Added Clement and Hasenhuttl.

My issue is whether he can implement that style on his own, from scratch. His success has come following directly from Ange.

Oliver Glassner is still without a club.

Are the Ibrox Noise folk credible? I don't think they are, are they? Anyway, according to them the shortlist is: "Graham Potter. Kjetil Knutsen. Pascal Jansen. And Kevin Muscat."

I completely agree. I've always been in favour if a properly integrated B team, both within the club and within the league pyramid/structure. Alas! Dinosaurs and incompetents run our game...

What do you mean?

As a manager in his own right he has taken charge of 50 games. What is it you think he has achieved to deserve an interview? By all means add him to a watchlist and monitor how he does over the following few years. That's sensible. To answer your question, though: No.

I wasn't dismissing his early work at Sheffield Utd at all - I am actually a big fan of his tactical use of the overlapping centre-back in the back-three. However, IMO, a large part of his success was because he had a good group of players which propelled him up to the PL, but once those players fell out of the team or he didn't have them (i.e. Middlesborough and Watford) he hasn't had any success, or he hasn't been able to recreate it. Whether I'm being harsh or not, it's factually correct. I don't want Lampard and Jansen, either.

It was, wasn't it? They were bottom of the table (after 28 games) when he was sacked. He had also fallen out with the club's hierarchy and some of the players, IIRC? That's not dismissing his excellent early work at Sheffield Utd.

I ignored his record in the Conference, League Two and league One because it's irrelevant (in terms of level and it was around 10 years ago). His final season at Sheffield Utd was a shit-show. His season at Middlesborough was a shit-show. His season at Watford was a shit-show. I agree there are worse names out there, but Wilder should not be an option - IMO, of course.

What's bollocks?

Sky Sports are saying that Potter and Ryan Lowe (Preston NE) are not in the running.

I don't want Lampard either - hence the shotgun comment! Wilder has only done it at Sheffield Utd. He has failed everywhere else. I suspect he just had a very good group at the blades, which got him a couple of promotions. I like what McKenna is doing. He's certainly one of the most promising coaches in Britain. I wouldn't mind Mosimane, but I think that's unlikely, unfortunately. I'd like Potter or Hasenhuttl. I think the former is a non-starter, though.

I'd rather have Lampard than Wilder, but that would be swiftly followed by the insertion of a shotgun into my mouth.

This would make me jump in the front seat of @CammyF's anti-board bandwagon. What's the f*cking point? Are they even trying to appoint someone competent?

At least Hagi exists...

There needs to be someone in place before the end of the international break.

Yes, good names, but their success comes either in the Netherlands or Barcelona - which, thanks to Cruyff, is basically Dutch in terms of the players and set-up at their disposal. Koeman didn't win much outside the Netherlands. (He had Southampton doing well, but that was on the back of Pochettino's work, IMO.) Hiddink is a good manager, but again didn't actually win much outside the Netherlands.

He's also Dutch, but that's a personal prejudice.
