like Enzo. 

Really depends how brave they’ll be feeling again. 
 

If Leeds let Farke go, you’ll have three managers in Farke, Martin and Dyche right in Leicester City’s lap who’ve experienced Championship promotion, underwhelming as they are, it would be a safe and unsurprising route to go down. 
 

Or they can be brave and go the inexperienced route again, Davide Ancelotti probably tops that list right now as it seems he’ll definitely be available this summer.

Not a pool we will be shopping in. 
 

it’s not like a player where they’ve wasted time, a coach isn’t negatively impacted by managing in a different league. However, anyone out there, has gone for money and won’t be coming back for a low or reasonable amount

I wouldn’t be surprised if Gerrard is picked.

It would be quite something to follow up our last two managerial appointments with one that was even more stupid and incomprehensible. But if any club is capable of doing it, it's us.

Gerrard or Martin and I'm taking a break until they get themselves sacked for being sh1t  and or a total looney 

Did you say that about Ranieri? Most of us did. I don’t fancy them either but sometimes a club suits the coach and the coach suits the club and staff.

 I remember Susan Whelan (of all people?) actually communicating to the fans on the radio asking us to trust them, anyone else remember communication?

The Championship has proven in recent years that overwhelmingly it's the clubs with the biggest budget or the progressive manager that prevails.

 

Whilst Farke, Parker and possibly Wilder lead their clubs to promotion this season, it's the parachute payments as much as their experience. The year before Maresca, McKenna and Martin got promotion with minimal experience so you'd hope we realise that promotion should be more likely than not but only if we get our act together and appointing managers proven to be poor in the PL over a progressive but untested manager wouldn't be laying down the foundations for long term building.

 

At this stage all I want is a manager who will be brave to build a young squad, in particular with a nucleus from our academy and his side play with pace and aggression.

Gerrard with Beale wouldn’t be utterly terrible, take this miles over Martin

Gerrard as manager being supported by Rudkin. What a time to be a supporter 

🤢 

Would be an awful appointment. Seemingly held villa back and has spent the past couple of years in the Saudi “pro” league.

@Claudio Fannieri @Ric Flair

We might be in the shit, but Argyle’s situation sounds shitter, could he be available 🤔

 

They are mid table in league form since he took over, he’s really turned them around and rightly says they would be safe if he had come sooner. Very interesting one!

Strange that nobody here is mentioning Cifuentes. Now West Brom have said they're not interested, I would have thought his, would be a name in the frame for us.

Sounds far too exotic for our board. Rudkin would never be able to get his head around around a name like that.

He might be flavour of the month because he appeared on MNF, but I have to say, Will Still has to be a very credible option for a number of reasons. 
 

This article was written when he was at Reims https://theanalyst.com/2023/11/the-revolution-at-reims-under-will-still

 

I think his style of football would resonate more with our fanbase. Quicker progressive passing, aggressive pressing. Has also been willing to be versatile with formations both at Reims and Lens. 
 

He’s also worked with younger squads, when he first stepped into Reims, they had the youngest squad in Ligue 1. When it comes to youth development, targeting managers from certain leagues like France, Belgium, Netherlands, where youth development is key would be a very wise move, looking at managers from those countries, Will Still is probably the most realistic and credible name of the bunch. 
 

The only negative I would give is that he loves a dip in form, in both season’s at Reims he had them pushing for Europe, but they fell away in both campaigns. 
 

But from a style of play and youth development perspective, he has some credibility in the bank over some of the underwhelming names that are unsurprisingly linked.

Would absolutely love him here and feel like he's got a 5+ year stint at a club in him. A builder.

I would love him here, too, but I don’t think he got any coaching badges, I might be wrong!
