Because of the hugely expensive Spanish blockage in the way. |  | |  |

The QPR summer managers rumours thread on 07:16 - May 30 with 2943 views | dmm | Some interesting, if strange, changes. Three new random names have appeared: Onur Cinel (Red Bull Salzburg assistant) at 6/1, Raffaele Palladino (Fiorentina manager) at 8/1 and Stefano Pioli (AC Milan manager!) at 8/1. Thorup now 2/1. |  | |  |

None of us are allowed to know anything so why should the bookies be different. They'll set odds based on money coming in and potential payouts. |  |

Cinel left Salzburg yesterday. Either the two things are connected or punters are assuming they are connected. Either way, both Cifuentes and Beale were appointed from relative obscurity so this sort of appointment feels much more likely than the names bouncing around in last month. |  | |  |

The Pioli link is hilarious, maybe he just likes West London? Italian Stefano Pioli, the head coach of Al Nassr, leads the list of the highest earners in the Roshan League, earning £15.5 million annually, equivalent to £298,000 weekly. This hefty salary places him fourth globally among the highest-paid coaches for 2025 |  | |  |

Yes and Palladino´s odd are pure comedy too. Fiorentina are top 6-8 club in Italy, of course he fancy coming to the lower midtable Championship club |  | |  |

Meanwhile, in the real world, it looks as if the former Norwich coach will in all likelhood take over from the MC. A Norwich team that conceded more goals than us. Essentially, his sole role was to make their defence more watertight, as their ability to score goals was never an issue. He failed, royally. That team should have been much closer to the play-offs, if not in the top six. Yet, he's deemed as being an upgrade on the MC. It's derisory. Of the two, there's only one person who managed to get the optimum, in terms of performance, from their respective team's ability last season. [Post edited 30 May 9:52]

Yup, and Cleverley still 2nd 4/1. He is just the same as Thorup. |  | |  |

... Or the bookies and punters speculating and guessing just as much as us. Meanwhile a far better manager than any of those sat in his garden on full pay. Omnishambles. |  | |  |

But in all seriousness we wouldn’t know anything bar rumours until the deal is done. It’s like the list of those players under negotiation, I know we are the fans etc but these are personal negotiations not public negotiations. Not defending anyone here just the way of the world, it’s obvious the press have as much clue as we have. |  | |  |

Who says he’d have to come to west London? A role at QPR, while doing another, higher profile job, working remotely in the middle-east…Equally strange things have happened |  | |  |

Apologies. They were deficient defensively, whilst offensively, the second highest scorers in the league. |  | |  |

I'm not expecting him to stay if - well, when, sigh - Marti goes but apparently, Calm used to handle the defensive side of our coaching. Marti focused on the attacking part. |  |
