Stevie G Favorite To Take Over At Newcastle

Or at least joint favorite with Antonio Conte. Do the bookies know something we don't? Maybe a phone call or some meeting between the two parties.

Steven Gerrard has done pretty well at management. Definitely better than that big mouth Gary Neville and most other players of his generation.

The Newcastle job will be fairly easy given the $300 million available to spend. The biggest job would probably be to manage the big egos which someone like Stevie can do given his stature in the English game.

Will be interesting to see how long Newcastle take to get up and running from relegation battlers to possibly Champions.

There's a bit of a deja vu feeling about this. It is like the early 90s all over again with Dalglish going over to manage Blackburn and Jack Walker's millions. Seems rather quaint, the sums of money we were used to in the 90s. How the world has changed!
