Poyet.

Lambert to Villa?

I'm really hoping Sturridge busts out the wacky dip when he scores.

Martinez...

My thoughts too. But may be he wouldn't want to mess Wigan around anymore.

Wonder if David Moyes will be in the bookies favourites (he normally makes every list)

Rafa would have them in the 'Champions' League in 3 seasons.

Not without big financial backing he wouldn't.

It will more than likely be Graham Jones who was No2 to Martinez before they both went to Wigan. IIRC they did want Jones to stay and take over then but he wanted to go to the Premier League.

Could go back to Spain, but he does seem to love living in the UK.

Well he is highly respected in Spain but not in England due to the knowledgable football media we have here.

Got to be Puyet. Personally I thought he would be in with a shout for the WBA job but seemingly not.

Considering Valencia offered the job to Pellegrino ahead of him I doubt his reputation is that high.

Did you not read my post ^^^. Swansea have asked for permission to speak to Jones....

He is definitely rated high in Spain. The reason he probably didn't get offered the Valencia job is because he didn't get on with Llorente the president

Michael Laudrup is a name that's been thrown out there. His agent has denied any approach yet, but I'd love to see Laudrup in the Premiership. He'd be a good man to continue Rodgers' work there too.

More likely the The Championship.

Football has reached the ninth gate of farce and pathetic, unbelievable trite nonsense. It's supposed to be a game and it's turned into pantomime, hype, quilts and bellends.

The Bergkamp link was just a lie that started on Planet Swans that resulted in a betting frenzy. Also, according to Laudrup's agent there's been no contact from Swansea.

I reckon they'll talk to Holloway but I think there might be a surprise appointment.
£15m? It seems low, but what people have to remember is that the fee is irrelevant.
