Danny Rohl would be great, might be too expensive though as just signed a new deal.

He’s a manager. Which is weird cos he’s got all the same guff around him and I was reliably informed only head coaches could work in that structure.

Wilfried Nancy would be my top choice. Took over Montreal after Thierry Henry and completely turned them around. Then moved to Columbus who aren’t one of the big clubs in MLS (no major signings like a Messi or Carlos Vela) and immediately turned them into the best team in the league. Then finished 2nd this last season despite losing their best midfielder.

Can we come out to Nancy Boy by Placebo? If so I’m in.

Who is going to be advising King on this?

Given he knows nothing about football I don't see him picking some up and coming foreigner as he's more likely to be seduced by a big name. Welcome Frank.

I’ve seen one article saying Lampard is the favourite. Although I think it’s the right time to part ways with Robins based on Lampards managerial abilities and achievements I can’t help but think what was the point in sacking Robins if you’re going to replace him with Lampard.

He seems data driven not looking to meet idols?

Look at Man Utd over the last 11+ years:
- Appoint a 'world-class' manager to replace previous.
- Replace existing players with new managers choices at vast cost.
- Team fails to live up to expectations.
- Sack manager.
- Repeat ad nauseum.

This is potentially what awaits unless Doug King is either very talented or very lucky.

He was handed the best coaching team outside the PL and a £35m war chest. I’d say he’s used up all his luck.

Man U recruitment has long been an issue though.

We on paper have a structure in place that should keep things consistent even with manager changes

Gary O'Neil apparently on the brink should Wolves lose at home to Saints this weekend... maybe a bit too ambitious?
