The name being floated as the replacement for Carrick is Julian Nagelsmann.
Unsure on that one. Did well early on but then failed at Bayern and Germany.
But who knows.

That's harsh, he didn't fail at Bayern. In fact I think he has one the highest points per game ratios. He just didn't win the number of trophies that they expected at Bayern.
I think if we end up with Nagelsman then that suggests that Vivell is having a greater say on the manager process than Wilcox which would suggest a slight shift in power behind the scenes.

Shappy,
I agree with your post. It is similar to one I made over the past week. Whilst it might not be a popular choice among fans, it might be the best pairing for the club, as Nagelsmann and Vivell have worked together before.
The club might actually pick a manager who would suit the current set up.
Still, it is all ifs and buts. I think the club will turn to Conte. It will be another roller coaster ride.

Nagelsman was my favoured choice apart from the fact he was at the world cup and would have been a delayed start. A unique character (bit marmite) but if Vivell gets to take more control they have shown they can work together.
Will be interesting if and when the board relieve Carrick which direction they go.
