What would be best for the club; Shearer coming in as KK's number 2 and then later as number 1 once KK steps down, with the risk of it all going to hell and both of them getting sacked OR if Shearer managed a smaller champinonship-ish club first, getting some experience as a manager and later coming home to manage us, with the risk of KK bringing the club to hell without Shearer or Shearer making such a mess of his first club that he would never be considered as manager again (ie bringing Southampton to relegation and making half their players and staff leave or commit suicide) ??
