Mercer, as I outlined early today my reasons why I would want the next head coach appointment if JDT was to leave to be a head coach, I would want someone who would play a similar style and formations which I think suits this squad and with the right signings should be top 6 next season. Why ripped us that good work by appointing a head coach who doesn't suit that style seems strange and illogical to me. Plus you done your scouting and research into players that fit into the style of play that you want sign for it to be rip us all again and start again. On JDT, I think he had a good 1st season and I hope he is still here comes 1st game of he season cos I have faith and belief in him delivering the promotion that we all want. I don't know how much of Rovers you watch but we played some good football at times and we were improve game by game but lacked that quality striker. I expected a main number 9 striker will be our 1st signing. I don't believe Jones would fit our football model or structure and playing style.

I don't agree at all. I think it would be truly awful appointment

How is petty that I want Rovers to continue to play a similar style and not have another restart under a different head coach who wants to play a different style. as Ben post below suggested it about continue to play the same style of play whether its JDT or another head coach. Is that so hard to understand I agree with this post 1000%

don't like him personally, his antics on the touchline and not his style of play.

interesting that

All 3 deffo deserve to go down. Everton look awful yesterday at Wolves and Dyche moved to back 3 and brought on Gray on Calvert-Lewis instead of Simms or Maupay. weird that for me Leeds can't defend Leicester look like a team that never recovered from Kasper Schmeichel leaving for Nice

I have explained what my thinking would be if we need to replace JDT and what I would want the new head coach to do which is carry on the playing style and formation that JDT has played and developed this season. Yes we are long away from that at the minute cos we have numourous managers/head coaches being linked with Spurs like Rodgers, Glasner, Slot and Nagelsmann. Plus they have been turned down by Feyenoord Sporting Director for the Spurs Sporting Director. Not someone I would appoint ever here

ok I wouldn't want Jones anywhere near Rovers head job. simple as fully understand how Football works Mercer but I like my teams to play possession based football and high press if you have the players to do this. I think we do, now we need to sign a quality striker and couple of wide players this season plus keep JDT and I think we will have a good season this coming season I wouldn't say either Sunderland or Boro got blown away. Sunderland bossed the first leg but second leg couldn't match Luton at all. Guess the lack of defenders was a problem also. I thought Boro and Coventry games were boring and nothing in it. Mercer, we all have different thoughts on Football and we are going in right direction under JDT and if we had sign Undav we would have made top 6 for sure and that's my opinion

Like I said once to you already that's might your method/way but my thinking is you appoint the head coach who suit your players and your style of play. In his interview last week he says he has learned and willing to adapt to different circumstances

Leeds started well and got the first goal but as soon as Bamford got injured and they conceded, they just couldn't matched West Ham. So poor at the back. So its goes the last day. Everton vs Bournemouth Leeds vs Spurs Leicester vs West Ham. I still hope Everton go down myself

The article is on BRFCS front page Well that's might your way of thinking but we have style of passing that's suits the players and I would bring in a head coach that would continue that way of playing. Was that them trying to find out more on JDT and his success at Malmo. JDT was GB first choice and very quickly appointed within a week of his own appointment.

why you not a fan? GB seems to have shortlist for key footballing position and that the sort of planning we haven't had in the past here They didn't go out in Manchester for a meal or drinks but he was there for a medical and GB make sure he got some food probably from canteen at Man City training ground

We aren't skint tho as we get compensation for JDT going to another club to appoint a new manager. Yes he has agreed to move to Southampton. The biggest question can Wilcox and Ankersen bring in the players he needs for the style of play he wants to play. Jones was the wrong appointment at the wrong time agreed I wouldn't want Jones as Rovers head coach at all thanks. No suited to our playing squad or youth development. JDT is still here and I confidence he will get us to PL and we will make some good signings this summer.

I don't want to lose JDT at all. I think he done a good job and I think he is the man who will take us to the PL and keep us there plus improve the club. I think having GB in the Director of football is has shortlist for people who might leave whether its the head coach or head of medical/sport science department. 12 months ago we didn't this type of thinking. We spent weeks looking for a head coach then GB came in as Director of Football and appointed JDT within a week of his appointment if my memory is correct. I have seen Spurs linked with Nagelsmann and Rodgers in the last of couple of hours plus Feyenoord trying to agree a new contract with Slot. Tottenham 'reopen talks with Nagelsmann for manager's job but German coach demands assurance over key appointment' | The Sun Tottenham: Spurs Eye "Absolutely Phenomenal" Manager Move (msn.com) Tottenham manager news: Spurs double down on Julian Nagelsmann stance as club step up hunt | Evening Standard Says in this article that Feyenoord are trying to agree a new contract with Slot

All depends how quickly Feyenoord move for JDT if Slot does take the Spurs job

Does he play the way JDT does? No thanks. We need a replacement if he goes that plays similar cos that our footballing style and structure within the club. I would probably be looking overseas for his replacement

If Russell Martin is GB first target then go and approach Swansea for him. Don't give up just before he gone to Southampton

Whoever we do get to replace JDT needs to carry on the same style of play, tactics and the good work he has done. Who that is I don't know yet.

It's vital we replaced quickly if he does go. I wouldn't want to lose JDT at all but he won't turn them down if we get approach for him. Who this ideal replacement going elsewhere?

With Spurs being linked with Feyenoord Manager now and even having talks with them

Very bad news there

would Brentford manager Thomas Frank not be possible option for the Spurs job?

thanks for the stats. I like stats but also like using my eyes. We aren't going to agree on Pears vs Kaminski debate so lets just agree tom disagree on it and leave it there

I can understand what you are saying but I think Southampton wants to adapt this style throughout their teams from first team to under 16's level and its a long term approach I like how he wants to play but I think his attitude stinks when teams play different against his teams or things go against his teams he throws his toys out of his pram.

Leeds need to win tomorrow against West Ham. I hope they do it tbh
