    He's apparently just bought a house in Glasgow. His appointment wouldn't go down well with a lot of Celtic fans though.
    Seems an obvious candidate although it sounds like Moyes is the front runner. Don’t think the fans would be happy with that though.

    In all seriousness, the are in the CL groups so surely could attract a good up and coming manager with euro experience?

    I don’t see why Rogers would go back to them. I think he’s only being mentioned as there’s no obvious other front runners.

    I think they’ll go for someone from left field like they did with Postecoglu.

    FWIW I’m pleased he is leaving them as I really like him, I prefer it when they’ve got someone I can’t stand.

    Knutsen would surely fit the Ange mould.

    Ultimately it comes down to your place in the pecking order. Celtic fans went nuts when Tierney and Rodgers left too, calling them traitors and whatever.

    It's a sad fact that with maybe a handful of exceptions any EPL job is bigger than any job in Scotland now and that's been the case for some time. If Everton, West Ham or Brighton came in for him then Ange would have gone there too. Spurs is a no brainer. Big job but a high ceiling with the money that stadium is generating for them among other things.

    Would Moyes leave West Ham to go to Celtic? That's a step down.

    Might go before he’s sacked early next season. No idea to be honest but don’t think it’s a stretch

    How has his team been doing recently? Was a time he was a being tipped for every job going but not heard him mentioned for a while.

    Top of the league by 8 points after 10 rounds of fixtures. Only dropped 2 points this season.

    One of the bookies also had Steve Clarke as favourite. Don't think the Scottish fans would want to lose him considering the good job he's done though I did read he was a Celtic fan so maybe that's a possibility too?

  12. #1961
    I think Steve Clarke wouldn’t want the drama that went with the Celtic job

    Did he not say once he left killie he wouldn’t miss the bigotry of club football coming against the uglies or words to that effect.

    Wasn’t fussed for him before but would be a massive loss for Scotland now.

    Either way I can’t see it happening

    I find it hard to believe that many Celtic fans would turn their noses up at Rodgers returning. Firstly, they could do with someone who will be as close to a guarantee of success as possible, with Rangers performing so well under Beale - Rodgers would be that.

    Secondly, football fans can have short memories. Look at how Scott Allan left us, and how he was welcomed back a very short time later.

    Rodgers needs to rebuild his reputation again now as well. He does seem an obvious choice, but wouldn’t be surprised if they decided to look further afield.

    I think Rodgers returning to Celtic would be a good move for both parties, but some of the fans wouldn't like it.

    It took time for Allan to win a number of us round when he returned. Rodgers wouldn't be judged on beating Ross County or Hearts, but on European progress and Ugly Sister bigot-fests and the fact that he left Celtc previously will raise the bar for many fans when it comes to judging him.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    I think he's a very good manager and they couldn't get much better tbh though there is a lot that dislike him for the way he left and don't want him back at all . If he came in and does well I'm sure things would be forgotten though the first sign of a blip and It will turn toxic for him I feel .

    I think it will be Rodgers that will get it as it looks like Ange posteglou to spurs is a goer . Even though spurs are a massive club and with all the money that's done in England I do wonder if he's taking over spurs at a very bad time and might come to regret going down there !

    Have to agree, spurs look a shambles. Add to that there is a good chance Harry Kane will leave this year it will be quite a rebuild. I think Ange probably will make a positive difference down there but will it be quick enough for spurs board and fans? Who knows.

    Ange knows how to identify players so that must be a plus for spurs as they need an overhaul.

    If Ange takes the Spurs job he'll need to get up to speed quickly. Took him a few months to get going at Celtic, will he be afforded the same time down south if he has a similar start? He was also helped by Gerrard jumping ship mid-season to wrestle the initiative from Rangers. Down south he'll have far more rivals competing towards the up end of the table. Could easily be a half-season & out the door job as seems to be the norm at Spurs these days.

    As it stands spurs are probably behind both Manchester clubs, Liverpool, arsenal, Newcastle, Chelsea (money wise) so they aren’t even in top 6 clubs. Certainly not expected to get champions league now so there needs to be a revaluation of expectations at that club.

    A house that'll he'll have bought outright and will earn 5 x more in London, which will come with a free house I'm sure.

    What a position to be in, I'm actually looking forward to seeing how he does and more than happy for Scotland to be seen as a management route to the riches of England.

    I wonder what the spurs board and fans expectations are too , championships league ? A cup ? . Your right that spurs look a shambles and if kane leaves that will seriously weaken them further . Competition for the top four has never been as fierce ! Man city and Arsenal are guaranteed top two places again imo and Man U , Liverpool and Newcastle and Chelsea will be fighting it out for the last two spots. Ange will need time to build a team to challenge the rest and I'm not sure Daniel levy will give him time if they find themselves in 7th , 8th position this season . It's a big gamble going to spurs imo .

    I could manage Celtic and be in with a very realistic chance of winning trophies. I'm yet to be convinced about how good Ange is.

    His signings have been excellent and don’t think that can be argued.

    No European games will probably benefit him to implement his style of play a lot quicker in training.

    They have been, they've looked good against teams that could only dream of affording them. I know the transfer fees weren't huge for some of them but the wages will be big. They've been dismal in Europe under Ange when the quality of opposition has been better. I just don't think winning trophies at Celtic is any big achievement.

    He's still spent close to £50 million.

    Are all their Japanese players on long contracts? I can see them getting a bit frustrated if AP jumps ship. I can certainly see Kyogo heading south but I don’t know about the others.

    I agree as you only really have to beat Rangers and you are certs to win a trophy or two.

    Rodgers was a better manager for Celtic yet they won't accept that for the way he left them.
