JaneB Posted October 3, 2023 Author Share Posted October 3, 2023 Do NOT go to Rangers Frank. Yet another crazy choice (if the stories are true) If you must go back into management then apply for a job in the lower leagues and try and work your way up again. Apart from anything else, why would you want to be so far away from London where Christine has her career and all your children are. None of my business obviously but like the Everton job it just doesn’t feel right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only needs to be better than Celtic who won't be the same without Ange and his clever Asian recruitment. That being said, the geography makes no sense for a family man, like you say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another player - imo one of the greatest of all time - that just isn’t cut out for management. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea_Matt Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Loved the quotes by Conor about playing for and captaining Chelsea. I know you need more than just “being Chelsea” but imo he’s easily good enough. I hope Conor signs a new deal soon because I think he’s brilliant! Will be interesting to see what happens when Nkunku returns. Personally, I would love to see a midfield 3 of Enzo, Caicedo and Conor. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backbiter Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Have the media been ridiculing the plastic flags all over St James' Park last night? I remember them having a field day when RA doled out flags for one of our CL games many years ago, so presumably the media and social media are now mocking the Geordies/ Saudis for doing the same. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only pundit I'd heard of was Honigstein, who's pretty good, but one of the others drew a contrast between Newcastle as a club and Chelsea. He said how important it was that a club has 'local boys' like Burn and Longstaff. Fair enough, but the implication was that we don't. I wonder where Reece James, Gallagher, Chalobah, Colwill, Broja (Slough is pretty local, I'd say) and even Sterling come from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped my subscription to BT purely because I had the distinct impression that whoever we were playing were the side they were rooting for , in the end it just pissed me off too much , their commentary team is like a Man United supporters club.

Backbiter Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 The Mirror has long been a Liverpool fanzine, aiming to fill the tabloid gap created by the Merseyside boycott of the Sun. Here they are writing a ridiculous article suggesting Caicedo should have gone there rather than Chelsea. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/liverpool-chelsea-moises-caicedo-agent-31111384?int_source=amp_continue_reading&int_medium=amp&int_campaign=continue_reading_button#amp-readmore-target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well runner up would be a failure surely? I wish he'd stop going for 'top' jobs and lower his expectations. He doesn't need the money after all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're miles off Celtic just now and (sadly) it's the only barometer of success the fans and media would judge him against. Fail to beat Celtic and challenge for the league = immense pressure fast and likely removal. Thankfully looks like it's not happening, it was bad enough seeing him in a City shirt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
