Expressing his desire for the job before being appointed is something I like. Unlike Amorim trying to play poker with Edwards and co.Absolutely every manager even close to being attainable would bring the same risk. There is absolutely no guarantees any manager will work out anywhere.
Edwards is a shrewd operator. Time will tell on this but I actually quite like the profile of guy they’ve gone for on this. I can see why people are skeptical but I also don’t think there’s any perfect fit attainable, especially since Alonso opted to stay put.
