Yes I did on a couple of occasions, now I could pretend to be itk but all I did was think decent manager, managing a pretty crap squad and getting decent results with them. We should be considering him. That’s all the alleged ITK’s do, fugging guess.
If it did happen I shall set up a Twatter account and call myself Baggie Boop
His unfancied Blackburn team are a point behind Albion with a game in hand. Last season his unfancied blues beat us to leapfrog us into 4th place (before he was inexplicably sacked). He certainly deserves a go at a better run club but his much mentioned (by his own fans wherever he goes) unadventurous approach would be a minus with many.
But in his defence, he’s probably having to be unadventurous due to the resources he has available, who is to say that with better players available he would still take the same approach.
Swansea have been keen to appoint him several times due to the reputation he built as a coach and for playing a certain way, and his Kiddy team were ridiculed for their Tika-Taka in non-league.
Eustace seems to be a very well regarded coach with a pragmatic approach, something we probably need.
