Big Sam sacked by Everton. Shame. That was a perfect match.

[Hagbard Celine 10848]

Perfect match for Pool.  And anyone else in or aspiring to the chase group.

Not so surprising, the top 6 had no managers sacked. of interest, the 3 newly promoted teams did not sack their managers.

Carvalho is probably out at Swansea too.

I keep hearing Leicester is likely to sack Puel and Stoke will dump Lambert. 

[maninblack 7974]

Chelsea are more than likely going to fire Conte and I'd count Wenger as a pseudo sacking.

[sidis 9822]

fairly certain that everton is going to announce a deal with zidane any minute...

[Goo Punch 4275]

The momentum of the “Arteta to Arsenal” rumors is building. I hope it’s true.

[maninblack 7974]

Still holding out hope for BRodge

[Firemans4Horn 18034]

Still holding out hope for RHodg

[Captain Ron 12863]

Still holding out hope for DMoye.

Everton Sack Manager After Discovering He’s Sam Allardyce

Sources state they were ‘shocked at the discovery’

In the replies to that tweet, they discuss what the Championship sides earn. 

Every other club in the championship only earned £4.5m. Makes what Brighton and Huddersfield were able to do pretty amazing.

the goal that Southampton gave up with 5 seconds left to go in the season cost them £2 million.

The pass and touch were worth £1 million each. 

Chin up, though. You stayed up and you've got Sparky at the helm - guaranteed top 10 finish next season.

I'm sure you'll have some Liverpool cash coming in soon.

LIVERPOOL EYE DEAL TO SIGN ALEX MCCARTHY FROM SOUTHAMPTON

The rumors are only getting stronger-

Arteta to Arsenal with Henry, Pires, Santi Cazorla, and Freddie Ljungberg all reportedly to be on his staff.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

kinda like the way your mom is on my staff, HEYOOOO, MAGGOTS 

[skipperj 377]

Wait. Are they playing? That’s the transfer budget?

[Schulz2.0 28951]

Looks like West Ham will hire Manuel Pellegrini.

And reports are that Santi will return to play at Villarreal instead of coaching for Arteta.

 

[Goo Punch 4275]

Super sad over Santi not getting a proper send off. We never recovered from losing him. You can seriously go back to the moment he went down and look at record from before and after- it’s not even close. No team should rely on one player the way we did Santi, but it is what it is. Damn I’m gonna miss that little mago.

This charming man.

I think that job is too big for a first time manager but what do I know.

Can’t really explain this yet. The Arteta train just kept building and building and then WHAM. Unai Emery. Meh. I’m wondering what went wrong with Arteta, because he was clearly the first choice. Maybe he didn’t like our transfer budget? I don’t know. But I’m pretty nonplussed by this.

So Unai Emery to Arsenal?  That actually seems like a sensible choice.  Emery has gotten a bad rap the last couple of years due to PSGs failings in Europe, but he does know how to win European trophies at second rate clubs.

Mikel likes our blue kits better.

Yeah, I think common sense has prevailed. That job is too big for Arteta.

Over/under on Blud/Fams in year 3?

I don't disagree that it's not a job you want to throw a guy in for his first gig.
