I've heard Wenger might be out of a job in the summer.

No, seriously. Either Capello or Klinsmann would be good. No to Mourinho. You'll end up sacrificing too much for it to be viable.

For me easily Jose, but then Gus or jurgen could also be good so now I don't know

Think outside the box. Give Garth Crooks or Gary Linekar shout. And they're English. The only foreign manager I've ever rated was Ossie.

Klinsmann is a good call, if he would leave managing the US Team. However I would like us to look at possibly Hoddle, he has all the right credentials, known on the world stage, has matured and I also think has the contacts in the game to succeed.

If we were struggling, then I would grab Rogers like a shot. However this role might be just above his current level, then again he does play Spurs style football with players rated lower than our squad, which tells me he might be worth a punt!!

Over to you Daniel!

Frank Rijkaard

How many players has José bought at Real?

What's his net transfer spend? Similarly with Inter Milan.

He only spent at Chelsea because he had to strengthen the squad and Roman was stuffing money in his hand.

jose bought ozil khadira di maria concentrao or whatever his name is.

so thats 4 straight away which probably cost about 100 mill

Rijkard is an interesting call, hadn't thought of him.

There's a misconception that José requires an enormous budget. I think if he knew he'd have players like Bale, VDV, Modric etc and perhaps up to £50mil or so to spend, it could be quite appealing to him.

How about Chris Hughton, Spurs through and through, and has proved himself at lower league level, and is now ready for the step up.

How about Chris Hughton

--------

no no no no no no no no no no no

i like him,. but no no no no no no no

how is hughton gonna attract the kind of world class striker we crave?

bale and modric will be looking closely at our appointment, and so a big name is a must in this situation.

hughton is a massive risk at a time when we cant afford it

King Chronic.........................Correct! Hughton is not in my opinion ready (or never might be) to manage at the very top. He also does not have the gravitas that people like Mourinho, Lowe, Hiddink, Hoddle etc have....................

It would be foolish to dismiss Capello as (in club football) he is one of the best around.

Clearly Jose would be fantastic, with CL football and a financial war chest in the summer, the 2012-13 season would be the most anticipated since the 60s...

A lot depends on securing CL football though which is why we need Harry to stay and focus on the job at WHL til May... Pearce can take charge of England - Holland and Harry can announce the finals squad the day after the final game of the season (Fulham)..

As for the other candidates, I agree with the above posters - Bale and Modric will be watching intently and any new manager has to be high profile as well as a step up (at least on paper) from Harry.

Hiddink, Lowe, Mancini (should City give him the bullet), Van Gaal....
