McTominay would have scored clutch goals to save ETH's job. He always came up big whenever ManUtd was in crisis mode
The Special Ones (manager talk)

- Start date
He’s their third manager. That said, I don’t understand why they fired DeRossi if they didn’t have a good back up plan. He wasn’t that bad.
Yeah. I messed up the count - 4 this calendar year, 3rd this season. But Roma still have a shot if they can round into a serious form.
I have been forgetting to look here to see if you guys were talking about Roma. What a crazy year.
Not even Watford have done this:
Italian club Piacenza sack two head coaches on the same day - The Athletic

Does Pep actually make it through both seasons of this extension? Pep Guardiola signs two-year contract extension at Man City
Steve Cooper out. Time for the Foxes to get their new manager bounce
edit: Steve Cooper stunned by Leicester sacking with Graham Potter a likely contender for next manager

scuttlebutt is that Dyche's seat is getting warm-ish.
Everton picked up 6/15 from a run of

not nearly good enough, especially with losing to Southampton and allowing 10-man Brentford their first away point of the season. No goals in three games and not much sign of one either.
Upcoming schedule is brutal: this is through the end of 2024:

Dyche just got the public vote of confidence from the incoming owners which, given their record of sacking managers serially at Roma... unless he can significantly improve form (which, to be fair, he sometimes does) I expect him to be gone by the Chelsea game at the latest.

He may be a decent X’s and O’s guy- it would be hard to excel as GOAT central mid without a great tactical mind. So if he gives good analysis that doesn’t surprise me.
Where he failed imo at Everton was an almost frightening misapprehension of what the moment called for - trying to play end to end football at Spurs with a decimated squad and getting shredded by Son on the counter, but then starting 5 at the back and playing for a 0-0 draw to Burnley when we desperately needed 3 points in the relegation fight. He seemed to choose lineups and game plans by dart board.
he will coach up some individual players and will inspire some good performances but the week in week out of consistent planning, not for him.
Graham Potter in frame as West Ham discuss replacing Julen Lopetegui on six-month deal Potter to West Ham on Monday?
Maybe the Hammers should have kept the last guy. Heard he won a European trophy...

Or that Chelsea under Abramovich are still being investigated for FFP violations? Or that the FFP rules even exist in their current state because of teams like Roman’s Chelsea?
I also would never call the Special One a graceful loser. I think Anthony Taylor would agree with me.
Regardless, the world is better with a quote from Mourinho even if I completely disagree with it.

The one bit of credit I'll always give Mourinho was after Liverpool upset them in the 2005 Champions League semi he walked around and congratulated every Liverpool player and applauded the fans at Anfield as he walked to the tunnel. He's always spoken about how great the atmosphere is at Anfield is, as well. So yeah, he's a blowhard, but one who can show occasional signs of class.
