Has he been linked with Everton? Sounds like Silva MkII :bandit:

Didn't Everton make Koeman the 3rd highest paid manager in order to land him? I don't think they're looking to get someone on the cheap.

Falling agonisingly short of City by a single point in 2018-19, the Reds failed to convert a Christmas Day advantage of nine points last year.

We were 4 points ahead by Christmas Day - we increased it to 7 by New Year. It was never more than that after an equal number of games played.
I know I go on about the poor standards of sports journalism, but I have no time for people who are so bad at the profession they are paid for.

BBC used to be the gold standard. It is (or was) the go to for accurate information for many people around the world. I can't see it being taken seriously anymore with such poor quality reporting.

I think they're still decent enough across the board, it's their sports department that is as bad as everyone else's.
I wrote this last night on a different thread:

Sports hackery has always been the embarrassing spotty cousin of serious journalism but the internet has allowed it to plumb new depths.
In ye olden days when newspaper space was limited, at least it was only the best (least worst) stuff that made it to publication.
Now, a host of mediocre key-bashers looking to earn a crust churn out tedious non-stories at a prodigious rate.
Our Dribs sees fit to regale us with a generous supply of these on a frequent basis.

I think there has been a decline across the board, the sports reporting being particularly poor. Individual reports getting players, places, scores etc wrong is plain lazy.

Indeed.
In the article I quoted it's not even as though the journo had a momentary brainfart - they even made up a graph illustrating it.
Obviously got his information from an unreliable source and never bothered to check it.

I think people on here take more care than journalists do knowing they'll get jumped on for wrong information <laugh>
