Anyone want to tell me whats going on at Arsenal? Its like this every year. United is beginning to explode, and anyone who knows LvGs teams knows they usually do around this time of the year. Chelsea and Arsenal will lose to United. I feel sorry for Arsenal for not winning these games. wtf

If he doesn't get the United job this summer he will have no choice but to go and experience the full-time job at another club and if he proves himself he'll be back at some point.
Celtic actually wouldn't be a bad first job.
Oh im not stating that it wouldn't be a good move for him and we'll (Celtic) probably be in the market for a new manager in the summer. Its just crazy how these rumours blow up on Twitter over nothing and two betting companies have jumped on it. Crazier things have happened before I guess.
How is that possible? His value can't have gone up. Seems shady as fuck.
Give him time, he just only took the job 3 months or so ago. He will get things right. I'm more worried about Wenger's mental state. His team are a walking disappoint. They should be on top of the league. Credit to Leicester
value is just what someone is willing to pay
the silly money wasn't in chinese football six months ago.
They offered 10m for Adrian Ramos who is either sitting on the bench at Dortmund or is playing absolutely horrible.
Is any journalist investigating this? Reminds me of Colombia in 80s/90s when drug lords bought up football clubs which they then used for money laundering... Silly money, yes, but that's more realistically reflected in wages rather than inflated transfer fees
It's probably just a coincidence this all started as the Chinese economy began to tank.
Like a power walker.
No one would pay that much for him though, silly money or not. He's fourth choice, Atlético would give him away, let alone making a tidy profit.

Word on the grapevine is that Alex Teixeira has also been snapped up by a Chinese club.

Crazy money for someone who essentially room temperature garbage.

Crazy money I imagine.
Look at Ramires I've always rated him and seems to have a great work rate, now fair enough he'd dropped down the pecking order lately. But if he wanted to play elsewhere I bet China wasn't the only option so he must be on a monster wage.

Just caught up on the games I missed last night. That Vardy goal, oh my! After the Man City display against Sunderland the game on Saturday should be really good, just a pity I wont get to watch it.

That was one of United's better performances under van Gaal. I'd like to think it was all United, but I've heard a bunch of people talk about how shit and knackered this Stoke side has been in recent weeks. There were a lot of positives like actually seeing movement and pace in the side and Juan Mata was dominant. Wayne turning back the clock, and Borthwick Jackson could be the best option at LB for the remainder of the season. I wonder if he has the versatility to play across the line, might be worth trying him at CB next year when Shaw returns.

Will be interesting to see where it stands compared to the U.S. league in a few years time. Which model will prove to be more successful? The American commmies', or the capitalist Chinese pig-dogs'?
What's the difference between their leagues?

MLS has a low wage cap, delegated players, a draft (where the weakest teams get the top picks), and aims for overall financial stability. Aim is to grow the league slowly after the near-death of American soccerball in the past.
China is throwing a ridiculous amount of money at anything. The richest teams with the most interested owners will likely rise to the top and attract the best players.
But both are growing leagues in countries with massive GDPs, with only limited success in the sport to date.
Shakhtar likely to accept Jiangsu Suning €50m offer for Alex Teixeira, he's still undecided about a move, says 'GE
https://twitter.com/Cynegeticus/status/694964519731355649
If Alex Teixeira will accept the Jiangsu's offer, he will earn 10m€ per year, the 10th joint highest paid player!

10m a year wow
You finally noticed
Still had to laugh about him getting injured in the first training session.
Something is wrong in Munich.
Let's just say AC Milan has been ruining a few careers the last decade. Seriously this guy was overrated from the beginning.

Bigs them up to the press, gives them dog's abuse from the sideline
Apparently he chucked out a load of shite as soon as he got the chance at Dortmund, need the same here.
How has Lukaku played? I am thinking of taking him out my dream team.
If you need a player, or even an entire team, to break a bad run of form, there's nothing like playing Newcastle. Bet Pardew wishes Palace had us next.
