He is on around 2.5 million a year at Celtic, I doubt the FAI would fancy that. Things could be different when the time comes of course but I am not sure he would fancy international football yet.

Rodgers I think has said he'd be interested, but not till he's had a career in club football.

I'm going through a few McLaren Irish accents as we speak but all I keep getting is his Dutch one

Rodgers would be a great candidate, but EPL would be top of his agenda when he departs Celtic. At least we would play good football under him. As for Steve McClaren, as Dunphy would say "a spoofer"

What was Trap on? It was circa €2m if I remember correctly but I could be wrong there.

Think the Ireland job is either for somebody on the way up or somebody who is looking to bow out of club management

Rodgers turned down the North if I can remember correctly around the time that Worthington left. Not a chance he will leave club football.
Chris Houghton be mad to leave Brighton given the fact many would easily see him moving on to a bigger club year after if he keeps them up should have never have been sacked by Newcastle many owners around would see that. Mick McCarthy would certainly fancy it he wanted it badly after Trap left. Like few others have said we will be in a transitional period and probably will have to accept not qualifying for the next 1 or 2 campaigns Mick would be the man do to this he already done it after Charlton left. Keane would be interested too I'd say and would have learned a lot as a number 2 and would have much respect of the players. As for Kenny as much as I loved watching Dundalk past few years think this be a jump to big could see a similar situation to the Kerr era. All hypothetical really though would MON really be interested in going back into club management it's changed a lot since he was at Villa. He had an awful time at Sunderland think he'd be mad to jump back into the merry go round of Premier league football at his age that's if he'd even get a job at that level again. |

Trap was on about that alright, but times have changed and this would be more as you would have to buy him out and then entice him to leave, the latter being the hardest part as I doubt he has any interest in it.

Hughton would be an ideal manager. He worked his way through the ranks. Was shafted by Newcastle, and has bounced back with Brighton. He'll look for a few years clubs in England before International duties.
Like Rodgers, has pedigree, so wait and see. I can honestly say, one of the nicest guys in football.

Rodgers told the South Wales Evening Post: 'Managing Northern Ireland is something I want to do at some point in my career for sure. 'It's my country. It's where I'm from, it's where I grew up and it's a country that I love. 'But
hopefully that chance will come towards the end of my career, and I
hope that won't be for many years yet. I have got too much energy to be
an international manager at the moment. Right now it's not something for
me.'

Spot on.. he'll manage either North or South internationally. If it's North well and good, South bonus. If we get him for 2020, and Dublin is a venue, c'est la vie. Ballymena GAA man

When Rodgers was the manager of Liverpool one of his catchphrases in every second interview seemed to be "as a British manager." This always surprised me as a guy from not only a catholic background, but a family that was hugely involved in gaelic football.
Not saying he would never manage us, but he's definitely no James McClean.

I have a feeling Rodgers was just being diplomatic with that answer. I would be astounded if he ever took the job. The money for one would be a pittance to him. Same with the Republic. |

In that respect, I'd be pretty confident that his affinity is similar to that of eg Michael O'Neill, Gerry Armstrong, or Jim Magilton etc
And imo there's no sign of (a ) happening (or anything like it) and as regards (b ), seeing as he's still only 44, that is likely 20 years or more away.
I'd like to think that all other things being equal, he might pick us over you. But I can't see it ever coming to a straighforward/equal choice between the two, so that if simply offered the ROI job, and the terms and timing were right, I'm sure he'd consider it. Same with the England job, tbh. Edited by Territorial - 24 Apr 2017 at 7:28pm |
