On a serious note, looks like Wenger to Bayern could be (back) on. Was talk earlier they didn't want him, now a number of media outlets are claiming he's set for talks. Will actually be kinda interesting to see how he does if he gets the gig, things went stale at the goons but no denying he's a great manager.
Did it go stale or did he just refuse to develop.
 
Arsenal boss Unai Emery admits he "does not know" if former captain Granit Xhaka will play for the club again.

(BBC Football website headline)


Hell, Dick Emery doesn't even know how much he himself has at the club!
 
Interesting though.If Liverpool lose they will be letting in the Fulham Broadway Shed......and that's bad!
 
Leicester are playing how we should be playing.

Kudos to Brenda, doing great work there.

Their squad has a lovely balance to it. Just the right mix of experience and youth. It hurts me watching them playing this well, knowing how we were endlessly linked to Maddison, Pereira and Tielemans yet passed up/missed the opportunity to sign them. And Soyuncu is living proof that if your scouting team know their arses from the elbows, you can still pick up an unpolished gem without breaking the bank. We got Aurier without breaking the bank.
 
Leicester's first XI is very, very good.
I'm not sure they could cope with three or four absences, but as long as the centre backs, Maddison, Tielemans and Vardy stay fit, they look top 4 certainties.

The saddest thing though is that on paper we still easily have a better side/ squad than them with FB positions aside and yet somehow they’re playing phenomenal and we look like a shower of ****.

Rodgers really does deserve a lot of credit for how they play.
