League One - Who manages us?

[Winstonthedog]

Anyone who doesn't play the tippy - tappy - lack of direction- a thousand passes and we haven't left left our own half - numbingly dull boring over exhaurated football that turns people off the game ..... give us some fu*king passion ... something to enjoy ... some excitement... going to a game with anticipation and talking points for a few days after the game 

[cityfanlee23]

It's just sickening to know that I spent the best part of 6 months banging on about Danny Rohl, only for us to miss out on him by 1 week where we refused to pay for him to come, then went for Cifuentes days before Rohl left Wednesday on a free, Then ended up having to spend money sacking cifuentes and signing the likes of Carranza, Aribo, Ramsey on decent wages. 

Rohl has taken Rangers from 17 points from the top, and playing like a non league club, to now just 1 point from the title. We would not have been anywhere near this situation imo.

If you watch Div1 or Div2 games the playing surfaces are terrible compared to Championship/Premier league. 

But we play half our games on a Premier League surface. An advantage? Probably not.

Would King Power want another PR disaster? RM would be less popular than Cooper.

I'd hope not, I just have this horrible gut feeling though.

Russ Martin will want a championship, he has high opinion of himself. He may wait to see if De Zerbi sticks around at Tottenham go down.

What's the gain in an emerging promising newcomer when you can opt for 'Experience'?

He wants it and the opportunity to lead a rebuild.

[Winstonthedog]

Whoever it is .... it won't be announced anytime soon .... why give a new manager time to settle in, start to build a team and style of play .... instead wait until the first week in August and make all the same mistakes again ..... there has to be a case that king power are not fit and proper owners

Would a certain Mr Savage be in the mix......doing good things with Forest Green?

[winteriscoming]

Wouldn’t surprise me if we ended up with someone like Neil Critchley. 
Currently assistant to Gary O’Neil at Strasbourg. 
Has previous experience in league 1 with Blackpool.

True. 

 

Perhaps 2 systems needed? One for good pitches and one for bad. Imagine watching a Leicester team with a plan B 😂

I’d be gobsmacked if it isn’t Ben Wilkinson or Danny Walker

A screenshot shared by someone who knows him saying he'd like the call.

If Martin wants it, I think he’ll get it.

If you look at Leicester’s market behavior since Top took over, you can see there’s a pretty clear pattern in their managerial appointments at the start of seasons.

 

Basically, the club tends to go for:
• Managers in the 42–46 age range
• Experience in the Championship/Premier League or as a high-level assistant in England (like at the Manchester clubs)
• A preference for a back four (4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3)
• One interesting detail: all of them had already faced Leicester before, either as a manager or assistant
• And a career points per game average between 1.35 and 1.71

 

Filtering the market based on that and only considering managers who are currently available:
• Ruben Selles
• Michael Beale
• Lee Grant

Is he? I’m not sure he is especially considering their wages (highest wage bill in the division).

Cabellero and Vitiolli are more senior than Walker in Enzo’s staff.

 

I could see Walker fancying himself as a senior man, like BBM.

It needs to be someone with the middle name F***ing, a la NFP if we wanna take this seriously.

[JimJams]

Brian Kidd might get in some trouble with that moniker.
