Swansea sack Guidolin, reports. Bob Bradley to take charge. Could be a good bet for the drop.

I'm not entirely sure what they expect a different manager to do with that sh*tshow of a squad.

Reckon they'll finish above Leicester.

Maybe if they hire Ranieri

I jest but won't be surprised if they do, on paper I think they've got a decent squad and Leicester seem to be prioritising the CL (understandably given it's a once in a lifetime opportunity for them). I think it was Swansea's tactics that were the problem, not the squad necessarily. If Bradley can get them playing 4-2-3-1 again I think they'll beat the drop this year.

well this will be interesting to see Bunker Bob Bradley in charge of an EPL club

Guidolin sacked on his birthday. 

Schweinsteiger kicked out of senior team on his birthday. 

There is so much prickness in this sport I don't know where to start.

Penny for roman's thoughts...pains me to say it, but Spurs have a genuinely good side now acquired at a far cheaper price than our current bunch...granted they haven't won anything yet, but Roman may want to ask a few questions of how they have overtaken us in a fraction of the budget...mind you, his constant sacking of managers may have played a part in that

pochettino is the real deal sadly. also a good example of what good coaching can do with players who initially struggled.

note he was allowed to build his team without interference or the suggestion he could be in trouble after an unspectacular first season in charge.

patience- the thing I least associate with chelsea and abramovich.

I agree that Roman ha stontake his share of the blame, but surely he must look at some of the moment frittered away on turds and wonder what's going on with the club's recruiting policy

Mata still has that touch of class.

Toure not getting a cake on his birthday. Where will it all end, that's what I'd like to know.

At least I can stop having to look out for Aston Villa results now, that's a plus.

Wait, Clarkey is in temporary charge. sh*te, there goes that idea.

I had the exact same revelation when I discussed this with my Villa supporting mate yesterday :D

City/Spurs are a tier above us right now, I can't see Kante/Matic pass the ball out if faced with constant fast pressing like the Spurs put on. KDB was a huge lose, Silva couldn't do everything by himself, Sterling was just a supporting act , and Kun had a pretty poor game by his standard.

I know and that poor Wa Wa Toure didn't even get a cake on his birthday, appalling.

How can you make such a big mistake like that? I mean, The names of the clubs don't even sound similar, One side is fighting for the play offs and the other side will be lucky to win a few games and are preparing for next years draft. He's got a big task on his hands at the Swansea Red Dragons, They are good offensively but their D-fence is atrocious.

Colin has been appointed as manager of Cardiff City. I wonder if he will be one of the eight managers alleged to have taken a bung. And will he last longer in the job than Allardyce or even Diane James?

I think he will do well. He took a complete shambles of a team to 3rd place in Norway, they completely fell apart when he left. I can see Swansea finish safely above the relegation zone

Do it for 'murica

Willian's goal not short listed for goal of the month...

 

Wait, of course, we're in October now.
