Sorry I'm new otherwise id start a new topic Nah. Won't happen the reason he left Brentford was because they wanted the same structure we have - head coach not manager. Seems he wants full control so if he doesn't have all the say on transfers and is told to play a certain way think he would tell Mel in a more extreme way- thanks but no thanks. Pearson i would take- Not quite sure he would be willing to adhere to a head coach role and to be told to play a certain way either but if he is allowed to manage how he wants I'd have faith he would get us up and keep us up like he did with Leicester.

I have to wonder how many of the people currently hailing him as the second coming were as convinced of his talents 1 year ago. You could flip this. Leicester were in an Aston Villa-proportion slump last season and Pearson turned them around completely despite extreme criticism. For the final portion of the season their form was top 4. Ranieri has been brilliant but he's ridden that wave. If Pearson had stayed they'd be comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pure speculation that Leicester would be comfortable under Pearson. Yes, Pearson turned Leicester around from a slump, a slump he was responsible for. There's an incredible amount of short termism in the modern game. At the end of last season Pearson became a genius after 12 good games and McClaren became a dunce because of around a dozen bad games. It didn't matter that one spent almost the entire season in the relegation zone and the other spent almost the entire season in the promotion places.

Talking of short term-ism, have you checked out Ranieri's record prior to Leicester? Football is so volatile that you can pretty much make the facts fit whatever agenda you choose.

Look at it this way his objective was to get Leicester promoted.. achieved. Then to stay up against the odds. Achieved. Obviously he was sacked outside of footballing reasons but who knows what he could of done. We are in a bit of a mess right now Pearson has experience in over coming that. Who is your suggestion?

TrueLou Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Regards Warburton, it's not the head coach model that puts him off, it's not having a say, which apparently the Derby head coach still has - final veto. Leaving Brentford was also due to the drive towards a mathematical model of assessment and scouting. Warburton doesn't believe in making a half time team talk based on statistical data rather than based on what he's seen with his own eyes, or scouting players purely on a statistical model with no human influence. And I agree with him. And I want him here, he's my choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is your suggestion? I'm trying not to think about who we should appoint because I don't see an obvious candidate and it's a little premature as we all know Wassall is in until, at least, the end of the season.

Van der MoodHoover Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Half or more of our squad thrived under maclarens seemingly more jovial, light touch approach. This year's newbies is anyone's guess. Probably neither Warburton nor Pearson ideal for all our squad but on balance Warburtons approach might better suit the majority of our players.

ColonelBlimp Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Can we not do it like the match ratings? Use survey monkey to pick the formation and players and also have a selection of 'team talk phrases' to vote on. Democratic Football Management.

A non-league club asked for small investors to contribute a nominal sum and the club would be run as a co-operative. It's not the worst idea in the world as this is essentially how fan owned clubs like Exeter and Wimbledon function, but many of the Ebbsfleet investors were daft gits who assumed it would be like a game of Football Manager and they really would be voting on team selections and the like.
