Who should be the new manager?

Seems to have a nice approach to players and not afraid to give it to them when they're playing crap and defends his players. 

 

As previously mentioned whoever it is Barry, Gerrard, Marco, Rafa….. They need to cut out the bad habits and not be afraid of sticking to the same formations throughout the whole game, I give Barry credit for adopting this on a few occasions and not being afraid to make subs at halftime or tell players when they are not performing or what's expectations they must uphold when they pull on the jersey.

 

I'm actually looking forward to see who we are getting and Marco has just been added to the list of potentials.

 

I know we've had our ups and downs, but think about this: Marco Rose. He's got that fire, that intensity we need.  Rose brings that kind of energy we so desire. He's not afraid to play attacking football, get in their faces, win the ball high up the pitch. We need that bite back.
He's proven he can handle big clubs, big expectations, and European nights . He's adaptable, too, which is vital in the Scottish league – you've gotta be able to switch it up.

We need someone who can inject that passion back into the team, get the fans roaring again. Someone who can build a team that's not just winning, but winning with style. Rose could be that guy. He's got the experience, the tactics, and the drive. For me, he's potentially what we need to take us to the next level.

I suppose if Ferguson was to win all games he'd have to be considered 

Yeah, winning all the remaining Europa league matches will mean that he is considered.

Needs to be Barry.

Ferguson hasn’t done his CV any harm

I disagree. Home record grim, and he's been praised for changing things in recent games, but that's only cos he got his tactics so wrong in the first place.

Don't think we're at the stage where it needs to be Barry yet. Needs to keep winning, see how he handles Europe.

 

For me - with the takeover etc, barring a miracle from Ferguson, I.e beating Bilbao, I'd be aiming higher.

The most important thing, surely, is Barry Ferguson's opinion of 'The Banner'

If the opposition's tactics change reaction is needed also if playing below par.

In no particular order:

• Henrik Rydstrom
• Bielsa
• Thiago Motta
• Jesse Marsch
• Russell Martin
• Marco Rose
• Danny Rohl 
• Kieran McKenna
• Wilfried Nancy
• Christian Ilzer
• Raffaele Palladino
• Bo Henriksen

• Matthias Jaissle

• Kjetil Knutsen
• Ralph Hasenhuttl

 

I like Hasenhuttl and would take him first from the list. 

Knutsen could be good as well. 

I certainly dont want Martin. 

 

Bielsa obviously with being at Leeds before may be an outside shout. But a couple of things against him - 1) He still doesnt speak English does he? So he would need 2 interpreters coming north of the border. 2) He likes to operate with a small squad - Given our injury record we'd be better being in a 7 a side league. Plus we would need to borrow Oor Wullie's bucket for the sidelines. But he would be a very interesting appointment.
