    No idea about ashworth. What is he? The director of football at brighton?

    I thought it was potter who implemented the style? I know before that hughton was playing awful football with brighton and that potter had a pretty good record abroad and was doing well with the swans. Cant say i know the ins and outs of brighton though

    Tbf if he's not chatting up the club secretary or buffing his teeth, he's exceeding expectations. The bar isn't high here.

    I don't see why that wasn't a penalty for Everton.

    It was, the strikers foot hit the ball with the outside of his boot which explains the change in direction (he was trying to round the keeper) then the keeper pushed his foot knocking him off balance. Penalty nailed on.

    <ok>

    Even IF the goalie had touched the ball, it didn't roll away, it hardly moves away, so the player could've still easily got on to it and put it away.

    Don't misunderstand me ... I'll be surprised if he moves anywhere soon ... but Unired or Citeh (the latter being the more attractive short term propsition) would certainly spark his interest ... but football is a moving picture and we would certainly be an attractive proposition if our managerial position became vacant ... personally I could see Gerrard or Lampard being interested and I'd be happy giving the opportunity to either tbh <cheers>

    It actually puts me off Rodgers that Fosse is talking like we're desperate to sign him <laugh>

    Like we're trying to sign Pep ffs. Gimme a break.

    Keep him mate, he's all yours.

    Maybe not in your eyes but he's been able to extract maximum success from the players he has had ... something that has not happened at your club since SAF retired ...

    I don't want Pep either. But you talking like Rodgers is in that league is delusion beyond belief.

    I would not argue against any of that post.
    The thing is he has never had to cope with any "top players" (prima donna's) , a thing which finds many managers out especially if they have a few to cope with

    As I've said ... I doubt the press reports that link him to the United job... and give more credence to the rumours of him being potentially lined up as Pep's replacement at Citeh ... but you need a reality check ... who the **** do you think will want the poisoned chalice of succeeding Ole as manager of Manchester's second club? ... now about that delusion ... <laugh>
