I've not been around for some time here. Changed work and my schedule is all over the place.
Happy Gunner at the moment. It's so fun watching them.

I see that Klopp is whining about Man city's purchasing power and how he is unable to compete. The man is the biggest moaner in the world, he ought to be used for Porn soundtracks.

Liverpool just paid 100m for Nunez and they have the most expensive Defender and Goalkeeper in the world.

What was Liverpool's excuse for not competing in 2016 and a twopenny team won the prem title?

Are Leicester players even taking a shower after games HIF?

No hustle at all, looks like Sunday league football…

Rodgers lost the dressing room. Time for a change imo.

Big Match. But that Nunez guy had two chances to put it away for Pool and on a 3 on 1, he forced a shot that got blocked rather than pass it to the far side to Salah.

Then on a breakaway, he puts up a tepid shot.

Really heated match. Also heated for Leeds-Arsenal but the Gunners escape with the 3 points.

Liverpool gives Man CIty its first L, despite Darwin Nunez being a complete clown. Wow, I havent seen such a joke of the player in quite a while,

I couldn't believe Nunez didn't lay that off. Was wondering if I was going to be completely entertained by two 0-0 matches, but Liverpool pulled it out. And I cheered. I felt so dirty and ashamed.

The work on the training ground seems to be improving Man Yoos organisation, but we just can't consistently pass well. Like the ball is just off some guys stride, or a little too bar behind him. And Fred lol, dude **** kills me. Gets himself into great positions and then can't pass, shoot or dribble. But he's there! In an awesome spot! And then... useless

Why is Arsenal-City postponed midweek?

I know they had their previous date postponed because the Queen passed the week before but every other team is playing?

Oh Arsenal has some Europa league match?

Not long now till Gerrard’s gone. Apparently our owners are meeting with potential new managers, I did mention a couple months back that they like Poch. However, the same source who mentioned Poch said we didn’t convince him enough even though the media are only reporting it now.

I think we’ll be after Emery/Thomas Frank although the latter is likely to sign a new contract.

I’m happy the owners are showing ambition even though it’s a tall order to convince Poch/Tuchel/Emery.

Will be an interesting couple of weeks.

Hat off to Leeds. They were very strong.
If we're going to win games like that....

We need more depth though, fatigue is beginning to show.

Utter dross. Worst I've seen Spurs play in years. Could have been a battering if Lloris wasn't in good form.

Good from United but that was truly woeful.

Bissouma so far has been disappointing whenever I’ve watched him, also what’s happening with Spence? Spence should be starting at RB/RWB has he not been that great?

Spence has barely seen the pitch besides 5-10 minute cameos so I can't really remark on what he's done. I liked him when he was on loan at Forest though.

Gerrard is only 42. He played for Pool as recently as 2015.

Do fired managers get to work as assistants for other managers or he just has to wait and hope to get another manager job somewhere?

They do whatever they want. I'd imagine his ego means he'll only take the job of top man but more likely he'll move into media. I'm sure with his payoff he need never work again.
