Hafnia Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 onto Klinsmann - what a player though... unbelievable striker. The diving did my head in but he was some striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaiah Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Don't know if he's been mentioned yet (haven't read all the thread) but Villas Boas is hating life in Russia and the Zenit fans haven't taken to him at all. Russian media reckon he's on his way out this summer. Would you take him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Dunc - thanks for posting that. Linked to mourinho, moyes, de boer, and koeman. 3 of the 4 make sense, moyes doesn't. Isaiah - he has done well with zenit no doubt but that league isn't great. Also he didn't do well with Chelsea or Spurs here. Im not a big fan of his.

markjazzbassist Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Let's be honest the dead wood needs let go Osman Hibbert pienaar Gibson kone and I'm sure a new manager would sell some players as well. Could be a massive overhaul this summer but it's needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 That PED comes across as a bellend on that. The Arsenal fan knows his stuff and is basically laughing at him. Mourinho to Everton? Come on..... Everton squad better than Chelsea's squad? Fuck me mate put the glue down. Chach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 I've got no idea who the next guy could be but Mourinho? No chance. His salary would be too much, he spends money like it grows on trees, doesn't develop youth...and we just aren't the right club for him. I'll have to start looking around because I have no idea who could do it and/or is available. rubecula 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makis Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Does he actually usually buy the players? In Real they don't allow the manager to sign players but what's the structure at Chelsea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makis Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Do you really see Mourinho giving full control to someone else over player transfers? Frankly, I have no idea. RM doesn't seem to give managers that power, for instance Pellegrini complained he had no say over transfers and that the team was all wrong. It was a band with 11 guitar players and no drummers, or something to that effect. Just checked and according to an article in the Guardian Mourinho didn't decide who Chelsea sign: http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2015/jul/03/premier-league-transfers-who-decides-club-buys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makis Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Of course and so he should in any club. Think that has been a major issue with the neighbours in the past, signing players that don't really fit the system the manager is using. But that's different to our model where the manager basically has the final say on any transfers as long as the financial constraints are met. During Moyes's time there were a few exceptions (Rooney and Arteta sold to appease the banks) but apart from that manager decides. But fear not: http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/661753/Jose-Mourinho-Manchester-United-Gonzalo-Higuain-PSG-Premier-League-Louis-Van-Gaal-News Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibdane Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 (edited) If he stays then next season we need to be challenging for CL irrespective of the squad now. He'll have investment, and he needs to show improvement immediately next season. I can't take another season of dross.

It's a nothing story. I'm feeling the same way. As somebody who's only spent time in London, I'm unfamiliar with longer train rides in England. Wouldn't a random fan generally not have access to the kinds of cars that these uber-rich public figures are sitting in? Or, is there a greater chance of mixture than I as an American would expect? Furthermore, why would they be using a train? I realize it is significantly more common, but I figure Moshiri as a private jet type.

Liverpool/London on train is much easier than faffing around at airports. Only two different levels of travel, first class and standard, nothing at all to stop those in standard wandering through first. Years ago you used to be able to do an upgrade once you were on the train for just £3, wasn't advertised much but I did it all the time, probably doesn't exist any more but certainly free movement still does. UK national distances are minute compared to the US (though I'm sure I don't need to tell you that). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny to me how England is very class conscious yet there seems to be less separation between the well-to-do than in the US, where we're all temporarily embarrassed millionaires. I'm assuming the reasons for this are mostly geographic (as you were suggesting) and demographic in England, rather than reflective of significantly better socioeconomic integration.

Can someone translate for a common skint Northerner? I'm only here to discuss Everton and I get that wrong most the time!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
