If he is thinking of moving on maybe he has heard there is someone else on the way in ?

I certainly hope the board do not appoint Vierra as manager without any proper managerial experience.

Look at how many world class players from the rags tried their hand unsuccessfully at PL management.

Just because we briefly had a world class player, who has joined the back room staff does not guarantee he will be able to be successful in management.

Pep Guardiola's experience before taking over Barca was running their reserve team in the 4th tier of Spanish football
Pep demonstrated real achievements by getting promotions with the reserve team. Vierra has had mixed results. No comparison IMO.

Who should we go for then? Should it be Alex Fergusson seeing as he's one of the few available and proved he can guarantee success?

Garry Monk is doing pretty well at Swansea for a 35 year old, should he be told to do one?
IMO Simeone is possibly the best manager out there, although perhaps a little outspoken for our image?
Klopp although going through a difficult time since losing his best players to BM, is a fantastic manager.
Martinez has proved his worth.

So how do you know Patrick wouldn't have done the same if our EDS team were playing in the lower leagues?

The fact is they cannot be compared in that respect.

If Pellegrini was to go, then I would have no problems with Patrick and Jason Wilcox taking over.

There is no substitute for managerial experience. I think we could go from the frying pan to the fire if we took on your proposal. The rags did a similar thing when they replaced Moyes with Giggs at the end of last season. There is a world of difference between being a popular and well respected member of the back room staff and managing in the toughest league in the world. The appointment of our next manager should be on his proven ability and talent, not because we actually had a world class player who played for our club and has joined our coaching team.

We had proven ability with Mancini, and because he was too confrontational he was moved on.

We have Pellegrini, who you could say was unproven before he joined us.

Pep was unproven when Txixi and Ferrano knocked back Mourinho and gave him the Barca job.

Until someone is given an opportunity you cannot tell if he will succeed or fail.

My first choices would be Pep or Klopp, but I wouldn't say no to Patrick.

Their reserve team had Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets, Andres Iniesta and Victor Valdes in it.
 
Just to correct you Damo, Guardiola only had one season in charge of their B team and the likes of Busquets, Iniesta, and Messi were already established when Guardola took charge at first their B team and then the seniors.
