dunlopp9987 Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Well Burnley I think are gonna be fine. What a job by Sean Dyche, they looked dead to rights. Obviously still a lot of football to play but they look like they're going to end up safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 I think they need to keep him. They have a good run of games against other teams that leak goals. It looks like they created chances today. Unless there is a manager around that can build upon how Bielsa's teams play, I think anyone coming in and trying to change that style will cause as many problems as they solve.

Fuck me The situation may have changed since then but I hope that's what happens. It'll be quite the shock to the players' system if that's the direction they go in - I don't think there are enough games left for them to be able to completely change their way of thinking and playing.

Hafnia Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Talksport are running the story that it’s a disgrace he’s been sacked. im 50/50, they are in freefall and may likely get relegated regardless with injuries they have. If they keep him they will probably go back up if relegated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo 2.0 Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 13 hours ago, MikeO said: Great decision bringing on Arrizabalaga for the shoot-out Chelsea For obvious reasons I didn't want Liverpool to win but after getting near none of the 11 penalties against him, I turned to the wife and said I hoped Kepa would balloon his penalty, just for the sheer hilarity of it all. You just couldn't write it, fantastic stuff . For what it's worth, Mendy was hands down Chelsea's MOTM yesterday, so it makes the decision to replace him all the more questionable IMO, despite it working in the Club World Cup and being done in other sides (Netherlands in the World Cup comes to mind) I just don't get it - in the moment you could see it wouldn't work.

I thought that Marsch came across very well in his initial interview, but time will tell how he adapts to managing in the Premier League and stepping into the shoes of someone who was (and still is) adored in the city. I think that the stigma surrounding an American coach in England will be a massive hurdle for him too, a bit like when Bob Bradley signed for Swansea and got ripped to shreds for calling a penalty a "PK". There's already comparisons to Ted Lasso knocking about, and it'll only increase unless he can get points on the board and silence his critics.

MikeO Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 Quite enjoying seeing West Brom implode; they were right in contention for jumping straight back into the PL in December but have taken six points from their last twelve games. Not sure why I dislike them so much but likely subconscious 1968 scars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Times - subscription required) Ajax boss Erik ten Hag, who has been linked with becoming Manchester United manager, has been having English lessons in preparation of a possible move to the Premier League this From BBC site this morning He's apparently on his way out if they fail to win the Champions League, so it wouldn't surprise me if he suddenly ends up at Manchester United. Not that I think he (or anyone else for that matter) would do well there as they're an absolute circus at board level and have been ever since the Glazers bought them out. Ten Haag would be the best appointment IMO but it wouldn't surprise me if they went for Ancelotti, or Pochettino who they've admired for a while.
