Bournemouth's vacant manager's job has led to a conversation between a former manager and a new one.

ScottParker, who was sacked after just four matches this season, has emerged as a viable candidate to take over permanently.

Since August, Gary O'Neil has been doing the job.

The Cherries have lost four top-flight games in a row and are now just a point above the drop zone.

A glamour choice for a club about to enter into a new era will be if O'Neil gets the job.

Even though the club were on a downward spiral when he was fired, the Argentine is still revered by the fans.

In their first season back in the top flight, he oversaw their ninth place finish.

Six of the previous seven seasons saw Leeds finish in the middle of the table.

In addition to managing France, Italy, Spain and Argentina, he had also been in charge of Chile for four years.

During the World Cup break, Bournemouth are expected to make a decision.
