Played in the Europa League/UEFA Cup twice (possibly more?)...it doesn't entirely rule him out, although does imply that they want somebody with CL experience.

Yep. Just making sure I've got a nice collection of screen shots.

IN 2014 (on fm10) I HAD MESSI, AGUERO AND RONALDO as a front three, don't see Fergie doing that!

Get Phil Brown in....

Tummy · 8 May 2013 at 12:53

Mancini? I mean, he probably wouldn't need to move house?

The Running Man · 8 May 2013 at 12:53

No ones mentions schteve McLaren yet. Or Carlos querez

Tummy · 8 May 2013 at 12:53

Redknapp?

Scenes if true. Scenes.

Wenger to go and bring them down from within

He's had European experience with Everton albeit not Champions League.

Moyes does have European experience, albeit limited.

Well unless the mickey mouse cup is now our target that's all fairly irrelevant

Otherwise we'd be after Hodgson...

Ben Jacobs ‏@JacobsBen
I have just been told by Jose Mourinho's camp that #ManchesterUnited have not made any approach to Jose #Mourinho.

Furthermore, the claim from Mourinho's camp is the Special One was "as surprised as anyone" to hear Sir Alex had left.

Seems there is only one man in it.

If we're going down this route, my Arsenal team in 2015 have Ozil and Rooney stuck in the reserves

Think of it this way, the last time Fergie said he was retiring the front runners were Sven Goran Eriksson and Martin O'Neill.

Semantics, but Gill said 'domestic and European', doesn't specifically say English (Premier League). I can't imagine they'd rule out managers from the Spanish and German leagues just because they haven't managed in England.

Who knows, maybe they are again...

Sven is 100/1, it's almost guaranteed

Ozil looks like an Alien and Rooney is over rated

Heads up.

Shamikebab · 8 May 2013 at 13:00

What is Sven even up to these days?

Mourinho also wouldnt get the same kind of money to spend on new players

I think that is one of the reasons why he wouldn't actually succeed in that job, and I don't think it will be him.

Sky reckon Moyes could be named as manager as early as this afternoon
