Based on the last one, give people the option to vote for their least favourite three times, and he'll definitely be appointed.

Dreamland but very unlikely would be Poch or Mancini.
As a more realistic option I think Rodgers would do well here.

We already employed his son, and he didn't keep us up.

Make them the best-paid manager in Europe and offer them £300m to spend in the first year and why not? It worked for Chelsea, Man City, and looks like it may work for Newcastle.
Why should we be the only club whose money is powerless?

Pochettino
Mancini
Rodgers
Probably the best chance we’ll ever have of getting the first two names.

Someone vaguely competent would be an upgrade.
It’s all a bonus from there.

Nile Rodgers
Ted Rogers
Or (maybe) Brendan Rodgers.
Failing that, Micah Richards. He always sounds like a smart, switched on individual.

My set up preference would be:
• Michael Beale as manager.
• Steven Gerrard as motivational speaker, leader and inspirer of dreams.
• Micah Richards as fitness coach.
• Gabby Agbonlahor on analytics.
• Martin O’Neill as club accountant.
• Jack Grealish as Loyalty Scheme manager.
In other words, the winning combination.

Here's my amended list again...
Currently unemployed
1. Pochettino (unlikely)
2. Zidane (highly unlikely)
3. Quique Setién
4. Lauren Blanc
5. Villas-Boas
6. Bielsa
Employed
7. Simeone (unlikely)
8. Potter

Nicked from a Lester messageboard:
Lampard since arriving at Everton:
P23, W6, D4, L13 (22Pts) - 0.95PPG
Rodgers since Lampard arrived at Everton:
P22, W6, D6, L10 (24Pts) - 1.09PPG
-----------------------------------------------------------
Gerrard since arriving at Villa:
P29, W11, D4, L14 (37Pts) - 1.27PPG
Rodgers since Gerrard arrived at Villa:
P29, W8, D8, L13 (32Pts) - 1.10PPG
They are desperate to get rid of him.

Would not have Rodgers, his team is no better than ours, Gerrard said after the match he will keep going keep trying until he is told otherwise, even he realises the tap on the shoulder is coming.

Brendan Rodger’s looks like the most obvious but uninspiring appointment.
I think we are about to find out if NSWE are still ambitious because The silky tongued Purslow announcing Rodger’s just won’t do it for me.

Who is gonna join now the window is shut? It’s a huge job from here now. Gerrard has left us in a terrible position, the next manager will have no wingers because he’s let them all go
