Glenn Hoddle has predicted which job will take after his time as head coach comes to an end.

Joe Cole once Potter has settled on a team – with Chelsea facing champions Manchester City and top four rivals Liverpool in January following the winter break for the World Cup in Qatar.
Hoddle feels Potter deserves a lot of credit for his impressive start in west London and has now tipped him to one day replace Gareth Southgate as England boss.
