Potter had a glow up but crumbled at Chelsea. The scrutiny would be even greater at UnitedI think Potter will be chosen by Jim. And I think we'll be pleasantly surprised by the outcome.

I suppose in some ways Conte would be a clear change of tack. The club arguably keeps trying to find long-term, Fergie-style managers who can completely transform the club from top to bottom. With Conte you're essentially throwing the long-term plan out the window in the hope of some short-term success. Maybe not the worst idea. Didn't end well at Chelsea...but still delivered a title.Need to learn from the Rangnick debacle and bring in someone with personality who can get a reaction from the players, even if it's only till the end of the season. Probably has to be Conte.
Man manages to sort out the dressing room by simply overwhelming them with a deluge of his bullshit stories.Give it Rodgers.
I think Carrick has more about him than Solskjaer for that to happen, but if it does we go again. I feel like his ability as a player gives him a qualification not many other managers have, how to control a game in midfield. The right DOF is just as important at this point, Carrick will do as long as we replace Murtough properly.A depressingly realistic scenario is Carrick does surprisingly well, gets the club competing for CL football, gets the job full-time on a kneejerk basis, then flops afterwards as the long-term realities of managing the team start to set in, basically like what happened with Ole.
Exactly this. People dont understand that any manager would fail at this club because its rotten from top to bottomDoesn't matter anymore. Get Guardiola or Klopp and see them fail at the club. The core is rotten and plastering the cracks just won't do it.
Exactly. This club is a mess and anyone who has a sense of pride in themselves should stay far away from it until the structure changes.What manager would even take the job at this toxic, incompetently run club? The only thing in it for them is a big payoff when they get sacked for inevitably failing like every other manager for a decade.

He nearly diedIs Wenger still alive?
Nonsense what you mean is why bad manager will end up in this position.It doesn't actually matter as long as the rest of the club has no direction. There's no plan in place and any manager coming here will end up in the same spot a year or two from now.
This is just BS, players are replaced, some of them have high potential, but players can't perform without a manager who don't shit his pants and has a clear vision how to play.Doesn't matter anymore.

Ange is in his first season at the club when players actually put in the most effort. Evidenced by ETH finishing 3rd, getting to the FA Cup Final and also and winning the League Cup.This is just BS, players are replaced, some of them have high potential, but players can't perform without a manager who don't shit his pants and has a clear vision how to play.
Sure appointing manager is not always easy. But it's the manager which brings the game and good times back again. Look at Ange, jsut a good manager selection and they are flying. WOn't win the title but lost their best player and still can do stuff with average replacements.
Simeone
Conte
I would take any of those right now.
There's no excuse for Ten Hag producing crap football from this team week in week out
All of the other clubs performing well have an actual structure to the footballing side of the club. They recruit players in a coherent manner to ensure that the squad can play a defined style of football. Allowing Ten Hag to dictate most of the recruitment, as an alternative to Woodward dictating it, has just led to a random assortment of players with no sense of identity or style. City, Ajax, Barcelona, Bayern, Brighton etc. all have a footballing structure focused around playing a certain type of football and recruit players to fit the system. No rational club would've spent £100m on Antony or even £55m on Mason Mount for a role he can't play.Hate this excuse as it's just the same rubbish people come out with trying to support Ten Hag.
Give him time, it's the boards fault. It's nonsense. Every other club can bring in managers who somehow manage to get their players on board and playing.
He wasn't actually that bad at Sunderland but yes, not exactly shown he's a top class manager. Would just be good to see someone who doesn't take any crap in the mangers job.Can’t ever remember him being a good manager though. What was he like at Sunderland/Ipswich? Theirs a reason people like him and Neville are in punditry. They’re good at talking and criticising but can’t manage themselves.
No I just don't see how anyone can really succeed without us having a proper structure in place where stuff like recruitment is concerned.Nonsense what you mean is why bad manager will end up in this position.
Why would Simeone come here ?Simeone
Conte
de Zerbi
Frank
Potter
McKenna
I would take any of those right now.

I thought Zidane has said he doesn’t want to come to England?Zidane. Anyone else I don't give a shit about and won't be supportive.
