LeftBack Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I've said it before. Friends with the big man and he was approached before Stendel but wanted to stay with Ancelloti.

The_razors_edge Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Just now, LeftBack said: Desperate for a manager job. Has family up here. I suppose you just never know if he’s happy to be an assistant forever (and let’s be honest, being Ancelloti’s assistant isn’t a bad gig) or he has desires to be the main man at another club. If he genuinely wants to be a head coach/manager and the hearts job is of interest to him then I’d be getting on the blower pronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ToqueJambo Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Would be tremendous (until he turns out to be shite, unless he's good - no-one knows apart from the geniuses on here who can predict everything). One of Scottish football's most interesting personalities. He absolutely hates the SFA so that could be an issue, but is also another plus in his favour. Surely he'll head to D Utd if anywhere though? Hope he brings his golf clubs. He'll need them for when the first phoodle poster goes up after he loses one game against Hibs.

Howdy Doody Jambo Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) Would love the big man to lead us But I don't think he would come back to Scottish football However with Gerrard and maybe Howe on his way it could give Dunc the added push to make the step into management He would command respect, motivate and demand high standards, get 100% out of player's and kick ass Edited April 2, 2021 by The Maroon Pound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't ask for autographs from players or many football legends but I would want his autograph before he's torn into the current squad. Brilliant character.

I like the way he conducts himself to the camera and has lasted in a job for Everton for a long and respectable period. 16 minutes ago, StevenNaismith said: Wouldn’t last two mins with AB.

SectionDJambo Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 A fighter who could change the malais of acceptance of failure that has crept unabated into our club. But he doesn’t fit our modern profile of a manager, with skills of saying all the right things and not upsetting players, so little chance of him being offered the job of stopping us being so soft on the field of play.

Paolo Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Interesting suggestion. Not one of the usual suspects, and been away from Scotland long enough, he might not have the ‘know your place’ mentality. I also wouldn’t take the piss under him.

gregzy2k7 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 This type of appointment is a risk however he might actually do alright, he certainly would command respect from all of our players, what a player to look up to and learn from, Maybe would have Naismith as his coach/right hand man? I suppose it depends what kind of style/approach he has and if he would set us up in an attacking manner and look to win matches 90% of the time, My only issue is experience, are we in a position to give essentially a novice the hearts job, i think it might be too much of a risk for me, tbf though its the sort of thing i could get behind as long as i felt he was improving us every season.
