That's the reason why I wouldn't want him anywhere near us but it really is crazy what one job can do for someone's reputation. I remember seeing Forest appoint Hughton and thinking that he may be the man to eventually get them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what about his time at Derby, in the championship, the league we are now in? He also had good cup runs, in both the FA cup and carabao whilst at derby. Cambiasso has made a few nice posts about leicester on instagram though, so certainly more qualified A few Derby fans might contend that with what he'd got that particular year, he should have done better. Compare how he did compared to Rooney and who he had and also had to contend with, despite relegation, I know which one I'd sooner have in the Championship! Cambiasso has more gravitas and almost an aura around him. Lampard and Gerrard were undoubtedly quality players, both of whom I used to enjoy watching but, neither for me personally, as players, come close to one of the most decorated players in the game. My only doubt about Cambiasso would be whether he'd be able to force his demanding standards upon some of today's flakey young players. Sometimes some such managers expect others to be as good and committed as they were. As for your comment about Cambiasso's being less qualified, you must surely know that the Championship and even the Premiership has been littered with successful managers who had never previously experienced our leagues as player or manager. Pep, Klopp and Frank aren't too shabby. Edited 5 June 2023 by volpeazzurro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spudulike Posted 5 June 2023 Share Posted 5 June 2023 Not heard much talk about Nuno. Quick search shows him managing in Saudi. Has to be better than some of the other potential candidates and knows the league. Worth a shout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerrrFox Posted 5 June 2023 Share Posted 5 June 2023 There’s a rumour doing the rounds that Potter has to forfeit a chunk of his Chelsea compensation if he takes another Premier League job this season. Could be why he’s considering dropping down to us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got out of the Championship with a team that was way too good for the Championship and with that weird agent/club deal they had that brought Moutinho/Neves etc over to the club. We need someone who can mould the squad and impose themselves on the team to play how they want them to. First season down we're a big fish in a small pond but only for a year until we're just one of the other big boys down there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 5 June 2023 Share Posted 5 June 2023 Just been mulling over Cambiasso coming in and I've got the dream team. He played under Paulo Bento at Olympiakos. He's available, they come in as a pair, either Esteban as his number 2 or vice versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravel Posted 5 June 2023 Share Posted 5 June 2023 I think a few potential managers, including Potter are keen their options open with what's going on at Celtic. Don't think we'll appoint anyone until that's sorted. Unless we put both feet in and sign Stevie G of course ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s one of the main reasons he didn’t extend his stay. A few years ago he was very critical of Claudio and I think even said he was one of the worst managers he played under. So I doubt that would happen. Edited 5 June 2023 by Pliskin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you will find a single derby supporter who wasn't happy with the way that season went. Doesn't really matter how good of a player Cambiasso was, his only managerial experience is as an assistant manager at Colombia. If he hadn't played for us and he was actually rumoured to be coming here, the entire fanbase would be in uproar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Yuki! Posted 5 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 5 June 2023 I might be completely off the mark here.. but was reading the other day that there is a delay in Russell Martin joining/being announced by Southampton as there is a clause in his contract which would mean Southampton would have to pay more money for his services if they were a Premier League club rather than a Championship club. So they are waiting until the date where they are officially classed as a Championship club (not sure when this could be?) to save considerable £ Could we have already agreed with Potter that he will become our manager? But there is something similar which means he gets more money/we pay less if we wait until we are officially classed as a championship club? I could be miles off… but just a thought 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john ridley Posted 5 June 2023 Share Posted 5 June 2023 (edited) Would of thought we're officially a championship club end of June?when contracts run out ,could be wrong though. Edited 5 June 2023 by john ridley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
