It's not a lack of respect but he's not going to be the manager forever and if Hearts start the season like they ended last season he won't last long.

 

You have to try and freshen things up when things go stale, Adkins brand of football appeals to me more than Levein's big lump up front brand of football.

 

If you enjoy sterile football then Levein's your man. He won't change his style.

He can't, it's not in his make-up. If he changed his style it might look like he was wrong in the first place and he wont admit to that.

Myths ?

 

Levein admits himself he is a cautious manager

 

Proof was in the pudding. Didn't score more than 2 goals in a League match since the 3 up at Dundee in October and barely scored 2 in a match.

This is just a tired myth peddled on here by a few and given arms and legs by Michael Stewart.    It's up there with the other popular myth that we won't sell season tickets as long as Levein is here.  Oh wait ?‍♂️

It's not a myth as I have explained by giving an example of a lack of goals

Now he's the type of manager Hearts should be looking at

 

You think that we can attract English Championship managers? Total detachment from reality on here, especially at this time of year.

And what sort of money will he be looking for?  I do wonder at some of out fans grasp on reality. Hull's turnover last year was £52 + million (which probably included some parachute money) so you can bet he was already getting paid way more than we would be willing to pay.

In which case he'll be a very wealthy man who might fancy a new challenge, regardless of the money on offer.

He's an out of work football manager. He might fancy a crack at Scottish Football. Money might not be everything to him

Adkins is funny one.

He had Southampton playing eye-candy football, then sacked for Pochettino.

 

He has done nothing of note since.

Meaning what? Is it really out with the bounds of possibility that Hearts could attract an out of work Championship manager?

He's had that basket case owner at Hull to contend with

 

Levein has done nothing of note throughout his managerial career and plays eye-bleeding football

Adkins would be a fantastic appointment. Brilliant man manager and knows how to play good football, unfortunately was out his depth with Saints in The Premier League, but given the chance up here I think he would do wonders for us.

It's laughable considering how successful he has been as a manager.

 

Can't even finish above Hibs

Disrespectful too, apparently.  Why can't people just let him get on with his job for life, unaccountable to no-one, it would appear. A 3rd successive 6th place finish would really top it all and would deserve to be rewarded with a new contract.

So did Killie and Aberdeen. 

 

Adkins managed to get Southampton from League One to the Premiership so has a slightly higher pedigree than Heckingbottom! Clark had a connection to Kilmarnock and McInnes didn’t succeed in England, Adkins has. We won’t attack a successful English Championship manager, even if we did have vacancy.

Who would you get, they say? A poster suggests a name that is available , with a good track record but apparently it's disrespectful. Perhaps, instead of continually defending Levein with the same tired old reasoning, they could discuss the subject of the thread.

I didn't say if they were successful or not, just that they had managed in the Championship. So did Lee Clark who also managed Killie.
