    Arsenals fixtures are weird. First in the first round and last in the second round.

    I think we are going to drop points against Leicester and mourinho will say something ridiculous to deflect.

    Massive game really considering the last defeat.

    I think we're getting 0 points from 6 and going down.

    Hopefully Swansea won't have been able to shuffle Tony Pulis and his two banks of five in before the game on Boxing Day (I know they're not interested, but that's what they always say, oi oi etc).

    Why are people so obsessed with Ryan Giggs getting the Swansea job when it would be the most brainless appointment imaginable.

    Because he's famous and used to play for Manchester United.

    Famous, yes, but his Welshness is more of a motivator for these particular rumours than the Unitedness.

    Generally speaking the press will wet their pants harder when some of the Lolden Age of English football are looking at management jobs. Terry, Gerrard, Lampard.... I dunno if any of the United lot from that time would do anything other than get laughed out of the room unless they were being interviewed by the Class of '92. Imagine a serious club taking on Rooney as a manager.

    If club legends want to manage the first team then they are better off going the Steven Gerrard route and hoping that the opportunity to binman their way into permanent manager status presents itself (as it did at Barcelona and Madrid). It might not be the case for Liverpool, but probably Chelsea, and certainly United, will never hire somebody from a small [domestic] team ever again, so unless Ryan Giggs won the league with Swansea (or John Terry with Brentford) he would still be a million miles away from the job he craves. With that in mind, any high-profile ex-player would be much better off taking the five million quid a year on offer to talk shit on BT/Sky than actually having to work for a living.

    The last manager we hired from domestic was Glenn Hoddle.

    The best way to experience a game is to read a 300 word match report in the paper the day after. 'Norwegian import Leonhardsen was unable to change the scoreline with a rasping 25-yard drive, turned over the bar by the fingertips of Segers. Ron Atkinson was pleased with the draw, however, saying afterwards: 'It's a learning curve for the lads'.'

    Better still, actually, just seeing the result buried in tiny print on the full page of all results, while you are bored on a Sunday morning waiting for your dad to come back from the dump, and then screw up your eyes to read a really badly written league table with loads of dots and no position numbers on it.

    Leeds..............21-14-3-4-38-12-45
    Aston Villa......21-11-6-4-34-14-39
    etc.

    The Vauxhall Conference. Enfield nil, Stevenage Borough nil. Woking one, Northwich Victoria one. Ten score draws, one no score draw. Next on Grandstand: rugby, and it's Bath versus Orrell.

    When did Ron Atkinson ever manage Leonhardsen or Segers?

    Amstrad? Isn't that immigrant machinery? I write my posts out on a typewriter, fax them to my stockbroker, and he dictates them to the lady at the telephone exchange.

    This bit of Ryan Giggs' interview is a bit weird. How does he think 'Pep' and Zinedine Zidane got their starts?

    The first sign of a bullshitter is when they use phrases like 'I know what a Manchester United player looks like'.

    I saw van Gaal linked with the Swansea job. Well I say that, I assume it was him, because there was a clickbait headline which I didn't click onto saying 'Former Man Utd boss linked with Swansea'. I assume it must be Louis, as Ron Atkinson is still in prison, Tommy Docherty's getting on a bit, and whilst I'm sure Fergie is after a new challenge it would be a curious move for him.

    Yeah, but five million each sounds a bit optimistic. Gabriel Jesus already had a thirty million release clause three years ago, and given that Kylian Mbappe effectively replaced Anthony Martial at Monaco, I reckon they would have conned a similar fee out of any club coming in for him. With that in mind, the club passing over on them doesn't seem all that stupid.

    I would assume pretty much all of the Top Clubs have a pretty decent idea about all the best 16-or-so-year-olds around in Europe and all have scouted them once or twice.

    Whatever compels them to sign some and not others, I've no idea.

    Streaming is absolutely fucking shite these days, isn't it? There's only ever about two streams on reddit for games I want to see these days and they probably only work for about ten minutes each. FFS.

    The Acestream links on reddit are normally fine, just download the player and paste the link in.

    Yeah, that was fucking useless. Just as I was thinking recently that Mignolet had put his stupidity behind him.
