Tomo 21,751 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 3 hours ago, Pizy said: So many conflicting reports. Reliable English guys saying we most likely won’t be making a quick appointment and will wait until summer, reliable Euro guys saying Nagelsmann could come in quickly. I tend to think it’ll be the latter. The timing is way too aligned with Nagelsmann becoming available. If we want to give ourselves ANY chance against Madrid we cannot go into that tie with an interim coach with zero experience. On the other hand, what if something mad happens at the end of the season and a world class manager suddenly becomes available? Like, what if Liverpool have a totally shambolic finish to the already shit season they’re having and he decides his cycle there has come to an end? Sure it’s an extreme long shot, but it may be wise to wait. Klopp won't come to us even if he leaves, he's by all accounts one of those snobs who want clubs with "history".

I think we need some of that here. Isn't Nagglesman a big fan of JT? Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he has a soft personality. When Tuchel got the better of him in 2020 and the whole Mane locker room bust up earlier this year. Literally the only difference between him and Potter is that Nagelsmann actually plays a ST. Both play football with tactics that are jumbled every match week.

didi007 69 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 7 hours ago, King Kante said: Agreed. It'll be a manager who can come in immediately otherwise they would've had him see out the season. Additionally, I doubt it is a manager who was available prior to the break, so that rules out Zidane, Poch and Enrique. Only two managers fit this is JN and Conte. I cannot see the club going to Conte in a million years unless the board are p*ssed off with the players. So, it has to be presumed it is JN. Pochettino.

Fernando 6,585 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 17 hours ago, NikkiCFC said: Disagree. Even if all the managers in the world were available Nagelsmann and Enrique would be top of my list. I get Nagelsmann but why Enrique? Total clueless with Spain at the world cup. I'm intested in knowing why people not big on Pochetino. The owner clearly wants long term as well youth in the mix. And Pochetino is perfect with that. Plus with Enzo in the lineup I'm sure Pochetino would love to work him. I see what Todd wants and to me Pochetino ticks all the boxes. xPetrCechx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,945 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I just want a damn manager who has EVERY SINGLE PLAYER on the pitch knowing precisely what their role is and has it pounded into their brains what patterns to play so that it’s second nature. Like City and Arse have. Their players seem to know exactly where to be and exactly which passes to play all the time. Basically a maniacal, micro-manager type guy who is obsessed with perfection on the pitch. No more passive, quiet, puzzled looking guys. Nagelsmann seems to be that from what I’ve seen.

Then we better stay away from Nagelsmann. What I heard from Bayern-fans he kinda outsmarted their own players, leaving them confused. I guess his problem was that he is way too intelligent for the average football player and couldnt break it down for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sports interviews are super boring anyway. If any player says something honest or exciting, it becomes worldwide scandal(Ronaldo, Lukaku). Bruno was Potter’s right hand, he is now interim coach for a few days, of course he will not make waves. Vegetable 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milka 3,393 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Potter at Chelsea was something like Moyes at United - you want him to succeed, but you just see that he is not at that level. Fernando, Johnnyeye and xPetrCechx 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with Nagelsmann is that, like Potter, he changes both tactics and players too often. Much of the criticism against him from Bayern fans was that they did not build any continuity at all, which is one of the problems we had with Potter. As for the mico-manager type of coach obsessed with perfection, you exactly described Enrique. That's why I lean more towards Enrique than Nagelsmann.
