John 0 Posted May 20, 2011 It''s against my better judgement that i''m partaking in this, but:1. Martin O''Neil2. Gus Poyet3. Alan Curbishley4. Karl Robinson5. Malky MackayAnd i hate to say it, given our recent history with former players at the helm, but i''ve always reckoned Dion Dublin would make a good manager, ever since his latter spell here. The players were clearly endeared to him, and i suspected he commanded more authority in the dressing room in the way that he was referenced to in the papers by the players on a weakly basis, with nothing but praise.Having served under Sir Alex Ferguson, Graham Taylor, and Ron Atkinson; like Lambert, he seemed a studious player that would have been somewhat cultivated by their methods in his appriach to the game also in my opinion.

Thisisbabyish 0 Posted May 20, 2011 I don''t think it''s a stupid thread at all! Lambert will leave at some point whether people like it or not! No manager stays forever (Fergie excluded)Easy answer is Martin O Neil, No one comes near his pedigree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a human being and an ambassador for football he''s top drawer but whenever I''ve seen him interviewed I''ve been left woefully unimpressed by his football and tactical knowledge. His efforts on Sky and Late Kick Off are limited to cliches and he gives very little insight. Whilst this isn''t neccesarily an overwhelming problem for a manager (PL himself isn''t exactly Mr Saturday Night) a manager needs a certain level of intelligence and eloquence and the players will quickly lose confidence if they know the boss is no more knowledgeable than them. There are also many times where, when asked a question, he veers way off topic, appearing to actually forget what the original question was. I''m more than willing to accept that this is due to nerves and still being a novice in terms of the media. However, he doesn''t seem to be any better when given time to formulate his answers.After we went down he was quoted in one written article as saying that if he were in charge the players he''d look to bring in would be Matthew Gilks, Andy Hughes and Peter Thorne because on the training ground and in the dressing room they were big characters and winners. Knowing how City fans were feeling, what would possess him to suggest that 2 of our least beloved players of the last few years and a player who never even got off the bench for us even when we were at our lowest ebb, would be the answer? If this is the rationale he is working to, could you imagine his attempts to motivate a dressing room?I have all the time in the world for Dion Dublin as a player and a person, but we absolutely can''t let his high-standing in some areas blind us to the fact that he''d be no more capable than Bryan Gunn was, if, god forbid, PL was to move to pastures new.

Rupethebear 0 Posted May 20, 2011 Total and utter pointless thread, you saw the man milking the atmosphere on the last day, he had agreed the budget and he''s achieved so much but know''s there is more to come.........why would he want to drop down a league and work with a board who do their business through the media and even slate their manager and players in the media, this is certainly not Paul Lambert''s style......don''t forget WHU are virtually bust and will be like Pompey and Hull and have to clear out anybody they can to reduce the wage bill.
