Lee Carsley Rumour (12 Viewers)

[Evo1883]

Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia
Italy lost to North Macedonia

I just don't want lee carsely , I think England have come under so much pressure at times from very poor teams in this nations league .. we've consistently been average throughout .. he's not for me

You might want him because Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia.. I'd rather we went with somebody else

[Sick Boy]

Yes, I would be happy with Carsley.

I’d be happy with either of the three front runners as manager, all have their pros and cons.

I'd see Carsley as a bigger gamble due to lack of experience of league management.

I never said I wanted him. My point is higher ranked teams sometimes get beat by lower ranked teams

Carsley would be great. We would be lucky to get him mind. Doesn't he live local to Cov?

Lives in Kenilworth. Does coaching at Gordon’s academy in cov

 

[Briles]

Be handy for loan connections certainly

Id have Carsley over Lampard every day of the week.

I don't understand the apathy towards him, but then it would be boring if we all agreed.

He's coached an exciting Under 21 Team, won a tournament, is spoken about as innovative and an excllent coach by his players (whom have far more knowledge than us fans), is a Head Coach which is what we are after, and has excellent links and contacts in the game.....or alternatively we could have Christine Bleakley's husband.

Whoever it is I will support them, but im certainly not against Carsley.

Also think and people can’t correct me if they think I’m wrong, out of the three I. The odds he’s the only one I wouldn’t see using us as a stepping stone, he’s local to the area and has the motivation to see the job through.

Think Lee would be a clever pick up

 

[Hobo]

I think Lee Carsley would be good. I would rather have him than Frank Lampard.

 

[Monty]

Edin Terzix anyone?

 

[Tommo1993]

Living locally is enough of a reason apparently

 

[Otis]

Damn! Makes me kind of wish I hadn't have moved to Folkestone last year.

 

[Jim]

No one said that’s the only reason

Lee Carsley:

- Highly regarded coach
- Plays an exciting style of football
- Excellent contacts throughout the game
- Won an international tournament with U21s
- Has a connection to the club and local area

Yup. Can see why he’d be an awful choice for a head coach…..

 

[PVA]

I don't get why some people see RVN as a top level appointment but dismiss Carsley out of hand.

To me they're very similar profile. The only difference is RVN has about 20 or 30 more games as a club coach.

Both have excellent experience working with young players, play 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3, play possession based football.

Would you feel as excited about his achievement if it was the Premier league u21 title ?

 

[Tommo1993]

No one said that’s the only reason

And yet it’s a common reason for people wanting him

 

[Evo1883]

Dave sexton won England the euro u21 in 1984 was he a great city manager ?

 

[SkyBlueCharlie9]

Carsley a slight risk if he was offered it (assuming he's interested) but the way he took over after Southgate who had been there for 8 years, quality coach of individual players, young players like him, he's had to play about 30 different players in 4 games and his style of football was positive, plus he's a down to earth level headed calm guy in similar vein to Robins. Lots of positives to be a top contender.

That said Edin Terzix would be a major coup

 

[Jesse Carver]

Edin Terzix anyone?

Would be amazing, think he’s out of our range though. His last game as a manager was the champions league final… He’s been linked to West Ham where he was an assistant under Bilic.

Il say it now for when he's appointed and we can revisit should I be wrong.

- Will play weird lineups
- City wills struggle to defensively see out games
- Won't now how to change a game

Won't be much different to how it's been recently in all honesty , thing is we won't be playing Finland Greece and Ireland who are levels below England, we will play teams that will be organised and will put us under serious pressure and games will be tight

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

None of the options are good, let's be truthfully honest.

This whole thing is depressing the fuck out of me.

 

[long way home]

The betting has the 3 in order Lampard, Carsley and RVN. If they are the 3 in DK mind i would flip the list round. I like Lampard as a fella, don't mind Carsley as a coach but am interested in RVN i think he would bring something different and would peak the fan level.

The most important is the player reaction and Ruud would have the biggest impact on the players in my opinion.

I think it's a pretty big difference that RvN has actually managed a club for a season and been quite successful.

And it's different to England u19s and u21s where you are working part time

England losing 1 in this nations league group is a laugh In itself

 

[Ring Of Steel]

Nobody excites me at all from the names listed, ideally it would be someone young, progressive, hungry, not a “big name” just because they’re… a big name.

is there anything whatsoever in the RVN rumours or is that just people betting and changing odds as a result? It seems way too far fetched, and he’s another one where if he has one good season he’s off, leaving the next guy to start again- I don’t want to be a one season stepping stone.

Nothing in the RvN rumours other than betting odds. All news articles about him have mentioned clubs like West Ham, Wolves, Burnley. He's not coming here.

Don’t know why I’m bleating on, it’s exhausting and I’m bored of the whole thing tbh.

 

[Moff]

Dave sexton won England the euro u21 in 1984 was he a great city manager ?

To be fair to Sexton he had the rug rapidly pulled from under his feet by Jimmy Hill as Chairman due to financial issues, when Garry Thomspon was sold against his wishes, and we allowed virtually a whole first team to run their contracts down and leave.

 

[TomRad85]

I don't think the links are terrible personally, i'm not sure many clubs in our position in The Championship would have the same links. Shows that we are somewhat 'fancied'.

This is a really good point. Actually Sexton would be exactly the sort of head coach that King says he wants. Developed an unparalleled youth team that went on to amass a transfer market value of millions in the early 1980s.

Fair enough

It really wasn’t quite successful. They failed to reach the group stage of the Champions’ League, failed to win the Dutch league and he fell out with club coaches and players. He resigned before the last game (and before they had secured their champs league spot for the next season) citing a lack of backing.

He won 2 trophies didn’t he?

So tempted to give this a like, but still hoping that King hasn't messed up as much as I fear.
