Vermaelen hasn't even been that good this season. He's no good at LB and he's made plenty of gaffes when played in the middle recently. I suppose his goals make up for that but Koscielny has been much more consistent than him this season.

Chris Hughton linked to the WBA job? The fuck is going on? The Midlands appears to be the sloppy seconds and thirds of the footballing world.

I'll be so annoyed if RDM doesn't keep the Chelsea job. I think he can achieve something amazing with the club, as if his achievements so far haven't been stunning enough. Couple of smart acquisitions and sales and Chelsea could well be competing for the title again next season.

I was thinking about it yesterday but I came to the conclusion that he's better off at Reading since he knows the club and players already.

He'd do a fine job at WBA too though.

Yeah, I really want to see him manage in the Premier League again. Such a likeable guy.

Kyoufu, holy shit at you blitzing the shame list for this topic. :p

It's a dangerous game though. Most people at the end of last season said the same about Kenny, although not at the same level obviously.

No offence to Liverpool but they made some really bad purchases and have much more work to be done on the squad still (incoming, outgoing). That's a bit of a different project but yes, I understand your point.

Yeah, last nigts game was quite good, except for some moents in the second half. Especially the last 10 min was quite tense and it was just funny to see us all screaming shoot to Nasri while he wanted to dance around the penalty area.

We are playing against Stoke tonight. Hate them! hopefully no gets injured...

and hopefully we smash them 4-0

Er oops, did I say Reading?

I meant Birmingham. They can pull it off in the play-offs. Believe.

If not then yeah, he'd probably eye a move to WBA. Would be great to see him back in the PL.

Damn. The TDKR trailer is fine. :eek:

And a little off-topic. I left the save file I started yesterday running in holiday mode and here's 3 pics of interest. It's 2026.

Pogba has apparently agreed to join Juventus, as has Verratti. For the later, it seems like he's happy to sit behind Pirlo for the next little while which, to be fair, is what he needs as Pirlo's heir. Soak it up, learn from the master, and then step into the role. With Buoy and Gabriel Appelt, Giandonato, Sorensen, Laili, Branescu.... Marotta looks like he has signed the next generation of Serie A stars. Amazing work,

The last man standing in the way of #mcfc's £100m standard-setting training complex, Liaqat Ali, has backed down. [Manchester Evening News]

GOOD! City can now go ahead with plans to create the best youth facilities English football has ever seen now that has been taken care of.

The poor City store :( Damn United vandal! I'm surprised they didn't actually just break in and steal the three 27" iMacs they have at the front of the shop.

Seriously, though. I remember one of my World Soccer magazine mentioned that Hodgson was the right man for England and should have been in charge years ago, 'specially with the CV he has. Better later than never, I suppose.

Good stuff! Although I've always been a "Noel guy," I am still a huge fan of Liam's and would have flipped my shit in the same situation.

Little Aguero is going to be the next Messi with those genes!

It seems like every article I read makes Tevez's absence 1 month shorter. I've now read a few which referred to it as 3 months. :lol
