The issue Wolves have is as that they have gone so Portuguese that will define the managers they can go for. I don't think Poch would touch them for that reason.
Rob Edwards rumoured to be in contention to take over at Middlesbrough. Any ideas why as he just got sacked at Watford, although they don't keep their managers for long.
Surely Ronaldo has got to get the Wolves job as player/manager Portuguese ✔️ And he gets out of United and can pick himself every game before the World Cup 😜
Was all a bit tongue in cheek my man As I said stuff of fantasy I did wonder if he might try and end his contract early tho so he could sign on a free for someone for fitness and game time before the World Cup. But more realistically wait till Jan and move then 👍🏻
alderz, Good luck with the bet. I am not doubting Steve Cooper isn't a decent manager but was questioning the media for saying he would be taking over from Hasenhuttl when Forest are bottom of the league. Rodgers must be safe for a few more weeks after Monday Night?
One of my biggest pet hates in football is when a manager has guided a team to promotion, especially when unexpected and they get the sack when they under perform at a higher level. Forest have not been anywhere near the prem for a long time. Now I don’t like how Forest have gone about their business this window, it’s just crazy and doesn’t feel like they have brought much quality but for me I don’t think Cooper is at fault.
However… If they should be bottom after another 7-8 matches what will NF do… I’m certainly not saying they should have got rid, but they might just have left contract extension talks to a later stage 🤔 He could turn out to be the next Neil Warnock, good enough for the EFL but not up to PL standards, time will tell. I’d be more than OK for them to go straight down. Throwing around the kind of dosh they did and the Lingard outcome… No problem for a quick return to championship for me ….

Portuguese ✔️

Would have to agree to mutually terminate his contract so could sign on a free 🤔
Such a waste of a great player at the moment 🐐
I'd love to see it too. Nothing to do with Ronaldo, but I LOVE a player manager!
Somehow I suspect Wolves aren't quite going to match his ambitions
Also does he even have a coaching badge?

IF Forest get rid of Cooper then they want Rafa but so do Leicester who have just won 4-0!
I simply ask the question why to both of the above?
