Kobbie Magoo's FA cup goal has now been upgraded to "One of greatest goals in FA Cup history" according to MEN's Samuel Luckhurst on SSN.

Bullshit, maybe "one of the worst pieces of non-defending in FA Cup history".

Don't forget the Kiwis. NZ beat the Ineos GB crew in the Americas Cup last week.

Sponsored and therefore partly funded By UAE

Replacing someone who was a good mgr in the dutch league with a mgr who was average in the dutch league cos he played for you over a decage ago, the merry go round keeps spinning, and what will happen is theyll beat leicester cos horseface is different, theyll draw with chelski cos he hasnt had time with the players yet, theyll beat paok cos hes turning it around and theyll clammer to give it him for the romanticism of it and the idiots will make a bad decision AGAIN.

Horseface has 6 games before the tarquins & 5 of them are winnable, with Chelsea being the other & they'll probably get Taylor as ref. Although it's a huge if, if he wins all 6 then the hordes will be proclaiming he's better than Pep & the circle starts again

Rags seem to think Ruben Amorim is coming in. Anyone think it’s true?

Not only can’t they get money for any of that dross, but who is going to “downgrade” for pennies on their current contract dollar?

There are quite a few players there who have peaked as far as club, league and pay, so why go backwards from here?

“I’m willing to fight for my place. This is the best club in the world!”

You can already hear it!

Didn't Maguire want £10m & they offered him £2m when West Ham wanted to sign him.

This is what happens when you sign players by paying them way over what any other club will pay in wages & transfer fees. It glorious seeing the entitled, arrogant, not in my life time scum implode

According to Talkshite van Nistelroy won the Dutch League twice as a manager. Are they stretching the facts there? I thought he was an assistant??

 

[yeah whatever !!]

i think they've turned a corner.

Turn 3 more and they're back where they started.

Sounds like Rashford from here, but I can't be sure :)

How much did Sancho cost them? Probably still paying a chunk of his salary too (£200k per week)

If Chelsea do ok this year I believe there's an obligation to buy (for a whole £20million), if they finish mid-table he'll be back in the swamp "fighting for his place".

Lovely stuff :)
