I’ve got a mate who is a Stoke fan. The guy is nuts. Gave him millions as well to bring in his own players then complained that they couldn’t do what he wanted. Avoid at all costs

The last manager who achieved something at this level with Stoke was Tony Pulis. I think something is fundamentally broken at that club, there's no way all of the managers who've been there can fail, go straight back to another job and do well again without there being a problem somewhere.

I agree with you definitely with all that.
Mad Nate was the worst of the lot though

Please don't make the mistake of giving him a bumper deal like we did with Alex Neil.

We were paying three managers at one point, obviously impacted what transfer business we could do.

It's probably what the aim is right?

Media talk and then big deal put in front of him and he won't refuse a pay rise (not many people would!)

Think he's on a 12 month rolling deal currently too.

I'll add, I would be absolutely flabbergasted if he went there.

Having his name linked to these jobs also makes him look available should a side like Southampton or Boro need a manager this season. Especially if it leads to a contract dispute.

He'll have a good agent, he's practically his own agent.

He was probably comparable to Westley for them - publicly questioning his players' effort, dropping Butland and their other established players, he clearly lost the plot.

I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up going for a young manager already in employment similar to how we did with Lowe - like Mousinho?

Is the answer staring us in the face - could it be a straight swap with Beale?
 
Beale did manage to get QPR high up the table but could the players we have adjust to the style of football? Seems we are set-up largely as a side who are defence first and rely on being very clinical with the few chances we do create. Would this work with Beale?

Very doubtful, this squad needs someone who wants his team to press and play with lots of width.
