Sergeant Wilson Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Just now, Jim McLean's Ghost said: Allardyce would like to maintain his reputation of saving teams from relegation. Sheffield Utd are practically a lost cause. They are on their way to the Championship. I know, he's not daft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will need to be someone desperate for a job because it is a side that is almost certainly going down. I suppose Nigel Pearson is available.

Yes and the other candidates touted by the media for the West Brom job, e.g. Eddie Howe and Mark Hughes. It will be hard to attract someone decent with one only point and a mediocre squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Word on the street (or at least 5 live speaking to local reporters) is that they're sticking with wilder, as he would be best suited to get them promoted again.That might be the best option.Sometimes gambling on a new manager and new players halfway through can be a very costly decision, and one that night set them plummet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theroadlesstravelled Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/foden-jones-man-city-liverpool-19478404 I'm not sure comparing Jones to Foden is fair. Foden is a mid-table EPL player. Jones should aim higher than that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lessons learned, don't throw good money after bad by changing the coach with a big payout and having to fund a futile January transfer splurge for the new guy. Probably looking at a Burnley-ish model of taking it on the chin and coming back in a year or two. They've got a coach there who has shown he can do the job, so why take an expensive punt on someone else at this stage?

Ron Aldo Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 For me, the bottom 3 looks a stick on to be Fulham, WBA, and Sheffield United. Regardless of West Brom brining in Big Sam, they have a Championship level squad and will go down as a result.I think Burnley will eventually pull clear. Brighton could be there or thereabouts but have a better squad than the current bottom 3 and should have enough to stay up. It would be hilarious if Arsenal get dragged right into it but I expect they'll get their act together at some point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised that, barring a knock, Salah is being rested now. Liverpool don't play again until the 27th. Not sure why Klopp has two keepers on the bench this afternoon.

Cain and Clarkson, both midfielders, have been on the bench in the UCL.No doubt a ploy by Klopp so he can complain that he can't fill the bench with outfield players due to the amount of games, when we all know it's a lot of shite. Mane puts them 2 ahead, Palace have squandered some decent opportunities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
