    He won't, which is why I've said we will have to wait until the summer. He'll see out this season at Bayern and the Euros with Portugal. But there's a strong chance that he's a head coach at an English club next season.

    Great . Where can I find the report that says he's our top target?

    Euros are in July no? Hasn't pre season began by then?

    <laugh> I like your thinking but no chance, unfortunately.

    Where you heard he is a top target mate? Not doubting you just an interesting link and a name I’m not familiar with

    Would you have confidence in his man management, coaching and tactics beyond set pieces?

    Sorry if it’s covered in the article, I don’t subscribe to The Athletic.

    It would be a risk taking him on but I personally think we need to take a risk if we want high rewards.

    Can't see us paying for a manager. Doesn't fit the sustainable model

    It's third hand information. I'm leaning towards believing it because it makes sense from what I understand of Barry and what I think Speakman/KLD want. It's a great match.

    The Athletic article includes a number of players and staff who have worked with him giving him praise for all of these things. Tuchel and Martinez have both been keen to take him to multiple clubs/nations which speaks volumes too.

    He's exactly the kind of bold appointment I can see this club making next (if it's planned rather than reactionary).

    ... who will it be and where will he take us.

    Perhaps I'm just a little RAW tonight but perhaps the Mowbray thread can be for any messages for the man himself.

    He’s definitely been making steps in management to be fair. Was Martinez’ assistant at Belgium for a couple of years. Just seems an unlikely one, but ya never know.

    Henry loves Sunderland by the way, he talked about our fans in his book, the day we applauded them while they battered us.

    Who knows. ****ing disaster at Monaco though.

    I know you’ve had a couple of bad results the last few weeks, but I’ll admit I was very surprised to see TM given the heave ho. Be interesting to see who ends up in charge.
