In an imperfect world, Sven is light years ahead of Bob.

Someone who seems to have been overlooked by everyone is Didier Deschamps.....

Has proven himself a good manager in France, a World Cup winning captain who also played in the Premier League.

That is someone I could get excited about.

That's a pretty good shout actually. Gettable too as he nearly went to Newcastle about 18 months ago.

Certainly an upgrade on Bob, but his volatile relationships with the Board at Monaco and Juventus will not reassure Randy.

What about if we want a young emerging manager, Di Matteo?

I think that Di Matteo has done well, but would be better served by remaining at the Baggies a little longer.

If it had to a former manager to take over, from GT mark 1 up to MON who would you choose?  For me it would be Big Ron, he would get this team firing with a bit of flare.

Sky Bet still have Big Bob at odds on,
 but Koeman has come in from nowhere at 6/1 and even mcleish is down to 10/1

someone must have put a tenner on big ecc to make the odds tumble
