Fernando

No we can't, his the best we got because the board and owner wanted youth. We will be continue with him no matter what. And I call this, this will be a Benitez season. We will finish in top 4 and we will be scratching our head how the heck we did that.

I think 7th was the expected level for us. So it would not change anything. However I do see this season similar to Benitez season where we finish 3rd because everyone else was so bad. Likewise, here we will finish top 4 just because everyone around us is bad.

He's not going to get sacked. Your mad to believe that is going to happen. The board are happy with him and will continue with him.

He's done good for us. Helped us a lot. Still we have no one to turn when he's not firing or need replacement. Is a travesty we still have to rely on bats. But I blame it on the board constant change of managers. With Conte we went from lukaku to morata, then with Sarri to higuain. It does not help when we need to get what the manager wants and then he's not here in 6 months.

It's hard with Jorginho and kante in the middle. They just don't work well. Midfield is the problem of all these imbalances we have.

Our team is very mediocre when he's the best winger we have. And yet people want to sack the manager and we continue to go downhill in player quality after every manager sacking.

Same was said of Sarri. Now his team is in first in the league of Italy. I think the team sucks just that. Because it's same issue since Mourinho. We always do bad around this time, with Mourinho, Conte, Sarri and now Lampard. So it's not the managers but the mediocre players we have. Any new manager we get it will be the same just like Sarri and others. Do good at the beginning and then fade away during these times.

I think tonight he was worse then Willian. Having him was like having one less man.

The problem is the managers. Conte he wanted lukaku and then got morata. We got screwed there. In comes in Sarri and he wanted higuain. I blame it on our constant chop of managers.

Kante as a 3 men midfielders is a waste. Has been horrible lately. He has always been an always will be the best as a 2 DM.

Agent David Luiz?

He has been a bit up and down in form but that's expected for youth. I'm not mad nor surprised as I actually expected this with youth. So it's all good for me.

Panic buys incoming!

Eric Bailly: Manchester United trigger two-year extension in defender's contract I have a question about this? How come United does this and we don't do this? It helps so that no one can leave on a free.

Should buy him. no loan.

Yeah Conte is just short term right now. Trying to win the league does that to you.

I'm glad, guy is really good. I think the best out all of our youth.

Not bad i guess inter going for the title.

Should have left him there, but hey since we are doing with youth great this season, maybe we can fast track his development to a team in the epl.

Exactly we already done that in the past and end up with dead wood. Zapacosta, Drinkwater are a few that come to mind. I much rather not sign anyone and hold til the summer when we can get the target that we want.

@Vesper That's a good a source for reading about futbol. It's very professional. Thank you

So it's interesting that Trump said this way before Iran came to that conclusion. So how could Trump know that before hand?

Apparently not going to happen, the sanctions more incoming: US knew Iranian missiles were coming ahead of strike; Trump announces new sanctions https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2020/01/08/us-officials-warned-missile-launch-iraq-bases-troops/2842200001/

Yes I think Iran was also smart. They did attack but made it so no casualty happens, as they don't want a war right now. Now the last problem remains, if Iran does go ahead full speed with the nuclear weapons? If they are smart again they will wait till Trump and Netanyahu are out of the view....

Agreed, that being said nuking Iran because of that issue is lunacy. Iran has many good people, just the regime that is bad. You don't go dropping a nuke just because you don't like the regime. Your killing many innocent people. Anyhow I hope we don't get to that.
