cityfanlee23 Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May I put a bigger list at the start but I think right now my priorities would be (In no particular order): Urs Fischer Moyes Corberan Franck Haise Laurent Blanc (unlikely) Lucien Favre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, we won't see a useful penny of any 'compensation'. It'll be used to pay down debt. When you travel the country watching the most dull, uninspiring turd that guy serves up, winning goes out of the window. Yes it's all stats and results for the current crop of stat obsessed managers. But we're fans, we want to watch entertainment, we want to see excitement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliFOXnia Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May Not sure why anyone in their right mind would take the job, however, if by some miracle we can make it happen it has to be Graham Potter for me. We might need a magic wand and a couple of spells to convince him though.. 🧙♂️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzy_Jeff Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May Potter is the dream imo - from the midlands which may help but would take a lot to convince him due to our financial situation and probable points deduction. Rob Edward’s might be tempted. Was impressed with him last season, may again depend on how we can sell it to him and how emotionally attached he is at Luton. Aside from them I would go Cooper, Carrick or Robins. Think they would all roll their sleeves up and be up for a scrap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Fox Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May We need stability and someone who will work with a sensible budget but recognise that primary job is to keep us up next season and then build - genuinely don’t think EM would have had a chance here next season as he is wed to one way and whilst that is admirable our players struggled to adapt in the championship and the next step is huge. pragmatism suggests a David Moyes who brings a huge wealth of experience and kept an Everton side up for years and also turned the hammers into a decent side - if we could attract him I would definitely go for him - he knows this division like the back of his hand and with Nolan would bring the squad together and wheel and deal fantastically - Bowen, Paqueta were jewels he found and whilst his football can be mediocre he will get results and I think he will be really motivated for one last gig and sticking it up the hammers will drive him! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityfanlee23 Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May (edited) If we could afford to buyout another manager using the Enzo money, I truly believe Andoni Iraola will be one of the best "young" managers in Europe in the coming years and is guaranteed a big club in the next few seasons. Rocky start at Bournemouth but they improved massively. Edited 27 May by cityfanlee23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? The legend of 'Mou' is over. A total had been now - more stubborn than Enzo and incredibly limited success recently with the resources available to him.

Popular Post Hirsty The Blue 94 Posted 27 May Popular Post Share Posted 27 May Don't get the snobbery towards Moyes at all. We're going to need someone who knows how what this league is all about, not somebody learning on the job. His style of football is complaints from West Ham are standard West Ham fans, not the West Ham way, which for the last 20 years has been yo-yoing between the leagues, Moyes is the only bloke who has steadied the ship, got them into Europe 3 times and won a European trophy, all more to his CV than the likes of Corberan, Carrick, Potter etc. Think we either have 2 options, almost accept our fate is relegation and go for someone who will stick around for a rebuild in the Championship, or try get someone in who could keep us up and steady the ship for a few turbulent years to give us a platform to build. 12 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. Moyes would be a solid appointment, but not an exciting one. The likelihood is, however, that we’ll start with a points deduction, not much money to spend and be fighting to stay up. A pragmatic manager might just be what we need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STUHILL Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May Never liked Moyes, but even I can respect what he has done over his career, and he would be a decent appointment for where we are now. I'd prefer someone else though, but would feel confident of staying up with a Moyes in control. Ugh, still feels a bit yucky saying that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
