Sven must stay! If he gets canned by Thaksin, then he’ll have more time for the show.

Capello, Redknapp or — ahem — Aide Boothroyd would be fine additions. I fancy Neil Warnock, too, or guest-appearances by Roy Keane & Niall Quinn as Siamese twins, connected at the earlobe.

It’s a glorious tabula rasa, that show.

If Thaksin hires Jose then I think keeping Sven will be brutally funny. Too brutal really. Manchester City has a cupboard full of young talent and all of their signings combined were the cost of Fernando Torres so I’m not sure why Sven is getting sacked.

It would have to be a champion…. How many of those people above are champions?

Not McClaren, not keegan, not grant (not yet anyway, unless you count smaller foreign leagues), not jewell, not redknapp (again, not yet)

Cabbage, arsene, alex, rafa are all champions, as is becks.

However, I hope sven isnt dismissed from both jobs. He will have no excuse of being late now anyway lol

Ditto on Capello. David Beckham would probably be a great punching bag too…

Whoever is best for Nery to get a good chance at proving himself. Sven seem to have a lot of confidence in him.

I like the idea of an in-studio guest weekly. I honestly thought of a certain accent, in particular a completely unintelligible Scottish accent that sounds more like mumbling than anything else, but couldn’t come up with anything. Maybe they could import someone from north of the border.

Though I’m still sticking with Capello as my #1.

If other than a gaffer; Joey Barton the Philanthropist or Brad Friedel’s Accent could make guest appearance auditions.

I for one hope puppet Sven stays. But if he has to go, Redknapp or Keegan could work. I would love to see a one-off just like you said, with Jose making fun of Avram and AV answering in one word answers. But it would get old. Right now, I’d take Sven over any of these.
