Lack of clear options? This simply not true. I agree that those that have been linked to us more frequently in the media, such as Potter and De Zerbi, are such underwhelming options. But there is at least two potential candidates out there, with one being the clear favourite in my opinion, that could take on this job and bring success. When looking for our next manager/head coach, I think it's important to look at others that have brought success. Sir Alex Ferguson had character, personality and a clear philosophy. He broke the dominance in Scotland while also having success in Europe. The same can be said for other managers/head coaches such as Klopp, but obviously not on the same level. But his style of play brought Dortmund a lot of success, and his character and personality captivated his players. Rúben Amorim should be under consideration. He meets the criteria and is proving his worth in Portugal. Not so much in Europe however.
But the clear favourite, and the one candidate we should be doing as much as we can to get, is Simone Inzaghi. Why our fans are not talking about him as the clear favourite is honestly so baffling to me, I really don't understand it. I can't help but think of Silvio Dante's quote from The Sopranos. "I'll tell you what it is, it's anti-Italian discrimination, that's what it is." He not only did a fantastic job with what was a struggling Lazio team, but is now working his magic with a now dominant Inter Milan. When the season is complete, he would have won EVERY trophy there is to win in Italy, while also reaching last years Champions League final and probably should have won against a highly acclaimed City side. He is doing this with players such as Darmian, Luaku, Sanchez etc. Players who were previously considered castoffs by us, and other teams. Not to mention he is breaking records with this side. They are currently scoring high in most noteworthy metrics across the top five European leagues, in scoring, possession, and defence. He is also doing while playing arguably the most exciting style of football in Europe. Simone Inzaghi is by far the best candidate for this job.
