Terminally Yellow 2,614 Posted June 21, 2020 I can't see Carvalhal being a Webber sort of appointment. I would expect that if Farke were to move on this summer, we would see a like for like replacement - someone known to bring players through the youth system, play a particular style of football and able to develop players in his team. Not sure that fits Carvalhal's abilities to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keith Scott 295 Posted June 21, 2020 It's only right the club start looking at potential replacements. Farke has failed miserably this season and really been shown up, completely lacking in his in game management, zero motivational skills, and tactically naive. A poor start in the championship next season should see the end of him. However, Carlos Carvahal? No thanks!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uncle Fred 526 Posted June 21, 2020 We are coming to the end of the Farke era, he failed spectacularly this season and it’s in the best interest of the club to start to look for the next chapter in the club’s journey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,736 Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) The article literally starts by saying that reports 'are understood to be totally wide of the mark'. Farke won't be sacked, and would only leave if a decent Bundesliga side came in for him, and has he really done enough this season to justify that? I don't think he has, in all honesty. He's like the coaching version of Ben Godfrey: clearly has quality and lots of potential, but has shown himself to be naive this season and needs more time before he's ready to move to a big club.

CANARYKING 720 Posted June 21, 2020 No smoke without fire, cracks are appearing. If we continue on Fridays form I can see the call for a change gathering momentum, not sure about Carvalhal though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonyc 6,145 Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) Agree @CANARYKING, no smoke indeed. And you have to wonder how this story has got out, if it was indeed intended (my intuition is that it was). Daniel Farke has just spent 2/3 months back in Germany, who knows, perhaps that has given him some time for reflection or his family want him to be back there (the biggest personal factor I am sure). Time away from the normal day to day provides a strange time of reflection for anyone. I would not be surprised at all that his 'journey' might be coming to an end, though I would feel great sadness too, mixed with praise and gratification for what he has brought to our club. I think this weird story might have some legs in that we are sounding out folk in any event. Perhaps the players can sense it? I felt our performance against Southampton was very out of character. This story 'could' make sense. Edited June 21, 2020 by sonyc Of not If Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 4,169 Posted June 21, 2020 It would be silly if we weren’t doing some contingency planning - there will be precious little time between this season and next, however it pans out - but whether this would be the guy we’d go for is anyone’s guess.

keelansgrandad 6,680 Posted June 21, 2020 Why wouldn't DF look at a nice job in his home country and if there is some movement then we would have to be looking quickly. There isn't going to be much of a close season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 5,151 Posted June 21, 2020 I'd feel a lot more comfortable about this had Webber commited to us long term. We are definitely coming into the twilight of Webber's time with us and who knows who will replace him and who the new SD will want as their head-coach. Hopefully it will be Farke but we probably have to accept that it won't be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mason 47 2,024 Posted June 21, 2020 Farke was more keen on being a DoF before he became a coach, I always had a sneaky feeling he would move up when Webber left and Riemer or another young coach would take over the playing side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 5,151 Posted June 21, 2020 That would depend on us appointing Farke in that role faster than a Bundesliga club does as their coach. Better still let Farke do both roles with us. Why pay 2 people to do the job of 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To then go into Premier League with no financial backing from board and just a couple of freebies with dubious injury records and a few loan players who don’t even get into their parent teams first 11, is it any surprise this season has been an abject failure? Sure Farke has been frustrating in his stubbornness with team selection and ineffectiveness to make proactive changes with subs but given the resources provided even Klopp would have struggled. Norwich could appoint 100 new managers but until there is a change at the top, the club will never progress and is just going through the motions, which may satisfy enough fans to maintain the status quo! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
