Yes he definitely would, although there are a hell of a lot of clubs within an hour or so of his home, but my point was more about whether he would settle down south.
He'd probably be willing to give it a go but we really don't need someone getting homesick a couple of months into the job. But...
Of the younger managers being discussed, he would get my vote, I think he would be far more likely to be loyal and as it would be his first managerial position, he would probably want to put his own stamp on the team much like Gus did. That takes time.
My only doubt with Phil Neville, is about...
I'd be happy with that.
I'd also be happy with tony mowbray, or anyone else that plays decent football and is perhaps a little older and a little less likely to use the club as a stepping stone.
Although Sherwood, Clement and Garde appear to be more exciting choices I don't think any of them...
