Your preference for the next Manager?

Thats suggests that no one is actually 'lined up' and that they will now start working on it?
This rules out Moyes
And Klopp That man who has that experience must be Jose. Or Wenger. Or Ancelotti. Or AVB. Probably Jose.
England and Europe. That's pretty much Jose.
Moyes if you count Europa League.
Moyes if you count Europa League.
Everton have played UEFA cup ........
It doesn't rule out Moyes... as he has experienced European ties (albeit not in a good way).
Surely it must be Jose.
I think you're kidding yourself somewhat. I'm sure Gill counts the Europa league as European experience.
Whether is counts as 'good' Eurpoean experience is another matter tbh.
Wenger, Jose and Rafa.. Hodgon did get Fulham pretty far in the EL, didnt he?
Yeah but he is hardly massively experienced in Europe despite the UEFA cup run.
Laurent. Blanc.
He didnt say Uefa Champions League he said European Competitors so of course Moyes counts.
Where did he say Massive experience ?
Have Everton even been in Europe in recent years? I hope Gill didn't count Europa as experience!
It's Mourinho or Moyes I think, one way to make yourself stronger to prevent your rivals from getting stronger, Mourinho would do that.
We were more rubbish. But even Avram Grant was more impressive
If that is true it pretty much sounds like it's not Moyes especially considering that Moyes has no CL experience.
But it also won't be Klopp who has no experience in England.
My preference by a mile is Pep Guardiola, but that ship has sailed. David Moyes is a fine manager but I think it would be a huge gamble to hire him. He is completely untested at the highest level of club management, plus he replaces the greatest club manager in the history of British football. The thought of it unsettles me to be honest. This is the biggest decision in the modern history of Manchester United, get it wrong and it could be a huge embarrassment to the club. The decision should not be clouded by nostalgia, it should be firmly grounded in reality....who is going to deliver what the club requires?
Mourinho will deliver trophies to United....he delivers trophies wherever he goes.....and in reality that is all that truly matters when all is said and done, the size of the cabinet.
The issues with Moyes are;
Can he handle the intense pressure and scrutiny in succeeding Ferguson?
Can he continue the success Ferguson has maintained?
Would he hold the ultimate respect from his playing staff?
Would he wear a training kit or a fitted suit on the touchline?
Will he want to bring Gibson back to Old Trafford?

Benitez is it then.
He doesn't. Look I don't want Moyes, I need to think positively, stop pissing all over my thought processes
Phil Jones anyone?
Not really. Champions League qualifying round, UEFA cup and Europa League are all European competitions.
Gill makes it sound like it's not done yet though, which is interesting.
Once Dortmund win the CL Klopp will have as much experience of football in England as is needed
I have it say, getting Mourinho would be worth it for the Chelsea fans reactions alone. Yesterday they were probably all still certain he'd be going back there.
Plans have been in place for a long time but remained "in the drawer"
...it's Sven Goran Eriksson.

Pulis did well in Europe with Stoke, didnt he?
United are in the result business if we like it or not ,so it makes sense to get a manager with a good track record in the CL rather than someone who dipped their big toe in a europeon cup competition.
Jesus we are not seriously counting these as "experience" are we? Sad times
I wouldn't.
But technically Gill's comment is consistent with Moyes.

Some of you utd fans don't live in the real world do you. Yes... the europa league IS european experience...
It's not just all about the champions league you know
Moyes' Everton beat Wrexham once. That counts as European experience.
Mick McCarthy is a good lad, give him a call
I wouldn't be so sure. I remember reading that Mourinho applied for the Barcelona job in 2008. His presentation contained ideas for the following season, including appointing Pep Guardiola as his assistant manager.
Darren Fletcher has premier league and european experience
Notice he said "European experience" when he could have said "CL experience"

I really don't think when someone goes out of their way to mention the requirement of "European experience" they would be referring to the odd unsuccessful jaunt in the UEFA cup..
