I don't think they'll hire a novice in their position.
Ryan Giggs | Interviewed for Wales job
- Thread starter FC Ronaldo
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Who is this guy?

Whoever takes over at Swansea, it'll be a tough job.
And if Giggs were to fail (and the next manager, Giggs or whoever, probably will), it won't look good on his CV.
The best thing he can do is take a low profile job, where the pressure is low and chances of failure are low. He can build his confidence, learn his trade and then move up in 18 months (assuming he does a good job).
If his first job (maybe Swansea) goes wrong, I can't see him even wanting to get another management job.

This would be a terrible move for Giggsy. Their squad is rubbish and they will be wanting him out if he doesn't get instant results. Similar to Solskjaer at Cardiff.
This is a guy who wanted his first job to be manager of Manchester United. I don't think hes looking for a low profile job with less pressure. If he thinks he's good enough to take the United job then he won't be worried over Swansea
Understandable. For us he's ryan giggs. For them he's terry/gerrard.
So Ryan is from Wales. Swansea is a welsh club. If you are from Wales, you like Wales. You want to be a manager in Wales. If you are a welsh club. You want a manager born in Wales.
I see where this is heading. Matter of days.

They'll probably hire someone who can take them up instantly.
They'll either go for Giggs or Coleman imo. Neither would be the right move.
Guidolin shouldn't be getting sacked in the first place.
No job will be less pressurising for him. Even if he takes over York City, he will be expected to top the league in which they play.
I think he'd be better taking over a good Championship side and bringing them up than heading into freefall with a struggling PL team.
Why do people think the Championship is easier to manage in? its such an unpredictable league. He'll have worse players and worse resources. And he'll be expected to make a challee for promotion to further his career.
At Swansea or Stoke - all he has to do is avoid relegation this season for it to viewed as a moderate success.

I used to have inside knowledge (made a decent amount on Shelvey's move) as I was friends with some of the players, but they've all moved on so I'm in the dark. The word is he's a goner though. If it's true it's the wrong move.
Quite a few in my group want Coleman. I think he's done an absolutely fantastic job with Wales, but that tactical set up won't work at Swansea as our defense is worse than the national team. It's an unpopular opinion with some of the supporters but if Guidolin goes, I'd honestly be happy with Kenny Jackett who is a free agent. Very risky though, probably more risky than Giggs.
Bob Bradley? It'll end in tears.
Bob Bradley? What the feck?!
He's a twice failed assistant manager, why would any PL club appoint him as manager!?
Perhaps a reality check for those who were inexplicably calling for him to take over United...
If he's so keen to manage I'd expect him to take over a club soon though. And I reckon League 1 would be a wiser starting point than the chaotic Championship or the PL where I really can't imagine any club appointing him as manager.

Don't worry Giggs. Sunderland job may become available this season, soon.
Having looked at Swansea fan forums they appear to be extremely relieved that Giggs didnt get the job.
Of course. Giggs was a great player and nothing more than that, he's not even a decent human being.
He could be attractive to a Championship side in that he could be a good gateway to loaning some of our best talents.
Looking forward to see how the Swansea fan forums will appear when they are relegated.
They wisely decided against Giggs then.
Good for Giggs as Swansea are heading down anyway.
I think you may have stumbled on Giggsey next gig...
Starting to think Giggs just wants the United job and nowt else
So, Swansea next season, then.
I've been of that view for a while now. Yes, he'll say all the right things about being prepared to work wherever but i don't believe him.

I think if Giggs is waiting to be appointed manager of Man Utd he may be waiting quite some time. He isn't of course and will try and get a job elsewhere - whether any other club would be prepared to make him their manager is another question altogether - mind you Tim Sherwood did.
He should take over at Stockport and try and get them back in the league.
He'll end up at Cardiff, Trollope is getting nowhere with them and whilst they aren't promotion contenders they could and should be pushing for playoffs.
Not if the England's former manager has a say on that
He should take the Villa job. Less pressure then a dodgey prem club like swansea who could easily get relegated this ruining his coaching career before its begun. At Villa he could easily sort them out without the stress of a potential relegation as its already happened.
No one will sort out Villa unless the people at the top stop being absolutely clueless.
I think it is rather that Swansea didn't want him.
