Restonbabe Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Good luck to the man. Best as an assistant manager. Tactically clueless so will be interesting to see what he could bring to villa if true. I Can only tell you 5 people in Scotland right now who I would take at hearts Michael Beale Callum Davidson Steve Clarke Derek Mcinnes Jim Jefferies SFA believe it or not is world renowned for its coaching classes. Its definitely not the lack of quality talent. Its the mentality of the people influencing the approach to Scottish football. It's quick, fast paced and technical. The fundamental issues with that is not one club focuses on the aspects of technical coaching. Hearts have always relied on being a physical team with a target man and a brute midfield. The last decent midfield we had was when romanov came with luxury players such as Julien brellier, rudi, Paul Hartley. And wingers who could press and break up play.

Yeah , but that could just as easily be a club just saying nothing. Most don’t tell randoms things. (Highlights how bad our leaks were) Tbh if he does get it good luck , if not who cares. Hes not with us and as such I dont wish him any ill will but hes an irrelevance. Cathro if things were better Id take back as a coach. Thats it out the last few years. People talk about Locke , Paolo and JJ no chance Id want them back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its almost like you are at it Okay then put it this way. We went nowhere with Mcphee and we will go nowhere with Neilson. Never gave an opinion on Callum Davidson or Michael Beale I see. Mcinnes has been more successful than the past 3 hearts coaches combined. Ever. Steve Clarke the same. The lack of Scottish candidates for manager or assistant manager coming through the ranks here is shocking imo. The fact Mcphee is even being mooted as a replacement equates to being; Hearts are a shite club without a clue of what talent is at our disposal. Or the chairman has not got a scooby what she is doing. I personally think its the latter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilson is still Hearts manager I wanna tell everyone I dinna want him eh gaj!!” As for Beale and Davidson I didnt give an opinion on them because as Im sure anyone else reading this realised I happen to think they might be worth a shot. MacPhee was fine in certain roles. Just because jkb says he did x or y doesnt mean he did. McInnes , all of you who would take him. Yet after 2games when you are screaming about back to fromt hoofball and no youth , no style , no plan B you’d want him out as Aberdeen fans did for about 6 years. All irrelevant , thread is about MacPhee and if he gets the job he gets it. It doesn’t reflect one bit on anything he did with us or how he was utilised. Thats all in the AB out crews heads. Football just isnt like that , just because JKB says it is doesn’t make it correct Edited July 26, 2021 by sadj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcinnes also managed to finish below clubs like Motherwell and Killie despite having time and the third biggest wage budget. He was going backwards with Aberdeen. Irrelevant anyway, he's not our manager, although you never know, we might find out in the future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Jambo Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Wouldn't really be a surprise as he clearly has a good reputation in the game. Most Hearts fans, including me, will have close to zero insight into what he is actually like as a coach/ assistant manger. Nobody considering him for a coaching job is going to be judging him on 5 league games as interim manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ^^ Plenty of people in the game rate Austin. Maybe he wasn't ready to be Hearts manager, maybe he went for a top job ahead of his time - ambition isn't a bad thing but there is an expectation/mentality in the Scottish game that you need to manage in lower leagues first before managing a top flight team. It didn't work out at Hearts - doesn't mean he's incompetent/terrible at coaching. Same goes for Cathro who's track record outside of Hearts suggests he's very good at a supporting role.

Lone Striker Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Its strange isn't it. Cathro & McPhee with no senior football playing career, being lauded by managers who played at a high level, despite what Boydy thinks. No idea about McPhee, but Cathro has proved his worth in the EPL as an assistant coach. I suppose Jose & Wenger prove that it's possible to reach the top jobs with no or little practical high-level professional football experience.
