Taking a popular bookmaker's websites odds for Wolves next manager, these are the potential candidates:
G. O'Neill 7/4, R. Edwards 5/2, M. Carrick 8/1, K.Muscat 8/1, R Borges 10/1, B. Rodgers 12/1, E Ten Hag 12/1, S. Conceicao 12/1, O G Solskjaer 14/1 and L. Carsley 16/1.
These are their manager % win records (in the same order): 31%, 37%, 47%, 53%, 49%, 54%, 62%, 61%, 53% and 65%.
* Borges has never managed outside of Portugal and all except O'Neill, Carrick, Rodgers and Solskjaer are currently employed by clubs!
O'Neill as you can see has the worst % win record of any of the candidates and if Shi should go with someone who is that bad then all hope will be lost!
So take your pick and try to guess which one, if any, Shi could/will go for.


Muscat could be worth a gamble but I will take a shot at someone who is not on that list and that is Marco Rose previously with Leipzig, Salzburg, Monchengladbach and Dortmund but currently without a club since March 2025.
His win record is 58%. His lowest being 43% and highest 71%.
The big question being, would Shi employ someone who would likely want a big salary and also, would Rose come to a club deep in the relegation mire?
I don't think so but, if you don't ask, you won't find out!

If it turns out to be GON/Edwards I think that will finish me as that would just be another £ lead appointment and confirm that Fosun haven't changed so what's the point.

Evidence that GON would be the worst possible candidate. Which means he's hot favourite. Joking apart, if he was given the job it proves Fosun are the worst possible owners.

If it’s GONE/ EDWARDS that’s me done financially.
I won’t buy any more shirts etc or attend any more games, I won’t put any more money in this management . I will return to games when new owners take over.
