I'd rather have Nuno - but JDT and Carsley are on the next tier down Honestly I’m surprised by the unanimous excitement for Nuno. There’s some positives but there’s some huge glaring worries. Flopped at Tottenham. Wolves fans were shocked he even got the Spurs job if I remember correctly. And his football is dour. Would I take him? Yes. But Lee Carsley seems like a true progressive appointment that would work well with Jared Dublin. Carslet totally unproven. Nuno never had a worse win record than 47%. If he can keep that intact it's a no brainer surely?

I’m not saying carsley talk is a load of shit but he was at St George’s park this morning. I know because I was sat opposite him having breakfast. Not sure what time people think he was at stoke but it couldn’t have been before midday unless we met him at St George’s Should have asked if he was coming to Stoke. I wasn’t aware of him being linked or I would have done. I had my stoke jumper on and he never said anything 😂

I'm torn. As an Irishman, I really wanted Carsley to get the Irish job after the sacking of Stephen Kenny. But now, with my beloved Stoke showing an interest, I don't know what to think. I think he would be a great appointment for either, but particularly for Stoke, where he would have day-to-day involvement with the players. I imagine that Simkin, Sidibe, Junior, Lowe and Tezgel would all get game-time. No bad thing.....

If he can keep that intact it's a no brainer surely? I think the club would need to structure itself very differently to make it work with Carsely and Nuno. Carsely needs to focus on coaching - all the other crap will need to go to the backroom staff, giving him a good manager role would be a dusaster. I suspect Nuno would prefer to be pulling the strings and have others working under him. If the right people are put in place either can work but get the structure wrong it won't work out for either of them.

I'm just enjoying that right now I'd be happy with any out of a bunch of managers we've been linked with (Carsley, SJE, JDT, NES types). I'm going be proper gutted if we end up with some Mowbray-esque fella instead.

Did AN really sign all of those players himself? I certainly think there was some face saving "yeah I sign off on all signings" but not sure how true that was with how left field some of them were.

I admit I'll be disapponted with Carsley. Don't really understand why he's less of a gamble than Eustace?
Nuno, Dick S og JDT for me
