Not checked any of the above but did he improve these clubs from where he found them when he took over?

Porto, Sporting, Benfica, Sevilla, Atletico, Bilbao, Udinese, Shaktar, Ajax and Dortmund all regularly sell there best players and re-invest. Just because no one in England has done it as a business model before doesn't mean it doesn't work if you plan ahead.

Dislike the plastic side of their fan base but you get that with any major club. Their away support deserves nothing but respect. Puts ours to shame.

Redmond - gets the ball on the left. Stands still. Attempts to run across the edge of the box. Dispossessed. Repeat

The more I watch the more I've come to realise that it really isnt Puel's fault. We dominate games, we create chances, we just cant finish them. To repeat what has been said above, I didnt hear one person xall for Puel to be sacked atthe match yesterday but I did hear many question the quality of players he has been given. My own gripe might be that we play with 3 reserved midfielders in the middle and might be better pushing one further forward in a 4-2-3-1 but at the minute I again can't really think of a player we have suited to that role. A striker and AMC are what is needed this window. We can make do with our defence from the evidence of the last two games, we just need to find more goals.

Or let them write what they want. Let them pen a story saying Jose if off only for him to sign a new contract a few hours later.

Bas Dost

Heard from a very good source that Mata is fighting strongly against a move to Everton. Really doesn't want it and is desperate fpr a move to Spain if it materialises. Perhaps Everton haven't given him the floodlight speech yet...

All sounds a bit odd to me. Koeman is this big horrible dictator who the players hate, doesn't stick to club philosophies, goes off on holiday when he wants and we still want him to extend? Does that make any sense to anyone? Sounds like a bit of PR work to me.

I think this article summarises best my view on England fans abroad. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2016/06/11/the-violence-on-marseilles-streets-is-not-on-the-same-scale-as-i/

God damm it Victor, this isn't about sex, it's about trust!

Might have been said already but if we are mad, imagine how Leicester fans are feeling. Win the league and still lose their best players. Just shows that all this talk about a clubs ambition is rubbish and it all boils down to money

Koeman to Everton a done deal.

Probably Bertrand, just have a feeling that maybe Fonte fancies a shot at CL with one of the big Portuguese clubs

Judging by Long's latest tweet, he seems to be looking forward to the Europa League next year so don't think it will be him.

Bertand, Wanyama, Mane & Pelle? Perhaps Fonte?

I remember someone suggesting this for Mane on a chants thread last season but the idea was shot down.

J-Rod bagged a hat-trick for U21's today. Great day all around

A long shot I know but does anyone have a couple of spare tickets for this game?

Again a bit of a desperate plea. Looking for two tickets which I can pick up in Manchester!

Ben Smith on 5live saying that Rodgers has a big problem with a few other players. Sterling apparently hinted that he might stay if Brendan goes!

But woulde?

City, Arsenal, United, Liverpool, Ourselves and Spurs?

Fair play to whoever it was that game up with the Johnstone Paint comeback! Brilliant.
