Chelsea’s hunt for a new manager could line up perfectly with Eddie Howe’s departure from Newcastle, and one pundit would like that.

Football fans are often keen to see their manager sacked, especially when things really aren’t working out.
But often, once it comes to looking at the list of favourites to replace the fired coach, they end up having second thoughts. Is this really better than what we already had?
Chelsea fans almost universally wanted Liam Rosenior fired – but we’re not sure many of them would be happy were he replaced by Eddie Howe. And that’s a real possibility, with the Newcastle coach high on the lists from the bookies.
One person who would be in favour is Paul Merson. His piece from the Metro today makes it very clear he’s a fan of the former Bournemouth coach’s:
“I’m a big fan of Eddie Howe. If Eddie Howe leaves Newcastle, they’ll be queueing up around the corner for him.
“He’s just had injuries and with the [Alexander] Isak thing at the end of the season. I think Eddie has done enough to decide whatever he wants at the club. I think there’s a genuine love for him up there.”
Enzo Fernandez was the TNT Sport man of the match, but Joe Cole had a different suggestion of a player who played a crucial tactical role.
Robert Sanchez was picked out for praise for his performance in the game by pundits and by his manager Calum McFarlane.
