    The Managerial Merry-go-round

    Liverpool started that rebuild last summer with a new midfield. That worked quite well in patches. Next it'll be Van Dijk and Salah - probably Salah first. Then maybe Robertson and Allisson in the next round. I also wonder whether these and other players will consider this is the right time to...

    Tottenham in pole position to sign Thomas Waddingham

    Very hard to judge whether he is good or just went through a short run of form. Brisbane are such a dull side on the field and chaotic club off it. He might be good, but equally it might be a case of casting the net a bit wider after players like Irankunda showed there is young talent in the...

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    He'd be at the bottom of my list, personally.. But that's only because I sort alphabetically.

    What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

    What a waste of time, trying to be one of the best teams in the entire country and enter a competition to play against the best teams in Europe. Pointless.

    Bundesliga 23/24

    Chaotic end to the half between Union and Leverkusen. I think they got the right outcome, maybe, but it could easily have been another red for Union.

    Jermain Defoe stakes claim to be Sunderland's next manager

    Sunderland have had 16 managers since Roy Keane became the last to reach 100 games in charge. In that time they have also had 11 caretaker managers. Keane left in 2008.

    Premier League 2023/2024

    Decisions like the Gordon penalty (2nd one) are a product of the VAR era. Same as Southampton's equaliser under Conte. Defender doesn't foul the attacker, at all, but the video shows 'contact' and it looks like in clearing the ball he's impeded the attacker. Even though the attacker has no...

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Liverpool thread

    I can see the first point being true to an extent. Not that Leverkusen crash and struggle next season but Bayern don't and this year's title becomes a one off. Leverkusen with Champions League and higher expectations, Bayern course correct with a better coach and probably spending on the...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    He's right, as usual. This weekend's game is 3.30am for me. It requires a different kind of commitment to see your team when you live overseas and an effort if you have young kids or work all hours during the week. Having the chance to travel from Australia or wherever (assume the question was...

    Why were Liverpool given an uncontested drop ball after that VAR check? really odd. The Forest defender should have just cleared though....

    Player Watch Player Watch: Guglielmo Vicario

    I don't understand why these have all of a sudden stopped being given as fouls. Luton vs Burnley was a block off. Dias for City and now Harrison for Everton vs Spurs. Player takes a position and then moves into the path of an opponent when the ball is not within playing distance of either...

    I can see Salah in Saudi. Huge money for both club and player, and a chance to go play in a region where you're a megastar.
