And my other big concern with an internal appointment is the style of play won't change. They'll be left with clear instructions on formation, style of play etc. it'll be defensive, boring football again (especially when good players like mirallas leave due to lack of inspiration from the new manager).we'll sit back on 1-0s.
Moyes is creating his nest egg. If (for me, when) it all goes wrong at united he'll be back. And he won't want these pesky expectations or even entertainment to get in the way of a seamless return...

We have the perfect chance to kick on with a forward thinking fresh new Manager and instead the clown running the Club will go for stale and boring.

I only really want Pereira or De boer.

Really surprised 177 blues want Martinez in. His Wigan have always finished near the relegation places, then finally was relegated this season. Ok, he knocked us out and won the cup, but I'm not convinced he'll match Moyes' league form.
His Wigan also conceded over 70 league goals this season...
The other two favourites also have question marks, which others have already talked about in this thread:
Pereira's contract isn't being renewed by Porto and the thinking behind it is because he's aloof and delegates rather than hands-on coaches. Sounds like Benitez (a candidate tainted by red association).
Laudrup's biggest question mark isn't the 10m pay-off (we should pay it, no question), but his length-of-service with other clubs. He's been through 5 in 7 years. If he has one good season with us, he might be off at the first hint of a slightly 'better' job.
What about other names from the portugese/italian/spanish/french leagues? Bielsa? Blanc?
Poyet is now favourite in the betting, but he has no top-division experience (like Mackay, Freedman), and apparently was suspended by Brighton because of some dodgy shenanigans.
Neil Lennon courts trouble (tho' to be fair he's had some true nutters on his case), but the main point against his candidacy is his lack of experience in a top league (see also Stuart McCall). Anyway, anyone can win the Scottish title with one of the Glasgow clubs (just ask Walter Smith).
Internal candidates like Neville, Stubbs, Weir, Round, Ferguson et al don't inspire much excitement (apart from Dunc to be fair). But Kenwright might decide this is the safest option in lieu of outstanding candidates elsewhere.
Then we've got the bland proven-mediocre merry-go-round managers like Bruce, McCarthy, Holloway, Hughes, McLeish, Megson etc. Less said about such candidates the better.
Who's left? Mancini, Ancelotti & Di Matteo won Big Cups with their Big Money clubs...but are they Everton-material? Mancini's a prick, but he's a proven winner. Di Matteo's done well in his short stints as manager...why on Earth hasn't he already got a job? Ancelotti & Mourinho may be available, but there's more chance of us signing Rooney in the summer than the special fella and the arch-eyebrow joining us.
Bundesliga? The current Best League In The World might offer us some candidates in the form of Tuchel, Hyypia/Lewandowsi, Slomka, and others. Tho' Magath & Schaaf may not fit culturally.
From all that lot, I would vote for the double-act of Hyypia/Lewandowsi (finished 3rd this season behind the big two). Yes, it means an ex-kopite kaptain managing us, but perhaps rather him than the plump waiter?

I'm not sure why you wrote all that out but I found it interesting in this moment where I can't effing sleep.
However, I think Hyypia is staying at Leverkusen:

But sadly the brutal honesty is we can suggest as many names as we like. Boss foreign chaps, random journeymen, internal prospects, it makes no difference what we think. It could be anyone. But more likely a no one.

If Hyypia comes then maybe we could get Henchoz as goalkeeping coach.
