The real question is.... do most fans actually know anything about him? I literally have no clue except that he has done well against some big teams.. thats it.. I don't know the style of football he plays (is it like the old swansea way), will he also be able to manage at championship level (pretty sure it will be more difficult than his current league).
if anyone can bring me up to speed on his style of football etc then that will be useful.

Personally I'd go for Brentford manager Dean Smith. In his 40s, an experienced manager getting Brentford to punch above their weight with limited resources who play an attractive passing game. Go get him Huw@

If people are being truthful, then no, most people know nothing about him. Somebody wrote a piece about him in a newspaper and he's become a bit of a cult hero as a result. So now his name gets thrown around in connection with most Championship and lower jobs.

Found this. Clearly not a full picture of the season - hence HIGHLIGHTS - but I don't think they play hoofball whatsoever. Looks like they enjoy punishing teams with hard work, enjoy link up play and utilise wingers.

That’s us f*cked then. We don’t work hard and we have no wingers worth a toss.
That's really promising and links up with my initial thoughts. Is the Championship that big a step up for a manager who has taken underdogs into the Europa League and humiliated the likes of Arsenal?
Sign him up, I like the cut of his gib.

Agreed on the face of it it sounds promising, however I guess we need to look at the positives in the context of a fairly weak league and some of the defending in those clips is bordering on comical.
Will his players get that amount of time and space in the Championship?

As a lot of us maybe looking for consolidation next season, perhaps Mick McCarthy to at least steady the ship. If we looking to bounce straight back, then for me it'll be an upcoming manager i.e Potter or Warburton. They would be a gamble, bit not as big as the punt on Cameron Toshack/Britton combo. That has disaster all over it.

The clips are mostly from Europa League rather than Sweden. First two were against Galatasaray.

I remain unconvinced on Potter. But we aren't in a position to be picky. Frank De Boer is the latest name on the list.
De Boer is an interesting one isn't it?
His track record at Ajax says absolutely.
His track record after Ajax says not in a million years.
Like you say though, we are not in a position to be picky and the fact we're being linked with a previous Ajax manager, one of the hottest managerial talents working his way up and one of our ex-heroes in Laudrup is much better than it could have been.
Watch as we end up with Moyes

lol Graham Potter is literally linked with every f*cking club that sacks their manager..And the only reason anybody even heard of him because he's English and had a nice success story in some foreign small time league. If he was Swedish,nobody would have given a toss about him.
There was a documentary on him and the team when they were going to play Arsenal. If he does become manager our players wont know whats hit them. Its a different world to what is expected of players in British league, they actually entertain the community. The players performed and sang in a choir and staged plays which they all took part in front of the community. It was very interesting but he would certainly find it very strange how our players live their luxurious lives.

Was just thinking he'd steady the ship that's all. Did ok at Ipswich with no money, and did get Wolves promoted don't forget. I didn't congratulate the Bassies, if you can find my post where I did? Go easy on me PJ...I'm still grieving..and not functioning properly!!
