SUPERTOON

Add to the fact it must be a good 5/6 years since he last managed at club level and his teams awful defensive records

I’m far more willing to give someone like him a go rather than Lampard or Martinez

The article says fonseca interviewed poorly at Spurs but wasn’t he given the job till Spurs changed terms jsut before he signed ?

Emery has a fantastic record in Spain and was harshly treated by Arsenal

I think Emery would be an excellent choice to first keep us up and then push us up the table next season

Says reservations about them both Think Emery would be a decent option tbf

His press conference tomorrow (if he makes it to 1:30pm) will be an entertaining watch ?

Agreed with the patience it’s just because it’s Bruce really and I don’t trust him at all ?

No I’m saying we need a decision pretty sharp which I think is a fair assessment based on our position and form. I’m also assuming that Bruce is here until a replacement is in so if they aren’t anywhere close to the decision making stage then I think it’s a fair assumption Bruce will still be here at least another game after Sunday.

So would you be comfortable sticking with Bruce another month if they still can’t decide a new manager ?

I appreciate everyone saying it takes time and they haven’t been here long but we are going to have to get to the decision making stage sharpish or we will be cut adrift at the bottom

Only way it would work would be Rangnick and then he becomes sporting director in the summer. Unlikely to happen though

Roy hodgson is available

Caulkin the other day said there is no chance of Rangnick coming so can rule him out

Surely Favre fits the bill

It’s a safer bet than Lampard unless it’s big Sam ?

Be surprised if he took an interim role although it would give him a chance to shine

That sounds like exactly what we need

I don’t see how they could go from having Benitez lined up last year to Lampard this year? I know rafa isn’t available but it’s a completely different approach regardless

I’d be so underwhelmed if it was him.

Was it Caulkin who pretty much said we are definitely not getting Rangnick?

Would be surprised if anyone like that is there tbh as they will know the media will be on the lookout

The start time being pushed back a few hours till half one is interesting. More than likely it’s to spend the extra 3 hours briefing him on what he can and can’t say. I fully expect him to come out and sound as those he believes he has a chance at staying on as well fwiw.

I’m all in on Favre based on what I have read on here and some of the articles I have seen. My number one choice is still Conte and him not officially ruling himself out gives me hope it’s possible. He was linked with Arsenal about 6 weeks back and came straight out to deny that, he’s been linked with us for a week now and still hasn’t. Still a long shot I know but it would be such a statement and match with the ambition the consortium spoke about last week.
