    I'm surprised van gaal is in the running, due to his personality.. and age.. I'd like giggs but no idea, klopp ideally..

    I think the key question for a new manager will be are they prepared to work with the Class of '92 hanging around or will they want a clear-out - probs either way methinks...

    The class of 92 have to stick around.. like the Babes they are the history of the club.. Barca keep people involved.

    If Giggs wins his remaining 4 games and goes for it I think he'll be in contention.. I'd get Rene back at the club too.. I think Moyes big mistake was getting rid of too many of the coaching staff, he brought in Giggs but you get the impression they didnt see eye to eye football wise...

    I cant see Keane coming back in, he's insulted too many of the playing staff..

    Come on Iain, 3 out of 4 are at home against lowly teams.

    Only test is Southampton away and they have gone off the boil now.

    I know.. and aren't 3 at OT?

    But we haven't won 4 in a row for a while..

    But if Klopp doesnt want it, there's not too many about.. Simeone is still just getting going, most are too old..

    Blanc? But he's still building at PSG...

    Giggs knows the club, respected by fans, some good players dont make great managers, some do.. look at Pep?

    I think Giggs has a better chance than folk are letting on. If he was 3 years older and Moyes had drifted on for a bit longer Giggsie would have been in real contention

    They have drawn up a short list: Gordon Strachan, Lou Macari, Nobby Stiles and Mickey Thomas - all only 5'6".
    Stipulating "must speak good English" rules out a return for Sir Alex!
