We in the ****,

[Neverbloom]

i know getting a coach is not about personality as such, many would say popa didnt have a great personality but with ange even before he was a coach for the brisbane roar, there was always something i just didnt like about him, cant quite put my finger on it though

[Prydzopolis]

With Ange, one thing you can’t argue is his pedigree. The only way I’d see him coming here is if we lost the qualifiers against Syria.... scratch that, can’t see him coming here even then, has said he has aspirations to coach overseas. If he did, it would be for one season, rather bring in someone for the long term.

[beatsurrender]

Josip in. Bye bye Sotirio and Jumpy

[JayZko]

Rofl i reckon it’s actually for the best not speaking for this season yet but the recruiting Has been piss poor and I bet the assistant coach has been doing it so that’s who should be left to fall on the sword 😁

[lloydy136]

gombau will not work imo. we don't have the players to play tiki-taka and our fanbase doesn't have the capacity to be patient while he implements it (remember adelaide's struggles while they adapted).

our success last season in the second half of the year came when popa adapted to what he had and dropped the defensive line back (which suited corny & aspro) and played more direct (which suited baccus and santa) - to play the way gombau wants you can't do either of these things. its just not going to work.

[JayZko]

Maybe it’s the drugs alcohol or sleeping tablets  

we need somebody this caliber as success is crucial 

 the poor mans been flogging a dead horse with China lol

Yeah lederer is gunna pay lippi rofl 

plus they won't let him smoke his cigars on the sideline here 

[Smoggy]

Who else is outta work these days.....hmmmm Aitor Karanka Boros old gaffer lol If you want someone with zero personality, zero carisma and a legendary stubborness and a inability to accept any responsibility for things going wrong then he is your man.....he will even throw in a training ground bust up with players and not turn up for a match......he is a no brainer, cant think why he hasnt been snapped up already.

 

He is Spanish anyway so thats a positive right?

Des Hasler. I think he speaks another language,  well he did anytime I heard him speak.

[tardotz]

Wait a week or two and Bilic may be available. 

[beatsurrender]

I still think Josip could work. He has more understanding of the game here now and will be more pragmatic. 

Anyone but Crook though. 

[JayZko]

I don’t want to be Adelaide utd

(enough Spanish influence please only one Spanish coach Josip)  That’s it!!!!!!!!!

Crook won't be getting it. Firstly he wouldn't apply for it, Secondly no sane Chairman/CEO would appoint him after he bottled it at SFC.

Decent enough guy but always best working in an assistant type role or making the half time drinks, never head coach material and as you say I doubt he would ever be seriously considered for the top job, even if he did ok in a caretaker type role. 

[Neverbloom]

on Rudan or Gombau personality wise what are they like as a coach? i worry that Gombau will accuse every player who is a father of having a **** goalkeeper son but otherwise i think he is good personality wise, i pretty much know nothing about Rudan and they are the 2 i see most likely

[Neverbloom]

on another note i would mind Miron Bleiberg

I'm not by any means #crookin but he got badly shafted by sydney. Was setting his team up to play a high tempo game, they dump a 40 year old media circus act on him that doesn't want to track back...

I think it will be Rudan, or Josip. I dig the idea of the Blacktown city guy they play sexual football for a NPL team

How about Gombau with Foxe (if he stays) and Papas or Crittenden plus Covic as GK coach.

Sotirio was one of the best players in Josip latest international games.

[WestSyd]

At this stage it would be best if Gombau took over as he is best positioned. He has watched many of our games, knows the Spanish language (obvious advantage), has worked with a few of our younger players already, knows the A-league well and his enthusiasm and passion would be good for the club. Also would be liked amongst the support base. I personally think Rudan would be a mistake, but who knows?

I also think a new manager might actually get a few players who were getting comfortable under Popa to lift their game. Players always have to prove themselves under a new manager, and I just feel like we have some players who should be attempting to raise their level if we are to progress this year. They would probably learn a lot under Gombau as well. The Blacktown City coach as assistant to learn his apprenticeship.

Plus Gombau would help with the academy as he was there too.

It makes sense. But then this is WSW where everything is hush hush.

I don't think so,Gombau or Milicic.

 

[Jukes01]

I still haven't lost hope on keeping Carrasco and slotting him into the top job. We still don't know if all the assistant coaches and backroom staff are going with Popovic. If you were an aspiring coach with a young settled family in Western Sydney would it appeal to you to uproot the family again and move them to Turkey. He might go to Turkey he might not but if the club offers him the role, I reckon he stays. 

[ZachMercer]

I wouldn't rule out a lot of OS coaching interest. There'd be quite a few that would want our club on the resume, but do think it will go to a known.

Looking forward to the coaches interview with Josip. Love him but can't for the life of me understand a thing he says
