Derby: Rams hoping to make Liam Rosenior their permanent manager
Derby County are hoping to make interim manager Liam Rosenior their permanent boss in the near future, according to journalist Alan Nixon.
The Lowdown: Rosenior in temporary charge
The Rams are tackling life in League One after last season’s relegation from the Championship, with Wayne Rooney making the decision to move on as manager earlier this year.
Rosenior has been in a role as interim boss since June and he has done a solid yet unspectacular job so far, with Derby sitting ninth in the table with seven matches played and the temporary boss winning six and drawing two of his first 10 games in charge.
A new update has emerged over the last 24 hours which suggests that the 38-year-old’s role at Pride Park is about to be upgraded.
The Latest: Rosenior wanted permanently
Taking to Twitter on Sunday morning to share a corresponding link from his Patreon profile, Nixon claimed that Derby are now aiming to make Rosenior their permanent manager.
He tweeted a link to Patreon with the caption: “Derby push to keep Rosenior.”
The Verdict: Right decision by Derby
This would be a correct decision by Derby, with Rosenior doing well enough to suggest that he is the right man to take the team forward at what has been a difficult time for the club off the pitch.
Making him permanent manager should bring more stability to the club and arguably allow the players to feel more settled, with the Englishman a young manager who looks set to embark on his first role in full charge of a club at senior level.
The most important thing for now is focusing on getting back into the Championship – if Rosenior manages that this season, he will surely become an instant hero to Derby supporters.
