De Zerbi.... 15:54 - May 18 with 4035 viewsloftus77

Yes, I know....apologies..this might be getting tiresome already.

But, by god, if I was on the Brighton board I know who I'd be thinking about. And I don't think Our Man could/would say No...

If I was an Ipswich fan I'd be more than a little nervous now. If its not McKenna, and it probably should be, it'll be someone from abroad.

It won't be MC, not done nearly enough yet for a club with Brighton's ambitions I don't think.

Poll: Moses Odubajo - Stick or Twist?

That's my hope on reflection - just a tad too much of a leap this early, hopefully. But I don't think by much.

Bizarely, one of the early names linked is Russell Martin. Goodbye to any plan B for them, I'd certainly die on the hill that MC is a much better manager than him

Wonder where De Zerbi is heading off to ,I suspect the table is already set for him someplace to leave right away .
As for Marti I think our biggest threat will come from a Championship contender ( if not us of course ) because there is no PL team that would take basically an unknown prospect right now IMO.
Of course Sheffield Utd could dump Wilder or he could bail , Kompany is almost certain to jump ship so they have money to burn and that could ruin us .
Best case senario Marti stays this year and gets us into the top 6 or beyond then takes the next step upwards or sticks around to see how far we can go

I could very easily see Marti as BHA manager after the next one...which would at least mean he's had a good couple of years with us.

Poll: Best hug a stranger / fall down five rows / 'limbs' late goals this season

Potter could return. Not a chance in hell it will be Cifuentes.

Wow I forgot about Potter that could be an incredible shout there Ned but would the fans accept him back after his Chelsea fiasco .
Was he in contention for any other PL jobs since he got the boot or just lying low until this season ends .
No chance he would go to Man Utd is there if they drop the ax on Ten Hag

Am I the only person that thinks de Zerbi is over rated?
He inherited a successful system from Brighton/Potter/legacy and hasn't exactly uprooted trees - he also comes across as an ungracious bit of a prick...
Really surprised that he's being linked with all these other 'big' jobs....

They are Aston. They are!

Brighton are the club they most feared would be in for McKenna. My youngest son came out with a very loud oath when ghe read the news. And we were in a restaurant!

I strongly expect De Zerbi to go abroad, maybe Juve.

Listened to the Paul Barber podcast, Brighton are great at succession planning well in advance, I suspect they’ll have identified his replacement before Marti joined us. Does look likely it will be McKenna, given they have gone early on this and not waited to get a fee for DeZerbi

When Marti was linked with Sunderland and Hull I said there is no chance of him going to either but if someone like De Zerbi left I’d be more worried

Brighton under Bloom have lots of long lists in every department from the Tea Lady to the strikers and these change regularly

Marti will be on their long list I’m sure. Has managed within Europe has managed in European competitions has experience of English football has left every club he has been at in a better state.

That was basically Potters CV before he got the job

He might not be number 1 but he will have been discussed

He'll go to Bayern, surely?

Bare bones.

I thought the same until I saw Allegri go, but you’re probably right.

That's what the smart money seems to be saying, given they generally open their wallets sufficeiently widely to bring in the top talent.

There is a school of thought that he might go to AC Milan. but they work more closely to Brighton's model, and do put more emphasis on bringing youth through the system into the first team, which it seems is where de Zerbi has got frustrated with how this season has gone.

I feel a bit for them but having said that they've had McKenna for three years and got two promotions in that time. We'd bite their hands off for one promotion and Marti to stay with us for three years.

I'll be happy for him staying with us for the whole of next season and it would be amazing if he stayed until the end of his contract. I really think he's that talented.

I agree though Chels are a poisoned challice. I hope they continue to largely cycle through the same old names (Potter being an exception that didn't come off either).

Why on earth would the scum be interested in him: totally the wrong fit I’d think.

Would think the natural step for him would be to Brighton: as Kompany has shown a season getting battered in the Premier League doesn’t help your reputation so he may want to avoid that at Ipswich.

Potter to get a 3 year Chelsea pay off, a years holiday and then his job back at Brighton.

Marvellous work.

And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles Brian Moore

Everton have won more games than Brighton this season.
