WHUFC Who do you want to be our next manager?

Post Fauxstralian »

I know it’s hard to nominate when any decision would be made by the utter pillock Sullivan but …
I’d like to see us take a chance on a young English manager like Michael Carrick

O’Neill still has or did have fans support as they know Wolves had to sell players for FFP reasons.  He is tactically astute and will know they just need to sit deep, compact and counter to get in behind. They also have the excellent Cuhna who will have Kilman and Stavros on toast for pace ( assuming Todibo bust up is true).  

Draw on Monday at the most and continued indecision by Sullivan

This right there is the problem with West Ham United, it's not Lopetegui, he's a symptom, the real problem is that poisoned dwarf Mini Me, Sullivan. We'll never progress with that cսnt at the helm.

Gary O'Neil is going to be massively up for Monday, for obvious reasons. Yes, you can say so will Lop, but who would you back?

As even I guessed Alfs.  Sullivans way. Indecision, procrastinate and put off the inevitable and praying for Loppy to shit a miracle. It aint gonna happen. We would have seen more than one decent game up at Newcastle.  We’ve only played consistently we for 90 mins in that match imo. Even wins against Ipswich, Mancs and Palace were patchy with lots of goid fortune.

Any team conceding 2,3 or more so often is playing the wrong tactics for the players they have.  High line, advanced wing backs with no pace or “legs” in midfield.  Its so painfully obvious.  Actually its also been the Mancs problem so interesting to see how Amourim addresses it or not. They have a better squad  and options and are richer so will be worth watching.

Let the pain continue. We will struggle against Wolves with morale on the floor, Loppy having bust ups with players allegedly ( Todibo the latest). He will rearrange the “deckchairs on his Titanic” like tactical plan and selections to no avail.

Always wondered why Dev hadn't got a job in the higher Leagues and then read somewhere he didn't have the required coaching badges to manage certainly in the PL., 
Perfect number 2 then, even at his age he could show some of our overrated players up.

If I was Potter, or anyone to be honest, I'd take the job now because Wolves is a winnable game rather than wait till we have to face Man City and Liverpool.

The Mail and the BBC are now claiming that he hasn't been fired and will get at least one more game. Ridiculous decision.

Maybe this is why Lopetegui is staying for the Wolves game then?

Don't mind Carrick, he is English after all.

Just not sure I want a Geordie in charge.

Out of the current crop of names, I would prefer Carrick. A young, up and coming manager, liked by the supporters and respected by the players. It may not work, but rather take the chance with someone like this.

I think you'll find no other team would lose every other game for 2 seasons and keep their manager ffs. 
So you want us to win every game?
There's a long way between  winning every game and losing every other game... 
Not really? You said because we were losing every other game

Nothing to do with losing every other game over a 2 season spell, and letting in a ridiculous amount of goals last season including 5 away to Fulham and 6 at home to Arsenal, yeah it was just his shitty brand of football.

We get a manager that plays a posession (pointless) based game and we still play shit. Only really the leicester game we see the team dominate the opposition. Which is what some wanted.

I like Carrick but I can't see him tapping up a manager who's employed and Boro are doing OK.
