Since Fox was at Arsenal should he not consider asking David Dein to join and consult on the new manager recruitment?

I was thinking that too - however Dein's reputation is based mainly on recruiting Wenger when hardly anyone had heard of him.  He may have just got lucky with Wenger, who knows? 


Valid point, it's either going to be someone unexpected or someone predictable like Sherwood

Javier Aguirre, ex Mexico manager. Looking for a job, speaks good English.
Got in a spot of bother for match-fixing, but we could probably do with a bit of that at the moment.

Tim Sherwood does sound like an unimaginative appointment: great on motivation, not so great on tactics. Depressingly, he seems to be the favourite.

I would hope Tom Fox reads this before thinking about Sherwood:

Sherwood did really well bringing the youth into the squad without sacrificing wins. He's got a knack for winning and I think he'd do well for us. Our squad needs a boot up their ass.

Big doubts about Michael Laudrup. He doesn't strike me as someone who would be committed enough.

He definitely isn't. However, if he gets us out of this hole, it might just be worth it.

Sherwood thought he could play possession ...

...Jeeps
Who would you have...
Prandelli, if we're going ambitious. But if we're shopping at Lidl rather than Waitrose? I really don't know. It's pretty grim out there right now.

Yep mirrors my thoughts. That said Lidl Champagne is an award winner.
Lidl? It feels more like a trip to the food bank these days.

I think Tim Sherwood would be a hopeless appointment in the circumstances. Not experienced enough.
