I think he is a nice lad, to be honest.
At least you don't hear him moan every week. I will take Howe in front of any english manager at the moment.

Yes, save agent Ole. We've lost so many deep agents in the last few years

In a way I am hoping we win just 1-0 sat. And the media put a valiant ole spin on it. If we spank them he will be gone, a bitter sweet event.

On reflection......
Ah fuck it lets spank em.

Another one bites the dust. Silva’s services are no longer required at Everton

Don't know who they think they can now get? Reckon Moyes will go back on a temporary basis

Surely not. They’d be better getting BFS back

Some amount of sacking so far, must be a PL record season for sacking and a few to go yet.

Must also be an indictment of the player recruitment in the league. How are these managers supposed to succeed when their bosses are buying shit players or not buying any at all?

Everton: Pickford? No quality CM and let Gueye go. No good attacking options
Tottenham: Even though the squad is good they didnt refresh it for like 3 windows and let some of their best players run down their contracts causing unrest
Arsenal: All I need to say about them is David Luiz, Mustafi, and Sokratis as your CBs
West Ham: splashing loads of money but on all of the "hype players" that never end up working out
Newcastle: what a joke
United: AWB and Maguire were good buys but their midfield and attack are woeful. Fred and team-cancer Alexis? Maybe scout your own players for your own system instead of just signing players we're interested in.

I actually think Fred is quality. He was deffo a Pep and a City player, but he made a really bad choice at a team and in a system that does not suits him.

He only just got promoted to Pep's assistant last season I believe. Before that it was the other guy that went to NYC. Teams are just desperate for a young manager that has links with the team.

It would be completely stupid for Arteta to move.

He should look at Bob Paisley
as a reference. Build on from the inside.

The Financial muscle is with City , why screw up the next ten years ?

For what ?

He'd be a fool to change

He'll have been giving a warning for his "oh just give Liverpool the title now" comment when Palace had that goal ruled out so he may be sacked soon.
