jdckelly Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Damian Spellman @DamianSpellman 3m3 minutes ago Cramlington, England Steve McClaren sacked by Derby. Was told today not to assume he'd be heading straight up the A1 to #nufc if that proved to be the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Will sit on the fence if it is McClaren, but I would be interested to see how it works out. McClaren played quite attacking football with Derby/Twente, didn't he? I'd rather take a punt on getting Moyes over from Spain. Can't say I'm a fan of trying to bring in an unknown foreign manager based on the fact that they played attacking football in leagues of lower standards.

Wallace Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Wonder if he's been put on gardening leave because of the compensation issues meaning he can't get another job for a specific period of time. Therefore Carver gets the job until he is available?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The evidence of the Premier League table is that if you have any interest in being vaguely successful, do not get yourself an English manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say anybody was? I just said that my preferred choice would not be somebody who otherwise is unknown (ie, the links that have been to us/bookies betting; Garde, Galtier, Tuchel, Gourvennec). And also with regards to other teams doing the same (Leeds this season, Watford (although successfully eventually). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 First reaction - gutted. Second reaction - he's not Carver. We should do a lot better but I'm still fearing the worst, so appointing an actual manager is a start. I know Derby collapsed but their squad isn't particularly good, so 8th is about right. Then again, why would Derby sack him if they know we're sniffing around? Missing out on compo AND they've had to pay him off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 No thanks! I'd be willing to risk a foreign manager playing attacking and pressing footie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never class Moyes as an "unknown foreign manager" due to 6 months managing a team in Spain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 In isolation he is a good coach and a decent manager, but if we were to appoint him, he would be totally underwhelming. We need a fresh start, someone exciting etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unproven in the Premier League as a manager means basically nothing. Pochettino, Koeman, Laudrup all came in seamlessly, as well as bigger names like Pellegrini.

Unproven in the Premier League as a manager means basically nothing. Pochettino, Koeman, Laudrup all came in seamlessly, as well as bigger names like Pellegrini. Koeman and Laurdrup were not unknown managers though and had successful stints are reasonable clubs. A lot of the managers linked to us have either only managed one team/had little success other than a midtable finish on a tight budget. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say so, how many times do you think Wikipedia was used when Garde was first linked to us? And time will tell on how well Tuchel gets on at Dortmund.
