Ranieri, you must be joking. He kept the style of play created under Pearson and won the 5000/1 pot. Then threw money out of window and tried to change playing pattern. Result? Most of the newcomers not good enough, the club heading for relegation till they went back to their winning formula again. Foreigner OK, but please no Mr Tinkelman. Not sure about high-so manager like Mancini either.... But he did sign Kante for a paltry £5.6 Mill and he of course was hugely influential in Leicester's League Championship success.

As managers normally take their back room staff with them to another club, and as SA won't be doing that, why not just keep the staff as it is? The back room staff now would be able to keep the SA philosophy that brought the success in the 2nd half of his tenure, keep the training methods, nutrition and work ethics that have been set. So maybe a left field suggestion, but why not leave it with Sammy Lee at the helm? I imagine he would have been speaking at length with SA regarding team selection and tactics, has worked under SA for years and it would then not be a big change. An issue I would see could be attracting players without a name in charge. Because he has almost no experience as a manager and his record, when he did have a go at Bolton, was tragic. There's nothing to suggest he's anything other than a very good Lieutenant, but a General he ain't. "An issue I would see" would be needing a Pulis/Allardyce by Christmas.

I'm amazed 1% have gone for Hodgson. He'd have Benteke taking corners and wide free kicks. I'd be extremely disappointed if he was our next manager. I'd add Lucien Favre to this list (as others have mentioned). Also Pascal Dupraz from Toulouse. Done a good job with very small teams in Ligue 1 with no money and still reasonably young for a manager.

If SL takes the training sessions, works with the players on a daily basis and keeps the backroom staff that have been part of the turnaround - why do you need a general? So why not a Director of Football and SL as coach?

Whoever comes in, I hope they stick to giving some youngsters a go pre season like Sam was planning to. I'd like to maybe Kirby and Dreher get a go and see what they can do Totally agree with you. Maybe Jokanovic is who we need as he certanly wasn't afraid to give the youngsters a chance at Fulham, albeit in the Championship. You never know, maybe if we got him he could persuade Sessegnon to come as well.

He''d probably get the best out of Zeki Friar. if he answers christian (benteke's) prayers . For the good of the Ward and the Parish. To the Palace Pilgrimage and King Arthur (waite). before the board of directors blessing, i would expect him to keep a vow of silence. No problem, he has the habit. i'll get me cloak.

Football isn't black and white and I stand 100% by the statement that he hasn't done what Eddie Howe has done at Bournemouth. Eddie Howe has built something that is quite brilliant at Bournemouth in my opinion, from pretty much nowhere. Monk took an already very well respected team at the time to 8th (which is good) but he inherited a lot more and then was dog s*** the season after. People keep saying that Leeds aren't anything special but they're a fairly big club and have some very good young players and he hasn't done that amazingly there either. He's no Eddie Howe at all. Eddie Howe has spent an awful lot of money though in his time at Bournemouth. Leeds being a big club is irrelevant, they've been s***e for a few seasons now until Monk came in? I'm not saying he's amazing, but I think the idea that there is a massive gulf between the two isn't correct in my opinion. Howe may be a better manager, certainly more experienced, but I think the gap between the two is closer than a lot of people assume.
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

Has an excellent reputation in Spain. What about: Roger Schmidt, Eduardo Berizzo, Martin Schmidt, or Christian Streich? All have done a good job at clubs similar to ours. Mind you, I didn't want Allardyce and I was wrong on that. Roger Schmidt - bad manager. Got sacked by Leverkusen because they were awful Martin Schmidt - no thanks, nearly went down with Mainz, not good enough Christian Streich - will never leave Freiburg, besides he's just qualified for Europe with them

Roger Schmidt: Wasn't that after two decent seasons? He was there almost three years, I don't think they were s*** the whole time. Martin Schmidt saved Mainz from getting relegated in his first season, got them to sixth and Europe in his second, then did poorly in his last season. He also had a good record with their youth team prior to taking over. As for the last, fair enough. Edited by NickinOX (26 May 2017 4.28pm)
