Who's available and who will come depends almost entirely on the level of ambition the club are prepared to show.
If we're serious about breaking the top six and are willing to throw some money behind that, plus a new stadium, Mourinho would already be here.
As we're not (there can be no disputing that now, right? We're literally keeping hold of a bloke with the lowest win percentage at the club in decades) the likes of Allegri, Spalletti, Wenger, Blanc, Marcelino, Tedesco, Pablo Machin, Luis Enrique, Van Bronckhorst, Bosz, Rudi Garcia and Kohfeldt are available.
If we were ambitious enough, you could add Benitez, Deschamps, Howe, Mancini, Arteta, Bielsa or Tuchel to that.
The most thing I'm excited about for this season is seeing the yellow bar on Sky Sports saying he's been sacked. Says it all about our club. Shambles since the 80s.
I suppose, playing Devil's advocate, if we sack yet another manager it's just admitting more mediocrity and failure, Tim.
And in another two years' time it'll just be the same.
You know I agree with you here, but just look at it that way. Whatever way this turns out, it's mediocre and a failure.
And there is no way we are in a good enough position to attract an elite manager.

Warnock?I have said it before but we need a big personality in the dug-out.
The last time I felt rejuvenated was when Royle got the job in '94 and Moyes immediately struck a chord also with his "People's Club" comments.
No doubt it's a tough job but the whole club and players need rallying now.
Some intellectual student of the game is fine but we badly need leadership and even a bit of charisma.
