    Sure Koeman will be fine (but please be Tuchel)

    Someone tell me you've seen Tuchel somewhere in Hampshire. Make it up if you have to, just make it sound convincing. I need this.

    I am not saying that this is connected either, but I saw Collette Nolan eating lunch yesterday in Covent Garden. She was smoking and had a glass of wine with her fish and chips. I think the pressure of the interview process was getting to her!

    Mancini would contradict the fact they already had 4 candidates and have a candidate and they are just going through the paperwork. Mancini wasn't available when this was quoted, so unless they undo the process I would suggest he's a non starter.

    Again, I'm not saying it's at all likely, but surely he would have known for a long enough that he would leave Galatasaray. Not impossible that he would have been part of the process from the beginning.

    Indeed. Gala have reportedly already got their replacement lined up as well in the Shakhtar boss Mircea Lucescu. Mancini's resignation went public today, but lots can happen before these things go public.

    A Mancini/Osvaldo axis would be an interesting one I guess.

    (Imagine if Osvaldo tried to nut Koeman. We'd be finding bits of him in the Solent for years to come).

    Tim Sherwood is looking for employment with an ambitious club.

    Problem is ambitious clubs wouldn't want him. Bit of a catch-22 isn't it.

    A club in league one could be ambitious (I can think of one or two recent examples), and probably not above appointing him.

    Remember Sherwood has a superb win rate and wasn't shy of using youth players and under his management Eriksen and Adebayor played the best football of their careers. Koeman nearly relegated Valencia when they had David Silva, David Villa, Mata and other stars, so don't think of him as a messiah, yet. As he done well in Holland, but so did Steve McClaren and Martin Jol.

    For all that people like to point to Sherwood's win rate, his loss rate was 41% - that cannot be ignored.

    It was also a relatively short period of time and he didn't build the team.
