We should start getting ready for this Wingman :P

Huge win. To beat City as soundly as this while missing Alexis Sanchez and Santi Cazorla is huge.

I have Odion Ighalo (2 goals) and Bacary Sagna (1 assist) on the bench at FPL. Annoying as fuck. Would've given me 80 points in total and help me keep the point difference I have with the rest of you. My gamble on Georginio Wijnaldum (made him my captain) this week has been quite a disaster.

Rooney or the manager?

Good thing it's almost Christmas. The acceptance for drinking it away is higher.

@The Flash : Congrats! As you say - huge win for Arsenal. If Leicester fall off, as we all expect them to, and United fail to get back in the title race, this could be one of the decisive games in the title race. And let this be perfectly clear, I'd much rather see Arsenal win the title than City.
 
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge told the media that "he thinks he knows where Pep Guardiola is going to but would like to leave the announcement to him or his employer". It's clearly Manchester City. His close ally Txiki Begiristain is already at City, they've built a huge academy and training ground, they have shitloads of money and are looking to compete at a higher level.
 
Wonder who Chelsea are gonna get for next season, since they waited too long to sack Mourinho and lost chances at getting Guardiola, Ancelotti and Klopp. Maybe Conte if he flops at EUROs?

They're gonna push for Simeone and hope he's looking for a new challenge.

I've heard he said he only wants to coach the teams he played for.

I hope he doesn't do it anyway. Love what he has built in Atletico, I want him to pull an Alex Ferguson there. They have a fantastic young core at the moment. He mentioned the young core they have as a reason why he'd like to stay at Atletico yesterday, actually.

“We have a potential that no one has. (Jan) Oblak, (José) Giménez, (Luciano) Vietto, (Yannick) Carrasco, Óliver (Torres), Koke, (Ángel) Correa, Saúl (Ñíguez), Lucas (Hernandez), Thomas (Partey)… 10 young players and the veterans are at the perfect age.” Antoine Griezmann isn't much older than these guys (24), you also have Matias Kranevitter who's currently on loan at River Plate. Very strong group of talents.

Fuck me that was atrocious. I guess LVG in/Mourinho out is happening after all. Probably Giggs for Chelsea, then Mourinho after that. But who knows.
