Former Arsenal player, Paul Merson, wants Chelsea to appoint Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe as the permanent replacement for Liam Rosenior at the end of the season.
Chelsea sacked Rosenior last week and appointed Calum McFarlane as their interim head coach for the remainder of the season.
However, Merson feels Howe would be the perfect manager at Stamford Bridge, who will lead the Blues to glory next season.
“I’m a big fan of Eddie Howe. If Eddie Howe leaves Newcastle, they will be queuing up around the corner for him. He’s a top manager,” Merson told Sky Sports.
“So that tells you everything. Be careful, Newcastle. Chelsea would take him tomorrow morning, you would like to think so wouldn’t you?
“In my opinion, they’d take him all day long. We’re talking about the next England manager, 100 per cent.”
