From the same source that gave word of the Bojan loan to Mainz a few days before it broke, apparently the board have already sounded out Claudio Ranieri about taking over in the summer. Make of it what you will, he achieved a miracle at Leicester last season but whilst I want Mark Hughes gone in the summer, Ranieri would not be my choice. We need a younger, up and coming manager who is adapting and learning the modern game. The likes of Rowett, Jokanovic, Silva, Wagner, Marcelino etc Strange that you didn't mention it at the time ... there doesn't appear to be any record of this in your posting history? You're not suggesting....no surely not....can't be, can it? Not bullshit on the Oatcake?

So you are picking up on a predict text and did not see the Arsenal coach bit so the Mr Wooden who sits next to Wenger is that who you are on about, does that help you to make it a bit clearer Bould is relatively young for a manager, has Stoke City background and seems to be a no nonsense guy who could get the best out of his players I'm thinking of a realistic replacement not dropping names of managers who wouldn't want to come here, for one reason or another Coates will not employ a rookie manager

There's a massive diffence between being First team coach and Head Coach/Manager.

I'd take a premier league winning manager. A winner with a team expecting to fight relegation too. Probably the greatest achievement in the history of the game. Yeah, I'd probably take a punt on that useless shithouse. Could spin that round and ask if you'd take a manager who nearly relegated the reigning premier league champions.

There aren't many decent British managers out of work at the moment. I would be surprised if Coates went foreign with his first choice though.

My concern is that if we replaced Hughes with a manager with much less experience and credibility in the game, then the players wouldn't want to know. If results start badly, the dressing room would crumble. Add that to the fact that a couple of old heads will be gone in the summer.
The best players we have now are here because of Hughes and money. Having an up and coming manager is a massive risk and would probably require a significant overhaul of the squad. Too big a risk in my view, taking months to sort that would see us relegated.
Mancini is the one manager I'd be completely confident in.

Why not back Hughes and give him a few games next season to turn round the team If you think of all the injuries we have had this year to key players that have disrupted the team and players coming back from big injuries that have not shown any form what so ever, before getting injured again, he has had a limited options at times. We have class players and when they are fit we have a class team add a few new young faces next year and we will fly. we have the makings of a good team and changing the manager is not the answer. He attracts players and has good links with other clubs ie Barcelona etc and that's why we get there ex players etc . Injuries have disrupted the team? Injuries? What like to Imbula, Bony, Bojan, Joselu etc etc the first two lazy players that think because they are paid thousands and have mega transfer values that they don't have to maintain there status as big players and have the wrong attitude Bony instead of pulling his socks up and working for his place go's to the press criticising everyone but himself its like you saying to your boss I don't know why your complaining about because I've done no work its your fault. what would he or she do sack you well in football terms that's what we've done by not playing him. Bojan not been the same player since his bad injury last year was sent on loan to find form and failed there too. Cameron period out injured with big injury BARDSLEY/ Johnson/Shaqiri. all in and out of team due to injury BUTLAND first choice goalkeeper out all season have to go scrambling at start of season for goalkeeper after Given etc not up to it Ireland although backup out due to serious injury Afellay in and out of team due to serious injury last year and this Diouf a forward who cant score and away with ACN But don't let facts get in the way for your obvious hatred of Hughes a team needs consistent uninjured players who care for how they and the team play the heart and effort shown by our so called older players that some want to get rid of is worth far more than the two prema donnas that you mention first We have an unsettled side that has shown glimpses of what they are capable of due to injury and then players coming back and either getting injured again or loosing fitness in the second half of games and before anyone mentions Berahino not fit and not played but getting fit and looking sharper I when Hughes came in thought he was the wrong choice but now think he is the right one I think we are building a team and next year with consistency, no injuries etc can achieve a lot

Rainier (bless him) is a very likeable man However I have no confidence in him as a manager.....similar to Hughes in that respect Personally I would be very worried for Stoke city if he's the best option Grace Kelly would be proud that her Prince could be a Stokie!

Bournemouth manager.... Plays lovely attacking football. The biggest load of sh!te on this website this season. Bournemouth were most definitely the worst & least entertaining side to appear at Bet365 this season, feigning head injuries & time wasting from the first minute....... and some people want their manager to be the next England manager, ..... Heaven forbid.

This really shows that sacking LMH would be a very dangerous thing to do.He has made mistakes this season but the alternatives are very few and far between.I certainly don't want Ranieri and I really can't think of a realistic replacement. These next few games are really winable and I hope that we pull it round and we keep LMH for next season.I like him and feel he deserves more time to turn this poor run around,there have been some very disappointing performances this season but we can still finish in the top 10 again and for a team of Stoke's resources that is very creditable.

If we were to give Mark Hughes the first few games next season, that would be interesting - have you seen the results Mark has at stoke in the last four years at Stoke in the first six games. Whilst we are in the subject, check out his results early doors with his others clubs. If you're giving him time thenXmas at least as one win is all we can hope for in the first six games next year if history and recent pre- season training is anything to go by!

Just as you can't judge Hughes on 1 season at QPR, you can't judge Ranieri on 1 season at Leicester. No thank you, been generally a poor manager, the overwhelming view was 'what the fuck are they doing' when he went to Leicester, and it would be the same if he came here for me.

Ranieri would scare the shit out of me. He's one of those all or nothing managers who will either take us into the top 6 or get us relegated. Too much of a gamble for me. I'd quite like that Wagner from Huddersfield.

Hughes has to go at the end of the season My choice as replacement would be Steve Bould That's because you're an idiot. And you are a bogan. You think you are such a know-it-all, you're probablysomeone who has done fuck all with your life and has the temerity to call someone an idiot just because you disagree with an opinion he has just voiced You have just shown yourself to be nothing but a shallow person totally lacking any form of education, an ignoramus of the highest order

Whoever takes over at Stoke will inherit an aging team that needs major surgery.
The players Hughes has bought in overall haven't worked so we've had to rely on the old (Pulis) Guard.
That is going to be a very difficult operation.
Ranieri is not the man to carry out this surgery.
Which will be why (barring a disaster) Hughes will be left to perform the operation himself.
At least for one more season.
