Ben Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Any chance someone can suggest a manager that would come and build the club from scratch so I can stop thinking that bloke is Rafa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good DoF should be doing some of that tbf, I think maybe we got hung up on Rafa's dedication just because we didn't have one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 That's why my vote would be Ralf Rangnick, succeeded by whomever Rangnick chooses while he moves upstairs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 So annoying that we have missed these managers by a couple of months. That's why an interim might work, because we can wait for the right man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather not make rash decisions based on short term thinking, overhauling the football side of this is not going to happen overnight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toon No9 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) Don't think we're gonna get a world class manager at this point. Our squad is too poor, bad position in the league and awfull training facilities. Important to get a manager in now who can organise the team. Someone who is tactically good. A manager who can save us this season and start building a team for the future. I mean just look at Frank at Brentford, Potter at Brighton, what Howe did at Bournemouth(before relegation) and so on... Doesn't have to be a big name to get us to the next level. Must be many like thoose out there. Maybe someone like Kasper Hjulmand, who is doing great with the danish national team? They are well organised and play attacking football.

Yeah could easily take us down, he's not going to have Chelsea's superstars to work with here. Can't see him getting much of a tune out of Ritchie or Hendrick.

the fella Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Challenging for top 6 spots and trophies is a long term aim, probably a three stage process. Stage 1 is staying up this season and people like Potter can do that. Get Jose at stage 3 when we consolidate to a top 7 team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Whoever comes in has a massive job on his hands. These players look like they've been on holiday since May.

Ashley and Bruce have left us in a position where I don't think we will get a manager of the level required, and I'm not convinced players of any quality will come either if our position doesn't improve come January. I know anyone is an improvement on Bruce, but does anyone really think the likes of Emery will be enticed by our current position. I really hope we're both wrong.
