Can't surprise people he was bigging himself up on a national tv show. Can't agree with him on third best squad in the champ but he admitted he should've gone earlier so fair do's on that. He done a good job and stayed a little too long, but probably got out just before it went completely sour. There's not much more too it than that, he will rightly go down as one of our best ever managers even if his "plucky underdogs" line got a bit tiresome.

Sounds like he wants a job to tie him over until the end of the season. Sunderland could do a lot worse than getting him in to see them over the line promotion wise.
