Next Blades Manager odds

[sheff_blade90]

for me if it happens, which i still hope it doesnt, only 2 choices Steve Cooper did a brilliant job at forest & was sacked for overachieving at leicester. or liam rosenior a highly rated young manager. nobody else on that list that interests me

 

[Roygbiv]

dyche wouldnt be my 1st choice but what he did at burnley doesnt get anywhere near the credit it deserves

We're playing Dyche-like football right now but without a solid defence.

 

[Gimli]

Scenes when we enter into a Wilder-Hecky eternal doom loop where we keep trying to recreate the good old days whilst slowly tumbling towards the National League in 2056

 

[Torrix1889]

Cooper is the only option from that list, Dyche at a push.

would not be surprised if the owners looked at the MLS at all...

 

[jimmymuir]

Would be gutted if/when Wilder does go. Would hope that we'd give him another season, especially when he only just signed a new contract a few months ago. Only people I'd want to replace him is Dyche/Muscat/Cooper.

 

[MayorOJC]

I like Cooper's coaching, but he's even worse with money than Wilder is.

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

Not saying I want Dyche but I don't get people turning their nose up at him when he's been more successful than Wilder playing a similar way to how we are now

I think for a lot of people "playing like we do now" is in the negatives column for Wilder, and Dyche doesn't have "one of our own" in the positives column to balance it out

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

dyche wouldnt be my 1st choice but what he did at burnley doesnt get anywhere near the credit it deserves

He is the only one on the list with a track record of establishing an unfashionable club as Premier League regulars without breaking the bank, but he'd just feel like a bit of a like-for-like swap with Wilder at a time when, if we're going to make a change, it should be for someone who genuinely improves our set-up.

If he is to go if we don’t go up. Who would you want?

Not that boring negative twat Dyche!

 

[Melbourne Blade]

Phil Parkinson 25/1 slap a tenner on it!

I'd only take Cooper (actually really like the guy tbh) and maybe Carsley from that list.

 

[Davalon]

Alexander Blessin. It’s time.

Work permit

 

[ISZA ⚔️]

Work permit

Can’t they fast track it like what they’re doing with Christian Nwhatshisface

 

[BrayfordsBushyBeard]

Jesse Marsch or however it’s spelt ! From the good old U S of A
As ever UTB !

 

[Rodley]

Some absolute garbage being suggested, none of whom are an upgrade, except Cooper who likely wouldn’t come.

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

Few of my realistic(ish) suggestions. I think "league experience" is a bit over-rated. I'm more interested in managers being good tacticians, preferably with decent backroom experience shadowing top-class managers.

Wilfried Nancy (Columbus Crew) - Got Columbus Crew playing really attractive football. He's known for being the tactician of the MLS, but is really well liked by the players too. Might catch the owners eye, as he's won a few cups in the past few season.

Pep Lijnders (Unattached) - Klopp's former number 2. Didn't work out at Red Bull Salzburg, but he's a smart guy with a clear philosophy. Lot of the best managers started as number 2 to the great managers.

Ian Cathro (Estoril) - Scottish former assistant manager to Rafa Benitez and Nuno Santo. Moved to Portugal to manage Estoril and has impressed. Only 38, so could have a fresh approach.

Rob Edwards (Unattached) - No idea what the hell happened this season, but worked miracles at Luton. Maybe just needs a fresh project.

Kevin Muscat (Shanghai Port) - Been successful managing in Australia, Japan and China. Proper nasty bastard who has relaxed with age, but could still keep a bit of that Wilder fire.

A much more appealing list to the smorgasbord of shite in the OP..

 

[metalblade]

I'd only be interested in Cooper, Rosenior and Eustace although I doubt he'd leave Derby for us.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Billy Sharp 1/5
Nick Montgomery Ev
Robert Page 4/1
Neil Collins 8/1
Mark Duffy 10/1
Kyle Walker 14/1
Brian Deane 20/1
Neil Warnock 33/1
Paul Heckingbottom 33/1
Micky Adams 100/1

 

[sportinguista]

Imagine the scenes in Warnock's house if Muscat became the United manager...he'd tear his (ahem) season ticket up screaming "that's for Muscat that is"

 

[Wincobank S9 Blade]

I rate Rosenior tbf but I’d be shocked if Wilder goes

 

[Pawk Patrol]

Ted Lasso FTW.

 

[Pollingtonblade]

I think the new owners (when do we stop calling them new? ) will go for someone like Jesse Marsh?

 

[FoxtrotAlphaZulu]

Rosenior or Carsley for me.
Def no to Dyche. If we think the football's bad now, it'd be worse under him. I'm not interested in a 'workmanlike' or a percentages team which is what his football brings.

 

[Matlock Blade]

Is it true Dean Hammond has won his managerial badges? I'd give him the job as he's a former player who knows the Sheffield United way.

 

[lazyfecklessblade]

• Paul Heckingbottom 8/1

Fucking yes, infinite manager loop

 

[sufc323]

Billy Sharp 1/5
Nick Montgomery Ev
Robert Page 4/1
Neil Collins 8/1
Mark Duffy 10/1
Kyle Walker 14/1
Brian Deane 20/1
Neil Warnock 33/1
Paul Heckingbottom 33/1
Micky Adams 100/1

That's more like it. Only those that have played for us or born within a 3 mile radius of BDTBL need apply

 

[ATL Recs]

Christophe Wilderinho after CW changes his name by deed poll. It'd be funny to see the snobs, jilted brides, and anti English xenophobes automatically lauding the current manager (who's doing a superb job) when he comes back in foreign attire, playing the same football with similar results.

Or get cheque book Slav back. He's a misunderstood genius apparently .

Cheque book Slav didnt have a penny that he was promised

 

[1889]

Rosenior got the sack from Hull City because the owner said the style of football he played was boring and overly negative. I didn’t watch many of their games, but it was noticeable that their keeper had more completed passes than the centre mid. Frankly, I’ve seen enough of that dirge this season, to last me a lifetime.
Cooper, seems a little lacking in personality to me and whilst I know it shouldn’t matter, has got a face a dog wouldn’t lick, so he’s out too.

 

[Willglynning]

Wouldn’t be upset to see Mark Robbins in charge, very surprised to see him sacked from Coventry.

I imagine he would be quite expensive given he's got three years left on his contract at Stoke.

 

[SouthStandGBlock]

Dyche, Cooper, Robins, Rowett, Eustace all proven Championship managers.

IF we get promoted, then all of the above bar Rowett, plus some higher profile managers.

Dyche would be a good fit though regardless of division. The football is a bit brutal, but it's hardly been total football this season has it?
