Was thinking someone a bit more progressive than a protege of Samuel Allardyce
Nolan , Moyes & Pearce feel like they are cut from a similar cloth

You cant help liking the bloke came from a working class background worked as a electrician at one time and was more then the average full back in his time but listening to him on the radio well let say his very basic up along side Brooking when he use to be on it -bloody alfull.
Then again maybe we need his personalitly around the start on the season and you can be sure he will give more much more then Dicks ever could.

I heard Pearce on the radio just before 4am praising Sullivan and Brady for re-employing him. Looks like he will be on car wash duties soon.

I think any coaching team needs a variety of characters and voices and we do look very samey.
I’d quite like to see a younger recently retired player maybe in that mix or even (God forbid!) a FOREIGN young coach

Yes I have to agree. Moyes seems to be intent on taking us back to what worked for him 20 years ago. GS&B only want managers with a proven record because they are fools.
Playing at top level pro sports as a way to make a fast buck is their game. That makes them too scared to risk their precious millions on a younger manager on the way up.
But we will see more effort from the team. It won't necessarily be pretty but maybe more effective in the short term but where does WH go after Moyes?

With a bit of luck we can add a bit of steel to the side, we have appeared to been a bit of a soft touch in the past.

My main concern is the whole coaching team is now very Old Skool!
Has the modern game with it's pressing subtleties and nuancies that require coaching and analysis at the individual level with regards timing and positioning within a press, got too many intricacies for this old guard who were brought up on a more collective approach of hold the back line, get behind the ball, and step up on command?
Time will tell but I know where my suspicions lie.

I suspect the days of managers shouting at players, challenging them to a fight & inviting them to ‘bring your fucking dinner’ are all but gone.
To me a lot of recruitment of players is looking at their character and self motivation.
And avoiding moody fuckers who turn it in the first time something goes against them.
That’s probably a little too sophisticated for our club but might have weeded out players like Anderson & Haller before we paid £40m odd for each.

This thread is quite funny.
FWIW, I'd rather have Pearce as manager. Over Moyes. (Given David won't be around for long...)
With Pearce going bonkers every minute, West Ham United would NOT submit as we have done so awfully in the last disastrous 2 years.
COYi! We need some steel.

Avaram & Roeder where shit and we knew they were before we got them as manager.
The only person who rated Roeder was Joe Cole.

I liked Pardew and Bilic ..
Zola too as if he can get CC playing so well he gets a England call up , then he can't be all bad.

Good points but unless we are pro footballers ourselves we will never know how good a coach anyone employed by WH is.
All fans are influenced by what the media says about them. Pellegrini was a marvelous Championships winning coach and we've seen how that worked out.
Avram Grant took a team to Champions League finals and look how that worked out.
Gianfranco Zola and Glen Roeder were superb coaches and look how they did.
Curbishly was a fine coach but bored everyone rigid but he was effective. Same as Allardyce really.
Pardew and Bilic came as good young managers with records of success and great hopes but they never made it either did they?
Frankly, wankers at the top mean every manager is doomed to failure whatever way you describe them...
