the article were these 3 were linked also says others will be on the shortlist. I'm expecting an overseas coach from Italy or Portugal 

Surely they should appoint O'Neil as he 'knows the club'?

Just read this.

O'Neil, Edwards and Carrick all linked. 

Madness to go back for O’Neil.

I watched/listened to Carrick on MOTD last night, talk about talking for the sake of talking and saying nowt!

Wolves are being linked with the re appointment of Gary O'Neil.

A manager who was doing an atrocious job that led to Pereira coming in and saving them. Would be a terrible appointment.

Then they can reappoint Pereira to save them again. Rinse and repeat, and keep that precious Premier Legaue money forever more.

Oddly the Wolves fans aren't having the "knows the club" airtight reasoning. Instead they're aghast.

I am one of few who think that Wolves should have kept O'Neil in the first place. Looking at where they are 12 months on from potting him seems like it was only putting off the inevitable. As has been pointed out selling the club's best players and replacing them with inferior replacements leads to trouble.

And yet still, certain clubs including our own, keep thinking that they can be the ones who will manage to do this and still manage to tread water

He was doing terrible when they left, everything had gone into chaos, discipline had totally gone and they appeared doomed. Pereira came in and did a great job rescuing them which made him a candidate for manager of the season.

Wolves fans appear to be absolutely fuming about his potential reappointment.

Wolves also another club basically owned and run by agents. 

A pattern perhaps?

Jamie Carragher has said that it isnt a surprise that O'Neil is set to be appointed at Wolves because, and its typical pundit rubbish, he "knows the club."

He does know the club, he got sacked a year ago because he was failing with it. Surely even an unknown is better than someone who they actively know has already failed with a lot of the same players!

Im sure it helps that O'Neil was apparently on Monday Night Football 2 weeks ago.

It's hardly a surprise Carragher will stick up for O Neill given the fact they have probably worked together as pundits.

I dont think O Neil was as bad at  Wolves as you are suggesting. Although I do have my doubts about whether reappointing him would actually work on the basis  of the general rule "They say you should never go back"

He was sacked last season with 9 points after 16 games. Pereira then got 33 from 22 games. How they can decide a year on that actually he is the man to take them forward is beyond me.

Apparently O Neill has just withdrawn his interest so you can calm down a bit.

Must have been reading your comments! 🙂

I think it will have been the Wolves fans comments that put him off!

Little update with Sunderland sitting 4th in the League.

Xhaka and his midfield partner have run further than any other players:

And on an overall player ratings website he's in the Top 10 for the Premier League:

Kyle Walker is number 193 on that list.

P.S. Your Bournemouth prediction is looking a bit flimsy too. 😉

Xhaka just bagged the equaliser against Everton as well.

Studio before game was discussing whether he's the signing of the season so far.

Certainly got to be in the conversation. Particularly if Sunderland go 2nd tonight, which looks possible. 

And considering the fee paid of less than £20 million compared to the astronomical fees for some other signings.
