    I was looking at the fixtures yesterday and it's all set up for him to lose the next five and then beat City (maybe get a result at Chelsea) to save his job until the summer.

    I don't think we have a relentless ten wins on the trot type run in us, so we'll need the other two to be shittish to win the league.

    Lolololol.

    We miss Mane, Mo and Keita for Palace and Bees and that's it. It's happening again and it's beautiful.

    Just watched the end of Florence-Naples, looks like the bald dome of Luciano Spalletti is shining its way to a very strong tilt at the title with the latter. I hadn't heard of him for, what, a decade?

    Scotland and England could do with sharing full backs. England give Scotland a couple of right backs and we give them a left back. Aaron Hickey ripping up Serie A at 19 and Josh Doig will be in the English PL within a year

    We’re going to have 4 quality left backs making up a back four at this rate

    If it helps, Tierney looks half the player he did last year.

    Luke Shaw has dropped right off (back) so we could swap him for somebody.

    Korean dog eating has declined rapidly since United started that song, so be careful what you wish for. When they had to stop singing about Romelu Lukaku having a massive cock his early form went to shit and never recovered.

    It seems weird that the Lukaku cock chant was only about 4 years ago. If it happened now there would be stadium bans for some of Manchester's top working class wits.

    Is the BBC website a lot more global than I think? It seems weird that the top story is ‘Bayern, PSG, Ajax, Barca all lost’ than Man City 2-2 Liverpool.

    NFL.com does this too and it's a pain in the hole. You see the proper site for a split second before it redirects to some dumbed down 'UK' version that's 90% an ad for Gamepass.

    I was wondering the other day: "What if there was some kind of competition or tournament to determine Europe's best national side?" and all of a sudden here one is. UEFA trailblazers in all things.

    When the international break comes about I very briefly miss being in league one where life carried on as normal, but having a look at the fixtures for Saturday most of them are postponed because of callups. International football's gone to the dogs

    He's not the most technically brilliant or prolific but everyone absolutely fell in love with him a little bit all the same and there was a real sadness about him being let go. He's great playing alongside someone and works ridiculously hard and while he won't score a shitload of goals he did have a habit of scoring belters. If he hasn't tried an acrobatic volley at least once, he hasn't played

    The more I see everyone going on about that Rodri tackle the more I wonder why on earth Fabinho didn't just hit it first time.

    That was a great game between Liverpool and City yesterday. One of the best goals (Salah's) I've seen in a long time. On today's Totally Football pod they were wondering if it was one of the Premier League era's best.

    Also seen mention of Salah now being one of the Premier League greats? Maybe depends on how highly you value longevity, but this is his 5th season and it's only really the very rare players who excel for longer than that (Giggs, Lampard, etc.) and he's played and scored with almost freakish consistency.

    Salah has little competition for that RW position in the league. Would probably put Ronaldo on the left? I can't think of anyone else from the natural RW position that comes close.

    Certain outlets are talking very promisingly about the takeover, with The Times saying within 24 hours. The piracy thing was a big issue, but there's still the whole 'a country can't own a football club thing,' unless they've sorted that in the meantime.

    Liquidated Super League with Bury, Wigan and Derby.

    They may need to relocate to Rochdale of something.
