Robbie Savage, Danny Murphy, and other people who troll good footballers because they got nutmegged eight times a game in training and had to eat with Neil Mellor Souness and Keane are increasingly turning into Statler and Waldorf, but at least they can say that they have the background to justify it

the modern equivalent of the pools is putting on a £2 acca every weekend which is kind of like the lottery in that on one hand it's objectively pissing money down the drain, even compared to gambling on a single match, but it's also not something that's going to end with you joining the french foreign legion so if it gives you £2 worth of fun then que sera sera FullLeatherJacket fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Nov 14, 2021 |

gafferchat: I would be up for Zidane, definitely, and not just because I can post the loving song everywhere. He's definitely a gamble in some respects, but so is anyone other than the same eight Italians and Dutchmen who rotate through every job in Europe. And yeah, I'd genuinely like to see Graham Potter get a shot at a big job, although he probably needs something in between. I'd personally be happy with him, but I doubt anyone who thinks it's cool and good to text their opinions to Manish on the BBC web feed would agree with us signing someone who's never won a trophy if you rule out trophies where you get a builders hat as a prize. Rodgers should be a no-go, I've said before that I think he's a good manager for getting a group of decentish players to go out and run abaht a bit in a way that nobody really notices when you lose 3-0 at home to Chelsea as long as you're consistently getting results elsewhere (see: Moyes, David), but he came unstuck at Liverpool and I doubt it would be a better fit the second time around. I would also take Big Steve Bruce until the end of the season because it will upset Newcastle fans, and that's 90% of what I'm looking for from a football weekend at this point

He was originally only going to be a caretaker after Mourinho left, and then he won something like twelve games on the bounce and it was impossible at that point to not give him a permanent contract How much of that was his tactical nous that people have now sussed out, and how much of that was Luke Shaw deciding that he wanted to win a Ballon d'Or powered by pure spite like he's in a Van Damme movie, I guess we'll have to wait for the books

Yeah, if just for the fact that Solskjaer tried to make United play more like they did in the Ferguson years, even if they were inconsistent in doing it, he'll likely be remembered more fondly than managers who spent a billion pounds on 30-somethings to have 30% possession against Sunderland. I would hope that like Lampard at Chelsea, he's left most of the pieces in place for someone to come in and build on, rather than yet another manager who wants to rebuild the entire club in his image and then leaves after two years.

gafferumours: - Zinedine Zidane does not want to be manager and is waiting for the France job to open up - Mauricio Pochettino does want to be manager to the extent that he may immediately resign from a job where he's managing Messi and Neymar in order to manage Harry Maguire - Steve Bruce, who definitely retired last month because the Newcastle job was too demanding, would apparently take the United job if it was offered, and thinks he'd do well at it this is where I need someone to stop me and explain, Father Dougal-style, the difference between things that I want to happen because they are objectively good ideas and things that I want to happen because they are quite funny

tbh I think Woodward was a shorthand for "not having a clear operating structure or long-term transfer strategy", rather than Suit Man Bad I don't actually give a poo poo whether he stays or goes as long as he sticks to signing important potato deals rather than trying to bring in Garrincha to play at left-back

Pogba is almost certainly gone at the end of the year, if not before. It's somewhat annoying, as I'm pretty sure his style will absolutely suit Spanish football and he'll look like a golden god spraying 60-yard passes around against Grenada, but he gets crowded out of PL games far too often to justify an annual contract argument with Raiola.

the sex ghost posted:Feel like Sanchez or maybe Torres are right in the middle of the poo poo signing Venn diagram where the three sectors are cost, expectations and performance ahead of signings like Carroll where he cost a lot, but nobody expected anything of him and he ended up just sort of chugging along see, now what you've done there is you've created a model where signing a genuinely good player who ends up not adapting to the team/manager/country is considered an objectively worse decision than spending the majority of the money you got for Fernando Torres on a big lad from Newcastle who had scored fourteen top-flight goals in his entire career to that point and that's wrong, that is

now I'm remembering the time that Charlie Adam managed to score from the halfway line, and MOTD celebrated this by showing a compilation of Charlie Adam repeatedly giving away possession by wildly lumping it from 50 yards multiple times a season, most of which had Carragher in shot visibly calling him a prick
