Michael laudrup ain't in work at the moment.

Festa ffs?
What experience does he have of managing any club, let alone a high-profile club with fans demanding and expecting promotion every season?

Hoddle
Zola
Houghton

Head coach at a third tier Italian club, to answer my own question. Prime candidate for us then, eh?

With Cellino putting finances in order we should see significant interest in the job. Dyche, Poyet or a younger up and coming manager. Lennon needs a challenge too.

He's already stated he wants a coach, hence why I think Hoddle would be appropriate.

Hoddle's yesterday's news.

Hughton Norwich you fooking idiots!!!!

Mackay's another freebie. Can't see this club progressing until we acquire a manager currently in work who has something to prove.

Hoddle for me too. Said it a while back.

Definitely not keegan for me, nor Zola.

What we need is a manager with real experience of managing a BIG club that's where we have gone wrong in the past
So we are very limited I did suggest Dykes and Howe but could they cope with are demands no I don't think so
Who do I suggest Hoddle NO
Erikson No
Strachan possibly though not 100%
In truth I don't know simple as that

Someone suggested Michael Laudrup.
I think that's a very good shout. He's played
In Italy and so knows the mentality of a Cellino
Type and I'm pretty sure he speaks Italian.
Oh and he tries to play football the right way.
I reckon he'd be good. Whoever suggested him earlier
nice one

Laudrup is a good shout! could we get him tho?

Laudrop would be an excellent choice in my opinion far better than Srachan

Cellino gets through 'coaches' at the rate of 1.8 per year. I doubt Strachan would want to give up a cushy little number as Scotland manager for a 6.7 month stint as Cellino's puppet!

Hughton would be another McDermott. Not for Leeds United.

Laudrup would be a cracking capture, a real statement.

I think Festa will soon be in, as caretaker only.

Brian McDermott will go elsewhere and probably be a success. This job proved too difficult for him, nice bloke and all, his confidence went with all the turmoil. The job proved too big for him. I wish him well.

Folk have to understand, this is Leeds United. If they come here as a manager they'll see we are a demanding lot and there is a pressure.

All the big clubs have it.

It is going to be interesting seeing how Mr Cellino copes with the pressure too.

Cellino will love it!

"The job proved too big for him".....

that's been the same story for every manager at ER for the last decade... poisoned chalice.

I'd be happy with any manager who signs players who have the courage to play the ball in midfield... I'd even be happy to take McAllister back and give him another chance.

We're never gonna get promoted with these scared kittens and headless chickens we currently have in midfield.

I'm not having a go at McDermott either, he made what were on paper very decent signings, but they've turned out kak.

Massimo..

I think you can go back further, there's only been three big enough, Jock Stein, Brian Clough and Howard Wilkinson - Since Don Revie and in fairness to Stein and Clough - only Howard Wilkinson achieved what he was brought in to do..........!!

Are you suggesting Jimmy Adamson wasn't fit for purpose?
