League One - Who manages us?

[fox_favourite]

I was looking forward to having Dick, ah well

[cityfanlee23]

My instinct is to say "I don't believe that for a second" with the Ferguson rumours, but this is Leicester City. I think I'll just take a sabbatical if it's him.

Think to me these are the classic rumours- you get the fun names, then the controversial ones that people lose their heads about, then the eventual crap hire who is slightly better than the controversial ones

[lcfc_forever]

Feeling more positive with McCarron involved - we need a progressive manager who won't take sh*t from players, have a clear style of playing, likes developing young players and understands the modern football style of high levels of fitness and physicality. 

 

A few people are mentioning experience but our most important manager - Pearson - was relatively inexperienced. The key is they get the culture right at the club as it's been rotten since towards the end of Rodgers' time in charge.

He's not Rudkin! And Man City don't tend to hire fools.

It's worrying that it actually sounds realistic under this ownership, when you consider we ended up with sacked by QPR and sacked by Oxford this season.

Just anyone other than Rudkin at the day to day wheel is a positive!

Here are some options through an AI chat with Google Claude:

 

Eirik Horneland - hadn't heard of him but was linked with the Aberdeen role and there was this write-up: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cm2r7ryggpzo

Kevin Muscat 

Damien Duff

Will Still

 

Would add Fuchs as well, excited most by the idea of him or Duff as the potential manager. 

 

Need someone who'll bring discipline, reset the culture and get us pressing sides again, as well as bringing through the youth. 

[JimJams]

Davide Ancelotti after the WC?

 

Don't want him, just we've been linked before and he was sacked by Botafogo and has since joined his old man with the Brazil National team.

League 1 is the ****ing wilderness. Itll be someone we dont like or someone we've never heard of

Don’t think he’d be interested and we can’t wait - the appointment of Marti came too late, the fitness of the players was lacking and the club were playing catch up since.

I'd rather eat a human shit again than see us appoint Kevin Muscat

You need to stop doing this. I thought you'd learnt your lesson after Cooper, van Nistelrooy,  Cifuentes and Rowett. It's not healthy.

Again?? 

[Ian Nacho]

Mobray is the obvious choice for me. Got Blackburn out of League 1 and made them a steady Championship side. 

[Claudio Fannieri]

Wellens or Fuchs both have that Pearsonesque vibe think both would kick this clubs sorry ass back to something like it should be.

I’m not convinced with hiring ex players. 
Prime examples are King and Rowett. 
A Pearson type manager I think we should go for is imo Michael Duff.

Would easily be the closest I’ll come to not watching Leicester. I have genuine hatred for the bloke.

I'd have took Wellens after last season  ,struggled  abit this year but as with Fuchs ,it's going to be a gamble .We're  a league 1 club and the appointment  will reflect  that .

Unless Big Nige has shuffled off this mortal coil, i think Darren Ferguson might just be worth a punt

He'd probably be watching more games from the stands than in the dugout due to being suspended..
