Di Matteo is a good shout. Mark Hughes would be great, but unlikely. Dave Jones is decent at that level. I rate Karl Robinson at MK Dons highly, not sure if he is right for Leicester though
Who's currently your best player then.. in your IMO? Also Paul Gallerghar(sp).. isn't he a winger/forward? Is he injured?
The owners want a big name so it doesn't matter about lower league managers despite their being good managers there. The owners won't be interested
I would say David Nugent or Richie Wellens Nugent looks like he did when he played for Preston and Wellens is class
Karl Robinson and Lee Clark both seem dark horses with the bookies, both talented young managers, could be a bit of a risk for us and pressure would be on them, but you don't prove yourself until you try it so one of those may be a risk worth taking. Honestly though I think it's very unlikely they are under consideration from our owners.
Lee Clark is doing class even though he seems like a twat lol. I saw Shearer was one of the favourites, not sure what price he was. He a big name lol - wonder if it is him
Wouldn't want Shearer here as he has no experience apart from taking Newcastle down although it was already a sinking ship Plus what happen with him and Neil Lennon here
Yeah, I was just thinking of it as he is a big name. I tell you the perfect man for the job - Gianfranco Zola!!
I really don't think Alan Shearer is ever going to return to management - he looks far too comfortable on the MOTD sofa to me.
I have a funny feeling about Zola. I want MON but can't see it happening and then Mark Hughes would be next on my list
Dave Nugent has been a class act so far, Kasper Schmeichel has been impressive too and Sol Bamba is an absolute beast at the back, apart from the odd loss of concentration or rash tackle in the box. Another problem with Sven is whilst we have some quality players for this level, they are mostly underperforming. Beckford should be able to score goals at this level but has been a disgrace so far, both in quality and attitude. Wellens and King were our best performers last season should be tearing the league a new one in midfield, but have all been pants. Similarly Johnson has just come back to fitness but whether he is fully fit is questionnable because he hasn't looked it to me. He should be the best player in our squad. As for Gallagher, he's yet another who wasn't performing to his best this season, then he got injured last month and is only just coming back. We played him out wide in a front 3 last season and before that Pearson played him out wide in a midfield 4 but in truth he's not a natural winger, he's more of an attacking midfielder as he lacks pace and rarely skins anyone, but give him any space and he's got one of the most accurate right foots in the league. I'd love to have him back to his best as he's pretty much the only midfielder who will shoot!
I'm sure the bookies just throw names like Bryan Robson, Steve McClaren and Alan Shearer in for a laugh. Ah ****, that's gonna come back to haunt me isn't it...
Haha, sometimes it is someone who isn't even mentioned Like Keegan and Joe ****ing Kinnear for us lol
There is so many strange appointments in football. I could never understand why Gary Megson got the job here and I knew he wouldn't be around for long. Then Mandaric gives him the Wednesday job
haha. Yeh come to think of it it probably won't be one of those mentioned. So, you guys are confident of a Champions League place this season I'm guessing ...Failing that Europa League within reach?
