The Next Manager at OLD TRAFFORD??

With David Moyes sacked as the manager of the Manchester United football team , the united hierarchy thinks its time to appoint a proven and a successful manager at the helm of the club. Jurgen Klopp was the numero uno choice for the post of manager but that went away in fumes when he declared that his association with the BvB fans and team was unbreakable. Luis Van Gaal looks set to take over, with reports suggesting Carlo Ancelotti also a possible man to replace Moyes.



1) Jurgen Klopp - The most sought after manager in Europe at the moment with clubs like FC Barcelona linked with him. It looks highly unlikely that he will come to Old Trafford after he stated that he was happy at Borussia Dortmund and would like to honour the agreement he has with the club till 2018.


2) Louis Van Gaal - Probably the next manager that Manchester United will appoint. Louis Van Gaal has won all the trophies that is available in the elite european competition. Be in the Dutch Eredivise & the UEFA Champions League with Ajax or be it the La Liga and the Bundesliga with FC Barcelona and FC Bayern Munchen. Currently contracted with the dutch team , he will say goodbye to his international career once the World Cup in Brazil gets over. A delegation has already met him in his portugal villa, more so The Glazers admire him a lot and want to have him on board.
But again his autocratic style of management doesn't have much supporters amongst the United board management. Even the latest news where it is reported that he wants to have Roy Keane as his assistant if given the United job won't go down well for the United hierarchy. But with The Glazers and ED-Woodward set to have the final say ahead of Sir Alex, it may well be Louis Van Gaal's job. Latest news suggest Van Gaal has accepted an offer.



3) Carlo Ancelotti- Yet another strong candidate for the job at Old Trafford. Ancelotti has already won Two Champions League crowns. Apart from that he has won the Scudetto , Premier League and the Ligue 1. Presently contracted at Real Madrid he has already won the Copa Del Rey defeating Barcelona in the finals. Last night's 1-0 Champions League win at the Santiago Bernabeu against Bayern makes them overwhelming favourites to reach the Champions League finals to be played in Lisbon. If he wins the double , I don't see him leaving , neither do I see him being sacked. So if he were to be sacked , the only reason would be a failure of lifting any one between Champions League and La Liga.  As winning just the Copa Del Rey isn't sufficient for a club such as Real Madrid.



4) Jose Mourinho- Possibly the most outside of the lot, it will be a sort of a miracle if he snubs Chelsea to come to Manchester United. But believe it or not Manchester United is the biggest club in England and also one of the biggest in the World. Infact, with Sir Alex's decision to retire everyone thought it was Jose Mourinho who would replace him. But the United hierarchy made the mistake by appointing Moyes. If Jose wins the Champions League with Chelsea this year he might want to leave Stamford Bridge for Old Trafford. He then would have all the trophies with Chelsea , though this could be a difficult task for United officials and even for the man himself. But it is no doubt that he will be adored by the Old Trafford fans and also United fans worldwide. It is not a unknown fact that today all the top managers in football do want to be the one to replace someone like SAF. Jose himself wants to do so.

Sir Ryan Giggs has totally been put out of the reckoning because every individual board member believes time has come too early for him to be a manager.
Others include the likes of Diego Simeone, Laurent Blanc.

Who would you like as your next manager??
