Someone’s requested a bet on him. 28/1 on PaddyPower.

I wonder if enough £££ would convince him to leave the CL football he’s got them into?

I agree that he looks one of the best potential candidates.
How do you know he's one of the 'candidates ?' , your word.

Wonder what the odds were that someone outside of that Croydon place would have been begging to replace De Zerbi with ROY at the end of the season.

This could be a typical Brighton move. Thats where we go fishing.

The only likeable thing about Luton Town.
Not Luton Town!

I suspect the lure of the Premier League outweighs that of even a CL group stage.

And we certainly are a more attractive commodity than Brest*.

(Disappointingly no Finbar Saunders jokes yet).
Depends on the club you're taking to the CL... but yes, in this case I think he'd take the job. Ligue 1 is all kinds of unhealthy and I think a lot of coaches could feel that now is a good time to leave it. Someone like him probably won't get too many chances managing in the PL.

This Brest manager is certainly one of the more titillating rumours doing the rounds.
I mentioned his name a couple of weeks back on here. Brest have had some journey this season in Ligue 1.

What odds are on offer?

Time for his own thread…..

An astonishing 3rd place in Ligue 1 last season with a style very similar to De Zerbi and McKenna. He was given no resources to do this.

Just one season left on his contract over in France.

Before returning to the shop floor, he was Director of Football at Watford when the pandemic hit. This time, there were resources. Spot any familiar names that came through the door when he was DoF?

I have been told catergorically by the GREATEST minds of NSC that managers ONLY with PL experience can manage our club in the PL.

Please stop suggesting other names because we have been told that they will fail - GUARANTEED.

No point assessing him based on their league form, they are famously, very much a cup team.
