Could be a swap.

[Crabbycanary3 994]

We'll soon know, if Farke is omitted from the post match press conference.......

[Tetteys Jig 851]

Lol, maybe Farke will be tired of all the **** with Emi and Todd and co and just go

Why would he be? An abject relegation from the PL on your CV is not a great career move.

Didn't stop Schalke appointing Wagner.

He left them 4 months before they were relegated.....

[Capt. Pants 5,014]

They were down before then.

Hope so, getting compensation for him would be ideal.

The days of coaches staying for long periods has gone.

Maybe DF going to Schalke wouldn't be a bad thing.

Freshen things up.

And who would you like brought in? I really haven't a clue. Mark Robins is doing ok at Coventry

[Mello Yello 2,573]

I would think Daniel wouldn't turn it down if approached by Shalke.....

After how the appointment of Wagner, who had an almost identical CV to Farke (Dortmund II > unexpected Championship promotion > poor Premier League relegation), has gone wrong, you would've thought they wouldn't try the same again. 

In fact, Wagner's CV was arguably better than Farke's because at least he stayed up in the first Premier League season.

It needs freshening up and I'd go after Eddie Howe. 

Whether he'd want to come to a club that never really invests in the team and a team that will become weaker than when we got promoted is another thing.

The days of expecting instant results and changing managers as soon as you lose a game or after a couple of games into a season should be long gone. Unfortunately, people have crazy expectations and think sacking the manager after a few poor games is a good idea. It isn't. Stability is what will breed success, changing managers every season is stupidity. The argument that "I'm not saying every season, just this season" will likely be made now, then next season, then the season after and so on, much like addicts say "just one more". (I am not aiming this at you or even our fans really, just football fans in general who call for the manager to leave insanely early).

Why not try for Pochettino? Its worth investing in a great coach more than players. He might be beyond our means but Leeds got Bielsa.

Eddie Howe plays the game we like.

I agree stability should be a priority. But it isn't anymore. Schalke got rid of Wagner sharpish and I imagine DF will be one they are considering.

If you think about it, as much as we sacked Hughton, Neil, Lambert walked away from us just when it looked like we were creating something. Bond did it as well.

The coach is far more important than any player.

[ALBOWLLY 15]

I'd hope not. Remember two years ago, Daniel Farke was possibly twenty minutes from the sack before the equaliser at Portman Road. From then on there was no looking back. Despite today's disappointment Norwich are already better off than at this stage in 2018-19. Keeping Daniel Farke is vital.

Eddie Howe maybe but there is no way Delia will spend the money needed to get in Poch

Are we better off? We had players wanting to play for us. Now some don't want to.

Pochettino was reputed on £8M a year at Spurs. Apparently he is still being paid by them.

Delia was quite happy to pay that amount for one player.

Don't you think the players who want to leave might stay and others come?

[Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,627]

Is the suggestion that Mauricio Pochettino, one of the world's most sought after unemployed managers right now, might want to work in the Championship a serious one?

[Michael Wynless Jones 161]

Please tell me the Poch comments aren't serious 😂. There's as much chance of him wanting to come here as there is Farke being anywhere near Schalkes shortlist.

Yes. You won't know until you ask him.

If he is sought after, why is he out of work? Maybe he is waiting for the big job, I don't know. But have a chat with his agent.

Why is Ancelotti at Everton? Surely not a job you would have thought was for him.

I never imagined any Norwich player would interest Barcelona.

Everton are a considerably bigger club than Norwich.

Suggesting that Pochettino may be interested in Norwich is like suggesting we make a move for players like Dele Alli, John Stones and Julian Draxler because they're all apparently for sale at their current clubs.

This is the sort of thing we take the pee out of Ipswich fans for when they claim to be one of the biggest clubs in England or something.

Has nothing to do with money...

[norfolkngood 1,174]

People talk about stability but our DOF Webber tells us at every chance he will be leaving 

say the next DOF if there is one has totally different ideas that is not stability

Nothing to do with money? Has nobody looked at Bournmouths transfers the last few seasons?

 

Surprised Eddie kept his job for so long given his record of money spending
