Blue and white Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Clement would be the ideal choice and he'd be a big statement of intent, especially when you consider his record working under Ancelotti at big clubs and all the interested clubs in him. If there's any truth in the rumours, it could well be when you consider new owners tend to bring in their own man eventually, then someone significantly better with pulling power to bring in better quality players would be ideal. Clement ticks all the boxes. Whoever get's him will be a club going places. Absolutely spot on fella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Would you really call Clement a serial job chaser as Nixon claims this person to be? Not really sure what he means by that. Could be that he means the fella as had a few top jobs in various roles or that the fella is being chased or linked with a lot of jobs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 If the club is moving forward by having a style of play as opposed to players capabilities, ie, signing players to fit a certain style, then I don't think that the change of coach / manager has to be done immediately, if I am right ( big ask ) the coach / manager will fit the style, here's hoping. If Chansiri is genuine and serious about promotion around our 150th anniversary and about turning us into a genuine play-off/promotion contender. Then we need to make a statement either by bringing in a top manager/coach and/or by bringing in some of the most sought after players and proven players at this level and some top youngsters. If Chansiri is as ambitious as he seems then I would imagine he wouldn't want to stand still and if a opportunity arises where we can bring in better to accelerate things then I would imagine he would consider making the best decision for his business and our club in order to realistically realise his ambition of getting us into the top flight.

FreshOwl Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I support Clement is not a cosmopolitan type manager, or a manager of any ilk for that matter. flipping better not be Robson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0114 Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I doubt Clement is the guy we are chasing but couldn't fault the idea of his appointment. Top coaches really seem to be the way forward. Karanka, Sherwood, Howe have all been great young coaches who have changed the perception of a manager. The likes of your Warnocks, Megsons, Billy Davies are dying out as tactically the Championship is become harder. Clement would be a great appointment, I just would imagine he'll end up with Derby.

He's been linked with a few in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest conisbrough Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 If Gray was to be dismissed from club I am certain it would have already happened. From appointments made it is clear there is ambition to improve youth of the club and academy coaching even though we have improved considerably in this area in last 18 months and personnel brought in were superior to what we had previously. Gray is a decent coach and he had to work with limited talent and devised set up to get the best out of them. If meeting was to discuss budget surely all members of committee would be involved, otherwise it suggests Roeder nothing more than scout. Gray clearly has his limitations in widespread contacts in game and not certain coaching talent around him adds anything to the whole. Is it possible Chansiri is trying to add to his coaching staff or replace some of them and Gray is resisting this change. Only reason I can see to support a possible change in head coach at this stage. I did hear from Wednesday staff 3 weeks ago that more coaching staff would be recruited to help Gray on lines of continental model. This would be specialist coaches for all aspects of game. Had thought it referred to appointment of Hill but maybe was not the situation. Appointment of Roeder does not sit well with others who have been appointed and positive off field actions taken by Gray. At the moment it does not seem to gel as one.
