Youā€™re angling for a job on MOTD, arenā€™t you.

With that kind of insight youā€™ll be a shoo-in.

Amorim probably the right answer for United, but would like to see Thomas Frank get a big gig in the PL

Same here. I think he has what it takes.

Long and rambling, lacking any sort of chronological discipline, but says a lot.

Sadly itā€™s mostly unsurprising. The incoherence has been evident both on the pitch and in the clubā€™s actions.

The administration of the club has to dramatically improve even if they do manage to hire a good, inspirational manager.

Amorim then @murrayjohnson. Wonder if heā€™s going to go with 3 at the back. Squad/formation incompatibility apparently put either him or Liverpool off when they were looking.

Certainly think the Portuguese league is massively underrated. There are three very competitive teams in that league that consistently do well in Europe. Certainly far better than Ligue 1 imo. Have no idea how they are included in Europeā€™s ā€˜Big Fiveā€™ over Portugal.

Itā€™ll be interesting to see what he does. I believe heā€™s worked with Ugarte before & should have no difficulty getting his ideas & wishes across particularly to the Portuguese speaking members of the squad (whether itā€™ll help in Antonyā€™s case is moot). Iā€™m just glad they didnā€™t take the easy option & appoint RvN. He may be a good manager one day but needs to learn on the job somewhere.

i was reading about the difficulties some players had making sense of what Ten Hag was asking of them. Whenever I saw him being interviewed I always imagined it must have been difficult. He wasnā€™t the best communicator.

Ten Hag looks a very easy act to follow, never really seen as credible by the senior players, he then brings in his own players and then loses authority with them just as quickly, and heā€™s looked a dead man walking for at least 9 months.

Amorim is a good coach but boy has he got his work cut out with that dressing room.

Should of kept ten hag til Monday

itā€™ll be RvN this weekend. I donā€™t think Amorim starts til Mid November after the international break.

Well thatā€™s arsenal out of the title race.
Saying that,my 10p double is on Newcastle and Bournemouth both to win.

Kerkez is apparently heavily scouted by LFC to replace Robbo.

I think his price just went up.

Liverpool now joint favourites with City on Betfair.:scream:

Letā€™s all laugh at Man City.:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
