Gerrard, Zidane and Pochettino in the running if Toon sack Howe, claim Betfair

Steven Gerrard is favourite for the top managerial position at Newcastle. Eddie Howe is under pressure at the moment.

Howe was appointed Newcastle's head coach in November. He has had a difficult start to life at the club, with just six points from 27 games. Betfair created a 'Next Manager' market with Villa's Gerrard the frontrunner. Graham Potter, Zinedine Zidane and Brendan Rodgers also feature on the list. Unai Emery, Erik Ten Had, Frank Lampard and Michael Carrick are also on it.
