Surely the realistic alternatives are anyone who doesn't concede more than two goals a game?
How hard can it be, to find a realistic alternative to the manager, who has conceded more goals than everyone in the top 5 leagues in europe?
Regardless of whether sparky is a ' nice bloke '. He's not exactly setting the bar high, football management wise.

I think what we as a club need to do, is get a big name in, for the interim period until the end of the summer. Its the only way the players are going to respect the manager, and other teams will be a little more cautious. The idea of anyone like Pearson, Keane, O'Neill, Macari (!) in the dug out is a sure sign we're planning for relegation.
You might think some of the following names are unrealistic, but fuck it, why not go for broke??
Ancelotti (available)
Laurent Blanc (available)
Van Gaal (available)
Tuchel (available)
Marcelo Bielsa (available)

I'm sure pep would help out with the odd player or two for him |

It's got to be done quickly. It's January and others are ringing for transfers not managers

I forgot to add in my original post, pay them a 'normal' wage, and if they keep us up, give them a very healthy bonus of £Xm |

Ancelotti, i'm sure has done a short term contract before, Tuchel and Blanc would love to manage in the PL, so why not get a taster with us with no obligation to stay and there is always the added bonus of a few million for 6 months work. We going tohave to pay a wedge to stay up |

Tuchel would be my first choice if available and it appears he speaks English which is always a bonus.
Pearson is a more realistic second choice and would bring with him some knowledge of Leicester's sports science facility which improved fitness and reduced the impact of injuries for The Foxes (something we would definitely benefit from)

Isn’t Bielsa the manager who made lamina and imbulas career who plays 3 at the back and high work ethic?
Doubt we’d get him mind.

This link reminds me of dame edna everidge ( barry humphries) teeing off at a celebrity golf tourament with a miserable effort that fell off the tee and dribbled into the rough. ' blast, a son in law shot ' ' a son in law shot? ' ' yep, not what i had hoped for ' |

It's a shocking state of affairs if they really wouldn't consider a suitable candidate based upon where he was born, rather than his ability. |

I honestly think a short term, high bonus for survival related deal is the best way to go.
Tuchel and Blanc (even if they were at all realistic options) would not be the right appointments for that.
Ancelotti, Van Gaal or Bielsa could well be.
I don't know why, but if we could get a favourable deal for Mancini, I would be up for that.
If we wanted to go long term from the off, then Tuchel or Rodgers, however I cannot see either being realistic in a million years.

I just went off the 5 names touted before. Either way, if and its a big IF, Van Gaal wanted the job for 5 months and Stoke could get a deal with him, we would be stupid not to go there. The guy is a short term specialist! |

It is, Charlie Adam would be as fit as a butchers dog if he was manager. Would love him to be here along with Tuchel but both very very very unlikely to come unfortunately. |

That's ok mate, I just remembered the quote and Rob Dorset said it on ssn today, I don't agree with it if it's 100 percent true, just gives you less options and atm not the most |

We should pay big money to poach Dyche.
We’re a bigger club than Burnley, better ground and training ground and arguably a better squad. If we pay him to come, and pay Burnley to let him go, and then back him in the window - then I think our fortunes will change.
