The 28-year-old who never played professionally - who could land HUGE Premier League job | FourFourTwo Would be a gamble but if it pays off, we have the next manager to be raided by the Top 6 again. I'm definitely not old enough to have a Leicester manager who's younger than me. Not having it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Find the personal nastiness about him quite troubling too. For me it all hinges on how he would approach the role and how he want to set up, and our vision etc, and we won't hear any of that until an appointment is made. He played some honking stuff at Forest, especially this season. However, you have to appreciate that he would be coming into a very different setup here. If he impresses our board then so be it, but i don't think he should be getting the job based on his PL experience.

Yea I get it that’s fair enough - all opinions - the only one mentioned so far id take in front of him is potter - moyes is a solid second for me - both of them have serious prem experience and would do a great job in my opinion - I really struggle with quite a few of the other suggestions 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure most of the fan base would accept that. Depends if we went down on 37 points but was actually 45 points with an 8 point deduction. There might be enough goodwill that we were good enough for a mid table position without the deduction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good 90% of the criticisms of him were stupid af. I'd love to know how those people think David ****ing Moyes would have made football in the Championship exciting and entertaining (let alone winning) when the vast majority of teams in the league saw us coming and immediately parked the bus in their own six yard box for ninety minutes. And then the same ****ing people would moan about "messing around at the back" when the very reason Mads, Winks and Vestergaard pass it around at the back is to try and draw the opponent out so that we CAN counter and they CAN have their exciting fast attacks. Honestly, it doesn't take a student of tactics to work out what's happening on the pitch half the time but a lot of people are still too dense to work it out. If only we were all as smart as you eh Finners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, it doesn't take a student of tactics to work out what's happening on the pitch half the time but a lot of people are still too dense to work it out. I still can't get my head around it, but then I suppose i enjoyed more Enzo games than I disliked. Our drop in form was a horrible period, but I all the top teams in the Championship suffered similar fate over around that time. Liverpool had a horrible start to the 2022 season - it happens. What matters is how you come out the other side, which we did better than anyone else. There was a culture of waiting for him to mess up, both on the pitch and in his interviews. Every team has period of bad form, and we were banding around phrases like they were quick fixes (plan b's, just chuck 2 up top, play overlapping fullbacks) - all are valid, but not necessarily solutions. As soon as it wasn't always working for us, everything else all of a sudden became the 'right answer'. When it started working again, it was the players all of a sudden and the manager didn't deserve credit. Thing that really bugs me though - is the people saying 'i don't care how we win the league - just go and do it'. Then those people whinge about everything and anything! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More a resignation that its the sort of appointment we are likely to make. I'm still very unsure and would hope the club think about it very carefully. Brighton fans cracking me up, saying that rumours of Cooper are making them fall in love with Potter again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooper could really be the right type of character to really build a fighting, backs to the wall siege mentality that we're going to need next season. But Moyes may be able to spot (and attract) better options of players to get into the squad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
