New manager

[Lord Eddard Muir]

It offers me some comfort that Wayne Rooney is behind Alan Knill in the betting.

Only half as likely as Chris Morgan leaping into his first managerial job after 20 years out of the game. Might lump a tenner on Curtis Woodhouse looking at some of those names.

It wasn't, still doesn't give him experience of success though

Then why does your post read as if that is a negative? I only care about what people can do going forward, not what they have done in the past. Otherwise you get disastrous appointments like Adkins by giving him credit for doing absolutely nothing special, but hey, success

The owners want some foreign flair.

Apparently some Mexican called Cristóbal Wildero has applied at the last minute

Because I don't see it as a particularly positive if he's recruited as Manager with no support other than standard coaching staff, which is my prerogative. I'm normally pretty optimistic and that's why I think it'll be part of a bigger structural change, which I would see as positive.

one potential positive is that (bar wide forward / wingers) the squad is a lot more adaptable than the squad we had previously

We could only play 5-3-2 which is why Slav was an abject disaster. Hopefully the currently squad / which some additions is a lot more adaptable than the last ‘new’ manager inherited.

We players 4 at the back, 4 and 3 in midfield and 1/2 upfront at times. It would be nice to see some quality attacking football

We're still missing actual winger as we only have Brooks, who isn't consistent and reliable enough yet

Phil Parkinson would be an interesting appointment

If you use a data driven approach for selecting a new manager, I wonder who would come out on top for any manager already in the championship? Would it be Wilder himself?
Just bonkers but based on last years performance, hanging on for a 1:0 win isn’t much of a tactic I suppose .
Living in Australia I know all about Ange and to be honest he’s loved over here but I feel he’s not all that, even Nigel Adkins would look good at Celtic. Montgomery however was outstanding and did an unbelievable job at Central coast mariners, a team with the least money, won the league and progressed into the Asia cup. He did that in 2 seasons.
Based on AI, Eric Ten Hag is the best manger right now and look how he did at Man U it’s all rubbish. Just like players, a manger may look good on paper but will they be a fit at a new club.

Based on my advanced AI google search we could be looking at, with a Bulgarian link, Zahari Sirakov very good stats

Still better than this guy
