I’m still backing Pochettino but after seeing that negative rubbish in the first half with a back 5 at home to Watford, how can anyone want to replace him with a more defensive manager like Mourinho or Allegri?

Surely our motivation has to be football that is exciting.

My concern with Allegri is that, beyond managing Juve and Milan, he's not really been that great. His managerial history is a bit underwhelming beyond that, so there's an argument to say that he's done well with teams that were dominating a league that wasn't that competitive. On one hand, he's reached the UCL final twice. On the other, he's lost twice.

I can’t imagine the football under Allegri or Jose to be that inspiring (although obviously better than what has been served up in 2019). I would go for Rogers because I think he could bring on younger players and build a project. I’d be delighted if he brought Ndidi, Maddison and Chilwell with him too. Don’t see him leaving Leicester for the $h1t show that is us at the moment as he has a good thing going there.

Yeah the disrespect he is getting is harsh. He has done a great job at Bournemouth. I don't know whether he is the right man for the job, but he has certainly earn't the right to be on the shortlist. As a fan base we tend to be above our station at times when it comes to professionals in the game.

It's because he's English.

If his name was Howelinhio it would be a different story.

But the project has come to the end of its cycle and all that's left is a load of broken parts not fit for purpose. Howe would be mad to come in here whilst the deadwood remains. He would be on a hiding to nothing.

This is a good point, Bringing in a new manager means he needs to reinvigorate the players and get them functioning as a team again.

Getting short term results will certainly help the club a lot but ultimately what we need is a rebuild.

Fortunately I believe many of the players we don't want will happily leave if a suitable offer comes in. But it is a big job and as soon as results go bad many will think Poch was prematurely disposed of.

Maybe but I think many see the job at Bournemouth is very different to a top 6 side.

Many managers have done very good jobs at small clubs but struggled at big ones. They require a different skilset.

I would like us to consider Howe but if his attributes are right for a top 6 side I have no idea.

Id go for Klopp but if that doesnt work out then Brenda

If neither are up for it then im going for the Cougar - Mourinho. It may not last long but will be entertaining pressers etc

There are as many Managers that have gone on to do well though, Klopp coming from Mainz to Dortmund for example.

Of course, my point is you need to look at what attributes are required to be a success at our club and who possesses those attributes.

I think we need a manager who is good with young players, is good at diplomacy with the board and is adaptable with his tactics.

So I believe Howe would be a good fit for us though I am by no means a particularly good judge for incoming managers.

Agree, I'm not sure about the tactical adaptability though. The best managers seem to have a philosophy and stick to it rigidly.

Poch was brilliant until he decided/ or was pressured by fans into creating a plan B.

I’ve said for weeks Mourinho would be my preference. I bet Amazon are loving this, imagine the numbers signing up to prime just to watch the drama unfold! :cautious::cry:
