Be careful what you wish for. Just heard  Nuno is leaving Wolves.

He’s seen the light

[liverbaggie]

Bielsa?

Knowing us we'll probably appoint Wagner from X-Factor instead

Don't!!     Easy mistake for the top blokes in charge to make.

Shouldn't be surprised by anything that's posted on here, but every now and again... BAM.

Wishful thinking indeed. He's too good for Lai and co.

[alex1]

I don't see it happening in a million years as he's at a much higher level than we are, but I would love to see someone like Peter Bosz at the club. I know its not realistic, it's more of a dream appointment for me. A strong attacking/possession/pressing style and a good eye for talent. That's the sort of football and coach I wish we could appoint.

Blimey, someone on my wavelength. Peter Bosz is streets ahead of anyone mentioned on here. A succesful period at Ajax and then sacked at Bayer Leverkusen just because they dropped out of the Champions League spots. He plays attacking football through the midfield and his teams are high scoring. Mind, he would have a job getting our current squad to perform in that manner, but no doubt he would bring in couple of players who could make a big difference.

The issue isn't wavelength, it's just a totally unrealistic prospect/suggestion.

Highly unlikely, but then journalists and posters alike are talking about Frank Lampard, who has just left Chelsea and who has by all accounts turned down a mid table premier league club.

In that sense, talking about a bloke who has probably been asked to go due to a poor season at the Wolves isn't completely far fetched.

I personally think he will end up going abroad or to a mid table prem side.

I can't see Lampard coming here either mate. Nuno will be snapped up before a ball is kicked I'd imagine. We only get Lampard if no one else wants him.

If Lampards turned down Palace why would he come to us? I can't get my head round it

It is all purely speculative- we already know Wilder looks nailed on

[NJS]

There's no need to rush is there?

At the end of the season a lot of managers will be coming free.  If we hang on we might get Steve Bruce!
Oh get a move on and appoint Wilder quickly.

[gazberg]

I hope not. I hope we are considering all our options instead of bull rushing into Wilder.

[lewisant]

Nuno is off to bigger things I imagine.

[hardtobeat]

Remember Nuno  saying how hard he’d found lockdown ,hadn’t seen wife and kids for a long time , they were in Portugal I believe so it could be he’s going to just take some time out

[gazberg]

He's not leaving Wolves to step down to the EFL I'm sure of it.

[WorcsWBA]

It depends whether or not you want Dowling unilaterally making the decisons about which players to retain?

[SirTonyM]

I think in part it's a style of football thing, which is fair enough.

Also - and perhaps I'm just speaking for myself as I know many will have done due diligence on those lower league managers - but with Wilder generally we've had a lot more exposure to him as a Prem manager and one we ourselves have competed against often over the past few years. So it's easier to criticise him given we have a lot more knowledge of how he operates. I'm not championing Appleton/Robins etc but also not criticising them as I haven't done my homework yet.

This is a fair point. I think sometimes narratives start to snowball and you just need to pull them apart. People said Wilders a dinosaur and his footballs terrible just doesn’t seem to be true for his whole career. Just like I don’t think Allardyce is the same as Pulis. Wilder made players better Stevens, O’Connell, Fleck, Lundstrum, Basham etc. People saying he got lucky having Dean Henderson, one other way of looking at it is he was able to get him to Sheff Utd in the first place. While we are on the subject of goalkeepers I would say Pulis was lucky he had Foster during his tenure....

That's an interesting choice. Was Wagner the one where Everton fancied him which led to his demise, or am I thinking of someone else?

[smethwickw]

Sheff Utd got 54 points last season. We’ve never got anywhere near that. You can’t put this all down to the keeper either. He was nowhere near the top of the saves table. I’m not that excited by Wilder but his record is very good.

[Dan]

I wouldn't be so sure about this, wasn't his big argument and ultimate downfall with Sheffield United that they wanted to appoint a director of football? Can't see why he would then accept us while we still have one.

Wagner turned us down after Big Dave was sacked. Wasn’t interested in coming to the Albion at all and publicly said so.

It’s a NO from me. Especially when I think about the garbage football the Terriers played under him. That 1-2 loss at he Hawthorn’s during the 17/18 season was the lowest point for me. Huddersfield were **** and we still couldn’t beat them.
