      Mourinho in the summer to replace Poch for one last hurrah? I can’t lie, I’d love to see it 😁. When he’s not in destructive mode, he’s still box office entertainment.

        Liverpool so clinical. How bad are Chelsea though? Poch has to be in real trouble surely. He’s making Graham Potter look like a genius.

          Yes Sean, Lacey is left footed. Actually a scouser whose brothers are big Liverpool fans but he grew up a Utd fan. Looks very promising

            Yeah I’d sell Rashford Sean. Had enough of him now. Excellent last season and utter rubbish this season. You can’t rely on him at all. Maybe he needs a new challenge too. I still fancy him to go to PSG when Mbappe leaves and I think he’ll tear it up over there.

            Yeah some great prospects coming through. Shea Lacey and Amir Ibragimov are two names to remember. They are going to be stars I think

              Utd’s U18 team beat Liverpool last night to maintain a 100% record. 14 wins out of 14 is very impressive. This batch of youngsters looks like one of the best at the club for a long time.

                Brighton’s form a bit concerning for them. They are prone to a hammering now and again, as good as they’ve generally been under De Zerbi. Still, I fully expect him to be in the running for all the top jobs this summer. Not only have they lost their two best players in the summer but they’ve also had a lot of injuries. Despite all that, they’re still 7th which is still excellent for them.

                Didn’t expect that result at Villa Park. How have Newcastle hammered Villa twice considering both sides other results this season? It doesn’t make sense but that’s football for you. Olise developing into a real player for Palace. He’s going to be sought after this summer.

                  Your views are missed on here Gj. Hope you’re well. Nil, really no need for that rubbish.

                    I suspect the same re Emery Mikus. I’ve often thought the same of Poch though when he was touted for the big jobs.

                      I get all that Mikus. I just think it’s a big gamble to give him his first shot at a really big club based off a decent start. In comparison to what Ange is doing, Alonso is doing the unthinkable in his first season by looking like he’ll actually not only win a trophy but break what is an unrivalled spell of dominance in Europe at Bayern. He’s arguably got as much big team experience as Ange already and will probably get a big, notable trophy before Ange and Ange has almost 20 years more in the game.

                        Joking aside, my agenda is not about Spurs. Given the choice, I’d sooner them or Villa win the league this season out of any of the contenders, if you can call them that.

                        My agenda is with the media and the modern fan with this phenomenon of going completely overboard about managers after a few months. “Never mind trophies, how much possession does his team have?! How many passes per game do they have?”

                            Well they won the league Mav without Kane and will probably not win it this season for the first time in 12 seasons 😄. So, fantastic he is, he doesn’t seem to have made them a better team.

                            The thing is, I’ve nothing at all against Ange. I think he’s doing a decent job. I just find the media hype around him completely over the top.

                              Kane is brilliant but let’s not forget he’s gone to Bayern who have arguably become a worse side despite his brilliance. Was there an over reliance on him which we’re now seeing repeated under a Bayern side who couldn’t stop winning until he joined?

                                World’s gone mad 😁. Spurs have 4 points more than they had at this time last season. He’s doing a good job but it’s definitely a modern phenomenon that I’ll never quite understand to label people almost as messiahs for doing a decent job. Celtic were awful in the CL under him. A record worst ever CL campaign under him when he was there. These days it seems like trophies are almost an after thought. If your team plays a high line and has more passes than the other team, you’ve made it in management 😄

                                  They’re doing well Mav but brilliant? They’re 5th. They’re still very much riding on the wave of a new manager bounce. It’s far far too early to say he’s going to be the excellent manager the media would have us believe.

                                    I think Ange is another who falls into the category of not having the big club experience Mikus (sorry Chucky). Even including Spurs as a big club, he’s had half a season and is 5th,about what you’d expect from Spurs. He’s almost 60. As a Utd fan, I’d be delighted if Ange was the one chosen, quite frankly 😁. I think he’s done a decent half a season but I’ve never seen such an over reaction in the media to a good half season.

                                      I say put it to a public vote. My first vote goes to Stevie G and second to Jose.

                                        I did wonder that Chucky. There’s going to be some competition for De Zerbi and Alonso this summer with potentially Barca, Liverpool, Utd, Madrid and Bayern jobs all up for grabs if all the big leagues were to end in the way they currently look like doing. It certainly could make owners/directors a bit more hasty in their decision making to get there first.

                                          Echoing Chucky here. Absolutely no change in my level of love for Liverpool 😄

                                          Big news though. What Alonso is doing at Leverkusen and him not ruling out the possibility today worries me slightly as I think he could do a great job at Liverpool. Similarly, I’d be gutted if De Zerbi goes there because I think he’s top of the list if Ten Hag goes.

                                            I can’t help but think Potter is waiting around for the call from Ineos in the event Ten Hag doesn’t sort this season out. He’s supposed to be pally with them from previous meetings about one of their other clubs. I hope I’m wrong though as I don’t think Potter is particularly great.

                                            I think where Newcastle are as a club, he’d be a much better fit for them. Their signings so far suggest to me that Mourinho/Conte would not be the type of managers they’d be after. They have so far resisted the urge to bring in ageing superstars at the end of their careers for a bit of star quality, instead focusing on progressive signings for the future. A Conte/Mourinho appointment would be a shift away from that IMO.
