Just to round the thread off. Not sure about RvN really.

Who's next? Quite a bit of talk about Xavi lately...

Potter not particularly exciting.

Competent would be be an upgrade never mind exciting.

Finally.

Gutted it didn’t work out. I was really looking forward to it once he was appointed. But he should have gone in the summer.

So we didn't need to lock this thread after all

Will anything change? Absolutely not.

I think Howe's hit his ceiling at Newcastle.

Gutted, managers aren’t given 5 minutes these days. Deserved more time imo

GarethSouthgate · 2024-10-28T12:00:40+0000

Ineos clearly actioned this after reading my comments about them on the club thread.

He had to go really, it's a shame and I suspect we'll be here again in 18 months time.

Can we sell players in the summer to support the new manager?

Never nice to see a manager sacked. Players will still be the same though.

I am sure where ever he goes he will do well though.

Ayahuasca · 2024-10-28T12:02:20+0000

Ruud awakening.

uber soldat · 2024-10-28T12:03:00+0000

Very strange decision, having backed him by letting him buy players he wanted in the summer he should have been given until Christmas at the very least.

The_One · 2024-10-28T12:03:15+0000

Gutted he’s gone

I think he'll end up back at Ajax.

Doesn't fill you with confidence that they know what they're doing does it?

GarethSouthgate · 2024-10-28T12:05:20+0000

Hopefully Dalot won't miss an open goal now

The_One · 2024-10-28T12:06:53+0000

Is it Southgate time

If he does I'll request a name change to ETH

adam must surely have dibs on that

Droolinggimp · 2024-10-28T12:08:25+0000

Hopefully Ruud can see that we have some very talented youngsters in the squad and actually let them play

Joking aside, I think they have fumbled the manager situation, but Dan Ashworth is not some clueless idiot, I can't believe he will mess things up like the previous regime.

Nothing would surprise me though

I don't think there's an appetite to keep RvN on, they've already made it clear he's interim until a replacement is found.

Options -

Ruben Amorim - not likely to leave mid season
Southgate - we'll gloss over that one
Xavi - could be interesting, his wife posted a picture of him with his son in a Man Utd kit the other day...
Thomas Frank - would be a very interesting appointment
McKenna - doubt it
Potter - might be a good fit under Ashworth but would be risky
