cityfanlee23 Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 You are the owners, Nigel Pearson has stormed out of the club after altercations with fans, You can pick ANYBODY outside of the top 8 in Any League to manage Leicester city, You're offering a 5 year contract. Who would it be? You have 3 candidates, Who are they? and who would you ultimately choose? Roberto Martinez Jurgen Klopp David Moyes Proven at premier league level with Everton, rebuilding their youth academy almost from scratch, with small budgets. Had a torrid time at united, in what was a harder league last season, unfortunately not being able to attract the biggest players in the world and ultimately signed arguably their best player of current in fellaini. The fans made it difficult from the start and the players made it even more difficult, so i'm willing to forget his time there, Gone to Real Sociedad and is already a fans favorite having started to turn their fortunes around, not only in league position with arguably a better club than their league position stated, but also their style of play. He's definitely still one of the best young managers on the map and would take us forward. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uq03qbNO870
cityfanlee23 Posted 19 February 2015 Author Posted 19 February 2015 Dyche - not even joking. Thats fair, I wouldn't take him instead of anyone in the top 8 given the choice, but i'd have him over nigel, Why would you have him?
CosbehFox Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Dyche - not even joking. I can see why you are saying it - but do you think he can achieve the same at Burnley at a club where there's an expectation? He certainly plays the role of underdog very well. In fact having spoke to someone who works at the club, it is virtually everywhere around the club that Burnley are constantly fighting a battle and overachieving.
Jaspa Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Dyche - not even joking. Maybe if he grew his sharpened sideburns into full ginger mutton chops. Could you imagine on weekends weve been beaten by smaller teams and he comes out with stuff like pound shop leaders and we cant compete with the Dagenhams of this world because kids grow up there locally.

Well we're last and the only expectation everybody seems to have is that of relegation
Guest Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Tony Pulis Martin O'Neill Eddie Howe I'd take Pulis. It's unrealistic though given he's just taken a job.
Gubbins Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 There actually isn't anyone in that bracket who could keep us up at this point however I'd take virtually all of the premier league ones over Pearson.
shailen Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Offering a five year contract is suicide in modern football. I just hope in this hypothetical situation if we offered anyone that long of a contract we stick by that man even if we are in a difficult situation. Out of the three you mentioned, Moyes for me, knows how to keep a tight defence.
cityfanlee23 Posted 19 February 2015 Author Posted 19 February 2015 Quite obviously you pick Mourinho. He may be a complete **** but he is the best out there by a distance and the only one who could possibly save us in our current situation. did you read the post? There's always one Offering a five year contract is suicide in modern football. I just hope in this hypothetical situation if we offered anyone that long of a contract we stick by that man even if we are in a difficult situation. Out of the three you mentioned, Moyes for me, knows how to keep a tight defence. Yeah the 5 year contract was to get people to look at a more long term scenario for the better of the club
Gubbins Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 did you read the post? There's always one D'oh!!!
Guest Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Holloway Levein, Taylor or Allen.. What's Rob Kelly up to these days?
Brenfox Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Levein, Taylor or Allen.. What's Rob Kelly up to these days? Still redoubling his efforts.
Guest Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Still redoubling his efforts. Ha. Imagine Micky Adams is still referring to himself in the third person @ Tranmere

indierich06 Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 I don't have to imagine anything - there's about thirty other ****ing threads discussing who should be our new manager.
cityfanlee23 Posted 19 February 2015 Author Posted 19 February 2015 I don't have to imagine anything - there's about thirty other ****ing threads discussing who should be our new manager. Why did you decide to come on this one and post boring drivel then? It's a bit of fun, if you don't want to join in, you know where to go....
cullenfox Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Three candidates for me would be Martin O' Neill, Mick McCarthy and Michael Laudraup. Of those I'd want O' Neill the most.
cityfanlee23 Posted 19 February 2015 Author Posted 19 February 2015 Three candidates for me would be Martin O' Neill, Mick McCarthy and Michael Laudraup. Of those I'd want O' Neill the most. McCarthy and Laudraup are managing a top 8 club....
Babylon Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Why did you decide to come on this one and post boring drivel then? I'd imagine because the title says "just imagine", rather than "another who shall we have as our next manager thread".
cityfanlee23 Posted 19 February 2015 Author Posted 19 February 2015 I'd imagine because the title says "just imagine", rather than "another who shall we have as our next manager thread". It will warranted him wasting even more time by explaining to me the fact he thinks it's a pointless thread?? Counter productive...
