The Manager Merry-go-Round

[Frank Bunn]

Because you can see the fracturing of De Zerbi at Brighton. Personally think he's overrated

Brighton under De Zerbi finished 6th last season. It makes you wonder how he would fare at a club that could buy top players rather than sell them.

Yeah he inherited a good team, but the team has also got worse defensively.

He'll slot right in.

You asked for this.

 

[Bostonian]

Yeah he inherited a good team, but the team has also got worse defensively.

That's because it's been a make-shift back four for a lot of the season due to injuries and no constant DM has hurt us.

No Mitoma or March and Adingra missing at times too means we've had next to no width for a lot of the season which is what RDZ needs for his system to flourish.

 

[Buckleys Jocks]

If this eventuates it will be interesting to see how he gets on.

I wouldn't read too much into his disastrous spell at United. He inherited an absolute dumpster fire and it felt like the players never gave him a chance because they knew he was only sticking around for a few months anyway.

The word fraud gets bandied around a lot in football mostly as a joke but Rangnick is the epitome of the word.

Hence why I'm interested to see how he would manage at a more stable club with more professional players at his disposal.

I'm curious as to how much of that failure was due to United just being a shambles and him not having any authority to make lasting changes in an interim capacity....or whether he's just a fraud.

Rangnick is possibly one of those coaches who is credited with being influential without winning trophies. Like Bielsa. It doesn't make them frauds. But his career performance is actually quite good.

He had two spells as manager of RB Leipzig. The first got them promoted into the Bundesliga. The second got them into a Champions League place.

United were 8th when he took over. They went on a good run and at one stage he got them into 4th place. The wheels fell off towards the end of the season and they finished 6th. He never had time to implement a change in tactics or personnel. Good luck trying to get Ronaldo to enforce a Gegenpress! I don't think United brought anyone in during the 2022 January window.

Austria comfortably qualified for the Euros.

We should be all over Amorin. But we arent that smart.

Sounds like he's going to be pretty choosy for his next gig and wants a situation where he's going to have full control on transfers from what I was reading the last 24 hours.

Modest background. He was linked with us to replace Marsch. Underwhelming

Agree, I guess everyone was going to be a step back from Klopp but this is certainly underwhelming.

My fantasy is he will go as well as ETH has after coming from the same league.
