3 of the coaches who may be on the list have still to see the season out as well.Tbh I doubt the club would be telling him they have made up their mind until it’s official so it sort of feels like a non story.
That being said I’m actually okay with this if it is the truth. Fact is we aren’t going to have a manager in place and working until summer so I’d rather they take all the time they need to asses all the options and come to the right conclusion rather then rushing it just to appease the fans as it won’t really change anything in the immediate future. Yes it might boost morale somewhat but the team performances won’t changes. They need to get this appointment right, there is no room for failure and as much as it is frustrating ultimately as long as we come to the right fit then I’m not so bothered about it taking until the end of the season.
Let's say the club really like Slot and put him top of the list. But then Feyenoord blow the title and get KOd by Roma.
Doubts will creep in if we've chosen the right guy.
Same for Kompany, if Burnley started losing all their games and lost focus doubts would arise.
The good news is a lot of this will be concluded soon so we'll get a good idea
