The funniest part is we're supposed to believe Oscar would even look at Diego the wrong way. That wouldn't even be a fight.

True we do have a lot of players of that mould, but I think he's a better finisher than any of our attacking mids bar Pedro.

I'd be for that, strong midfield presence with genuine quality

To be fair to him they've been off the end off some horrible tackles. But I see what you mean over the last two or three seasons he has missed a lot of time.

And Bojan at 10m is a steal. Has anyone seen him play recently, even last season he was on fire until his ACL

I'd snatch Lacazette at that price. But I believe that's BS as fees of around 30-40 were being thrown around this summer. So for him to go to Newcastle wouldn't make sense.

To be a top player in those teams you need that arrogance and confidence which Hazard doesn't have. Once Ronaldo goes Madrid will play Bale on the left Isco at #10 and James on the right. At Bayern he could be their Ribery replacement potentially but what would be the attraction for him to Germany? He would have around 5-10 actual matches a year in the champions league and in the league they're rarely asked questions. At least in Spain he has the climate but does he get in to the Madrid team? Can you imagine if he did and after one bad performance the booboys were out his confidence would be shattered and we all know the effects of that.

I'd let him go if that was what he wanted only if either of Reus or Bale was coming in.

Essien at 0:30 saying "Hi Eva" is the best part of the video

Sleeping dogs

That's modern football mate, people will moan about the way a team's winning and when the team's losing its hell.

Yeah he was signed as the heir to Xavi but lacked the positional discipline to play that role and lacked the patience and build up play of say Iniesta. He's quite a direct player as we see ourselves sometimes tries to force the issue a bit too much so didn't really fit in perfectly with the tiki taka play.

At Barcelona he found himself playing False 9 as a centre forward and even as a left winger at times.

Lallana's quite skillful if we're talking tricky playmakers

Would love to hear a rendition of the "let's go Cena" but with Isco

Even I thought it was curtains when Martial started accelerating!

So disappointed with him

Best part of the game for me by a mile was when Zouma turned on the burners for a recovery tackle against Martial. Beautiful to watch.

Some people need to grow up Hiddink's second game and they're expecting miracles. Yes United are sh*t but so are we. You don't just turn confidence on and off. We've been getting hammered all season so to go to United and come away with a point will go such a long way to restoring how the players are feeling. We can't even get points at home so to get one away was enough for me. We were poor but so were they. And that chance Matic should really have worked De Gea at the minimum but sh*t happens.

Come on City wake up

Apparently it's pellegrini???

Mourinho is portrayed as a bitter old man in the media, how that's as marketable as you say is debatable. Arsenal are a team who will not sack Wenger because of what he means to the club when in all honesty if they're after a premier league win or even the champions league he should be gone now. His naivety has cost them numerous times. That's what I mean by sentiment and business. He has kept them in the top 4 consistently which is probably why he's still there but compare the owners of Arsenal who are happy with the top 4 and a decent cup run as it puts a bit of money in their pockets with how Roman behaves he's a man who wants his team to win and consistently win that's why he has such an itchy trigger finger.

We're a business. Sentiment and business don't really work together. Keeping Jose to keep the fans happy while we're struggling to get out of 16th place almost halfway in to the season is just unacceptable. That kind of blind faith leads to Arsenal syndrome where the idea this individual is a part of the clubs history and cannot be sacked starts to affect the club's success.

Roman did what he had to do. Mourinho was tarnishing the club no two ways about it. I don't understand why he couldn't have just been a bit more humble rather than creating his own enemies. I don't blame him for sacking Jose. He brought it on himself. Other clubs would have let him go for his antics with the press which create a negative vibe. But when results are the way they are now you can't argue it. Booing the players or owner is stupid and makes no sense. Is Mourinho bigger than the club?
