  • Andrea Pirlo and ex-Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri are both contenders for the Everton job, with the former supposedly in talks with owner Farhad Moshiri. (Calciomercato, in Italian)

    Pirlo was hardly a great success at Juve, though as a "big name" he might satisfy some of the star players
    Why bow down to players. Pirlo hasn’t been a good manager so far, why don’t clubs take punts on the likes of the Norwich or Brentford managers
    When a player from Europe is signing for a club, would he want to work with Pirlo everyday or a man that's won the English second league? 
    Pirlo has just finished 4th in a one team league
    Pirlo one of the best midfielders of his generation you mean. 

    If you're a CM, I feel like Pirlo would capture your attention more than Farke. 
    To use an extreme contrary argument, Gazza was one of the best midfielders of his generation, but you wouldn't appoint him as a manager...
    Oh i don't know, the 6 weeks he spent in charge of Kettering were a roaring success..........

    Their owner at the time "Last night's conversation was a result of 37 separate incidents I have had to deal with since the appointment of Paul Gascoigne as manager. Unfortunately he has been under the influence of alcohol before, during and after several first-team games and training sessions".

    Their owner at the time wasn't the best either though:

    Nuno has agreed to become Palace manager.

    Former Huddersfield manager David Wagner has agreed to become West Brom manager. Not a bad appointment.

    Dunno, he's felt a bit of a one trick pony after getting Schalke relegated

    Agreed, surprised they've gone for him, although I guess he was an available manager with a recent Championship promotion on his CV. Thought Wilder had the job in the bag last week, not sure what happened there.

    Bit sad that I'm more ITK with Palarse than us.

    Move over Louis.

    Paulo Fonseca (previously in charge @ Roma) now in talks to be the next Spurs boss

    Roma sacked Fonseca to bring in Jose.
    Spurs sack Mourinho to potentially bring in Fonseca. 

    Could a loan swap not have saved a lot of money in compensation  :D

    Two words.  Cheapest Option.

    If we end up getting sponsored by Wendy's I'll be really worried about our burger stash with this guy lurking around the city...

    Simon Bassey who had been Barnet's interim manager has left them to join Pompey where he'll be working under the Cowleys

    I hadn't realised that he had been part of our youth system, according to Wiki this was between 1992 and 1994 between 16 and 18

    and call me cynical, the links to Poch and Conte were leaked before the ST renewal deadline.  As soon as it passes, oooh Spurs have 'concerns'.  Well I never.  
    I have to say you called all this weeks ago. You said Levy would make a show of going for people exciting and expensive to make it seem like he's being adventurous, but then talks would 'break down' or it just wouldn't happen, then you'd end up with someone middling. Good shout.

    Some random Aussie bloke off the street has been appointed Celtic Manager

    Going to be thrown in at the deep end what with an important pre-season friendly coming up for them.

    I can see the attraction of Young Boys.

    Can someone post the Kenneth Williams photo please?

    Someone sees that it will be the end of my England cricket career before it starts!!
