Foluwashola Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Ashley's knowledge of football management stretches no farther than Tony Pulis. Of the pool of English jobbers we're liable to dip into, I'd be delighted with McClaren. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFCDoog Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 To be fair to Bruce, I hated him when he was at Sunderland but thats the only job hes really been shit at. Everywhere else he's done pretty well, I know Hull's form was shit at the end of last season, but the fact he kept them up and very nearly won the FA Cup negates all that. I think he'd be an improvement on Pardew, however if we have serious aspirations of being in the top 6 then he's not the man to do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 If we did turn out to be true, where would that leave Ben Arfa? Frozen out for ages, but finally gets a move to a club with a manger who actually wants him. Who immediately buggers off to where Hatem just escaped from. He would probably go on strike to get a move back here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancel the loan at Xmas, signs a new deal and 'Bruce is one of us banners' outside the stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sugoinufc Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I have 0 fate in Ashley appointing the right man. He will focus on who can work under his strict rules as a yes man rather than go for a manager that can excites/entertain us. I would love Moyes...not sure if realistic at all?

Andybiotics Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I reckon Sherwood would be a decent appointment. Had a good record with Spurs and always set his team out in a positive way. Barring a couple bad results against Benfica in Europe, I think he won a lot of games for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What job is Moyes realistically going to get? Reputation outside of England isn't great, here he's at most Tottenham or ironically Everton. We'd be a good fit for him under a different owner (which I know is what you are getting at) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Moyes' stock is at its lowest and he'd not require compensation. It must hurt to be an unemployed manager when the season goes on without you. Ashley has approached him before, right? It all makes sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest antz1uk Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 It isn't nice - it's a horrible Sunday morning for him and I find it very, very disrespectful that I'm linked with somebody else's job when he's still in a job. It's a hard enough job we've all got. We all know what it's like now in football management. That part of the game will never change, but for me at the moment I'm just concentrating on the game against West Ham (on Monday night) and leaving all that aside. blah blah, it's not nice, i;ve been there, it's disrespectful while he's still in a job. but yeah course i'd love the job..

He had about 6 months at a team that spent about a squillion pound with all his coaching staff in place, i've had my fill with cockney wide boys, just get Laudrup in Aye, he is almost as smug as Pardew tbf.

huss9 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 priority is to get someone in to sort out this abomination of a defence. slick attacking football can wait till next season. we need someone to come in and do what dalglish did in his first season after KK.

James Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Completely disagree with the need of a defensive manager, now is the time to address things long term. Objective 1 is to get some belief and confidence and positivity and team spirit back. Objective 2 is to get the players and team to reach their potential and push back up the league. With the structure the club have put in place, I still think a Director of Football is needed, trouble is to date it has been Wise and Kinnear, poor choices. I would appoint Chris Hughton as Director of Football Coaching and at the same time use him as an interim solution to get the team gelling and looking up, whilst a more long term appointment is being decided.

But he'd want far more input on the players we sign and I don't think he'd agree with our transfer policy. Just can't see it for that reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 The last thing we need is another defensively minded manager. If we are going to lose a game then I'm sure we'd all rather watch a 4-3 defeat rather than a 1-0 defeat (or the 4-0 defeats we often get). Hell, we might even win a game if we attacked. My wish list for a new manager: - Don't be negative b******. Be able to inspire confidence and belief in the players. Have a clue about tactics. Don't big up the opposition (no matter who the opposition are) before we play them. Before playing Sunderland don't say you hope they stay up. Bring in qualified coaches. I have my doubts about Moyes. Having said that, I have no idea who Ashley would go for. His main criteria for a new manager is probably getting someone he doesn't have to pay compensation for.
