My first reaction to this is how dare those temporary custodians of our club sack Kenny Dalglish. He's so much more than a football manager at our club, especially for what he did following Hillsborough.
In pure footballing terms this decision makes no sense at all unless they have a real ace up their sleeves to bring in as manager and give them another huge war chest full of cash to spend. Not to the owners - that's NOT Roberto Martinez.
A couple of names that would probably shock many people that I'd be happy with - Fabio Capello or Andre Villas-Boas. Capello's brand of football is dour but as a domestic manager his record is beyond compare. Even if you look back at the job he did with England the 'league' portion of the job he did (i.e. qualification) was superb. As for AVB he plays a great style of football which is a plus and again if you look back at his record in Portugal it was pretty incredible. Ok, he failed at Chelski but that has become a manager's graveyard more than any other club in Europe over the last 5 years. If Di Matteo doesn't win on Saturday I guarantee he'll be sacked despite his FA Cup win. It's almost an impossible job for anyone to stay in for too long.
Wouldn't want Rafa back to be honest. I still think fondly of him but I want the club to look forward now not backwards.
