Second game together, Donley assists Markanday.
Leyton fans got two players that are too good for League One there, they’re gonna enjoy this half of the season.

Josh Keeley didn't play for them regularly until late October. They've since kept 14 clean sheets in (I think) 21 games. Really impressive.
He won POTM too, very rare to see a keeper win that.
Yeah, they played 7 games in December and he didn't concede once. He's doing very well, by all accounts.
Though when you think about it they are complaining about their cheating being punished more severely than it should have been.
Ipswich thrashed. We may have enough points, thankfully.Rival watch update:

How much of Chelsea's early season form was down to Pochettino? 1 win in the last 8 league games and that was Wolves.
Maresca needs a quick turnaround if he's to avoid calls for his head.

He really does look like the real deal doesn't he?
If he ever fancies driving a promising career into a reinforced concrete wall, I'm sure he'll give us a call.
It feels like I’m watching Pochettino all over again. The career path is so, so similar.
Hopefully it’s so similar we’re Iraola’s next stop!
Though I don’t see it happening, I think he might (rightly) look at taking on a huge job if he maintains this form with Bournemouth for the next 6-18 months. A big, big job could come about this or next summer.
I don't think it's covered in the Laws but it is theoretically possible for one foul to be worth two separate yellow cards. This one certainly merited a card for deliberately breaking up an attack and possibly for a reckless tackle too. Or perhaps since he had no chance of playing the ball the ref judged that he deliberately kicked him in the shin so it was violent conduct.
Anyway, I think all the Laws should be applied very strictly so that they are a proper deterrent to cheating.
Chelsea job in the summer. Maresca doesn’t convince me, his in game management is nearly as bad as Ange
Bournemouth taking the piss got a room full of injured players all together watching their team mates destroy Nottm Forest

Maresca strikes me as one of those run of the mill types. He’ll do okay but never really excel.
Does make the choice to bin Poch for him look really poor though. Second season Poch probably would’ve had them challenging Arsenal and Pool, or at the least cementing a top four spot when you consider how good Chelsea were in the second half of last season. They were just beginning to learn Poch’s style and then he gets binned… crazy.

its because theres a fight between boelhy and the other shareholders of clear lake.
I think they liked poch but they have bought so many young players on 7 years contracts it meant we needed to sell to adhere to financial fairplay. Poch wanted to keep gallagher and chalobah but majority ownership wanted to sell them as they are 100% profit on the accounting sheet.
Poch essentially walked and good on him too. Its no way to manage a club
