Big-name managers I am fine with - but I don't see anyone from the 'elite' group, if you include Ancelotti amongst them, taking us on. Nor would I see Tuchel being tempted. It would be a significant risk taking our job if his ultimate aim was Bayern Munich.
Koeman is a big-name player morphed into a run-of-the-mill manager, and that's the mistake the board made, but easy to say with hindsight, granted.
That leaves us with a) internal appointment - Unsworth, b) Known-quantity domestic appointment - Allardyce, Hughes and the like (just speculating, not endorsing here) or c) Progessive, somewhat less known foreigner - of the likes of Fonseca, Carrera.
My worry is we get someone in the latter category who comes in and bombs - that isn't based on anything logical just a mixture of gut feeling and nervousness at our situation currently.
For those reasons, I still think giving it to Unsworth on a temporary basis is the best solution - if he does well he can extend to the rest of the season and beyond, and if not, he can be replaced within a couple of months with no embarrassment.
I would prefer British to stabilise us again and raise morale, and someone who could communicate effectively with fans.

No, but you said Koeman and Pochetino were on a simlar level. That's proof that you chat wham.
That's why a temporary partnership of Unsy,Joe and big Dunc would be a great stopgap!
@catcherintherye reckons we already have a Manager on a similar level to Emery and Pochettini, why would we want to get rid of someone of that ilk?
Big dunc has been assistant to martinez and Koeman. So why should be kept on

Just a guess here Joey, but willing to bet you are a big fan of the BBC sitcom "Dads Army?"

To be honest all of us are guessing*
*presuming none of us have been coached by the blue individuals or work at FF to hear/see first hand evidence
It may not be sentiment if we crash in the next 3 games we will be in dire trouble as caretaker managers what's the risk carrying g on with a manager who cannot select the right team or formation after blowing 200 million plus?

We are in too deep a hole to go for a manager who doesn't know the PL, our players or would waste time trying to get "impossible" players in January.
Therefore I agree 100% with your post ........ it's BIG SAM time.
(and I actually think we'd thrive under him for a few years)
