What type of manager do we want?

Postby UFGN » Fri Apr 20, 2018 7:43 pm

What qualities are most important to you when you think about who you want to be the new manager?

How important is it that he has previous success at a high level?

What type of approach does this current squad need to get the best out of them.... or alternatively do you want the new man to come in with a chainsaw and replace half the team?

Is it important that he's a long term replacement?

Anyone but Brendan.

Henry with his Welsh coaching badges would do fine.

I spoke to a utd fan today who described Mourinho as George Graham without the charm on £9M a year

Fair comment I think

Could you even imagine if he came out of retirement and managed us? Never would happen, but man that would stir up the world.

Lol, I'd say so my self.

I just hope the club does not let us down with its choice. Bringing in Brendan or Ancelloti will ruin everything.

I want a rocket up arses type. I want someone screaming orders from the sidelines.

I want a tactician who has dossiers on opponents and plans tactics based on who we are playing. I want to see clipboards/ipads with tactics at pitch side. I want to see a sub come on and it be obvious that everyone in the team immediately know what that change means.

I want to see a drilled defence with more protection from the midfield.

I want to see our attack varied and have a game plan on how to beat an opponent.

I want to see us coming out of the tunnel like we were going to war, rather than the nicey-nicey enya factor we’ve seen recently.

The 1998 Arsenal was probably the best i’ve ever seen. It combined the best of graham’s side with the best of wenger’s.

I want a manager who has a combination of Graham’s on field discipline and organisation coupled with Wenger’s flair and freedom in attack.

It is almost as if Graham and Wenger ended their Arsenal careers as the extremes (all organisation/discipline and lacking flair or all flair and lacking organisation/discipline) and I want someone smack-bang in the middle.

First and foremost, someone tactically strong. Someone who can bring sense and cohesion to how we play.
