Next Swansea manager: US owners want Bob Bradley to be considered but Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs remains first choice

New American owners want former US coach to be on shortlist to take over from Francesco Guidolin

SWANSEA’S new American backers want to talk to former United States coach Bob Bradley about becoming their new boss.
The Yanks are keen for Bradley to be considered for the post as Francesco Guidolin struggles and the Welsh outfit search for a replacement.


Ryan Giggs is top of the wanted list drawn up by Swansea supremo Huw Jenkins, but the Americans insist that Bradley should be a contender.
Bradley, 58, is currently coach at French Second Division side Le Havre but is best known for a six-year spell with the United States national team.
And that means a lot to the American investors Jason Levien and Steve Kaplan who have pumped cash into the club.


Giggs's lack of experience as a manager is a nagging concern for the Americans and even bringing in a sidekick like Phil Neville leaves that doubt.
Bradley has never worked in England either but has a long CV. He could also involve former Everton player Landon Donovan in a management team.
Donovan, a key player for Bradley at international level, is advising Swansea and could become even more part of the scene.

The treatment of a man in post, want him or not, disgusts me. And yes, I know it's probably the norm, but it is just so c*ntish. He has always acted with dignity. The club must be colluding in this too, or at least passively condoning it. Remember all those lofty ideals Jenks.....not just another football club eh?

It looks like a straight choice between Bob Hope and no hope.

At least the Merrycans may back Bob as he's one of them

Maybe. Paranoid maybe, but it's looking a bit co-ordinated to me, and I doubt Moralee would know who Bob Bradley is.

He certainly wouldn't know what integrity looked like.

Omfg. Now managing Le Havre. Halfway down Division 2 in France. 1 win in the last 6.
Mmmmmmm.

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

But he's cheap and knows how to say yes in at least 2 languages.
Right up Jenkins street.
So he'll tell the Merrycans that it is film sequel perfect

If true, I very much doubt this has got anything to do with Jenkins. Worrying times ahead.

If this was to happen maybe that's the most positive way of looking at it. They'd make themselves look total fools if they made the decision to appoint BB and he was then a failure.

Backing him financially would be the best way to give him a chance.

Aye.
If some of our more vocal (certainly on here, probably not at the ground!) so called supporters won't back Guido, then maybe the Merrycans will back a person they choose.
Maybe they'll get him the coaching staff and scouting network that can really do a good job for the club, even if the manager can't
Could understand totally if the Yankees didn't accept Jenkins's input about the playing side in any shape or form
How the loving f**k could anyone trust someone who signs Ngog and a few others, to pick a manager or players?

As I said.
Bob Hope would be better than No Hope and his team of proven coaches.
How are Salford FC doing by the way?
Have they made the Conference yet?
Because when they do, the gruesome 5some will have a conflict of interest according to League rules.
Even the FA Cup could prove to be a problem.

Crikey that's a lot of words for the Scum !

We desperately need a win against the high-flying scousers on the weekend to get this crap off the back pages !

Fuk my eyes, the rumours are getting worse each passing day, I hope Jenkins and his cronies are now realising just what they've done, if any of this shit is true.

Guidolin needs reassuring from the club over the next few days, this is totally unacceptable, they need to show him some respect by dismissing these rumours or send him on his way.

The Club is becoming a right vipers nest, well done all of you

And some of the so called supporters who keep pushing 'Fail to turn up for Wales again' Giggs and his cronies need to take a hard look at themselves.
Not supporting Guido or his team at all.

From Wiki

"It was reported on January 2, 2014, that Bradley had agreed to manage Stabæk Fotball, making him the first American to manage a club in a European top flight."

Enough said.
