According to that youtube interview, he spent 4 months pretty much embedded at Man City in 2020, watching them train, as the guy he assisted at Girona, Unzue, was good friends with the Catalan contingent there, and spent a week watching Bielsa at Leeds, which is where he met Corberan

He can’t be the replacement, if he this is worse than mad bath. This is a smoke screen surely Better though than the other option: crazy shower or batshit bidet |

Time will tell I guess? |

Mental morning, but there are some reasons for optimism.
1) comes across really well in interviews
2) Norwich were surprisingly good last year when a lot of people thought David Wagner was a poor appointment. Then Pelach kept his job after the managerial change.
3) We’ve obviously identified him in advance rather than it being a knee-jerk reaction, so hopefully there’s good cause to have done so.

We’ve trodden every other managerial road so why not give this one a go.
For the club to ‘gamble’ like this implies someone has done a hell of a lot of research - you don’t put your reputation on the line on a whim.

Another bloke who’ll get 2 matches before this lot on here start turning Any manager who walks through the door gets our backing, much longer than they should sometimes, at this club. It's a trait I like and one I think you can be proud of. Its peoples livelihoods and jobs you are messing with. Schumacher should still be manager today and at least until January. If we are in the bottom 10 then and someone was available fair enough. Our Sporting Director has had an argument and sacked the manager like a petulant child. |

v.24liveblog.com/iframe/?id=3671267419471560935Difficult to quantify. Narcis is Popular with the players. JHT has spoken in warm tones about him. But as he made clear in our Pinkun interview last year, that is his ultimate ambition. At this stage, contact has been made. Dialogue on-going but your hunch would be he might feel Stoke is too good to turn down at this stage. Spoken to the club this morning . Sense is Pelach exit could move swiftly. But like with the player scenario this past summer, they'd look to move on a coach/GK coach if both are needed. I could see DR maybe in an interim capacity if the timing was not quite right with a Clements' external replacement, but longer term probably not right now.

Wasn't particularly easy he did some bizarre stuff and didn't seem to correct things that were clearly getting exploited. Those few games that were really good to watch at the back end of the season left me wanting more but I was pretty confused by some of his decisions. The 1:2 midfield that clearly didn't suit the players at his disposal I found especially baffling. That the new bloke if appointed is meant to be an attack minded progressive is not the type of replacement I would have predicted somewhat softens the blow of losing a HC I so wanted to do well. |

All on all a pretty strange morning even by our standards... One thing I can't get out of my head tho is that JW would not want to Lose his joband itooks like he thought he may if he sticks With SS this is likely so he has looked elsewhere.... On paper this guy looks like he could be decent and it's the only path we haven't trodden so he's rolled the dice because this guy has given him enough encouragement to say I can do better than what you have and only time will tell if that's correct.... Also SS next appointment will also be interesting as we don't know if it's purely personality clashes

Another bloke who’ll get 2 matches before this lot on here start turning I just don't think there's much patience left to be honest. From disaster to disaster, idea to idea, it's hard to have any enthusiasm for it all. It doesn't feel well timed or planned, just a massive decision taken. If he starts badly, the pressure won't just be on him, but on Walters and Coates. I'm honestly OK with the sacking itself as I wasn't particularly wedded to him, but the background of it all (not even here 12 months and dragging him away from Plymouth) is just comical. I think he had a lot of fans onside, who will now be feeling pissed off and taking that energy into the next regime which could, let's be honest, be a horror show. If this one fails, God knows where we go next, but it'll be the wrong way out this division. |

Coates needs to be asked what went wrong with Shoey when he only appointed him 9 months ago. Is your judgement useless and have you made this appointment or Walters?
I think we know the answer?

Our last 6 appointments have been failures, O'Neil is the only one with some credit in the bank. There is no guaranteed success regardless of who we appoint. indeed but this is guaranteeing failure just a question of how much damage is done here Oh please. You think it will be failure, fair enough. To say it will guarantee it, are you actually being serious or just wound up by it all? |

The player 'revolt' at Schu's tactics and gameplans last season I don't think ever happened unless the players know they have Walters ear. |

It's just been the international break. If you wanted to sack him, you'd have done that at the start and give the manager 2 weeks. Even better gone in the summer of you didn't fancy him. They've fallen out. I hope that Schumacher stuck to his guns, told him he's manager and roundly told him to fuck off. He come across as a man of his word and I reckon that's why he's gone. He wouldn't play to Walters tune. |
