Ken Hairy 4,272 Posted August 14, 2022 Robins, Warne or some foreign gem ala Farke. Not sure why we have to keep repeating this 😉 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Christoph Stiepermann 1,251 Posted August 14, 2022 Don't think Smith is anywhere near as close to the sack as people think. But there is a manager out there with Championship promotion experience and experience of keeping a smaller club in the PL for consecutive seasons on a small budget in Dyche, I would have him here but 90% of our fans would hate his style of play so we'd never appoint him. I see him as the only viable candidate out there of all the obvious names. All the other good managers out of work seems like they'd be out of our reach, there's no way in hell a Bielsa or Puel is coming here for example. On the often mentioned names Warne and Robins are perfect fits for the clubs they're at right now, they've been there a long time to build those clubs up to what they are now, they are not impact managers who could come in and suddenly make us brilliant, sometimes a manager and club just fits and that's the case for those two, I wouldn't want either here. No to Martin as well, no point on going for like Farke but worse, watching that snails pace build up play would drive me round the bend, I'd happily take Dyche's football over watching our cb's on the ball playing it sideways to each other all match. I'm not saying I'd want Dyche, I'm still hoping it works out for Smith, but if Webber doesn't have a left field appointment lined up out of all the obvious and attainable candidates he'd be my pick.

OnDaBall 141 Posted August 14, 2022 Unless we have a start to the season similar to last season after 10 or so games, then I doubt the board/Webber will even consider changing. But obviously if we get 10 games in and we still haven't won a game, then things will have to change. It's all ifs and buts, and I'm sure the results will come soon and we'll be pushing for promotion. If it does go bad and Smith goes then I'd rather we went for Knutsen, unless Webber has another Farke type appointment up his sleeve, though I doubt that, since he clearly didn't have anyone in mind when he sacked him. Smith may or may not be a good fit for us, but the squad probably needs a good shake up after two failed attempts to stay up, especially last season. The shake up might be achieved by changing the manager who oversaw much of last season's disappointment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dyche is very good at that lower league underdog survival game - but we need more refinement this season, and looking to out-skill our opposition where we are the favourite coming in to games. I'd have Dyche over Smith, purely as he has a bit of character about him. At this point i'm not too concerned so much with how we play, but much more concerned about us having some kind of identity. We're broken mentally, never seen these players so frustrated. I can never remember a time where Pukki has looked so frustrated, getting into arguments and falling on the floor in desperation - the body language coming off those players is awful. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We could really do with an influx of new, hungry, happy players just to change the mood. It's why I enjoyed Núñez's panenka (and his free-kick on Saturday) so much. It's ages since I've smiled during a Norwich game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly out of keeping with what we've been trying to do for the last five years. I know lots of people think Smith is a hoofball merchant but that's much more to do with his touchline-sartorial choices than with the actual football...

For me it's not just the links (and passion that would bring) it's the fact that he does well on a shoe string, yes it's a step up yo-yoing from L1 to champs to champs to PL but in principle it's the same, he has experience in getting a team over relegations etc. Also People need to be given a chance to step up eventually, if not we'd have never gotten farke or Lambert.

Sure but if people are complaining about long ball football under Smith they aren't going to enjoy Warne. I agree with those who said we'd not look at him if he didn't have a Norwich connection. Would never happen but I'd actually consider McKenna at Ipswich. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty football is all well and good when it works and of course is great to see but Personally I don't care if we play pretty or ugly as long as we show fight passion and drive and can dig out results, we're in the championship, not the champions league, get results, not oohs and ahhs at pretty passing.

I wanted Paul Warne when Farke was sacked & it has nothing to do with him being a Norwich fan. I’ve always liked his attacking style of football, yes we are a step up from Rotherham, but Smith moved from a premier league team to us & so far it hasn’t worked. I would imagine that Alex Neil was working with a smaller playing budget at Hamilton Academical than what Paul Warne is working with right now at Rotherham & Alex Neil didn’t have any problem motivating our players & getting us promoted.
