For me Rosenior ticks all the right boxes. Obviously there are other factors most notably his own ambitions and location (not sure what his family circumstances are) but I would be pretty chuffed if we got him

I understand why people would be nervous about Barry being appointed given his similar path in coaching to Foster.
However, I think a key difference between the two is that Barry played at a much higher level than Foster and you’d imagine that he’d be in a better position to understand and build a decent relationship with the players.
Having said that I’d prefer to see us go for Rosenoir, he ticks all the boxes for me!

Wow! I guess that means it was our "last ditch" defending and goalkeeping prowess that kept us in the division!
Hull's xG stats give them a goal difference of +8.74 - very close to their actual GD of 8.
Ours gives a GD of -20.24 - much worse than our actual of -11 . Imagine where we'd be if we'd scored nine fewer or conceded nice more goals!
Just like last season, Coops has been defying the expected conceded goals stats and keeping out more than what the stats say he should be doing.
If he does go he'll be a huge loss and very difficult to replace. Hazard's stats are definitely not on Coops's level.
Playing at a higher level doesn't always convert to being a good head coach/manager. Rooney, Gerrard, Gary Neville to name just a few.... In fact a lot of the top managers never played at a high level, Mourinho,
Tuchel etc.
Yeah quite.
In addition it shows that we've converted chances given lower xG points, so our finishing has been clinical.
Step forward Morgan, Ryan and Finn.
Also, suggests a low penalty rate (A penalty is given round 0.75 xG I think)
Bad luck, poor reffing or not savvy enough? Possibly all three.

This is nonsense about LR not playing "attacking" football.
Define attacking.
Both Man City and Liverpool play attacking football but the style is different.
City play through the thirds whilst Liverpool play more directly .
Both are , IMO attractive to watch.
If I understand the Hull owners rantings correctly he wanted LR to play more like Liverpool than City.

The likelihood of Argyle getting LR is virtually zero.
Yes, he was sacked from Hull, but its widely regarded in the football world that he did an excellent job.
He'll want a club with minimum aspirations of the play offs... and not just wishful thinking of getting there.
Don't get your hopes up guys as this is not going to happen.

Apologies. You spoke about someone having not coached in England before. I incorrectly assumed you were talking about Barry.
You do realise that ND wasn't responsible at all for the appointment of Lowe and Schumacher? They were here before ND and actually brought HIM to the club
You're probably right. But if he's bruised by his experiences at Derby and Hull and looking for a supportive club that will invest time in him he could do a lot worse than Argyle.
Thanks for pointing that out. In that case there is even less reason for some of the comments aimed at ND for bringing in his 'Scouse mates' Surely he would have had a big say in Schumacher being promoted to first team manager/coach though even if he arrived just after?
