Landrup was going to leave Swansea anyways this summer....

So, it was a matter of time...

When you have a limit in terms of funds and your best player gets injured, it is difficult to maintain your good league form...

On a side note, I guess cruff was right about landrup work ethic after all the reports coming out from Wales about practices...

I expect Landrup to get a job in the summer. Maybe even United....

Manchester United's 'Ask Carrick' on Twitter hugely backfired when some of the fans vented out their anger with some of these hilarious questions...

‪#‎AskCarrick‬ if you could drop one player from the team how would you tell Cleverley?.

#AskCarrick How does it feeling knowing Begovic has more goals than you this season.

#askcarrick in what game was your most memorable pass back to your keeper.

#AskCarrick Do you watch Cleverly train to feel good about yourself?

#AskCarrick On a scale of Tom Cleverly to 10, how bad is Ashley Young?

#AskCarrick Which pub will you go to watch the World Cup?

#AskCarrick Would Moyes consider putting De Gea upfront, so that you can pass the ball the right way?

#AskCarrick If a ball leaves your boot travelling at 30km per hour at 3 pm on saturday, how long does it take to reach De Gea?

#AskCarrick Have you tried putting on your kit backwards so you could pass the ball forward?

#AskCarrick As a child, did you ever dream of becoming a footballer? What stopped you?

#AskCarrick Be Honest, Do You Ever Include Yourself In Your Fantasy Premier League Team?

#AskCarrick Do you think Welback has really been training too hard on penalty?

#AskCarrick Are you going to reply to any of the #AskCarrick tweets or pass it over to De Gea?

#AskCarrick Do you die a little inside when you're looking for someone to pass to and Tom Cleverley is to your left.

#AskCarrick Do you ever look at Young, Cleverly, Smalling, Welbeck & question the point of living?

#AskCarrick Did Cleverly win a competition on the back of a box of cereals to play for MUFC?

#AskCarrick If you had to choose between having

Cleverley as a midfield partner or being stabbed in the

leg, how many stabs would you take?

#AskCarrick Do you get depressed when you see Tom

Cleverley's name on the team sheet and realize you're

gonna have to play with 10 men?

#AskCarrick How many times has Mata tried to run away since signing for us?

this was just EPIC!!!! thank u for sharing this and making me laugh so much.

‘I am deeply disappointed to have been dismissed as manager of Swansea City. In particular, the manner in which it happened and the actions the club has taken since notifying me in the briefest of letters which gave no reasons why such hasty and final action was deemed necessary. I am, of course taking legal advice and the LMA have already written to the club asking for a proper explanation as to why I was summarily dismissed. Until we receive the response I am unable to say any more about the termination but I do want to take this early opportunity to thank the Swansea City fans for their continued support and say it has been an honour to manage this great football club.

‘I have thoroughly enjoyed my time managing in the Barclays Premier League which I consider to be the one of the best leagues in world football. I leave the club proud of our collective achievements over the past 20 months and I believe we have continued the club’s progression in the manner of my predecessors including Roberto Martinez and Brendan Rodgers.

‘Of course the obvious highlight during my time in charge was leading Swansea to the first major trophy in the club’s history in winning the Capital One Cup at Wembley resulting in European qualification. In addition, our 9th place in the Barclays Premier League was our highest finish in 31 years and the second highest in the club's 102-year history which again is something which fills me with pride. This season we have all enjoyed the memorable journey in the Europa League where the team will soon to face Napoli in the last 32 of the competition. The club has informed me that I cannot visit the training ground to say my farewells to the players so I do that now through this statement. The players have been fantastic and their contribution under the very professional guidance of my coaching staff has been absolutely fundamental to the club’s recent successes. Three members of my staff have also been dismissed.

‘Whilst league results have been disappointing of late, we are still 12th in the table and it is there for all to see the fine margins in the league this season in terms of points that separate 11 clubs. Although we have been unfortunate with injuries, I believe our league form would have improved and that we would have benefited from the forthcoming Europa League and FA Cup matches.

‘I wish the club the very best for the future and for the rest of the season in the Barclays Premier League, Europa League and The FA Cup.’

-Michael Landrup

Why do people expect arsenal to lose to liverpool??

They haven't lost there since 2007 and that was when crouch scored a hatrick during benitez time.

The worst result arsenal will get is a draw. I want them to lose but arsenal is liverpools bogey team.
