He hasn't been hanging aboutveither, he's been doing the work he is paid to do by Premier Sports. I wouldn't want him but if you don't think he'd be a favourite for the job you'd be off your head imo, yeah they'll be plenty candidates but he'll be major one.

Guest Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 In terms of managers, whoever follows Gerrard will find it a very tough job. GVB is the most natural in terms of he has his teams play similarly to how we do currently, but he has the same shortcomings as a manager that Gerrard currently has (inability to change a game with subs, reluctance to try different formations or tactics). If we're going fanciful names we have next to no chance of getting, I'll say Valverde. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
superallysbears 7,580 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I think if we make the champions League and say Gerrard went in the summer then we'd have more scope for a manager, but say he leaves next week for talking sake, we'd be limited to who we could achieve in the short term.

However if he did go I’d hope our list looked a bit like this Fonseca Dean Smith Wilder Lampard Van Bronckhorst Don’t think any of them are out with our reach and I think they’d all do well.  I don’t really think I trust the board to come up with a list like that, it’ll probably be more like  Callum Davidson Neil Warnock Gattuso Garry Monk Jack Ross I'd be furious if it was Wilder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,775 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 The Denmark manager would be high on my shortlist too.  His side had a great blend of technical ability and rolling your sleeves up and grafting at the Euros.

The Specky Forum Organiser 64,524 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Some of the names mentioned here are mental. Obviously we can't attract the top managers or even the ones below that like Fonseca or Favre but there's no reason why we couldn't get someone in the tier below that. From an outsiders point of view we have a great squad(in context), we are reigning champions and favourites to win it again, you'll have a good chance of Champions League football with minimum being Europa League and as has already been shown it's a perfect shop window for the richest league in the world that's just down the road. There will be managers doing a good job currently all over Europe who would jump at the chance to manage us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
