Doesn't anyone see the bigger picture? England will appoint a reliable, loyal boss for now but this will just be a temporary measure until a man who has been quoted as interested in the job steps forward - Jose Mourinho. And no, I'm not a Chelsea fan!
David Jones, Hertford, England

Many journalists have Martin O'Neill at the top of their wish list but I can't see him ever managing England, it just holds no appeal for him.
Niall O'Kane, Australia

The media should be realistic. Martin O'Neill is an Irishman who lived and breathed Scottish football for years with Celtic - he is not going to take the job. England should go all out for Alan Curbishley - he has almost single-handedly made Charlton a top half Premiership team
Sean, New Zealand

Faces stand for a great deal in the public relations, player and fan inspiration stakes. Martin O'Neill oozes credibility, guile, and determination. That he actually HAS a proven management record at the highest grade means that he is the complete package. We have superior player talent - lets not waste it by choosing a manager who cannot generate a special response from players, fans and media alike.
Rob, England

It has to be Big Sam. He is tough and won't be taken for a fool. Look what he did to Bolton this season, you have to pick him.
Aram Alaaldin, England

I think Martin O'Neill is the man for the Job. I am a Rangers man, but looked at what he achieved at Celtic with largely mediocre players, Henrik Larsson excepted. Who else is there? None of the other candidates have the know-how or the knowledge or the experience to do what needs to be done.
Bobby Pollock, Scotland

It has to be Alan Curbishley. He is the man for the job, has everything England need.
Scott , England

It has to be Phil Scolari. He took two different teams with different playing styles to two major tournament finals. One won and one narrowly lost. How many other managers can do that?
Hitesh, UK

He is cool, calm and collected, he speaks English, he has not get any skeletons in his cupboard and he is a perfect gentleman. He has got loads of European experience having won the Champions League with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich and yet no one seems to be mentioning him. He is the obvious choice and if we go for a "Brit", I think we will be missing a wonderful opportunity. It has to be Ottmar Hitzfeld!
Royston Hodges, Germany

You all have it wrong! I understand that Peter Taylor of Hull City has a good chance. What do you think?
