I see Chelsea have today appointed Liam Rosenior as their manager on a 6-year contract.
It will be interesting to see how he does at such a toxic and demanding club. I know we were looking at him before we appointed the PlayStation pillock, so it'll be interesting to see how he gets on.
Eckert was the U-21 manager and no doubt he would have liked to have added a youngster or two to the first team training/squad - seeing as he knows better than anyone their progress.
Sadly, he's had to play the likes of Aribo and Damion Downs to put them in the shop window in order to bring in the extra £££ for January - as per the SR way.
In the dirty world of football backhanders & money/agents/PL 'elite' teams like Chelsea & Man United, I wouldn't put it past them to let Maresca go to Old Trafford... as long as the FA get their 'cut' from any deal.
Nice of Adam Armstrong to come out this afternoon & throw his defence under the bus for a shockingly poor display. He also points out that both Flynn Downes & Tom Fellows missed good opportunities... but not a word on his own two golden chances to score that he missed.
I reckon he'll be the new United boss by the weekend.
As for Nuno ; West Ham held an emergency board meeting late last night. It doesn't look good for him and the knives are out. Ironically, I'd have Nuno here in a heartbeat.
Tonda is a big problem at this club. He dictates the formation & picks the team. He gives them a game plan.
But the players themselves need to take a long, hard look in the mirror. Poor finishing. Half-arsed effort from some. Too comfortable under a young, inexperienced manager who they probably don't respect in any way, shape or form.
Even if we get decent additions in January, nothing will change under this manager. The players don't believe in Tonda or his way of playing... and neither do the fans.
