Not according to them. You’d imagine he has admirers closer to home but you never know.

I'd still have Corberon.

Good knowledge of the Championship, done a great job with both Huddersfield and West Brom, knows our squad well, knows the club, and Bielsa said he was a gun.

I know I'm in the minority, but don't see what more he can do tbh.

I think that’d be a bust if I’m honest

Supposedly they’re going to have the biggest budget ever in the Championship

Edit: Maybe that headline is deceptive as their wage bill is huge

The knows the club thing always gets trotted out and it makes zero difference to anything.

He's done well domestically that can't be argued and with limited budgets. The worry I'd have is one I have with many, and that's can they handle the expectations here and not get chewed up and spat out.

Expectations are very different at Huddersfield/West Brom to here and it sinks Manager after Manager as we've seen. Corberan folded fast in his first big job with any expectations.

It's going to need a very good Man Manager with a lot of belief in themselves to cope and take us back up.

I'm just not convinced Corberan is that man.
