Video Interview - Pep Guardiola says he wants to coach in England.
I told you guys, he's not going to Bayern.

Yeah I got a good laugh when I read that earlier. He said a few beauts regarding our squad strength as well. Sometimes I think Arsene watches a different Arsenal team to the rest of the world.

When you really think about it, their famous academy hasn't produced a lot of top quality for a long time
Wilshere - fair enough
Chamberlain - most of the work done before he joined
Walcott - same
Fabregas - same
Chesney - not all that
Frimpong - meh
I mean, they have a decent output, but the way its talked about you'd expect more. I'd say they're better at putting the finishing touches on players than they are at truly developing them.
(And yes, I know that Sterling was a rising star well before we bought him)

pahaha!! I knew it would get noticed! In all honesty, I was hoping Salazar would notice it first. He loves his destiny talk.

Seems a bit disrespectful to the manager who won your first trophy for 40 years...

:lol you say the same thing here. And the 89. And the fact that it was posted 1 minute before you posted here.
How wouldn't it get noticed. Haha
Not at all. I do think Pep is coming to City though. Come on, every other week GAF are saying Mancini is shit and City should do better. Mancini will be a club legend, regardless of how he parts company.
I'd personally quite like to see him move upstairs, maybe turf Marwood out of the academy set up. But I think Mancini enjoys being a manager so I can't see that happening.
Destiny and Deserve.
Indispensable in any mug's vocabulary.
Mancini a "club legend" ?
Good grief.
You're so ice cold.
Of course he is! He's up there with Colin Bell, Mike Summerbee, Joe Mercer and Malcolm Allison. The later being two real legends.
The style.
Wenger gets mixed up with guiding young careers and getting the best out of them and actually starting the development. Wenger is fantastic at getting the maximum out of his players but he isn't responsible for developing them at a beginner level.
Wenger transform Theirry Henry into the most lethal striker in the league, possibly the world. He coached Cesc into becoming an offensive juggernaut capable of ripping open any defence (unfortunately Barca have ruined that side of his game) and he is the reason RVP has blossomed into the gem that he is among many many more. If Alex Song stayed with us 2 more years instead of getting ahead of himself he would have blossomed into an outstanding player as well but he cut it short and is now heading downward.
If Walcott stays he could blossom under Wenger as that is what Wenger does but Southampton started Walcott. Not Wenger.
Szczesny never came through Arsenal's youth system. We was purchased at 16 like the others. I think Sporting Lisbon (not 100% sure, not Arsenal though) were the ones responsible for Szcz. He is a fantastic talent though, he will go a long way.

Mike Summerbee is the most bitter man to ever appear on TV

Place yerself on a spectrum
Oscar--Marin--Benayoun---Fletcher------Kagawa----Nolan----Rooney/Walters----Akinfenwa
Maybe so, but he was right about one thing.
Not to forget team 2 have ME. I am the Ibra of this team or Mata depending on which position is assigned to me. Taking mediocre players around me to great heights.

Sky Italia reported yesterday evening that David Beckham offered himself to Milan recently, but he got rejected. I love David, I really do, he's great and everything, but there must be a limit even for him.
Also, Galliani said this:

You strike me more as the Cattermole type.
Holy shit, third team. Kingellesar, just make sure that even if every cunt wants to be CAM, it's just distributed to each position. I think there was 28 on each of the first two teams all nicely distributed
Unless team 3 just wanna leave themselves with no defenders and watch as Arnie leaps like a salmon above everyone, knocks it to Viva and I who tiki taka our way round the opposing midfield, knock it onto Pappe the Indian Messi © who dribbles into the box and lays it back to Yurt, who misses.

He's halfway there after selling your best playes and giving Pirlo to a title rival!
I've actually developed a new weight measurement that I think should be adopted by Football-GAF.
For example, after a bit of over-indulgence during Christmas, I currently weigh 0.46 Michael Johnsons (MJs).

We're only missing a stadium and some more young players, then we'll be like the Italian Arsenal. So good.
City & Liverpool will lay the foundations for other managers to follow.
Pics of kawawa and rio suggest he's on to something.

Team one got this.
I'll accept that Rio is a berk, but Shinji's just obligingly putting on some clothes he's been given.
Meanwhile, Suso needs 24-7 babysitting.
Best laugh ever. Loved that movie.
Apparently City are going after Suarez again.

I'm only more convinced he will go to Bayern.
Only ManUnited is a believable option, but since SAF wants to continue it's not going to happen. Chelsea seems unlikely to me, and I don't see him at City at all.
Of course, as a Bayern fan, I am absolutely objective. ;-)
On my 3rd coffee, decided to read the newspaper.
On the frontpage it says : ''Sylvie and Rafael van der Vaart are going to give their relationship another chance''
Really, the last two weeks have been full with non-news about these two separating, and now it's frontpage news that they're going to try again?
