Cooper was a proven promotion manager.  And he was gash.

With what, one lucky play off promotion with Forest? Not having that

I can't stand the bloke, but he did a sensational job there - particularly that season. 

 

His PPG (after taking over a side bottom of the Championship) would have been 92 points over a whole season.

 

They had a lucky decision in the final, but they were probably the better side and nothing to say they wouldn't have won had it finished level at FT.

Huddersfield were on the wrong end of a few key decisions in that game. 
 

They had a storming run of form I don’t deny that but the original point was he’s not some promotion specialist. He failed to get promoted Swansea with a very good team too.

He's not a promotion specialist at all, no. But it's harsh saying it was lucky. He did a superb job that season.

 

But beyond that - he's a complete clown lol

I’ll repeat what I said months ago on a different topic:

 

Some on here need to reassess. You were big Pearson fans and still are yet you turn your noses up at Dyche and his men. They are EXTREMELY similar. 
 

For the record I would choose Rohl over Dyche.

Burnley and Everton may not have been fortunate to have a conveyor belt of talent coming through from their academy so whilst Dyche shouldn't necessarily be criticised for his poor track record in blooding academy players, he's also minimal experience in doing so.

 

Why would you choose a manager without that skill set?

 

He's favoured experience over youth quite regularly in terms of signings, although he's nowhere near as bad in that regard as has been labelled. I think the biggest red flag for me though is he's never looked to recruit and trust creative flair players and that is literally our strongest area with major depth in Mavididi, Fatawu, Alves, BEK, Monga, Evans. For that reason alone he seems completely unsuited.

 

If we stand any chance of getting ourselves out the mess we've preceded over in recent years then we need to build squad value too, so any manager coming in must have young player development as their number 1 priority.

Posted numerous tables from Transfermarkt that is littered with the evidence. Every season at Burnley and Everton, Dyche always shows up on the oldest squad, oldest starting 11 list. 
 

Tarkowski, Mee, Keane, Collins, Branthwaite were all under 24 when Dyche played them. 
 

But I think we all know by now what he will also do if appointed. 
 

Instead of 1-2 experienced signings, it will probably be 4-5. 

which is why he isnt suited for us

 

im sure everyone will be over the moon when BDR and Ayew start over Fatawu/Monga/Mav

 

*if he comes

Leicester are set to sack Ruud van Nistelrooy after July 1, talkSPORT understands.

 

The Foxes want to avoid firing two bosses in the same PSR year having already axed Steve Cooper to make way for Van Nistelrooy.

 

Sheffield Wednesday boss Danny Rohl has been earmarked as a potential replacement for the ex-Red Devils striker.
 

Meanwhile, Leicester director of football John Ruskin has been pushing for Sean Dyche to replace Van Nistelrooy.

 

But club sources have denied the former Burnley boss has been lined up to take over.

Wednesday were one of the best teams we played in the Championship season under Enzo. Massive fan of Rohl. You don’t work for clubs like Leipzig and help coach the German national team unless you’ve got something about you. He would utilise a high paced, pressing style of football. I’d be over the moon if we brought him in.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

I would love it to be Rohl. He seems to be flexible in his choice of formations & unlike Maresca not locked in to one style only.

As much as I want Rohl it worth noting that Ruud also worked for the Dutch national team and look how he did with us.

Great research as always, guys.

Makes me happy, hope it hurt his feelings, the guy is one a one man crusade to be less liked than the pope at Ibrox in Leicester

Think it will be Rohl or someone similarly young and driven, just don’t see us going for Dyche, would be a PR disaster that the club just can not afford right now, need someone marketable to try to bring back some of the sales they have lost

Except they haven't lost sales.

 

Those who have walked away have all been replaced - presumably by happy-clappies who have no problem with Rudkin and genuinely believe we'll cruise to another instant promotion no matter who the manager is.

 

Fear such folk could be in for a less-than-pleasant surprise..

Forest under Cooper were on course for yet another mediocre Championship season until THAT Cup tie against us.

 

Rodgers and Ward (the keeper that day) really do have a lot to answer for..😡

So I decided to watch some Dyche/Burnley highlights of when they was in the championship, (don’t advise this) to see if Dyche’s style varied in the championship compared to premier league football. In short, it didn’t. I came away thinking if they didn’t have prime Danny Ings they wouldn’t have gone up. No winger took on their man nor did a full back overlap, the plan was simple…

 

lump crosses into the box at the soonest opportunity in hope Vokes will get on the end of it with Ings lurking for scraps. 
 

I always love the Coaches Voice as you get a close insight into how a manger see’s their own philosophy, yet Dyche even manages to make this seem very boring and uninspiring.

 

Honeslty believe with this current playing squad (Pro’s and youngsters) as well as the atmosphere among fans currently, Dyche in my opinion would be one of the worse selections available to us currently.

Enzo > Cooper > RVN > Dyche would just confirm we have no blueprint or strategy.

As much as I don’t want to make this another thread about Top, Rudkin and co. 
 

This would put the nail in the coffin for this board room. If the rumours are true about Top wanting to go one direction and Rudkin wanting to go another, it displays that the duo will never be successful.

 

In any business whether that’s sports, everyday businesses whatever it may be, if people at the top are not aligned and don’t share the same vision of how to move forward then it’s a disaster waiting to happen. 
 

In our case the disaster is ongoing and the fact some people are still sleeping on this is astonishing to me.
