Surely a wiser move would be someone with a bit of experience of the English game. Iike Pulis or Monk? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can’t trust the bookies but when Monk was sacked, the likes of Pulis, Cook, Cowley, McLaren, Johnson were at the top of the odds list. This time round the top 5 are currently Fink, Poyet, Morais, Olsen, Jemez. So it would suggest we are going in a different direction now, especially if the link up to WBD is true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed i think it happens more often in Europe where clubs target and buy the players and the coach just coaches. Something British managers aren’t always keen to do and likely why Pulis wanted out 2 weeks ago 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The experience he has had with Bruce, Monk and Pulis will probably swerve DC from appointing a British Manager for the foreseeable future? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
