Regardless of the incredible job he's done, I can see the headlines now... not what we want. Gary Monk is never in a million years going to leave Leeds right now and he's no different in style to Gary Rowett who is available but is not interested (amazingly). If Frank De Boer falls through then Henning Berg is the guy. Still no interim manager announced, I feel Eck isn't enamoured by the 4 month stint.

pcbear 10,913 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 My mate is a big Leeds fan from London, I was in his timber yard today and said I heard a whisper that Rangers were after Monk, he said your welcome to him I would take Warburton any day of the week, which surprised me.

6superbarry6 14,141 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Id rather go for a foreign manager tbh we need to get away from signing British players as the only ones we can afford are pish,an experienced foreign manager with good knowledge of European leagues is what's needed Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsden bear 2,376 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Heard a bit about Huddersfield FC on the Radio (their Chairman i think)and apparently they have a Manager from the 2nd tier Bundesliga League. anyway they are doing great in the Championship with this German bloke and he has brought in a ton of players from the German Leagues for next to nothing. Maybe this is the kinda thing we should be thinking about - the market here is heavily over inflated and we arent exactly flush right now!!

Wagner looked after Dortmunds ressies so a few leagues lower than that. Been saying it since last week, go out and look about you'll find plenty of managers on the continent who have done a good job and deserve a chance. They won't, we will end up with pish like Alex McLeish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.A.I 36,183 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Doing great in the Championship should mean very little - Warburton almost got Brentford promoted look at the bigger picture of who you want - their profile, experience everything Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managers have a notoriously short shelf life in the championship and it's such a competitive league that a managers stock can go from sky high to rock bottom in the space of a few months.

Aye in the past ten years you've even seen guys like Dave Jones, Glenn Roeder, Phil Brown, Peter Reid, John Gregory all have that outstanding season (sometimes 2) ... it's a strange league in that people can peak. We need to think long and hard about this appointment and Monk because he's had a good 6 months at Leeds, Young and fresh faced isn't really standing out for me. Some of that is my gut feeling too as I said Rowett wouldn't be a bad appointment (even if he's not my first choice) there's just a little more about him from what my gut tells me Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of that is my gut feeling too as I said Rowett wouldn't be a bad appointment (even if he's not my first choice) there's just a little more about him from what my gut tells me I think that it's all fine and well coming out with names like Wagner, Monk and that Heckenbottom because they are doing well at small clubs, but moving up to us is a completely different animal. We've just seen first hand with Warburton (who I fully believe would still be getting plaudits for what he's done this season if he had been achieving it at a smaller club) how the things managers implement and earn plaudits for at these smaller, more marginal clubs, don't easily transition to a club where winning every week is all that matters. For me it has to be somebody who's older because we are going to try and catch celtic on a fraction of their budget and I don't believe a younger manager has the experience needed to do that. I'd rather we just got an experienced manager in rather than try this DOF and head coach thing. To me that just reeks of the latest 'throw something at the wall in the hope it sticks' move of the board. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
