Former Chelsea interim boss Guus Hiddink wants to talk to the FA about the possibility of taking the England job and the footballing authorities are happy to give him a hearing, according to The Times.
Consequently, Twitter reacted to the Dutchman linked to the job:
I learn that Guus Hiddink is interested in managing the English national team.

Please, please, please FA, do not swap one old fart – Roy Hodgson – for another old fart – Guus Hiddink. Ye Gods, he’s even older!

@CharIieColkett hiddink as 2nd choice just for the fact of form over reputation and use of youth. But yeah Shearer all day for me.

Guus Hiddink to be next English manager and Mikel to be next England international

@Fabregassists hiddink is way too negative for this squad. We need a young manager with fresh ideas

Hiddink would be good for England. Would be my 2nd choice. Shearer first.

Hiddink for a year then Wenger would be a good move from the FA

Guus Hiddink shortening in odds to be the next England manager. Would be suitable for interim but a long term contract would be a bad move

Hiddink wants the England job? After the job he did with Holland I think he’s past it
