Managerial Thread - 24/25 Season - Lolves/Lolthampton

[bluesfan94]

Old season ended, onto the new thread. Who's the first EPL manager fired? No, EtH does not count unless he makes it to August. I think Eddie Howe could be on the hot seat. Lopetegui is always a good guess, although West Ham may not be the type to make a rash decision. Interestingly, I think that Thomas Frank, for all his plaudits, could be on the hot seat after finishing in 16th. And obviously, if he survives, EtH needs to do something. My dark horse manager on the hot seat is Ange.

This will also very likely be Pep's last season managing. We have new managers at Liverpool, Chelsea, Brighton (eventually), and West Ham.

I eventually believe that Klopp and Pep will take over their nations' international squads, respectively. And a big part of Pep leaving will be due to Man City's corruption being exposed, maybe not by FA or UEFA standards, but by journalists and newspapers.

Former Barca B and now former Las Palmas manager Garcia Pimienta will manage Sevilla next season. Sevilla seems a bit of a poisoned chalice at the moment.

Some reports that if ten Hag is sacked, RDZ would be their leading candidate.

Tudor had a good 3 months, turned the team around - then saw his favorite player leave (Kamada).
Apparently got into a confrontation regarding the transfers with Lotito, Lotito's cronies (Lazio Ultras) started going at Tudor - and Tudor left.

GL next Lazio manager.

Kamada asked for a one-year contract extension, an inadmissible request.

Kamada blew chunks, he had no business expecting to stay at Lazio. If that was the reason that's stupid but Tudor never struck me as the brightest guy.

He had an option to extend the contract by 3 years at pre-established figures. At the time of the meeting to exercise the option he demanded a new contract (for just one year) plus a signing bonus of 2.5M. In this way Lazio, if they had wanted, would not even have been able to sell him but only probably lose him for free. Lotito is crazy and that's a fact, but he is very far from being stupid.

I was talking about Tudor. Lotito is shrewd.

I fully understand why Sarri left

I don't care for Lazio, Verona, Parma and Bergamo

I would feel really sad for you guys if you end up with Rydström. Doesn’t sound likely he would get a work permit though.

I like Hurzeler

I like Hurzeler

I don't hate Hurzeler. There was a moment last week where Steve Coopers name kept coming up, that did not excite me at all.

 

[robertmac43]

No official club announcement yet (I expect that comes tomorrow), but Fabian Hürzeler will be the new Mananger in Brighton.

Contract aside, Kamada was absolutely vital since Tudor came in - played every game and looked revitilazed.
