Be very surprised if Ange Impostercoglu is not gone by tomorrow.
Would be a shame though, his post-match interviews after a loss are always a good laugh in how snarky he is.
Can never look the interviewer in the eyes. At least Pep does that. Basic manners, MATE.
Because the data.
Optimised sport, there's no other way, except that there is, but there isn't.

Someone at work just pointed out to me that Haaland's new contract is 115 months. Top tier trolling.
Chelsea recalling the wrong player on loan at Strasbourg sums up the horrendous regime. You have literally the best young midfielder in the league (if not best midfielder based on form this season) and you recall some American left back
What?
I was confused at first and thought you were referring to the premier league, which got me to wondering by what measure Lesley Ugochukwu could be considered the best midfielder in the league, but assume you mean Ligue Un and Andrey couldn't get a game for Nottingham Forest Santos. I suppose that's not much of a criticism anymore, mind.
He’s class. He was just the victim last year of being signed and then Forest signing 3 more midfielders on deadline day. They’re never gonna give preference to a loan player from another club.
Even Ugochukwu would do, you can’t go half a season with 3 midfielders and 1 of them being perma crocked Lavia. They have to recall somebody because they’re starting the money laundering early and signing someone from Strasbourg for 20m and loaning back but can only do that if they recall someone. The summer window will go down as an all time stinker. Failed at selling so many players (and even recalled one now) and a couple of your signings are already being touted for being sold (KDH, Viega, Tosin and Felix). They were in a decent position in the summer only needing to bring a striker in and midfielder. That went well.
If Spurs keep shitting the bed like this there's no way we'll be able to sign Solomon...even though the chances were low anyway if we get promoted.
My man in the know told me that Nduku will leave. I've called him Nduku because I can't remember his fucking name. Winger lad with a hairband who likes to cut back onto his left.
Madueke. I can remember things from 1996 in exhaustive detail, but not this.
He has Newcastle all over him and will be excellent, as is the norm.
Chelsea keep getting linked with Garnacho. This obsession with wingers is something.
Although Garnacho has the look of a disgusting fanny and I think United fans have gone off him, I always fear him when we play them, so get it done.
Villa rejecting £57m for Duran is wild.
Not as wild as West Ham thinking he'd join them.
West Ham would have got him for less than that in the summer if they had something about them. Seems to me like one of those "well we tried didn't we" moves to appease the fanbase.
Duran looks like he has the potential to be a very good striker. But, he seems to make most of his impact from the bench. Doesn't seem to be quite as good when he starts - like a modern day Tore-Andre Flo, just from what I have seen of him but I could be wrong.
Sir Marcus may not be able to find himself a new club by the looks of it. Could get a bit messy for him.
Durans an absolute nutter and just so happens to have scored 12 goals from 5xG. It'll be a terrible idea.
Surely Chelsea have better than Sanchez?
The Doc, the useless prick
With the story Ducker is running it sounds like he's realised nobody good actually wants him and he's trying to come crawling back.
I don't think he's quite the demon he's been painted as, but it'll be better for all parties for him to move on from United at this point.
Antony off on loan to Betis. United after Dorgu from Lecce. Be interesting to see if we can keep a left back going for more than a few months before some part of their lower anatomy explodes.
Rashford is not a terrible player. But he prances round the pitch like he’s putting up Messi/Ronaldo numbers. Plus he’s paid Salah money and putting up Sancho level goals and assists. No one in their right minds would take him off United’s hands with the contract he has.
It feels like he thought massive clubs would be lining up to sign him as well. His brother is his agent as well isn’t he? Have this dopey cunts learnt nothing from Harry Kane?
Garnacho to Chelsea is the ultimate Boehly era transfer. Young forward underappreciated by rivals signed for inflated price.
Hey, we bought Mason Mount off them, fair's fair
£60m for him? lol.
If Man Utd get anything upwards of £50m for Rashford, they'd surely be pleased with that. But I'm not sure what club (that can afford him) would want him when you look at his recent stats and lack of effort off the ball.
£50m lol.
If he goes it'll be on some crappy loan with option where we cover part of his wages.
We do, but 'distribution', so the useless wanker plays every week and then the club social media gives it WHAT A KEEPER for a week when he routinely tips one over the bar.
Apparently £50m is the "market value" for rashford, but considering you are basically obligated to pay 300k/week as well, shirley in practical terms he's worth a lot less? I doubt anyone sensible would want him for five mil let alone fifty.
Add Rashford to my footballing e-victories list.
Rashford's wages are like Aubameyang's at Arsenal and he'll need to leave on virtually a free to shift him. His attitude reminds me of Walcott when he tried to negotiate a better contract claiming Liverpool were in for him then they swiftly said 'err nah lad'
Rashford is very good at carrying the ball (not dribbling or beating players) and shooting, and average to crap at everything else. He would be very good for whoever plays counter-attacking shite these days, probably doing twenty-ish goals a season for them, but that isn't anybody prestigious or willing to pay three hundred grand a week. If David Moyes gets Everton going again that would be a solid move.
Duran is another Balotelli. Great talent but he's got a personality that seems hard to manage. Needs a manager like Potter, who won't give him a hard time and will make him the main man.
I see where West Ham are coming from with that. Especially after Antonio's absence. They need a presence up front.

His style would be great for Forest, but whether they'd pay those wages is another question. He needs to think about his school dinner MBE stuff and come back down to earth a little bit.
