Next Manager Discussion Thread

You've got to be kidding about Jack new deal.

 

[Don81 2,875]

Has to be Dyche for me , the main problem with our squad and club is mentality and he's the only one I see mentioned who cab change that bar maybe Muscat at a push.

I’d be gutted if it was Beale

We'll be doing this again the same time next year if we appointed Beale.

Knutsen might have done well over a couple of seasons with glimt but I can’t think of any manager of any other club our support have had a hardon for when his last season is, let’s face it and absolute fucking disaster. Even some of the results that season in Europe were a disgrace.

but Rangers fans desperate for a manager who’s biggest job is at glimt and until glimt had done nothing in his life in a 20 year career, his team plays at the artic circle and have a plastic pitch which makes livis look like the emirates, has just finished a country mile behind in the Norwegian league and yet here we are he’s this time rounds version of preuedhomme or whatever the fuck he was called 

I don't understand this thinking, basically we need to get a manager who is continually winning and hasn't had a poor season? Who the hell would that be then.

Would like it to be Dyche but, with a handful of managerial changes on the horizon in the EPL, he’ll fancy himself to have a job in England by the end of the year. Probably Everton. 

[Johnnyem 233]

All these managers being mentioned are obviously queueing up, and just dying to join Rangers aren't they?

It wasn't that long ago that the biggest percentage of our support were clamouring for Gio to join us. So, what do we know?

[STEPPS BOY 77,711]

Get a new manager in, let him settle to end of season. Try win both cups and fight back in league.

The main thing is that we see a style and he stamps his authority on the team so that we all buy into it.

[Laudrupsleftfoot 12,320]

I really don't want someone with an approach to football like Dyche, but if it's between him and Knutsen, Muscat, Nielson, Martin etc. then it really has to be him.

Just in terms of his personality if nothing else.

If it's not Dyche, will be astounded if it's someone who excites the support.

No we need a manager who like gerrard can conmand respect.

knutsen has done well with glimt to deny that would be daft but he manages a team from a place at the arctic circle who play well at home on a plastic pitch that’s atrocious. 
 

Until glimt he had a very uninspiring CV, Pedro was probably more qualified and he was a disaster

 

every manager will be a risk but this screams high risk to me

As much as i would quite like a Knutsen or Hassenhutl type manager it takes money to get the team required, as seen by the Tims spending £45 million in a year to get the necessary team. I think Beale would be a step back and Dyche would be incredibly boring and unlikely we would be able to get him.

We are in such a sorry state atm.

Exactly, at what point in your life would you see a clamour for a manager who has his team almost 20 points behind in the Norwegian premier league and guided his side to a 1 0 loss at linfield, a 3 1 loss in which bodo were very lucky to sneak through ( @johanvanhentzecan confirm) vs KI in the faroes and an absolute hammering by Zagreb.

 

when would a Rangers support ever demand that this is the direction we are going down? 

KÍ were unlucky not to go through, actually.. 3 (or maybe 2?) penalties were the difference. They played very pretty football, but the Faroese champions took them all the way. Incidently.. KÍ Klaksvík (population 5000) are linked with Brian Laudrup as Manager.. crazy rumours going round up here. Mikkjal (KÍ Manager) went to the Norwegian 2nd div.

Have we discussed Kevin Muscat yet?

He has just won the j league and has won trophies in Australia.
 

He would also know how to go toe to toe with postecoglu.

I just think that the board would be thinking that it basically just looks like we are copying what they did.

 

It is an interesting shout though.

They spent around £20m last season and won a double.

Obviously the salaries on offer in the epl will be a big pull for any manager. I suppose it depends how serious Dyche is about trying to change how he is perceived as a manager. The new big Sam type keeping teams up or one pushing for trophies.

[CoplandStandBear 995]

Dyche did take Burnley to 7th in the Premier League and managed in the toughest league in the world for a long time so he could understand the pressure a job like Rangers would come with.  I've seen he had a 5% clause in his contract for developing players which might be worth looking at if he commanded wages that were too high.  Muscat and Knutsen are more of a trip into the unknown and Dyche seems more of a safe bet as you know he'll settle and get the team working hard and organised.

I’m not 100% sure johan. Iirc when he was the Melbourne victory manager his tactics were to attack. im just reading this…. https://totalfootballanalysis.com/team-analysis/yokohama-f-marinos-2022-their-tactics-this-season-scout-report-tactical-analysis-tactics.

Muscat was linked when gerrard left was he not?!

[kelvd1873 7,677]

I don’t care who comes In but who we it is I want to them to play attacking entertaining football. I couldn’t give a fuck if we lose 2,3 goals a game as long as we score 5. 

[BlueSuedeSambas 56,486]

Muscat had a job in Belgium and got sacked after 5-6 months.
