He's been sacked from Bayern... someone send a pigeon to Germany with a contract strapped to its feet

Just seen the video from the sun website of Ben Stokes looking after himself when a couple of muppets try it on with a bottle. If he gets chucked out of Cricket we should go for him in the Jan transfer window as a midfield enforcer. Just because he's in the public eye doesn't mean he should be lambasted by the media. I'm sure if someone came at the majority on here with a bottle etc they would want to protect and react to protect themselves...? What's he supposed to do? Just stand there and let the yobs twat him over the sweed and do shag all?

Lanzini out until after the next international break no doubt argentina will want to fly him half way round the world again to prove we are not telling porkies...and now for whatever reason out comes 2/3 stories about us looking to buy a couple of midfielders in january lol shame nobody thought about that in the summer oh thats right they thought about it and now its turned into dildogate...what a club!

Reckon we will have a strong team out tonight and I noticed that there was a a few youth players that did not play against Liverpool last night in the under 23's. Think Adriane will play Byram Albert Masawack who, Noble, Fernandes Arnie, Then I'd like to see Holland Quina And this new player from Sweden Seed Havershave dont know how you spell some of these names as for the formation I have not got a clue- lets hope Billic has this time

Heard it being said about Everton that the balance of the team just isn't right. Koeman trying to squeeze too many same same players into one formation and the result is players being stuck in position they just aren't effective in. I think we have the same problem and it all stems from poor thinking recruitment wise. When you splash big on ayew, arnautovic, hernandez then you think as a manager, you really need to be playing them. the problem is where do you play them when you already have antonio, lanzini, carroll and sakho? Bilic needs to find a formation (in fact he should have had this in mind long before signing the players). for me the only way to go looks like a basic 4-4-2. flat back 4 and antonio wide right, lanzini OR Arnautovic wide left, obiang and kouyate OR Noble in the middle and carroll and hernandez up front with sakho on the bench. Squeezing Hernandez into a front 3 and pushing him wide left is nonsense. better off choosing between him and carroll for the central role and taking one out. if he wants a front 3 then he has to play arnautovic or lanzini wide left, antonio or ayew wide right and carroll or hernandez central. why not pick carroll for 1 in 3 games to start, hernandez on the bench coming on last 20 mins or so and then 2 out of 3 games start hernandez with carroll coming off the bench? surely you need to play to players strengths not just force them into the side for the sake of playing your best players?

Can't conceal the fact that I hope that this is the last time he's given a management role. The way the media have tried to make this bloke into a National treasure is ridiculous.
Normally he runs out when the money does but he's been beaten to the punch this time.
Goodbye and good bloody riddance " 'Arry boy", and regards to your dog/accountant.

Did not see the game but from what i heard on the radio and seen posted on here i had the best view...but once again i see slav playing people out of position...collins injured so zab put in back 3 antonio put at w/b i gather and chicarito wide left again FFS he is a STRIKER and a bloody good one at that...and then we have carroll which like i said makes us so one dimensional and PREDICTABLE....commentator on the radio was saying this and also how chicarito is being wasted played wide....square pegs round holes again...

Is anyone getting annoyed about life's little or indeed big cons? What ones irk you? We all heard of the Nigerian prince scam and hardly a week goes by when someone emails me telling me how luck I am to have won $thousands if only I tell them ....... Anyway the one that irks me at the moment is CAR TAX! It's bad enough that it isn't spent on our roads but to add insult to injury it's not even transferable and then we have to pay for car repairs for hitting pot holes! It's just a total con. URG!

So its confirmed, Woy is back. Its an interesting one this. You appoint a new manager, listen to his philosophy and ideas, give him the go ahead to make the changes style wise, give him the pre season, the summer and then get rid of him after 4 league games. For me you can't compare this to Bilic as with Bilic, like it or not he had won 3 games in 17 and the poor start simply sent alarm bells clanging that nothing had changed. Jury is still out on Bilic imo. But the de boer sacking is pretty ridiculous. Why appoint him in the first place if you don't expect it to take time to change from the allardyce set up to the ajax? de boer didnt help himself i agree but it was the wrong appointment at the wrong club imo. now they have Roy? Really? He's been basking in the millions he stole from pretending to do the england job and his ideas are so outdated they make allardyce look like the new tactical guru in town. palace will probably be better, they can't be any worse and it will be 4-4-2 I'm guessing, direct stuff. nothing wrong with that. but where is the forward thinking? the man is 96 years old. Talk about losing the dressing room, he will forget where it is. It does keep the prem league circus interesting i guess, at least it wasnt us sacking bilic and now sitting looking at a corpse in the pre match interview. Palace have mucked this one up big time.
