I dunno, not sure how the process would have worked but in Leading Sir Alex says something along the lines of “I asked Pep to phone me before he accepted an offer from another club but he didn't and wound up joining Bayern Munich in July 2013”.

For those thinking that Pep was an option - pretty sure he was never interested. Sir Alex has mentioned in multiple interviews that he wanted to speak to Pep about the role but he never returned his calls.

Most already stated but: - Glazer takeover - Nani red card in the CL (convinced we would have won it that year otherwise) - 0-2 at home to Burnley under Ole - 7-0 - 4-4 against Everton having been 4-2 up to effectively hand City the title and create that Ageurooo moment

I agree, the decisions weren’t even that controversial and yet here they are jumping on the bandwagon that somehow Man United are getting favourable decisions more than others. The amount of attention the media is giving this is getting out of hand, we need the club (whoever it is - players...

Not sure what’s more embarrassing, Newcastle losing to 10 men having been 1-0 up or Drury’s dreadful ‘Liver bird soars’ soundbite.

Brighton can, and will, absolutely take Chelsea to the cleaners if they do end up selling Caicedo. The guy just signed a contract extension to 2027 and I wouldn’t be surprised if part of the hardballing is sticking two fingers up for taking Cucarella and Potter. They don’t even need to sell...

Exactly. I don’t get the logic in them staying now. Buyers haven’t been queuing round the block as they’d hoped. We now only have two serious bidders, both of whom will be royally narked if they’re informed it was all for nothing. SJ could well go and buy a different club, bringing yet another...

What a strange bunch Everton fans are, running onto the pitch like they just won the League. They shouldn’t have been anywhere near this mess in the first place with the resources they’ve got. Now that shower of players and the board will be thinking they’ve done a good job.

People who are claiming that we’re not going to make Top 4 are just being plain ridiculous. Nothing’s a given but our run-in is much more favourable than Newcastle’s and we’ll be back to one game a week (like most other teams) after tomorrow. Need an away win against Wet Spam to get some...

Another ETH substitute masterclass. Fred and Martial literal 0/10 performances. Why oh why do we switch off in the second half every time FFS!

If he’s keen on a statue he should just go to City, they’ll put up a statue of anyone who’s been there more than five minutes. If we’re in for Kane I’d like to optimistically think we’re favourites. People often overlook how much Spurs/Chelsea dislike each other, plus their erstwhile London...

Thought I’d cool off overnight but still fuming. Worst performance of the season so far. Yes, even worse than the Liverpool game. At least we were still in it for most of the first half there, and there was some fortune on Liverpool’s side. Last night though up front we couldn’t hit a cow’s...

Sancho, Martial, Maguire, De Gea straight in the bin please. Major reinforcements needed in the summer.

Indeed, the numerous rumours in the press suggesting that Chelsea want to sign him permanently are ludicrous. Or maybe they aren’t, given Boehly’s current spending record.

Top 4 finish has to be the priority now. If you’d said we could have top 4 and a trophy at the start of this season I’d have taken that gladly.
