    Oh come on, the Hackney and Leyton Football league is of higher quality.

    At least you're not denying it...

    Why would I deny it? Scottish football is pants; crusty pants with skid marks.

    I was going to say, it would be a tough one to argue the case for Scottish Football. Probably better value to go watch some pub Sumo.

    The first 1/2 hour of England v Germany women has been dreadful.

    Edit: 1 hour in and is still dreadful. I would have said pants, but you know, sensitivities and that...

    Where's City Boy when you need him? :D

    Looks like it's down to Chelsea to keep the Scousers in trophy dodging land this season.

    I’m not sure which will last longer, Chelskis run or Emery at Arsenal.

    It just shows how under rated Wenger was and how over rated that fat chap at Spurs is.

    Big Sam to Spurs? Where now for the fat Argentinian?

    Is Ole looking over his shoulder or is Roman chasing a quality manager to replace Frank before he implodes?

    He needs to go somewhere more in line with his current performance. Wolves, maybe?

    Big Sam says he's not interested.
    Gareth Southgate is in the mix?!
    Can't see Mourinho in the job, despite what the Sky journalist suggested.

    I think Pottechino could still achieve a lot more.

    He could, but he needs to go to a big club.

    I guess there's a bus headed for Tottenham now. Wonder what the Arsenal fans are thinking?

    From what I've seen, it's the combination of their most hated club and most hated manager.
    A bit like how I felt when Mourinho went to Man Utd.

    Which one? Poch?

    I don't care - I'm a Liverpool follower. I don't dislike either of the main N London clubs. Poch to Arsenal would be great comedy value though.

    Given he won sweet FA with Spurs, it might not be such a bad thing to continue the Arsenal traditions:

    Let’s see if the one who’s not special anymore and Levy can last until the close of the January transfer window before their relationship explodes?

    The Tottenham ground, it’ll be the best in the Championship next season, the Baggies will think they’ve arrived in heaven.

    I can’t see Nuno going to a Arsenal now there’s a vacancy

    Why take a backward step on your career path?

    Maybe the fat Argentinian or the fat Spanish waiter ?

    Maybe Arsenal fans will realise what a genius Wenger was to deliver the results finishing places in the Premiership whilst the owners had to pay for the plastic ground where now reside. Probably not as they’re thick cunts

    Bye bye Unai "D!ck" Emery.

    Pinno's definitely gone a bit quiet lately...thoughts Mr. P?

    fellow Chelsea fan here. at the start of the season Super Frank was being called out as the first manager for the chop and the most inexperienced in the top six.

    Now look where he is, sitting pretty in 4th, playing great football and with an adoring fanbase.
