Speculation Pearson's Replacement

[Profondo Rosso]

I still fully expect it to be Lennon.

Only other option I could see us going for would be Ranieri I guess now he's publicly thrown his hat in. Though Ranieri is a very short-termist solution and usually only stays at clubs for a season or two.

 

[Nottingham Fox]

Next please.

I think that's what is worrying, I'm not sure there is even a next option in the pipeline. Shambles.

 

[Lako42]

Would prefer Roberto over Lennon.

 

[SwedeFox]

Or just simply Kevin Phillips?

It says younger

 

[Volpone]

Nigel Pearson was recently put on the street.

 

[Blaarev]

It says younger

Well, he is younger than Hiddink. Isn't he? Unsure now.

 

[Graz]

If Hiddink has said no, I can see it being Ranieri now he's thrown his name into the mix.

Hiddink would've been better, Klopp (unrealistic, but) better still.... but Ranieri seems better than the other names mentioned. Wouldn't mind Di Matteo. Felt he was harshly treated at West Brom.

 

[Lako42]

How many knockbacks until we unveil Dowie?


This is doing my head in now.

 

[Volpone]

Cambiasso?

If the offer to Hiddink as a mentor is true, then it is unlikely to be a current manager. Can't see Lennon wanting to be supervised. Sounds like Cambiasso to me.

 

[Lako42]

Claudio could also do the same with Cambi?

 

[Blaarev]

Claudio could also do the same with Cambi?

Wouldn't that make you jealous?

 

[homer]

What a complete shower

 

[Mawsley]

Spectacular.

No matter how well things are going, we always find a way to **** it up.

We are Man City.

 

[Macky]

Beats being in Liverpool, waking up to find you're having your car radio nicked at 2 in the morning.... can't see him being keen on that.

It's a good thing that never, ever happens in Lestoh

 

[Volpone]

This is taking a bit too long now.

What's the rush? I'd much rather we take our time and get the right and best person for the job.

 

[Miles Away]

What's the rush? I'd much rather we take our time and get the right and best person for the job.

We have a cavernous hole in midfield that needs to be filled quickly. Whoever comes in will need to install his preferred formation. We have friendlies starting in the next week. We have a relatively easy start where we will absolutely need to pick up points. It needs sorting. The way it has gone so far this could rumble on for another couple of weeks which would leave us entirely buggered.

Oddschecker shows a new candidate in the race - Predrag Radosavljević - down to 5/1 with Victor.

Preki? no thanks.

 

[jb5000]

Currently managing in what is effectively the third division of US soccer. I dread to think where this has sprung from.

 

[Dour]

****. Preki now down to 6/4 with SkyBet.
