    [Albion] Napoli interested in Billy Gilmour **Sold 30/08/24**

    If he could score goals £12m is a joke, English clubs would be queuing up to buy him for £20m. However, a low value sale, with a low value buy-back clause, is possible. Only if Hurzeler doesn’t have Billy in his plans, surprising considering Billy’s passing abilities.

    [Albion] Fabian Hürzeler **SINGED 15/06/2024**

    I’m sure Milk has more information than I’ve found, but there’s an English speaking interview of Hurzeler on YouTube, no obvious language barrier. There’s also this YouTube video discussing his background (he is more German and Swiss than American) and tactics Add this...

    [Football] Club v Country

    Nooo..England can’t win this one, it would wreck Euros 2028! Need to wheel out Skinner and Badiel in 4 years time and it’s much more satisfying to win on home soil. I’d put Albion winning FA Cup or league cup well ahead of England winning Euros in Germany, no contest.

    [Albion] Fabian Hürzeler **SINGED 15/06/2024**

    What’s the rush? Half the squad is on international duty and Hurzeler isn’t likely to want to head to Falmer or Lancing while the Euros are on in his home country (he is not American). No need to panic, let Tony the lizard play his hand. He doesn’t need any help negotiating from anyone on NSC...

    [Albion] Fabian Hürzeler **SINGED 15/06/2024**

    Interesting articles on millerton.de, with detailed analysis of Hurzeler’s FCSP tactics, some of which are adaptations of de Zerbi’s own. The biggest changes are defensively, as a unit, definitely an area where BHA need to improve. Hopefully Hurzeler will bring a good balance between attack and...

    [Albion] Hurzeler or Rydstrom [Potter rules himself out]

    👍I just wanted to add the poll, I couldn’t edit someone else’s post. I know there’s no chance of Russell Martin being appointed, but betting firms still want to take money off anyone willing

    [Albion] Hurzeler or Rydstrom [Potter rules himself out]

    The managerial saga continues. Potter has ruled himself out. Who would you prefer out of the rumoured candidates with shortest odds?

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    I don’t have any information, but I think that Mark Robins should at least be under consideration, given that we’ve been linked with other championship managers.

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    I know there are other candidates, but realistically, as the club is unlikely to stick its neck out and be the first to risk Relationism football in the Premier League, there are 2 main (and jobless) candidates. Which would you prefer? Potter or Cooper?

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    Absolutely no reason to panic, list of potential candidates is huge. Of those linked, I’d rate them in this order. 1) Rydstrom 2) Frank 3) Cooper 4) Potter Let the promoted managers prove their worth with the clubs they got promoted, sink or swim. I’d rather have a manager who has shown some...

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    Europa League was well beyond the clubs expectations, even conference league was a hope, rather than expectation. That is where the club is at if it wants to remain on a sound financial footing. Us fans should be very happy with conference league every few seasons TBH, but as you say, that taste...

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    I’d prefer Thomas Frank, but would settle for Cooper, given how he was able to avoid relegation with virtually a whole new and completely unfamiliar squad in Forest’s promotion season. Cooper and Frank are 2 managers who might stick around for more than 2 or 3 seasons too.

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    Ok, so I should’ve said elite league experience, whatever. Only England, Spain, Italy and Germany qualify. MLS doesn’t 😂

    I didn’t know the full extent of McKenna’s experience until I read this:- https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/kieran-mckenna-ipswich-chelsea-man-utd-brighton-b1160048.html 16 years of coaching experience puts him beyond almost every top tier manager/head coach In terms of longevity. If...

    [Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

    Poch is overrated, hasn’t won anything of note. At least nobody is pretending that Potter is an elite manager. McKenna is presumably the favoured candidate, Potter is back up. The club is willing to take risks with young managers, as well as young players, so BHA do stand a decent chance of...
