New Wanderers Head Coach?

[Unlimited]

Don’t want Rudan here

I heard about his alleged stalking and dodgy conduct with a certain much admired female football presenter and not sure if we want that sort of personality at the club

What length contract does Rudan have at WU, would they even let him go anyway?

Contracts are easily broken these days. I am sure Rudan would love to be the man to lead the Wanderers resurgence and coach a team in his home city in front of 15-20k supporters every week. Beats coaching in front of 5k supporters at Geelong or Ballarat playing on AFL grounds.

Do we want a man with an AVO to coach our team and known to bully players? I don't 

[WSWJACK]

Apart from his"dodgy conduct" which i nothing about to be honest, he knows the A league and has done reasonble jobs at Nix and currently at WU, certainly a viable candidate.

Give Ange a piece of paper and tell him to write down any number he wants

We need an Arnie level signing otherwise

I 100% agree, I don’t know if this exists? Maybe the only one  is Ange

It’s this crazy thing where the Australian & Asian A license doesn’t get accreditation in Europe. Whether you have to do some sort of bridging course or just do UEFA A course. I suspect David Zdrillic was doing the exact same thing.

Another name to keep in mind for the future, currently taken an assistant position in the US

[Upthehill]

On Talay and especially Wilkshire, I cant see them turning down a head coaching role because they played at different clubs as players.

These guys are in careers where competition for jobs is fierce. If Wilkshire got an offer to run a squad in a professional setup he’s going to take it unless he has some sort of a pathway mapped out by another club which I very much doubt

Record for Bozza' s suggestion

Decent record especially in the J-league 

Signing Piksi would be incredible. Not sure how realistic it is though. At one point he was touted to take over at the gunners due to success in Japan.

Agree. Ange is probably the only acceptable Aussie coach from the fans. Imagine the meltdown if Arnie signed. lol

Nailed on GF win within 2 years.

[Sithslayer1991]

Just FYI Aloisi should not be mentioned on this forum. I fear saying his name enough times might summon him as our next coach...

[beatsurrender]

defo no to Aloisi. Plus he always comes with his lap-(attack) dog yapping brother. Dumb and Dumber.

Edited January 21, 2020 by beatsurrender

[Prydzopolis]

Hard no on Aloisi, he had a decent go at Heart but was terrible. Had some time out of the game & was terrible at Roar too. I can’t see anything changing for his third possible stint at a coaching gig.

He is like the most hated player on opposition teams. Everyone hates them but when he is yours it’s a different story (see Berisha, Santa, Brosque, Simon etc). I agree with you though, he’ll succeed at any gig he picks up next.

Mark Crittenden

Blacktown City legend, knows how to beat A League clubs.

Yep, I mentioned Critto & Luke Wilshere to a WSW suit on Sunday. They would make a wanderful coaching duo 

I'm trying to get to the bottom of Critto's current licensing status, as rumours suggest that paperwork whatever that means (I probably should just bring him hey) may have prevented him from progressing any further

He’d be a good appointment. Passionate. Understands the league.

Too late, we procrastinated

No to Aloisi, Okon, Kewell and Van Egmond for me.

In all serious Mark Crittenden seems like a decent manager and potentially a realistic pickup.

I agree. No to any of the names on the top line of your post. 

Critto plays Rudan off a break.

Beat him on four separate occasions in one NSW NPL1 season recently.

I like that combo, with a plan for Wilshere to take over in a couple.

I want a coach who knows how they want to play, what they expect of the players and knows how to get it from them. One that doesn't throw the plan out the window at the first sign of trouble.

Can they set a culture, not just a playing style.

Look at W-league team and they seem have a great culture with Heffernan, Cannuli and Beauchamp.

Popovic, Arnold, Postecoglou. 
 

Get someone with a track record of success FFS.

He wouldn’t leave a club so soon, he’s far too honourable for that

Long as that way of playing is achievable with the players he has. Gumby knew how he wanted to play, but a high line with playing out from the back in back 4 featuring Thwaite, corny and Hammil was just bonkers

He’s no different to any other coach. He’ll do whatever is in his best interests at any time. But it’s not the clubs job to make the coach honourable. It’s up to them to get the best out of them while they are there. As we know, things can change pretty quickly. Let’s just hope they pick the right person for the job.

The way Rudan treated the nix was terrible, he can do one

[VedranRozic]

There is only one man for job. Frank Arok. Just turned 88...

BUT can we tempt him back to Australia?!

If Rudan jumps to us for next season he would surely get a bad name as a club hopper. I mean 3 clubs in 3 seasons off his own bat wouldn't look good, and there's always the risk he will leave us after one season and get a gig overseas somewhere.

Is he legally allowed to take up residence in NSW?

Thats the other thing I want to see in the new coach. Experience developing players at a lower level. 

It's all good to send out a bunch of Bundesliga level players to execute a game plan. But can you set a game plan that can be understood and executed by an NPL/A-league level squad. It's a different skill set in my opinion. 

[Keithie]

Rale Rasic , he is 84 now but Famous for saying Marconi Left fullback Keith Gallacher could have been one of the great Australian Soccer players and better that his Scottish international father if he trained harder. and he coached Australia  

Then there is Raul Blanco , what a character 78 year old now.

Sit down with these 2 and Manfred Schaefer and learn the history of Australian soccer and great coaches and players of their time.

From the vibe I'm getting, Arnie appears top of the clubs local candidate wish list.

Given the barriers that were placed in the clubs path, when they attempted to get Millicic released from his NT contract with FFA prior to Gumby's appointment, it's unlikely it would be possible even if he were keen, given his dual NT coaching roles there atm.
