    Kim Hellberg

    Yeah, my memory exactly. Funny, we seem to have a pretty great GK coach already. Might be worth exploring? Also, as it pertains to the MLS, I wouldn't hold it against him. It's a very weird league that can't really be compared to anything else. Bruno Lage was part of Carlos Carvalhal's...

    Kim Hellberg

    This is right where I'm at as well. Hellberg could very well be a terrific manager, but for me it seems a bit of a risk. Personally, the candidates who I'd prefer but would likely have to convince: Raphel Wicky Bruno Lage Brendan Rodgers (doubt we could afford)

    Fulton & Cullen

    That's a bit harsh. The only way we're a lower Championship side is if the club massively bungle the appointment. We're barely there in the lower third despite atrocious play as of late. We're clearly not the Liverpool of the Champ, but they're in 8th right now. Would you call Liverpool a...

    Fulton & Cullen

    I don't disagree about Cullen, but for us depending on who we bring in I would be shocked if we ended up below 10th when it's all said and done. You're probably about right that high L1 is his level though I do think he could do a job for someone like maybe Oxford or Wednesday. He's got to be...

    Fulton & Cullen

    I think it might be a bit harsh lumping them together. Fulton will turn 32 this season and his best football is in his rearview. He's certainly destined for Scotland or L1, hopefully in the Jan window. Cullen is a bit of a different animal. He's still got some good years left but he's past...

    A few quick possibilities without research, etc.: Bruno Lage - was an assistant here under Carvalhal; would honestly depend on how he liked the area Raphael Wicky - if I remember correctly, WBA were about to appoint him near the window last season but couldn't convince his staff to come to the...

    You're not wrong, but after Ipswich on Saturday we have 2 weeks with the break. As you say, the club has likely at least started making enquiries already.

    Absolutely right. I doubt it will happen, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't. I was all for giving Sheehan a chance with the job on a permanent basis. I was also all for giving him time to bed in with the squad. We just haven't made the improvements that we should have and he often seems...

    I completely agree, but the new owners have clear ambition. The squad surely has talent. We need to be able to unlock that talent. And, if we are to make a change, it might as well be now. No need to wait to rip off the bandage. The new manager would have time to get in, assess the squad, and...

    A couple of weeks ago (maybe it was after the QPR match) I was willing to give AS until after the Wrexham match next month. All I needed to see was some reasonable improvement out of the squad. We haven't gotten that. I will confidently say now that, for me, if we don't win against Ipswich we...

    How can Widell not be starting every match? Same for Innoussa? Does Sheehan have something against Swedes?

    I think we'll likely defend something similar to the above shape (likely with widell and Inoussa flipped), but will likely attack in more of a 4-3-3 with either Tymon or Inoussa (depending on the state of play) functioning as the "LW" and Widell as the "RW." Just a guess.

    Yeah, hard to tell from my tiny screen. In either case you have to keep a calm head and just move it along.
