    Hard to believe Knutsen will ever leave there, linked with hundreds of jobs so don't know why this would be different.

    No shame in losing against a decent Monaco side.

    But thats two games in a row he lost with nearly double the possession, shots, shots on target and corners than the opposition.

    If he does leave I'd be amazed if it'd be to us, still.

    He's even more sought after than Hayen, surely. Wilfred Nancy seems more believable knowing us.

    There seems to be this notion that Knutsen is going to be an almost guaranteed success wherever he goes. I'd be wary of him just as easily repeating his achievements elsewhere. There's something of the 'perfect fit' with him & Bodo I feel. He's been at them a long time now, firstly as their assistant manager and he's been allowed to build something. That patience is thin on the ground at some of the clubs he's been linked with, including us.

    Think MON is too smart to take the job on full time.
    He’s already a legend at Celtic, and this short stint has only heightened his status. He’ll have seen what happened to Lennon and BR when things go bad, don’t think he wants to risk his legacy.

    Maybe until the end of the season, he has nothing to lose this year, but can’t see him wanting to go any further than that!

    Muscat is pish in the AFC champions league, they're last, not convincing in the league either. I don't want him, not that I've seen any actual links to him either

    Knutsen said the other day he was ready for a new challenge. Seen an article saying the last thing he had to achieve was getting Bodo to the CL and he wants to see that campaign out. Think now is the time to ask the question for sure. I’d maybe even leave MON until the end of the season and ask Knutsen to get involved after Bodo exit the CL with the view of taking over at the end of the season. It would still allow him to be here and see what he has and where he ways to improve the squad.

    The Craig Bellamy chat is growing and it scares the * out of me. Would literally be the worst option we could go for. Might as well bring back Neil * Lennon.

    simply can't be true.
