Name the next manager

[mkmel]

I think if he’s going to Europe it will be Diego Martinez.

Just been reading up on Diego Martinez and it seems that he did an excellent job at Granada.

Can't find out why he left them though.

[Lancasterclaret]

It could be any out of work European manager

Hasn't Martinez only managed CF Granada?

[KRBFC]

Rudi Garcia, Lucien Favre or Paulo Fonseca anyone?

[mkmel]

Anyone able to post the latest betting to see whose odds have shortened?

[ClaretMov]

Just to clarify. Your two main points of Dyche having ZERO experience and him not having a cracking end to the season were both wrong. I'll leave it at that, I'm sure you won't.

Clarify what you call end of season because you keep changing it, is it

1 - last 6 or 7 games (what I'd call the last part of the season)
2 - last half of the season
3 - last 3rd of the season
4 - last few month's.....you've said all the above
5 - or a new one to suit your agenda.......

In my opinion but clearly not yours, 1 season under his belt is zero to very little experience, I'll leave it at that, I'm sure you won't

The odds haven't changed at all really, Kompany was 7/2 yesterday he's now 25/1

Stop squabbling and get a room you two

[Penwortham_Claret]

How is a club that was paying their last manager close to £100,000 a week, not an attractive proposition? you're incredibly naive if you don't think money talks.

Of which we will continue to pay a substantial percentage for some time.

Let’s see what we end up with. I’ll wager no premier league experience

He didn't agree with the Corrie plotlines.

[Roosterbooster]

Kjetil Knutsen?

According to an analytics company he adds more to a squad than any other coach

[Down_Rover]

too many at the top of the betting lists are 'nearly done it managers'. That includes Chris Wilder.

Ternent, Cotterill, Coyle, Dyche. all of these turned out to be good managers and moved the club on with varying degrees of success but mainly positive.

i prefer to think we will appoint a manager who has shown early signs of promise, has learned, and is now ready for the next challenge. Kompany may well fit this bill but I am sure there are others, maybe Santo too, but few on the bookmakers lists appeal

[RVclaret]

Diego Martinez an interesting one. Obviously no link just speculation based on Pace heading into Europe. Seems he’s been in England watching a lot of the PL recently and loves the football tradition here. The job he did at Granada seems akin to Dyche here. Available too.

Oh well, you changed you stance from 'zero' to 'zero to little experience' All I said initially was that it wasn't strictly true, so it's good to see you now agree with me. I'll probably leave it at that.

I want Rooney/Kompany/Knutsen/Cooper, non of whom have any PL experience so hopefully you're right!

[ClaretMov]

Pity you can't admit you changed what you said about the end of his season, half, 3rd, last month's

Whats the obsession with Rooney?
Granted he's done an OK job in difficult circumstances. But it's only an OK job. And he has basically been in a win-win situation all along, as nothing was expected.
I genuinely interested in your thoughts

[williamjblazkowicz]

I've looked up Diego Martinez. Quite an interesting career so far. Only 41 and he's not far off having managed 500 games, albeit most at a low level as he was gaining experience. Started coaching at age 20 and his most recent posts were at Osasuna and then Granada. A 47% win rate at the latter.

[Bfc]

Knutsen has a contract until the end of the Norwegian season in December. But it's said, he then has a desire to try something new. There are no reports of interest in him in any of the national papers over there.

[Penwortham_Claret]

My point being that most neutrals would suggest that Rafa is a far higher calibre manager than any of those on your list. I think your list is more realistic and akin with where I think we should be aiming our search on the basis that the more elite managers are out of our reach

I pray we don't get Rafa

[kenyon6923]

IF we get relegated what proof have we that we could pay Wilder more than Middlesbrough ?

I think you're under egging it by saying Rooney has done ok at Derby, incredible job when you look at their squad, they just beat Fulham last night. I like the way Rooney speaks and how he's operated at Derby, very professional when he could've easily publicly lost his rag. I like the way he spoke about Lampard jumping to the Chelsea job far too early and how he wouldn't make the same mistake. He turned down the Everton job for that reason but now Derby are pretty much gone, maybe he'll be ready for the next step in his career. Rooney will bring eyes to Burnley, we'll be the medias favourite club and referred to as ''Wayne Rooney's Burnley'' the same way Derby were under Frank. Then there's the pull and attraction for players to work with Rooney, same with Coutinho and Gerrard. If we're keeping it England based, I'd take Rooney.

''just copied and pasted my previous comment''. I'd also add, he's used largely youth team players at Derby, forced to develop and promote youngsters.

This story is doing the rounds on twitter , Boro fans talking about it.

Chris Wilder was invited and attended a game at Turf Moor by the Burnley directors.

This was while Sean Dyche was still manager, and he was completely unaware of Wilder’s visit.

Rafa wants money, lots and lots and lots of money

Newcastle fans raved about him, but his record was barely better (might not have been better actually) than Bruce, and the football was excruciatingly bad, and his spectacular disaster spell at Everton looked dreadful from the outside

No from me

[ClaretMov]

Diego Martinez would cost us nothing in compensation comes with experience of taking a club from the second tier to the top flight and then into Europe, what's not to like we're Burnley not Barcelona

Can't see how this can be true to be honest. I think he would have been photographed in the crowd if this was the case. He's also a friend of Dyches isn't he?

I agree, he's a bigger name and profile than we are used too but he's overrated imo.

It was the exact same as Bruce record wise If I'm not mistaken

[burnleymik]

Heard a few things about Rafa, mainly that nothing is ever his fault and he has a habit of pointing fingers and blaming others, which can create a toxic atmosphere.

I remember us being referred to as Chris Waddle's Burnley'.

It's a load of rubbish that. He was seen on the day and talked about it on the radio a couple of days later.

Wilder was at a Burnley game a few months ago (can't remember which one) and was shown on camera. But he was in the corporate bit in the lower longside and not the Directors box.

[BabylonClaret]

Nope the opposite. He was the only one reporting it was happening.

His article is basically that Pace is heading to Europe to speak to a manager today. All domestic options appear off the cards. Also says that we want to appoint a permanent manager rather than previously reported interim.

Well that is a twist. Not sure about that - could be a Howe mk2 appointment - ie exciting but with the potential to go tits up I the same way. (I mean all appointments have the potential to go sour but I suspect the element of gamble is different if you went for someone say with experience.

If it were a toss up between Norwegian and Kompany I might tip towards Kompany - he knows the Emglish game and has contacts plus has respect

I’d like someone with plenty of contacts, especially abroad with an emphasis on youth.
