New Manager cards on the table

1. Nagelsmann (Probably a 5% chance)
2. Rodgers (50/50 - his comments were glowing but we can't afford his pay off)
3. Potter (100% he'd come and we could pay him off).

Top 3

Julien Nagelsmann - In demand. If he's good enough for Bayen he's good enough for me. Like his style. Jerry's are all the rage it seems.

Marcelo Bielsa - Leftfield. Love the way his teams play the game. You know you'd get your money's worth. Admired by many, inc Poch. Would love to see what he could do. The Lane would be rocking.

Graham Potter - It would be a major step up and would have to be afforded patience and time to build. Plays on the front foot. Good pedigree in the game. Would that be enough to draw the big names to the club? Only European qualification could allay those concerns.

If Mason pulls a rabbit out of the hat this season and bags top 4 and a trophy Levy will offer him the job. I don't think there would be many complaints if he was to do so, unless it meant losing out on our number 1 target.

Whatever happens we need a different approach. All the managers above have similar traits. Need to stop losing sleep over what the opposition can do and start playing to our own strengths.

We've had it rough!

If he is good enough for Bayern then he will be the Bayern manager next season...

Have a feeling it won't be any of them though. I don't think Levy knows who he wants, or at least he won't when Nagelsmann to Bayern is confirmed.

Jose wasn't sacked because Levy had another one in the bag. He was sacked because things were clearly toxic. My feeling is that Nagelsmann is the one Levy has had his eye on for some time now and the whole Bayern thing has cropped up out of nowhere and taken him by surprise. He's now scrambling, looking at his options as he didn't have a clear No.2. JN or bust.

It's not Bielsa's style. If he wanted a top job he would have done it ages ago. I think he likes the smaller clubs with less PR responsibilities so he can just get on with coaching without being in the spotlight. It's the difference between Poch talking Spanish in interviews but as soon as he came to Spurs, he had to ditch the interpreter. Bielsa is not one to compromise. He's not pliable enough for Levy.

Agreed, which is why I've said previously it won't happen.

As a fan, he'd be my pick.

She would still do a better job than Jose.

Nagglesmann (wont happen)
Rodgers (wont happen)
Ten Hag
Potter
Bielsa (won’t Happen)
Nuno
Klinsmann (prob not a smart hire)

No interest in Sari

I think it will be Ten Hag...... Probably the best overall option.... We seem to have a decent relationship with Ajax and waiting till the end of season is probably a courtesy to them
