Isak has been playing really well for Newcastle

I feel one of those 42 point week type of GW coming on in FPL

 

[C/O]

I take that back. 42 may be a reach at this point.

Spurs kick me in the nuts again.

Five of the wildest minutes I’ve ever seen late in the Man U/Fulham FA Cup match. Willian sent off for deliberate handball on the goal line, Marco Silva sent off for approaching the ref during the VAR review and Mitrovic sent off for shoving the ref as he was issuing Willian the red card.

Conte loves to make a dramatic exit. Done it almost everywhere he’s left.

@NorCalVol67 Poch?

 

[C/O]

With the right coach, you always think the Spurs have the talent on paper.

@NorCalVol67 Poch?

I didn’t think he would coach another game after this past weekend.

I would be happy if Poch came back, I didn’t want him sacked in the first place. Also, De Zerbi.

Need a coach with an attacking style.

Going to be tough for Brighton to keep De Zerbi. Some big club will want to snatch him up sooner than later.

 

[C/O]

Leave De Zerbi alone.

Oh great. Just in time to get the new manager bounce for their trip up to Goodison in a couple weeks. Was hoping he’d hang around at least past that.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Shiiiiiit.

I heard a quote from Thomas Mueller once that said something along the lines of ‘we win on Saturday’s to be left alone on Sundays.’ Their culture is so used to dominating, that I don’t reckon they are enjoying an actual title race for once in the last decade or so.

Shiiiiiit.

I figured Nagelsmann would get the axe but the timing of it is really weird

For sure. The CL quarters are just around the corner and he got them this far. Maybe they are doing it now to give Tuchel time? I have heard that Nagelsmann wasn’t very liked by the powers that be of late.

There were Tuchel to Bayern rumors swirling for a couple months now, but at the end of the season. I wonder if they view this as a “we don’t think you can beat City and the rest of the field in CL, but we know Tuchel can” type move. It’s a tight turnaround but Tuchel has shown he can stabilize a club quick and win a CL after taking over mid season. He has a ton of talent to work with, but a tighter turnaround window. Will be interesting.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

I will say, I’m just glad Tuchel is staying out of the PL

 

[Nash_Vol97]

What if…

Bayern advance past City.
Chelsea advance past Real Madrid.

Tuchel back in Stamford Bridge would be … something.

Stopped watching Denmark/Kazakhstan at half with Denmark up 2-0. Just saw Kaz came back to win 3-2.

Would be a great story for sure, but I think City will be too much for Bayern.

Any guesses on who Tottenham will turn to now?

They will get it wrong is the only thing I know for sure.
