Ruud van Nistelrooy returning to Manchester United as an assistant is weird until you realise he will replace Erik ten Hag during The Caretaker Season.
In a sign that they should perhaps lower their sights, Burnley might be about to lose managers to Bayern Munich andwithin a month or so. Van Nistelrooy held talks over replacing Vincent Kompany at Turf Moor but all signs point to the Dutchman returning as part of Erik ten Hag’s new contract.
Once Palace go top of the Premier League by the end of September, with Golden Boot-winner Jean-Philippe Mateta inspiring swaggering victories over Brentford, West Ham, Chelsea, Leicester, Manchester United and Everton, Bayern Munich will come calling again after Vincent Kompany signs James Trafford and guides them to the bottom of the Bundesliga and an early DFB-Pokal exit to some amateur side in the sixth tier.
But once Postecoglou resigns after being told he cannot keep playing Emerson Royal at centre-half, Jedinak will have to step in. That then gives ample time for Spurs to fire another caretaker manager and let The Prophecy come to pass: Ryan Mason as interim Spurs boss for half a dozen games every other April.
