So Who Next?

Postby Niall Quinns Discopants » Mon Sep 20, 2021 12:02 pm

I mean Pep stated that he is about to leave anyways after his contract runs out. Then his latest comments and I get the feeling he is not happy with the transfer activity. I think it's more or less guaranteed he is leaving after this season.

So where do we go from there? Who is next in the line? Half the people here keep screaming for him to be sacked yet I don't see any names mentioned. You just can't get rid of someone without thinking someone better. So who is better than Pep?

No one thought Thomas Tuchel would do as well as he has, so maybe don’t focus on a big name.

It will be a in house appointment to try appease this group of players but someone expected to fail so we can usher in another big name with a different vision.

Depending on how they perform at their respective clubs it will be Vieira, Arteta or Kompany.

Another name to throw into the in-house mix is Ronny Deila. Highly thought off by the City Group.

I would temp a german, to be honest. Flick comes to mind.
Tuchel, if he will be available at that time.

Rodgers, in all fairness, is a bottler. His European record is shite.

I wouldn't like the job of trying to find a replacement for the best in the business.

If he decided to leave - I obviously hope that's no time soon (which should go without saying really, but hey ho...), I'd actually be lost if I was tasked with this job. Conte plays a very different style, as do other managers, so this shite point I saw spouted that we're set up to holistically move forward would be null and void. He also seems to fall out and move on quite regularly so we'd be finding a new style and new manager again most likely.

I'm sure the club would look to see what managers try to play the game in the same way as Pep, so they're bound to be looking at Brendan Rogers, but that doesn't fill me with hope.

I suppose what I'm hoping for is that by the time he leaves there's a stand-out candidate out there who can take the reigns for another few years and try and keep this momentum going. I don't think there is right now.

No way will we be going in-house Kompany Arteta etc way too big a job for any novice. We have to be looking- Pep's latest prima donna rant following on from him deciding to tell the world that he was off says all is not well. Said it a few times now but Conte is currently available and I would be looking at him with s pre- contract before OGS gets the bullet. Maybe its a poisoned chalice trying to follow Pep much like the red shite with Ferguson, but the Spafia need to be looking at succession planning

Couldn’t discount the club going for someone like Zinedine Zidane with his CL record.

When Pep leaves, dare I say we’ll see more academy kids getting chances in the first 11.
