Don't think he'd take it. He's too good for that level.

I think he would jump at the chance to get back with the club.

Maureen in a week or so, a decade of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy and a huge slice of humble pie, he might be ready for the assistant managers role.
I'd pay him 20 Camel lights and a box of matches.

There's clearly only one suitable candidate for this role

It's the opportunity that the job would present rather than the level which may appeal to him.
We've shown with Vieria that you prove yourself here and jobs all over the CFA may come up. In addition, sooner rather than later we are going to start seeing players come up through the youth team. The wheels are already in motion and being our EDS boss would give him a major part of that limelight.
Put it this way, he would get more money, more time, better opportunities and less scrutiny taking our EDS job than going to another football league side. After his spells at Wigan and Leeds (albeit wrong chairmen) I cannot see any Championship side taking a punt on him. Which means a return to League One or abroad.

I wondered if Wilcox would move up.

if not Wilcox I can't see Uwe coming into that development role.
More possibly someone who has experience of developing talent at Academies.
Who was the guy at Southampton who developed all them lot?

It has to be Wilcox on merit, maybe Borrell to take over the u18s.

It would be just reward for some fine work with the U18's if Jason Wilcox was given the job, it'll most likely be an internal appointment you'd suspect as you're then getting someone who is aware of what we're trying to do, has a rapport with the players and can continue the tactical side of things without breaking stride. We'll have planned this meticulously so will no doubt have someone lined up already.

Rodolfo Borrell would make perfect sense. Been at the club for over 12 months, worked at Barcelona, Liverpool academies, respected by Pep.

i think the general consensus is that wilcox is doing a great job where he is, so why distupt that? it needs someone with experience to bring a 19/20/21 year old into the first team - maybe that's what we lacked with Vieira?
Uwe would be a backwards 'jobs for the boys' type appointment. I don't think we should hire based on sentimental leanings. If he went for it, interviewed exceptionally then fair enough, but as it is he seemingly has no clear experience working with youth teams.
I don't think it'll be him anyway. It'll be a specialist appointment.

Do you reckon it's likely Wilcox will be promoted and we'll look for a new U18 manager, or will they keep him where he is and look to replace Vieira directly?
