Yes, as mad as it may sound right now, you can surely never rule out Jose Mourinho becoming Manchester United's manager. His time at Chelsea seems like it will be relatively long, but you can just never tell when he will fall out of love with the club, players or an owner. That said, perhaps United would feel it would look weak to appoint Mourinho as the replacement of the man they picked over him in the summer.
Perhaps not considered royalty in the circle of European managers, Antonio Conte has a vastly superior record to Moyes. With Juventus, the 44-year-old Italian has dominated in recent years.
Fabio Capello in England is now seen as a failure. His hugely unimpressive 2010 World Cup with England explains that. But at club level, he has been simply a huge success with 13 major trophies.
Louis van Gaal is set to depart his position as Holland's National Team coach after the 2014 World Cup, leaving him wide open for a Premier League job. Tottenham have been widely rumored to be the most likely destination for the Dutch coach. There are few managers with such impressive trophy hauls than van Gaal. He'd be a confident and secure replacement, but perhaps not a long-term pick at 62.
Jurgen Klopp already has more than enough silverware to his name compared to David Moyes to put himself in the running for a seat at Old Trafford, but it's not even the silverware that makes him the favourite. It's the fact he has an attacking, dynamic and exciting playing style that would simply fit United perfectly. A big personality would be required, and Klopp has that. His passion for bringing through younger players would also be a huge bonus.
