Next Manager

[FrankieADZ]

 

[Happy Fox]

Marti did a good job with QPR wouldn’t be averse to him, certainly far better than the likes of Garry O’Neil , Chris Wilder and Dyche.

Rohl would have been our number one choice, but Marti is certainly a strong Candidate.

[Dan]

Actually don't mind him. Do wonder what exactly what went wrong towards the end with QPR and why he's ended up leaving but he did do well there for a while. Was a time when he and Rohl were in very similar conversations.

 

As ever the entire process behind our managerial appointments is ****ing mental. He's been out of work what, 6/7 weeks? How was this not lined up a lot earlier? We got relegated so long ago and the one plus to this is that it gives you a time advantage over your rivals. We've chuffed it away to... play polo?

 

They might've lucked it on him again though. Small positive shoots in what I've seen of him.

Relative is a lifelong hoop and I've got some work links to the club. Martí is well regarded and did a great job after some rocky years, where League One looked a dead cert. Would be happy with this. 

I’ve seen Qpr quite a few times over the past couple of years. I think most of their fans were disappointed in the way he was treated. They’ve got a young dof whom he didn’t get on with.

Excited about this, glad it’s looking likely to be him over other options we’ve been linked to.

[st albans fox]

Bit weird that he’s got to sort out a severance package when he’s already left by mutual consent.  Perhaps he’s got an agreement where they keep paying him until he finds a new job and at that point he has to negotiate a settlement.

Thought this cretin disappears when we're in the championship

Before yesterday I’d never heard of Wasserman or Cifuentes, now it’s like we’re old chums!

[indierich06]

Hearing this is very close, only snag is that they want him to shave his head so he'll look more like Enzo or Guardiola. Could be a deal breaker. 

[kingpowerout]

He’s paying his own compensation clause. Bloody hell how broke are we!?

I'd take Cifuentes 100%, he was on my list a couple of weeks ago, definitely leaning to the side of the fence that I don't really like (he's far closer to Enzo than Rohl) but I think he speaks well, isn't afraid to call the board out as proven already, is not afraid to drop/sell players who don't make an effort or buy in to the club and the ethos he wants to create. 

Would much prefer Rohl, but this is the best we have been linked with apart from him. 

Change your pictures buddy. It's happening. 

[st albans fox]

Is cifuentes with wasserman ?

if not then from what I’ve worked out from this forum, he won’t be our new head coach  

[Number 6]

Cifuentes would have been my second preferred realistic choice after Rohl. I think Rohl has a higher ceiling but Cifuentes did a good job at QPR and is a much better option than Wilder/O'Neil.

[st albans fox]

Btw, lots of these media folk were telling us it was potter a year ago

Not a lot between Rohl and Cifuentes from their time in England. Took over utterly mingbeast teams in 23rd and 24th and comfortably kept them up.

 

Last season, QPR at one point were on a seriously impressive run but something happened at the club which might not just be him wanting to go to West Brom and him being stuck on gardening leave.

 

He reminds me a bit in his past of Marco Silva.

 

High energy football, emphasis on wingers and pressing. Plenty to like about that. 

 

Will now see what his record is with young players.

Interesting article in the Standard from when he joined QPR:

 

Cifuentes is now expected to take a keen interest in QPR’s youth system.

 

“We must always look to the academy first”, he said in a recent interview.

You can sort by age and just at QPR there is a good amount of young players getting good minutes
