Wouldn't be the worst shout.He'd make us harder to beat and lets face it with the type of player at his disposal(obvious ones apart)that wouldn't be a bad thing.

at least he'll bring a decent backroom with him!

Jonathan Owen said on Facebook he's heard the same - not sure how well he's connected though.

Would be happy with Pulis :ayatollah:

I would rather Coleman that Pulis!

We aint got the physical players to play a Pulis style.
He's more Norn Iron than Wales!!!!!

Dare i say it. If Malky gets the bullet here could he be the man for the Wales job?

Wouldnt have to relocate.

If bale decides to play for wales again..

Boring football again though. Football under Coleman isn't bad at times, similar to how we played under Speed but Coleman makes moronic changes like HRK off for Jazz f*cking Richards

I don't want to see f*cking hoofball defensive shit for wales we get enough of that under malky for our club, we need someone who will play attractive football and make chances instead of trying get odd goals from set pieces and hoofballs in the box

Once again opting for managers from Wales, just go for someone foreign a lot of countries are benefiting.

I agree with that, but surely that's the same principle as having an English born captain?

Not at all. Considering there is no one who can lead us forward who is Welsh sadly. Also if it's okay to have an English captain then I see no reason for a foreign manager.. the FAW are just moronic.

Our midfield is our greatest strength with Bale, Ramsey, Collison, Williams etc.

why anyone would want to negate that by opting for a Malky, Pulis style hoofball merchant bypassing our greatest strength is beyond me.

I don't think Malky lives in the area as I remember he was doing a Interview for Talksport last year and he said that he still lived near Watford.

I'd take Pulis, we wouldn't get much better let's be honest

You dont think Bale and Ramsey makes our midfield our greatest strength?? :shock:

Because I know you still believe Coleman is the right manager.

May I say that I really am quite genuinely stunned that people would rather Pulis than Coleman. 'Oh yeah, let's have Tony Pulis be in charge of Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey, Jonathan Williams, Joe Allen etc. He'd definitely employ the right tactics and the players would definitely love his style of play'.

Said no one ever.

I dont believe in "right managers", just ones suitable for the role.

So are you in agreeance it would be ridiculous to bypass our midfield with hoofball, which was my point you seemed to disagree with?

Re: Favourite for the next Managers Job

They have chosen Pulis due to his perceived success of over-achieving with a middling squad.

IMO it doesn't matter who they choose. The players aren't there.

That wouldn't work either. There's nobody to hold it up.

Hence my point.

Coleman is probably the best man for the job right now given our budgets, whos available and what styles are suited.

The thing coleman has over most other run of the mill managers now is continuity. Unless a world class manager comes available then we really dont need more unsettling with a team getting used to new tactics, personnel and a way of playing as thats goodbye to another tournament before it gets going.

Bring in someone class like a Guus Hiddink character or stick with and support what we have - would be my stance on this.

I think he would be better than Coleman, Wales don't have enough quality in defence and need a manager that can organise them and make them difficult to beat, Pulis would be as good as we could get to do this. With Bale and Ramsey, we are always capable of getting goals.

Pullis is a good manager. He works to strengths. Stoke were an average team, but he turned the team and made them hard to beat. We have some quality players, we just need the correct manager.

Colemane was always destined to fail after the aftermath of speed.
