Succession Planning - Managerial Wishlist

Context is important I think regarding Carsley. No one else in Europe has won back to back U21 European championships in its current format. No English manager since Dave Sexton has won any European championships.
Yes it is and if you look at the players who won and their current level . This will give an alternative context .

Its like multiple premier league winning manager David unsworth
 
Ipswich basically bought all the best performing championship players last season, so they could come straight back up (if they went down which they did, some of them looked hideously out of their depth in the Premier league). After a poor start to this season they are now on course for promotion. He’s a very good and innovative coach is McKenna, he would certainly bring a very different approach to what our recent managers have.
I’m not advocating for Moyes to go but in thinking longer term, this is a good shout. I’m from Ipswich so know a bit about him. A local press officer told me that he had been briefed that he was going to Brighton, then the next day they appointed Hurzeler. Allegedly he blew it by asking for 24 more hours so he could talk to Chelsea and Man Utd first about their vacancies at the time. His stock then dropped after relegation, but he has turned around a really poor start (understandable considering the momentum of so many losses) and the Tractor Boys are playing really good football. He’s got something about him when he speaks - a quiet but steely determination and belief in what he does. I guess you would say he is a risk, as still unproven at Prem level and little experience of working with more established players.

If Howe hasn’t become too bored at the Barcodes to consider his boyhood team, McKenna would be ok.
 
I would like Glasner, but I think he is going to get a Champions League club after palace.

I think the key thing will be getting a manager that fits with the overall methodology that Kinnear is trying to work to. The interview he did where he said that Moyes only agrees to 10% of the players the recruitment team suggest, Says to me they are not in the same page and we have seen a few of the summer signings not getting played, until the manager really doesn’t have any choice.
 
Yes without a doubt no other coach in Europe has won two back to back European U21 championships in this current format. The only other one is Dave Sexton and it was a home and away two legged affair.
Nice achievement don't get me wrong but I wouldn't describe it as an over achievement with the players he has at his disposal. I've said before that Carsley is a great coach of youth teams but I don't think he would want the pressure and media scrutiny of a Premier League job because of his personality and family situation. Its telling that at the age of 51 he's not had any club job and his only job with any pressure was his interim spell at England where he never gave me the feeling he was chasing the job. Leave him where he's happiest coaching younger players without scrutiny

Don't see the love in for Howe personally, he's done alright at Newcastle but then he has the players to do so but his sides tend to be very streaky to say the least and he's not doing great this season either
 
Listening to DMs media spots you would get the impression that he had nothing to do with the signings, that he never saw the videos or read the reports or did his own research. Or that the team never practiced penalties or defended corners.
