The managerial shortlist

[SW4Baggie]

Eustace is a good fit: strong coach whose teams are well organised and achieve more than the sum of their parts. However, his teams are very pragmatic and the Blackburn fan I work with is not a fan at all. Doesn’t bother me but those who thought Carlos’ team was too negative won’t be keen.

Schumacher: inherited Lowe’s team at Plymouth and kept the momentum going. Flopped at Stoke where he didn’t inherit a team. Big no from me.

My thoughts on Schumacher too, really hope we don’t go there .

Unfair on Schumacher, he rebuilt the Plymouth side and made then a much stronger side than Lowe’s side. They went backwards when Lowe went but Schumacher rebuilt and made then a much better side
