I too thought that for a while. Then I realised that other managers simply wished they were brave enough to have the courage of their convictions to the same degree.

Maybe play Wellington instead of Manning then if defensive solidity is the game. If fit Leo has to start.

To be fair even Pep was making noises which would indicate him as the natural successor. Pep didn't talk about any other manager in such glowing terms.

Even though his Leicester journey is delivering all the joy I hoped for I would be here for it. The only trouble is that the light which burns twice as bright burns half as long as we discovered at Rangers.

In his words "emotion took over" and the players ignored instructions for that

Nuno has been sacked. Time to tell West Ham there are no take-backsies

One whose chairman has historically been incredibly supportive of his managers moving on mid season as well.

He's barely been able to bring in 20 new players as well. We've experienced first hand the toll that his high energy style of football and beast like training has on even the fittest athletes. That's a woefully thin squad he has to work with.

Yes, Russ, it's all coming together. Decent of you to let the rest of the league know what's coming for them. In other news, it's November already.

Dammit I knew I'd miss someone

Aye. Other than champions elect Boro we'll have played everyone at the top of the table.

Clearly different. If the player on the end of the elbow is wearing a red and white shirt it's a fair challenge. Otherwise automatic red.

Weren't they? Until Martin worked his magic and established his culture they were flirting with the relegation zone. They wouldn't have been able to attract half that squad without him at the helm. Let alone drill them into a unit capable of playing his system to its fullest potential.

As I said on another thread Leicester were in danger of back to back to back relegations this season. They were lucky to be able to bring in a manager capable of stabilising them and laying the foundations.

When you say "shit blue kit" do you mean "hypnotically mesmerising away kit"?
