    Money and the opportunity to work with Theo Walcott are hard to turn down.

    Money, yeah; but Arsenal aren't going to pay a new manager two hundred grand a week when it pains them to pay their better players that.

    Long enough that Arsenal bores on my twitter are seething about it 'not having made an impact'.

    Unless you meant Juve, in which case not long.

    Yeah Juventus. I didn't know about them moving from the Delle Alpi.

They're just slightly more prolific versions of Kevin Phillips.
    Higuain helps you beat the rubbish teams, and Dybala gets the goals against the good sides. It's not the ideal system, but it seems to hold up.

    I missed a few bits of that, but every time I tuned in Mandzukic seemed to be playing in a different position. The team sheet seems to suggest he was some sort of left winger or, I dunno, leftish attacking midfielder.

    In my world he's always been a slow, tall powerstriker. But reading up on it now a bit on Wiki (for what that's worth...) it seems he's actually a bit of a Duracell bunny, apparently.

    Still it's weird to see him in midfield.

    Aye, proper workmen like. Seems to suit them quite well with Cuadrado/Alves tearing up the other side.

    I remember a few people over the summer writing that that BOTTLER would take Juventus to the next level. If he was capable of doing that, he would still be at Madrid.

    I would argue that we needed to be sure that we win the league in a canter, Bayern style, so we could focus on the big prize. He's not going to win us the CL, but he'll ensure we keep making it into the competition.

    It also weakened Napoli quite a bit, which makes winning the league easier. The Bayern strategy of beating the opposition by signing their best players on them.

    It was basically a sure thing. He'd been doing exactly the job we needed him to do (being prolific against rubbish to ensure that we don't get jammy 0-0 draws against Pescara), but for our nearest rival.

    There's not many sure-thing investments in football. Would you front half the money for a 50/50 shot at failure?

    True. In hindsight, they would have just spent the forty million on Edinson Cavani in 2012, so they were probably exorcising that as well.

    I think Verratti was out of favour for a bit. That would have been a nice purchase. Still, buyer's remorse.

    I can't phone her mate she hasn't got a phone. Plus the match isn't on YouTube it's on BT Sport Europe.

    You give your daughter YOUR phone so she get's enthralled by YouTube.
    You then proceed to watch the game on BT Sport or wherever you so fancy.

    Is he there as some sort of elaborate Paddy Power stunt? Also, it should really be 'Ten Spanish Galleons' if you're over there, with Sir Francis Drake of England sending them down.

    It's looking more and more like that by the day; he's brought in Kieran Richardson and Nigel Reo-Coker on trial.
