People used to jokingly say "4rsenal", but right now that would be an enormous step forward tbh.

Worm our way out? Due to the investigation by CAS it was found that it was about 1/3 of the violations found by FIFA.
I'm not condoning what we did but at least the punishment and fine can be changed.
I mean, at least they're trying! More than what can be said about certain clubs :P
This season is amazing. We all like banter and all but who realistically expected Pochettino to be at Everton already by December?
It's actually amazing Man Utd are the worst they've ever been with a totally incompetent manager and Arsenal still decide to be worse.
Tbh Everton is his level. Real is way out of his league.
so, chelsea got their money pants back on then? who are they buying in january? still think sancho is probably slated for liverpool if they can figure out the details with dortmund. nike seems set at wanting to make him a player to build profile on.
leicester gonna let chillwell go to chelsea in january already? chelsea 100% need to strengthen defense as soon as possible. chelsea gonna get into the mix on all the players laurentiis napoli meltdown have up for grabs? koulibaly to chelsea?
chelsea need one cb that can lead and organize the backline, and a left back. winger they can probably wait until summer, so defense + a rotation striker (personally i'd replace kepa's useless ass though too)
same, i think all the information circling that he's been running on fumes for quite a while probably has a bit of merit to it.

I've never heard of a manager getting a 5 and a half year contract. That's crazy.
Great for Rodgers, though.

I'll forget it by saying, look at current day Arsenal.
Unlike, say, hmm Manchester United, Leicester seem to have the structure and systems in place that'll at least keep them pointed in the right direction.
You will never forget and we will make sure of it by constantly reminding you of it
Things will start to get worse the moment he signs his own players and has to integrate them into the team
I think Leicester will hang around peak Moyes-Everton levels. I'd expect Spurs and United to be substantially better next season than they are this year (and fwiw Leicester and United are level on expected goals right now). Preseason expected finishes of 6th-7th, good enough to make top-4 challenges when the bounces go their way and when competitors are bad.
In particular, I agree that Vardy at age 33 is soon going to be a gaping squad hole that it's very difficult for a club like Leicester to fill.

psure xg does not account for ''where inside the box'' shots are taken from. so a team like city will have 90% of theirs taken from around the penalty spot. and a team like united will have theirs taken from weird angles or players will have put one toe inside the penalty area and then fired.
the owners at leicester are also investing alot in the club, building a brand new training facility/academy and they have one of the best scouting networks in europe up and running. i don't see leicester falling off.
and comparably? united need to buy an entire middfield (plus a winger,striker and a left back), they have one player in pogba who is world class, and they haven't a prayer in hell to keep hold of him. spurs have a severly aging backline (and none in line to replace them) and fullbacks who are absolute trash. lloris is getting up there in age aswell.
both spurs and united have to invest several hundred million to get anywhere near top 4 on a regular basis.
where as, leicester need to replace vardy within the next two years, and bled a couple of the young promising cb's they have. other then that their squad is very healthy age wise.
what leicester is building is something real. it's not a moyes or silva everton project where they piss away 450 million in a handfull of years.
and we already know any club that try approaching leicester to buy talent, will get hung up and bled dry. them sureing up rodgers show they are serious aswell.
but i mean we'll see next summer what spurs and united does, but trust me. they want top 4 back they are both lookin at spending several hundred mill. especially united who have no senior players to bled their academy, and a scouting network that is a certified joke.

Arsenal's pain could easily continue.
They could legimitely find themselves around P13 in a couple matches basically. They aren't realistically risking relegation, but a team with such a budget staying out of top 10 would be insane.
Lol
We're so shit at the moment that any fixtures would look bad, West Ham and Everton are hardly flying themselves though

it's being reported that they do not have a lot of money to spend on the next manager.
Oh wow that's gonna be tough. Realistically the best manager I can see them possibly get is Tuchel or maybe even Ten Hag at the end of the season. They actually have a decent squad but they're gonna need like a really good coach to get the best out of this team. But if they're budget is really constraint then they're really screwed.Gonna have to get real creative.
Curious to see what someone like Arteta would be like in that position.
Looks like there's a new bald fraud in the Premier League. The question is: "Is the PL big enough for 2 of them?"
Struggling to think of one tbh.
Only reason I can think of is if Arsenal somehow convinces them that they'd be able they to actually do a good job there.
Don't think they'd go though tbh but that's who Arsenal should be aiming for.
Yeah that's definitely likely.
Have no idea who they're gonna get though. Their whole situation is dire.
OP
OP
if they can spend 50m on players like Sigurdsson, they can afford to drive a truck of solid gold bars up to Poch's house to sort them out.
My question is, why the fuck wouldn't anyone with manager problems right now do this for Poch?
Because they can see with their eyes that Spurs played horrendously for the better part of this year?
