I like that you ask the question but I think I am the wrong person.

Despite sitting bottom of the table, Nîmes have done okay in attack recently with four goals in their last four league games – seven in their last five if you include their 3-0 Coupe de la Ligue win over Lens.

Whyte's worldCraig Whyte's book got massive publicity when it came out and it seems that it was a bit of a bestseller among Celtic fans, if not Rangers fans. It's clear that the former Ibrox chairman is still struggling in the self-awareness department given some of the things that he has written. It seemed that everyone I came into contact with tried to shaft me," he wrote. It's safe to say that not many will accept Whyte's self-portrayal as an innocent fall guy in Rangers' implosion.

For 10 years, Ancelotti presided over the two most successful Italian clubs, Juventus and AC Milan. He won the Champions League twice but walked away with only one league title to his name. As if to solidify his reputation as a man who could not guarantee domestic success, Ancelotti suffered the ignominy of relinquishing the French top-flight crown to Montpellier in his first (half) season at PSG. When the Italian took over from Antoine Kombouare in 2011, PSG were top of Ligue 1 but were soon overtaken by their more consistent rivals and finished second.

While Dyche might look and sound like a managerial throw-back and he may share Bassett's loyalty to 4-4-2, he has long since made fools of those who would bracket him as the kind of old-school long-ball merchant who would write his starting XI on the back of fag packet.

Bournemouth were a bit unlucky not to get anything at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday, and gave us a really good game in the second half, so this is a tough one to call - but I reckon Saints will edge it.
