The algorithm knows me.

I've heard he's hungry.

It's a risk, but that's the market we're in. There isn't a standout candidate available. Seems we're trying to find the new Mainz Klopp as we couldn't get the new Dortmund (Alonso) one. I guess it comes down to what do you prioritise, a proven winner or a good fit for the club, because right now someone with both isn't out there.

Hmm, maybe he can wear a hat.

If he gets the job, he has a couple of months to grow a beard or I'm booing him.

Don't like Slot, he looks like the fella who rapped on Barbie Girl.

Valachi. He blew the lid off the whole thing. Gravano was just one of life's survivors. Once he realised it was all bullshit he fucked everyone over, lived outside witness protection, then goes back to running dope, taking the fall for his kid. Gotti was foolish for flapping his gums too much.

Poor Things Certainly different. I preferred the early black-and-white part, very '20s German Expressionism. Stone's great, but if anything the more she spoke the more I kept thinking of Winslet's line in Extras - "You're guaranteed to get an Oscar if you play a mental." Thought Ruffalo stole the scenes the pair were in. The whole atmosphere works well though, especially the score. Only real quibble would be the ending. That seemed out of character for Bella. 7.5/10

Gary O'Neill? I'd rather give the job to Sven. Let the man live his dream properly before he goes.

This is like a depressing game of Guess Who? Is it someone I already hate?

Beard > height. That's scientific fact.

Despite some bad losses, I still feel like he passes the eye test, so to speak. Gets his team playing positively, and the stats tend to back that up. If he grew a proper beard I reckon people would accept him.

It'll be De Zerbi, won't it?

All fair points. Atlee was bold, but he also had a population that accepted the continuation of rationing while we restructured, and oversaw immigration to help rebuild Britain. We've got a population that voted for Brexit and sees immigration as the enemy.

That's a fair point. But, playing Devil's Advocate, do you think Brown would've opened the purse strings in the same way if he was inheriting this bin fire of a post-Brexit economic landscape? Labour got pretty lucky in '97.

The Hodor of eggs there, holding back the bean army.

Fancy us to get a result away from home more than at home right now. Reckon a win on the road with a handful of bouncing travelling fans could be the shot in the arm some of these players need.

ZZ? This story might have legs.

Fuck him. Hope he loses every game from here on and his beard goes all patchy.

I think we're all approaching the bargaining phase of Klopp leaving.

I like that line-up. Gakpo looked pretty sharp against Palace, and can help in midfield. Diaz helps cover the wing, and Salah is still Salah. No room for Nunez to start, and he'd probably work better from the bench right now. We were too slow in midfield in the first game, and Endo was a big part of that, unfortunately. This three need to move the ball quicker, and be aware of when they're being closed down. Having Trent as an out-ball drifting between the CBs could be huge. If Atalanta commit to man-to-man again the long ball will be on from Trent. 0-2 heartbreak incoming.

I didn't watch the Barca comeback, so I'll not be watching this in the hope that'll help.

Finally, a bit of culture. Now, do you condemn Hitler?

The Kurgan from Highlander deserves a mention. Clancy Brown played a good baddie.
