Slight change of topic but thought I'd bring it to the table anyway, with regards to our next manager. I know further down we had the discussion regarding Giggs getting the job but do people really think he will? When you look around this season there is a few high calibre candidates. Obviously lvg, rightly IMO, stays another year at least. Ancelotti has said he is taking a 12 month sabbatical ( for medical purposes ) but could he become an option in 12 months? Top manager. Also Pep looks like he will be available in 12 months. Does anyone think these guys might be holding out for the United job? Knowing lvg is short term? There is also Klopp available but as its this year I find it unlikely he will be available u less he takes a short term job somewhere. I actually feel he will end up at Liverpool this season.
Anyone similar thoughts?

I always thought Klopp and Pep would suit United and their history and style. I guess time will tell, will LVG stay the 3 years and if Giggs would be ready even earlier etc. I'm sure there are plenty of suitors to the United job tho.

i think giggs is being lined up for the job .
i don't think he would of been lvg first choice as his number1, so i would guess it must of been a club choice.
you would have to think if club want giggs in the current role it would be with a view of him getting the top job.
lvg has also said he expects giggs to take over after him

Personally the way I see it, pep has one year left at bayern. And is likely to leave and take a one year sabbatical after that, same as when he left barca. He has always expressed an interest in managing United, he's mentioned it many times and I think if he's out of work in LVGs 3rd and final year in charge I think it'll happen. Also worth noting both peps barca and bayern times were managed and largely put into place by LVG.

Pep will take over LVG, well that's his current pattern anyway. It would make sense Peps philosophy holds it's foundations in LVG's.
Also contract timings fit
