    ... by the looks of it.

    Since I was told to lump money on Brendan Rodgers, being the next PL manager to go they've been dropping like flies <doh>

    Lost his number 2 = lost his coaching expertise.

    Lampard appoints a proper coach = you start to see an improvement.

    All well and good having reputation, or the media on your side. Most of what gets results is done Monday to Friday on the training pitch.

    They weren't that bad, they had an attempt on goal ...

    ... to be honest it wasn't on target but they tried bless 'em.

    The two most irritating accents in one place ...

    ... something had to give..

    The same lad who told me Rodgers was a gonner said Gerrard was about to go for certain. I put money on Rodgers, lost it and ignored him this time <doh>

    Villa are awful mind. Mings is gash and the strikers forgotten where the goal is.

    Not surprised to wake up to this news, you could see it a mile off in their performance against Fulham last night

    On radio 5 live it was saying how ex star players never get a fair crack of the whip from the media. I think it is the other way round personally, they are built up and up, only the fans on the terraces are even handed with them in my opinion.

    Interesting to see his old number 2 being chased by Wolves isnt it.

    Aye, cause they have a good playing career they start near the top and are quickly jumped up a few rungs on the ladder with mediocre results. Lampard being the prime example.

    Villa and Gerrard I can understand a little bit more as he had a lot of success in Scotland. But it's Scotland and I would expect that to give him a job in the Championship at best!
