Big salary.

If we use that benchmark we wouldn't go for Motta or even have had Lippi/Conte. Milan wouldn't have had Ancelotti etc.

Our current squad is completely different to what he has at Bologna in terms of characteristics. Zirkzee and Vlahovic are not like for like at all and we don't have anyone with the same qualities as Ferguson (not in terms of ability but a tactically switched on AM with a good engine who can...

If he does a good job with us I don't really care. I'd prefer if he didn't have a connection with Inter but it's not like he would come here and try to fail. Conte would have done the same for us and won the league for Inter. If anything he went overboard when he managed them to dislike us.

I've seen a few people asking about Motta's tactics and thought these videos might be interesting to some (they are quite detailed so others might not think so): The first thing that stands out to me is that our level of fitness is miles off what is needed to play his football. Vlahovic and...

Whoever we get as manager it is going to take some time to change the mentality of this team to sit so deep when they go ahead.

I think we will go for Motta.

Maresca feels far too risky for us given where we are, especially after flopping at Parma. The next appointment is crucial and there has to be an appreciation that we won't change 10 players. We don't have a technical squad to play like Pep. I've never been a fan of Motta but it is hard to...

Really don't see the hype with Motta. I've never been impressed with his teams and hope we avoid him.

Called it: Very predictable

Zidane feels like a big risk to me. He's completely unknown outside of the Real bubble he was in for so long. That Real squad was incredible too. There was a time when we were winning and had a squad of egos where he could have worked well to take us on a level. Now our players seem the...

We can't afford him.

Sounds like they are desperately trying to justify sacking their previous manager for Tuchel now they are out of Europe and trailing in the league.

Gattuso is available.

He did well with Lukaku.

Would be such a Milan before Pioli move though. We really have put ourselves in that position and need to avoid the same mistakes they made.

I wanted Poch in the past too but his time at PSG was very poor and I've changed my mind on him. We need someone to get stuck into the squad and make them put in some effort again. To be honest it is the perfect scenario for Contem although can't see him moving. I don't see Poch as that type of...

I struggle to think of viable alternatives, who could we get? Poch, Tuchel, Zidane, De Zerbi, Mancini are the likely names if we changed. I don't think Zidane would come though.

There are no good options available worryingly. And no Tuchel is not good. What's the rule on Serie A coaches? Can you not coach 2 sides in one season?

I think a big part of the reason we go Italian is that not many non-Italians speak the language which is pretty important for a coach. Also serie A isn't as attractive a league for a foreigner. So the pool of coaching options is small. Allegri isn't going anywhere soon. If we were to look at a...
