I think there are several options that could be promising and would prefer one of the younger crop but sussing out who is best requires a lot of research and due diligence, as well as a sense of whether they are the right fit as a person.
Not sure there is any more a dearth of candidates than there has been in recent years. Who would we rather have had that's now ensconced at another club? Arteta hadn't managed before joining Arsenal, Xabi had limited low level experience, the big hitters were already in their positions.
If it was a couple of years ago Ten Hag and Graham Potter would likely have been high on the list. Maybe that's a blessing and we end up with the right bald Dutch man?
