I've always had a thing for redheads anyway.

I used to write to Gordon Strachan all the time when he was here.

Why isn't cole palmer talked about like bellingham ? His numbers are far superior in a better league

TBF I was listening to Radio 5 last night and Clint Morrison (who is one of the best co commentators there is imo) was waxing lyrical about him. He's a superb player and Man City (I know it might be FFP enforced) have dropped an absolute bollock in getting rid, he's better than Foden.

Have to admit, when he was sold to Chelsea I thought "how much?" but in hindsight it's an absolute steal.

I reckon if they get turned over by Rangers in the week that’ll be it for Ange

Would be one of those funny little narratives football throws up that Rangers get an ex-Celtic man the sack

They'll wallop Rangers easily to be fair so he'll be fine.

I am not really sure what Tottenham want, they've had dour football under other managers and finished no better off. 5th last season after losing their main goalscorer yet still being an altogether better team to watch. They sacked Poch and that went well for them didn't it.

I can’t see them ‘walloping’ anyone at the moment

Rangers don’t tend to do too badly in Europe, they’ll give them a game

5th last season and yet their fans were delighted they didn’t beat Man City because it would have meant Arsenal won the league. If they had beaten City they’d have been in the CL and likely capable of attracting a better calibre of player.

Fans attitude is pathetic really and Ange has rightly called this out on numerous occasions.

How is that not a penalty for Wolves VAR looking still not given. Wolves have now equalised.

The big VAR decisions always seem to go against Wolves. That first decision was a shocker, was a definite foul. O’Neil probably loses his job if they don’t equalise.

Will be amazed if ONeil is there by the weekend. He’s had more than long enough imo.

IMO I know Wolves are their own worst enemy defending but Gary O'Neil seems to be 1 very unlucky manager.

O'Neil is on a hiding to nothing really. Anyone would struggle with the amount of players they have sold & not adequately replaced. Some absolutely terrible VAR decisions against as well.

When you admit you've lost the fans, criticise the owners & your club captain is squaring up to his own teammates & coaching staff though, I think time is up.

I think he's a pretty capable head coach too as he had them playing well for the most part last season.

VAR commented that the pen wasn't considered because it was a different phase, what a joke you're either the arbiter or your not?🫣

Yea, he's been severely hamstrung this season.

Their track record with VAR is crazy, the amount of stuff they don't get/get given against them is beyond a joke!

I do think O'Neil's luck is right out .Taking last night a corner that resulted in Soucek header went off the West Ham player last, should have been a goal kick.Then a Wolves player pushed in the back to the floor right on the edge of the area in possession and about to shoot.What should have been a penalty West Ham player stands on a Wolves players foot while he's in possession. Both those offences outside the area result in a foul and very often a card. A foul is a foul where ever it is commited.
These decisions cost managers their jobs simply because officals don't do their jobs properly 1 big mistake to go again'st you in a game is unlucky 3 are too much.

The Leicester fans at work won’t be happy, they were hoping O’Neil would still be in charge when they play them next week.
