Managerial Thread - 24/25 Season - Lolst Ham United

I could see them wanting a 1 year extension so he’s not a lame duck going into any potential end of season games next year, but the problem there is I doubt he signs a 1 year extension and instead demands 2-3 years.

Curious, why do you think they’d fear a lame duck manager?

EDIT: Apart from fearing the players decide they don’t want to play for him.

Given the locker room issues, I think it’s an entirely reasonable fear that if next season plays out like this he’s a lame duck going into an FA cup final and players are just gonna ignore any game plan he comes up with/have issues training well.

Obviously that says a lot (not positive) about the players themselves, but I don’t know how anyone could watch United and not be afraid of that happening.

I watch United and I’m not afraid. In fact I’m quite hopeful it happens.
 
Would be much more interested in Pep if his next job was in the NBA

Solid move for him. I think Leicester is a club he will thrive at personally.

I think he's a good manager who came into a toxic situation in Chelsea. If he had joined at the time Poch did, he would likely have had more success. Trying to manage 45 egos and constant turmoil was above his head though.

For sure. It was also just a huge contrast to the club culture he had at Brighton. Probably came a little too soon for him.

Leicester feels like a natural fit all around.
 
Apparently Potter isn’t taking the Leicester job. Cooper is

I feel old. @Evilo must feel like a grandpa now.

I remember how hyped I was when he became the BuLi's youngest player ever...on the plus side, I've finally aged into my blood pressure & girls no longer get mad at me for waking up before 6 :laugh:

That attitude might be why he wasn’t called up by Nagelsman

Like I said, it's hard to bring Mats along unless you're going to start him...and I'm not sure he had enough left in the tank to start. He had some great games down the stretch...and some games where he looked like he was gassed.
