I'd pick on John O'Shea though, he's got girly lips.

Would you make him squeal like a pig?

I wonder if lambert has had any say in this or if Faulkner / Lerner are just trying to piss him off so much he will walk.

I wonder  will he think of Tonev and Sylla .    ' I know we are mates Paul , but why oh why '

And Joe Bennett , whats he going to think of him.

Probably the same as we do.

I don't care if he hasn't got the relevant coaching badges.  Did the last two incumbents have them? if they did, not an awful lot of good came from them did it?  Roy Keane will know how to organize a midfield.  In our current predicament I can't think of anyone better available who could organize our midfield.  I bet he also has ideas on throw-ins, like, how to take them, how to keep the ball and not give it straight away to the opposition and the like.  If he can sort out just those two areas we will improve immensely.

I don't mind Baker too much but that did make me chuckle.

Maybe Keane should have intimidated Fletcher and O'Shea a bit more because they both emerged well from their experience decidedly average footballers. Another year or so and maybe they'd have become decent.

To be fair, you could insert pretty much any first team player name in there and it would still work.

I don't think there's a football trainer on the planet who could make our players understand throw ins.

That picture and another one I saw when he had a brilliant beard, has made me change my mind.

I'm all for his appointment.

Just the 5 premier league titles for O'Shea. And a Champs League and 3 League cups and and FA cup

Ha ha ha, that is absolutely brilliant. Am actually in tears of laughter at that.

What a great summer this is shaping up to be. We're a bit of a broken mess, but it's at least interesting and very funny at times.
