New Manager

[bakajack]

Gotta laugh at names mentioned. Laudrup mun. He was here when we were competing with the best in Britain. We're at best Championship, could still be L1. I know we're excited but get a grip lol

As mentioned Laudrup has been out of a job for about 6 years
Its not like he is drawing interest from across Europe
Same with Bielsa, he has been out of work for about two years now?
Currently managing the Uruguay u23 squad but hasn't been with a domestic club since 2022 when he left leeds

 

[Ronald Parp]

Probably go back in for Muscat or Osian.

 

[CurtessECarr]

Ryan Lowe? He did OK at Preston.

 

[sainthelens]

Cameron Toshack
Gustavo Poyet

What’s Schumacher doing these days?

Breathing out of a tube ?

 

[Londonlisa2001]

Probably go back in for Muscat or Osian.

I would love to see Osian at the club. He would be a better choice as director of football though. We should have put him in charge of sorting out the playing side from top to bottom.
I really hope we don’t go for anyone like Muscat.

The biggest issues we will have in recruiting a manager will be the state of the club and the geography.

If there's someone decent and available who at least is okay living in Swansea then that's half the battle right there.

The state of the club......that's a whole other story.

Despised by their fans and sacked after one game this season. Would rather not

The clubs position in the league is one thing, but the state of the club internally would be the biggest barrier to getting in a "proper" manager such as Laudrup or Bielsa, neither of them would put up with car crash transfer windows or internal bickering between owners and would sooner walk out than deal with that sort of nonsense

To have any chance of that kind of appointment Coleman will have to let go of his control freak style and let various departments and staff do their jobs

 

[WentToSchoolWith]

No idea who I want, nor does it really matter, but I wouldn't be surprised to see us go for Carsley or Brian Barry Murphy

 

[Cooperman]

People calling for Laudrup may be interested to know that the last time he was a manager we were technically a Premier League club.

File under ‘sentimental appointment’

Absolutely no thanks.

 

[Gors Buster]

We should have pushed the boat out for Bellamy.

 

[ThurrockJack]

File under ‘sentimental appointment’

Absolutely no thanks.

Yeah, i'd say no former managers and no to the likes of Gerrard and Rooney. But then I was happy when Luke was appointed, so my managerial opinions probably shouldn't be trusted

My wishlist based on who is currently not in a job (in no particular order)

Laudrup
Bielsa
Toshack
Schumacher

Bielsa is in a job and doing very nicely.

 

[bakajack]

Bielsa is in a job and doing very nicely.

Isn't he in charge of the Uruguay under 23s?

 

[monmouth]

I’ll hate whoever it is?

Whomever??
