That's really concerning, Klopp hasn't left the building and leaks to support their own ends are starting already.

I'd have last nights performance playing in the back ground when he's negotiating a new contract. It was shameful.

Gonna take some spread sheet to explain that performance.

Sell him to shit first touch FC.

Clattenburg I assumed

Offer me the prospect of winning the league if Spurs get a result against Arsenal and I'm snapping the hand off you.

Dolly also wrote a song the she gave away free of charge to one of her friends that fell on hard times. Can't remember who it was or what song but it was another classic that made the chap a fortune.

It's not meant to be funny, I'd be well up for rolling the dice on De Zerbi but equally I could see that happening. Brentford come for the nil nil, if we want to wait for them to break their shape we'll be a long time waiting.

I could envisage a situation where Virgil stands on the ball like Dunk does and nobody engages him at all. He's literally standing there breaking PL possession records.

Could they get themselves 10 points clear of relegation and then hit the administration button?

777 will make more of a return on that £200m than they ever will if they buy the club. As long as Everton can pay back the monthly installments that is.

Watching a documentary on Chelsea in the 80s, Ken Bates installed electric fences at Stamford Bridge in 1985. Fucking hell.

I really wish Jurgen would just lie sometimes, say nothing today and tomorrow just say he's ill. Announcing a 2 week injury just spreads gloom.

Cole Palmer is an interesting player, like a better, less whingey Bruno Fernandes. I don't think Chelsea will miss him tonight, he's not built for the job required. He's a player that's found his level, like a James Maddison. Go to man for a club that will entertain but ultimately fail and the weeks he does nothing will be blamed on the other 10. Not for me Clive, doesn't work hard enough.

Szoboszlai, Jota, Endo, these are lads that appeared on a Monday evening and signed on a Tuesday. Absolutely no reason to suspect the manager appointment will be any different. Everything will be silent until its not, panicking over people we don't want makes no sense. We're getting a worse manager than the one we have, that's just a fact we all have to get accustomed too.

He's never reffed a Luton game, I think it's fairly safe to say he's listed as a Luton fan.

I didn't, he's behind Howe, just ahead of Orange Tindell.

It was offside but they didn't spend 4 minutes looking at 8 different angles to see if may have skimmed Bamfords arm. Swings and round abouts, give me mistakes like that in exchange for instant celebrating.

I'd have Rodgers, Moyes, Solskjaer, Mourinho or Usworth before Eddie Howe.

Great game on now, Leeds 3-2 up away to Middlesbrough. Reminds me of the PL pre-Pep before he sterilised it.

Frank seems like a good egg and the gig probably requires that trait above any other. The club has it currently stands doesn't need a radical overhaul, its needs continued stability. The squad is built, it doesn't require some tactical genius that is a clown or fraud like Rodgers, equally someone that falls out with everyone is no use. It's Hughes and Edwards job to establish if the football he plays his based on resources or his natural inclination.

If we want De Zerbi then tell him the interview is on Thursday evening at 8pm on all our tellies.

I think Arsenal need to drop points before City do. I can see a situation where City drop points and then Arsenal win out.

Delighted with my decision to invest zero minutes of my time on Amorin.

That's a statement that will always be true, not sure of its relevance here though. With your constant GOT references I can only assume you think these calls are insane. I was on the same page until very recently. Incidentally the decision that sent me over the edge was the one Dave references in Pod and its from months back, a goal not disallowed for City against Fulham, very similar to Wolves last week, Mo away to Burnely and countless others, main difference being this one was allowed stand. That's just not a goal anymore, the one time out of 100 it slips through and it's Man City and Michael Oliver again. Michael Oliver and his crew, since his trip to referee Sharjah and Al-Ain has been appointed and directly influenced the outcome the 3 biggest away games Man City have. 1) As VAR, directs ref to to the screen for a penalty for a grab by a Man Utd player on Rodri. Technically a foul but we're in 10 penalties a game terrority here. Happy to be corrected on this if you can point out other times dragging as been pulled up by VAR, particularly interested in occasions when Oliver was reffing the game and had his extra eyes point out an error. 2) Doesn't send off Kovacic away to Arsenal. Both tackles could be perceived as red, as yellows they are indisputable so a red card. 3) Doku kicks Mac Allister in the chest, no penalty given. 4) His mate Darren England say fuck off play on at Spurs. It's not a good look when you come back from Sharjah versus Al-Ain and started giving City decisions like that. I've repeated the names of those teams so people can familiarise themselves with them. They're not famous clubs, they don't appear to be attempting to grow the league so the idea that the top ref is needed over there is a tad suspicious in my view.
