There is something not right about this situation. Might find out in a few months perhaps but I get the feeling something has happened that we aren't being told about

Forgot all about this match. Phillipe Albert man Why is he even in the box to win a penalty just before half time and was bombing forward and in the box when Fox got the third. Never see centre backs like him again

Was doing the rounds on twitter yesterday. Think it was Geordie Dentist (I know ) Edit - found it

Going to be so intriguing to see what system and players Eddie decides to go with. One of the most anticipated team news for a long while.

Deal is off for Emenalo, apparently it was due to personal reasons

I still believe he is easily good enough for the Premier League if he was in the right team. I would be delighted if we signed him in January

When the manager is the fittest person at training you know theres a monumental job on your hands

At last! Now is the real beginning of our journey. Delighted

While I do agree Solskjaer hasn't done that bad a job since he took over I think you just need to look at Chelsea to see why he probably needs binned. Chelsea were miles behind Man Utd when Tuchel took over. In less than a year he has turned Chelsea into a real title contender.

I know its all opinions but shocked at anyone not putting Guardiola at number 1. Won 10 trophies at city to go with 21 at Barca and Bayern. Played probably the best football since Premier began 1. Guardiola 2. Klopp 3. Conte 4. Tuchel 5. Rodgers 6. Potter 7. Bielsa 8. Benitez 9. Moyes 10. Howe 11. Dyche 12. Hassenhuthl 13. Vieira 14. Solskjaer 15. Ranieri 16. Frank 17. Arteta 18. Lage (Too early to gage)

Some twat in net who has never been a goalkeeper in his life. 94th minute free kick and Shelvey floats it out wide instead of testing him. Fuxking braindead bald cunt

Fucks sake Just seen highlights. What was their attendance?! Genuinely didnt see 1 fan on the clip

Got a similar feel to how it went at Celtic. Was waiting for confirmation for few days and they were sorting backroom staff out and suddenly he pulked out. Be disappointed if it happened here and I don't think it will but its definitely a carbon copy of Celtic

Jesus what the hell has happened to Soccer Saturday, no wonder Jeff Stelling wsnts out. Every discussion now involves all the panel talking over each other trying to be the loudest on any topic. Cant even hear what they're saying most the time as everyone talking. Clinton Morrison is by far the worst at it. Discussing Ronaldo now and Merson and Lee Hendrie both reckon Man Utd would be a better team without him and that hes a luxury. At least I agree with Morrison and Kris Boyd in saying its utter bollocks. How Ronaldo gets blamed for Oles tactics and Maguires defending is unbelievable

Probably been asked and apologies if so but would we be able to bid for Connor Gallagher from Chelsea? Not sure if youcan play for 3 different clubs in a season or if its just involving loan deals. Maybe bid £30m for him?

How the hell is Al-Ghazi not been sent off yet. Ref totally bottling that. Bet he gets an equaliser later

Hope he gets announced today and can be in the dugout tomorrow evening. Would love to see what team and system he goes for. Could get an early idea who he likes and doesn't fancy from our squad

The more I think about Howe the more exciting I think this could be. I've always rated him and I love his style of play. Genuinely think he could shock a few fans and make a big impression here. Hope he gets the job now

Imagine a new young manager took over Carlisle United this morning. Bucket collections to keep them afloat. He turns around their form and stops them getting relegated to Non League Football. Next season he sorts them out and they get promoted as Champions of League 2. Next season in League one they walk the league including doing the double over the biggest club to ever grace League One and everybodys cup final - Sunderland. Carlisle in championship sounds mental but they win that league including 8-0 away win at Birmingham. First time in their history Carlisle United are in the Premier League! They play great football and finish 9th! Carlisle finish 9th in Premier. This manager keeps Carlisle in Premier League for 5 seasons. Eventually they are relegated on final day. This, manager who done all this is labelled shite, overrated and a failure. Absolutely incredible This is a mirror image of what Eddie Howe did at Bournemouth.

Got lots of companies house emails this morning confirming transfer. Guess thats 1 less things the Mackems can cling onto now. Poor Exile

Nowt to do with wages according to the oracle that is Guillem Balague

Aye that was my thought but someone on twitter (I know) said it doesn't matter if there is a release clause. No idea how true that is like

So Eddie Howe lads...

Any chance the UK media are wrong and there actually hasn't been any communication at all? Seems hard to believe the Villarreal president as so many different sources have reported it but I guess he could be right yeah??

Man Ronaldo never fucking fails to deliver. Guy is an absolute machine. Sensational strike
