Looks like Giggs said no to Jose.

Wonder if its management he's after now?

Also I hear Arsenal are trying to get Wenger on a new deal to fend off the F.A! That's glorious for us but not so much for the goons

I thought there was talk about Giggs managing the Manchester United reserve team?

If Arsène manages a national team, I can't see it being any country other than France. Despite him living in England for the last two decades, he is French through and through.

It would probably be a mistake for him to manage a national team that has high expectations. He's awful under pressure, and with tournaments, all the pressure is jammed into a few weeks. He'd be a mental wreck. I can relate as I'm the same way.

This won't happen, we have Joyce who's doing an excellent job with the reserves.

Claude Puel is the new Southampton manager

Who?

 

Koeman should never have left. He has actually gone to a worse football club.

Who is he?

I can't agree BB the current Everton is a great prospect for any manager. They have a new billionaire owner and have a much bigger fan base than Southampton. I'm actually surprised it's only now someone with money has bought Everton.

Manchester United have opened discussions with Juventus over former player Paul Pogba, according to French publication, L'Equipe. £80 million the reported fee

I reckon he's massively overrated, I hope they spend that and more

He is a bit overrated but I'd love him here, think he's top quality.

Ibrahimovic confirmed he's going to United. Nothing would make me happier than to see him fail like no one has ever failed before.

Utter bellend.

Yeah hes a massive cock.

In other news, Hulk has joined Shanghai for £46M ! Money to burn...

Pogba reminds me of Toure. Sometimes he is fantastic and so hard to play against, but then he has a few stinkers.

Zlatan has finally confirmed his switch to Manchester United.

50 goals in 51 games isn't to be sniffed at. 38 in the same league we are bringing the boy from Marseille in.

I want his age to catch up with him but you just know he's going to hit the ground running.

What is it with Brazilians and Chinese football?

I know the money on offer is huge but there must be some professional ambitions they have? Seems like there is an influx of players in their 20's moving their like Ramires, Hulk, Paulinho and Teixeria. All players who have the talent to play at the highest level

He managed Lyon to the Champions League semi final a few years ago.

If Man Utd do sign Pogba, and Zlatan, then I think that they'll be the team to beat.

Yup and Nice this year and they finished 4th I think with a pretty young team ...

Hulk signs for Shanghai SIPG for Asian record £46.1m

[L'Equipe] Steve Mandanda to Crystal Palace - €2M

I doubt pogba will move this season, and unlikely it will be to utd. Madrid is a likelier destination for him. Kante is rumoured to be wanted by real.

I remember that but don't remember him but he's obviously no slouch

My prediction for Zaltan is he will be brilliant in the first 1/3 of the season, and run out of gas after January. PSG was walking towards the title in the past 2 seasons, he won't get that luxury in EPL. Jose will try to win them all, EPL or Carling cup, expect him to play the best 11 as much as possible.

Claude from ArsenalFanTV has gone missing\

I think he went missing last year too.  He obviously has "mental issues," as broad as that is.  But I think he went missing for a couple days last week, and showed up ok.

 

Hoping that it's the same this year 

Pretty active day of transfers:
