Before i begin, just to clarify that Giovanni Trapattoni has not been fired or resigned from his managerial post of our national team (just in case anyones thinking they have missed a major announcement LOL )

 
There has been a lot of talk during Traps reign as Ireland manager, with criticisms coming for a lot of his managerial styles and tactics. Namely that his style is far too conservative for our palyers, and also that his team selections have shown signs of inexperience of what we have at our disposal. This thread really is an extension of another topic currently ongoing (http://www.ybig.ie/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24312&title=giovanni-trapattoni) which is solely regarding Trapattoni and his tenure as manager.
We all have our opinions and criticisms, with some based on what we have seen on the pitch and some based on the results we have been getting and the stats we have accumilated. Quite a few people feel that Trapattonis time has come to an end and that these next 2 weeks should (or will!) determine wether or not the FAI will offer him a new contract for the 2014 World Cup qualifying campaign.
 
Also taking into account the mans age, and health status, i just would like to progress all the criticisms/praise for Trapittoni on here to who you guys feel should be the next Ireland manager (if any) and why??? Smile
 
 
I personally, despite my criticisms i share with some of you of how Trap has ran the tean, feel that we could get no better manager than what we have, taking into account current managers that are out there amd are available. But maybe i dont know as much about managers as you guys, maybe there is someone out there who could, and would, be better for us than Trap.
Tea???? FECK!!!!!

when you actually give this any thought there are very few candidates, realistic candidates available.
 
O Neill - would cost too much
Hughton - hugely overhyped. any fool would have got that newcastle side up. At the moment Pardew is doing better with arguably a weaker team at the same stage last season
Keane - wouldnt want him and he wouldnt take it while delaney is around
Mick - Probably the favourite but why would he leave wolves. he is building a solid team there and I dont think he has got to a stage where he cant take them any further
 
Cant think of too many more off the top of my head. Nigel Adkins is a very good manager but again probably would not leave southampton
 
Maybe alan curbishley but he has been good in the past there is surely a reason he is still out of work
 
Not much to choose from.

Someone correct me if im wrong here, but is it true that from our past 4 managers, Brian Kerr actually had the highest success rate or something? I remember Sky Sports did a show when Trapattoni was appointed and i cous have sworn this was the case (may be wrong though)

Coming out after the slovakia game i really thought traps time was up, but the more ive thought about it i think it would be for the best to extend his contract. bring in a new man, whoever it is, and we probably will try to play more attractive football, but we'll also get hammered now and again, which doesn't happen with trap. This and as people have already said, the managers who would be available and willing to take the job make me think keeping him on for a further two years is for the best

Brian McDermott - met him after an Ireland match this campaign in Paddy Cullens with Pat Dolan (who bought us drinks and was bang on!).  He loves the boys in green and has a decent record at Reading.  Told us Shane Long lived with him when he first moved over and he loves him like a son!

Unless we got to he euros, not matter how valiant a defeat (sotry of our lives) trap has to go, the thoughts of another campaign enduring the same mistakes and turgid football are not worth thinking about. The crowds will continue to dwindle and dwindle. If we were winning keys games the middle of the raod fan might tolerate it, but we are not, we have had 5 shots on goal over the last 3 games, say what you want but that says it all about trapattoni, even against croatia at home in a friendly we wouldnt have a go. I also believe that his system has made huge fall-guys out of whelan and andrews, who seem to be taking the blame for the teams shortcomings by a lot of people on here.

I doubt it maybe confusing ammounts spent in transfer market as oppose to wages
 
He would instill great belief in the players
 
I would love him to take the job

Everytime this comes up someone says Mick is the favourite based on nothing... the lad is and has been for the last year 25/1 in the bookie to get the job, if there was any sort of truth in it the lads in the know would have piled on long ago
