strong centreback

Only way it will happen is if we get the golden egg of a youth player coming up and making it through.

not to mention if conte is our next manager and he guides italy to the later stages he wont start himself till later then ideally possible.

Ok has anybody actually googled pop bitch? its like the daily mash, have a look at the sub title on the google search the clue is in the word that begins with s, would of thought the name would give it away that its not something to take seriously Message board and free weekly newsletter focusing on satirical celebrity gossip. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popbitch

Didn't think about that, would make sense, if that were to happen would be highly amusing to read the excuses as to why Mourinho never went Utd despite them saying the opposite for 6 months :)

Paper talk I know but mirror reporting that man Utd will pass up the opportunity to get Mourinho and will stick with van gaal with giggs succeeding him. can't say I'm surprised if true, and I've thought that the media noise about Utd/Mourinho was coming from Joses camp for a while now. Not sure where he will go though if Utd isn't an option, surely abroad unless a sequence of events take him to maybe Arsenal? Don't see another option in England for him.

indeed we need imo a squad of 23 players that you dont have that much/any of a drop off in quality when you interchange, 2 for every out field position and 3 keepers, and thats assuming you dont have known injury prone players making up those numbers.

Should go on one of their customary 3 match wobbles after losing to a 'big' team, its the arsenal way you know get them selves out of contention then go on a late flat track charge to cover it up

by all accounts from people that should know he is very tactically flexible and is more likely to find a shape to suit the players at present then put square pegs in round holes which is certainly a positive.

being linked with radja nainggolan as the first signing of conte if he comes, dont know much about him but isn't he a more defensive minded than attacking minded midfielder, id guess that zaffo will be able to give a better profile of the guy to be fair as he follows italian footy regularly.

fair comment, but id say the reported 50k a week he makes should be enough restitution for him to bite his tongue imho, I just can't bring myself to pity multimillionaire footballers, think it by all means but dont say it publicly, hold your tongue and move on in the summer if your that unhappy about it.

saw that on twitter yesterday and seen nothing to suggest its fake, its the tweet preceding the car photo

certainly backs up the stereotype of the modern footballers who couldnt care less as long as they are paid, if a chelsea player said that in public id want the club to put him on individual training for rest of season and then sell him at earliest opportunity, disgrace and shows the class of the man

there's that but this one I had in mind which came before the car one.

Yep and lescott topped it all off on Twitter for the villa fans!
