I thought deserved it's own spot, rather than putting it in one of the threads for each candidate.
It's a sign of how far we've come, that we're now involved in the game of top level managerial Tetris.
If the Real Madrid and and Juventus jobs become available, that affects the top end of the game. Which then impacts who Spurs, Napoli and Fiorentina can get. Which then affects who we can get. Gattuso now available and often linked, but surely a candidate for either Juventus or Fiorentina. But then Fiorentina have been linked with Fonseca, who has also been linked with us. Fonseca and Benitez have both been linked with us, but surely would be looked at by Spurs. There is no chance Zidane would come to us, but he's a Juventus legend so surely a chance he might go there, which then puts Gattuso back in play. Do Napoli go back to Sarri?
We are not on the same level as all these moves. But they do now impact our options. And to be in this position, when previous managerial conversations amongst Wolves fans has been about whether we get Garry Monk, or whether a Reading manager would leave for us, or which Championship level manager was out of work....it's pretty amazing.
