I absolutely do not want Cooper.
A one way trip to the lower leagues!
Swansea were clueless in the play off final and he did nothing to change things.
Worse than Roy!

Ismael - relegation
Nuno - not convinced/will go elsewhere
Dyche - was he EVER in the frame? Signing new contract
Howe - No, waiting for Soton job, apparently
Fonseca - Non starter(imo)
Lampard - NO Just to shut 'dazza' up
Roy - Seriously?
Dougie - Far more likely, but hope not

So, Tin Hats on . . . Crack on peeps, fill ya boots

Ismael remains, and always has been, my first choice for the role. I think what he did last season with Barnsley was sensational and is exactly what we need in the next campaign.

Sounds like he had them battling, which we lacked at times last year, and made them a nightmare to play against with a really high press. I read one article that said they won the ball back in the opposition half 5% more than the league average. Would make a nice change from just sitting back on the edge of our box anyway.

Wolves has (albeit not publicly announced) but your point is sound. A delay is understandable to an extent but the world and his dog knew months ago Roy would not be with us come August. Mind you if an appointment was made on day one then we would have not had a chance for NES. Ancelotti has really thrown a spanner in the works! Mind you if it goes another week without news I will begin to feel anxious.

Celtic and Spurs have been looking for a manager for months and still not found the right person, so why should we appoint the first person to come along.

I was replying to The Dolphin, where he stated he didnt want him, coz if we did would result in relegation. I echo that.

Their back four played near the halfway line.Had we played that way with our "Dad's Army" defence we would have been relegated !

Barnsley were a young side,Brittain right back 22,another full-back Williams 21. Centre-backs Andersen and Sibbick 23 and 21, another central defender Helik 25.
In midfield Styles 20, Palmer 21,Kane 22, Thomas 21.The oldest player in midfield 27.
Strikers Dike 20,Adeboyejo 22, Chaplin 23.Oldest striker Woodrow 26.

Yes but this is why we should get him in. The way he played suits younger players down to the ground, it will suit our academy down to the ground. He will require reinforcements for sure, but it won't cost a king's ransom.

 


We're the Arthur over ere!

I will reiterate though, the vitriol thrown at Steve Cooper is ridiculous. You can have reservations over his time in management & it's certainly a concern but he has done very well at Swansea on a budget of -£48m, losing their best players & getting play-offs two years in a row. His record is better than Graham Potters in almost every regard & he also conceded far less goals than Potter.

Sure, I'm touting him as a manager for next season though, not last season. As you know a squad rebuild is mandatory, not optional, this season and that must include a couple of new centre-backs. If we end up with Dann and Cahill at the back again we're screwed whoever is in charge.
