Valery Ismael being linked quite strongly.
Last I saw of him was this time last year when he instigated a brawl at the end of our match at West Brom. As you say his style of play is very direct and physical. It said something that my West Brom supporting mate was glad to see him replaced by Steve Bruce!
Interesting bit on Wikipedia that he was sacked from a Greek side after one game after falling out with the President of the club. Sounds like a marriage made in heaven.
Just been looking at Ismael's record. This is how Wikipedia describes his time at Wolfsburg:
"First-team head coach Dieter Hecking was sacked on 17 October 2016 and was replaced by Ismaël on an interim basis. In his first four games in charge, Wolfsburg managed to win twice. Ismaël was promoted from interim coach to permanent head coach on 7 November 2016. Ismaël was sacked on 26 February 2017."
Sounds awfully familiar...
Still, i'd think he's a better fit than Warnock
As much as I loved Warnock here, I'm not sure this team is right for him. We could bring in a few journeymen of his choice, stay up but then be in the same situation next year with players on our books that just don't fit.
Not my choice but it's my expectation...
Who is the Wrexham Manager???? (a rhetorical question.....)
Steve Bruce down the Vale.
Allegedly
The betting odds have Warnock 1-2 and we know hes not coming. Ismael is now 4-1. The market suggests there are no strong links and we are just seeing flurries of bets following internet rumours and markets reacting.
The likelihood is they havent a clue who to appoint.
If Ismael is out of work he could be a contender.
Not really. I remember when Russell Slade was ‘strongly linked’. I was on holiday in Spain at the time and thought that must have been a piss-take, so I didn’t bother reading any more rumours. Got home a week later and discovered they’d actually given Slade the job. At least that one was kinda funny.
Warnock also took over a good Championship squad that was underperforming, that's not the case with this lot
Morrison, Manga, Peltier, Bennett, Ralls, Gunnarsson and Zohore were already here and would go on to be important players for Warnock. Not forgetting someone like Pilkington who popped up with important goals
At the risk of offending anyone on here, the latest rumour places Bruce taking training today.
Even I dont believe that one. 😜
