Oh, that really would be one of the best things to happen ever (if not in recent times). Unlikely it'll happen this season but if Dalglish is still manager next season, then who knows? A man can dream.

So, is he saying anything remotely interesting? (I think I know the answer...)

It's all mind games, nice little mind games...

Progress.

It seems that the main argument against Roy (from what I've seen on Facebook anyway) is that he failed at Liverpool. Shite argument if you ask me.

If this is true then it would be a very good signing indeed. Arsenal would also be signalling their intent/target for next season (more than likely a title challenge) and that could be enough to keep Van Persie at the Emirates.

Same, after all, he was signed for a low fee and has done a decent enough job here imho. Yes, he does have his limitations (and that does lead to mistakes unfortunately) and yes, he is probably the weakest link in the team but some of the abuse he gets on here (things like "he's a c***", etc.) is quite OTT imo. If he does make a mistake in a game that costs us a goal, then yeah he does deserve a bit of criticism (it's the same with every other player - do well = praise; do bad = criticism). A bit of balance here and there wouldn't go amiss like. If Danny goes, he goes. Would wish him all the best for the future.

Just caught up with the news, yep, I'm quite happy with this. (f*** you Harry )

He's blatantly going to make it for Wednesday. He always recovers from his "injuries".

That should be put in the British Museum tbh.

Agreed. Fancy us. Same here, it's my gut feeling.

There goes my fantasy football points. Oh well.

My highest scorer this weekend was Walker with 15 points. Dropped down to 112nd place, think my dream of a top 100 finish is over.

Just caught up with today's events, so I see that Podolski's transfer to Arsenal is a done deal. Good signing though I still sort of see him as a Van Persie replacement...

I now have a sudden urge to head into town, haha.

GIFs speak louder than words. I concur.

Niall Quinn just talkd non-stop s**** for five minutes. Sounds like I'm not missing out on anything then. Good.

So, anything happening?

The media are going to break him (they're certainly in the process of doing so right now!). If he does indeed get appointed, will definitely give him a chance. Like some people have mentioned, he does have experience of different leagues and all that so logically speaking, he should be able to bring his knowledge to some good use on the international stage.

Decided to stay in, I'm going to assume that most pubs/bars will be packed anyway (plus I'll have no-one to go with!).

Contemplating whether or not to go and watch this in Manchester City Centre...

Would be typical after all this build up in the media

Tevez will score tonight.

Continuing his cycle. Good plan.

Is 3 at the back with 2 wing backs that wacky really ? No Williamson no Simpson, Dougles if we signed him... BUT I am not a fan I was just putting out there due to this Santon debate. I see him as a fullback not a winger anyway, so him as a RB in a flat back four would be my preferred choice. Actually, tbf to you, we did attempt to play that formation yesterday with Santon and Jonas as wingbacks. It didn't really work so can't really see it being a long term option as such.
