If there’s a top quality, genuinely long term and calibre guy available and can come in then perhaps cool minds must rule and Duncan should return to the staff.

however if we are scratching around not sure of who to get in, then rather than get another risky bet whom we’ll just be paying off again in 18 months I think we could do a lot worse than to stick with Duncan for the interim and see what the situation is in the summer. Let him have it game by game for the festive period and if he does ok and build upon today confirm him until end of the season early in the new year.
 

If he puts out a team each week that counters what the opposition tries to do and plays with intensity then why not? Sitting off the top teams and hitting them where that are weak is good but if he doesn't go at the weaker teams then he's as flawed as every manager we've had and should be moved on asap.
 
my 2 cents... depends upon who the board is targeting and if we can get them. If Poch wants the job, I'd have him. If we're staring down the barrel of Fat Sam or Moyes with no other interested suitors, and Big Dunc has us climb to a respectable position, keep the man.

I agree, motivating the players seems to be more important than having some fancy footballing philosophy.

You think these players can focus and put that level of intensity in week after week?

Not a chance. We have to have a manager who can coach a brand of football that outplays teams not one that overwhelms teams when there's a big atmosphere generated.

I'm sure the board realise that, especially Brands.

I see your point but it does make me wonder how Klopp is currently doing just that with the RS, getting them to overwhelm every team they play I mean.
 
I think it depends on what the other options are now.

Knocking back a Kovac etc to keep Ferguson would be insane.

I would have him above Moyes or an Allardyce type fire fighter.

We cant get too carried away though, he is basically saying that himself.

I'm surprised how comfortable he seems in the role though. He actually looks the part.
 
I'd 100% have him for United and Leicester in the Cup.

He'd have the players confident with their tails up going to Old Trafford, we'd stand a chance. Leicester, Quarter Final, Goodison under the lights? He'd have the place rocking.
 
Hes done well against a quality side in chelsea who have put putting teams to the sword especially away. Thats the ebst 90 minutes weve played in years imo, everything was there fight, work, challenging for every ball and quality going forward. He deserves another game but even the man himself said hes not ready yet so lets not piss on his chips quite yet.
