Oh no, what a shame, Colchester sacked the ****er I went to school with...

 

WTAF is all the Barcode compassion for Tonali coming from? Pleading he's a victim of his own 'addiction'! Looks to me like an influential and wealthy club protecting their investment.

If he's guilty, which by this seeming admission he appears to be, then he's broken the rules on a serious level and should be punished.

Didn't see this outpouring of grief and support for Ivan Toney. Mind you, I don't recall him hiding behind an addiction defence either.

 

Real "Wearing t-shirts in support of a racist teammate" energy here...

 

Something else for football commentators to pretend they don't understand, then?

 

Villa should squeeze both Utd and Chelsea out of the top six on current evidence

 

Ajax lost again on the weekend and are now 17th, one place off the bottom.
Lyon sit at the foot of Ligue 1 with 3 draws and 6 losses from 9 games.

The outstanding big team doing **** has to be Schalke, though.
They currently have 7 points from 10 games and are 16th out of 18 teams.
Why's that worse than the others? They're in the 2nd tier.

 

Maxence Caqueret at a discount next summer, you say...?

 

You can stop hitting him bow : https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67200766

 

I am going to be so pissed off if Ajax hire the ****er I went to school with...

 

They’ve sacked Steijn.
It’s the end of an error.

 

No, it was by mutual consent. Honest.
They told him to **** off and he did.

They're being linked with 3 ex-Premier League managers, which seems unlikely.
Ralph "occasional 9-0 loss" Hassenhuttl's stock has risen since Southampton's demise in his absence.
Jesse Marsch isn't going to be sponsored by an energy drink, so that's probably not a goer.

The last one's intriguing, though: Graham Potter.
Had an impressive and unorthodox rise, culminating with his Brighton success.
Then joined Chelsea and flopped horribly, though the following coaches have also done so.
Could Ajax be just the right sort of team for him to re-establish himself and even win something?

 

Potters got proven continental success (admittedly at a lower level in Scandinavia) on his résumé, so would be a good call. Still think there is a good coach in there and would largely ignore his blip with the Xhavs.

 

Would he be able to master the Dutch accent a la Super Schteve McClaren, though?
Did win the Eredivisie with Twente though, to be fair. Genuinely impressive achievement.

 

RIP. Wonder what it means for Everton?

 

RIP indeed
Poured his heart and soul and plenty of his own £££ into the Toffees and the British theatre!
