Barcelona is still a massive job regardless of the financial trouble.

The most realistic outstanding candidate for me.

Isn’t it pretty much confirmed Jones is in for Chelsea so any odds changes this week would be likely irrelevant?

I’m happy to wait for the right man for the next couple of weeks but surely the deadline to get the new man in is Brighton game at the latest. Can’t afford to waste the 2 week international break

Only thing with Rafa is I’m not sure he works with a DOF ?

Wonder if Rafa was Ando’s surprise name ?

I think it’s far fetched but if Everton where to lose the next 2 before the international break then there is a deal to done.

Isn’t Pearson currently stinking it ulnar Bristol city who haven’t won at home in a record breaking run of about 21 games ?

Favre also seems to me to be the most likely to be a more stop gap short term appointment.

Safe to say if they have reservations over Fonseca’s style of play currently not suited to what we need right now, they will surely then be having the same concerns over Howe and Martinez?

They haven’t actually ever said that one journo said it and it’s stuck.

For me the longer it takes the more I think it’s a currently employed manager they want.

Think we would all love someone to be in this week, however with it being Chelsea it’s easier to let jones have it. As long as they are in before the next international break I think we will be fine. I would also add that I’m hoping they aren’t doing all this due diligence and everything to then end up with Lampard, Howe, Martinez or Gerrard.

The likes of Amorim from sporting Jardim the ex monoco who worked with campos Basically a mix of up coming managers really but was a really good read

Would love them to be considering names on the athletics list of left field names the other day

Emery for me, would make us hard to beat, have us well drilled and tactically spot on and think he keeps us up easily

Howe gives me Pardew vibes I think he would be a disastrous appointment.

Quietest it’s been since the takeover in terms of any manager links today.

Yeah that was it ? Hope seems to be the only one distancing us from Lampard and Howe and I really hope he’s right.

Who did hope say he expect to be in the frame after this week? It was one from Emery, Martinez and do one else I think ?

As long as they are in by Brighton I’m relaxed, I wonder if PIF are involved in the interviews ?
