He seems to lift the whole team just by being there on the pitch.

Just love the way he takes the initiative to move the ball forward. Whether it’s an extra 5 or 10m after turning his man or playing straight balls up the channels it has become so clear after he’s come back that he makes opportunities instead of waiting for them to appear.

Tomorrow's football gossip page on the BBC website is claiming that Meatball is a target for Everton. This claim is via the paragon of non-made-up stories that is Football Insider.

Didn’t Everton go for him last summer and we flatly turned it down? Seems a recycled story.

John McGinn is basically Viagra for David Moyes. I don't blame him, but even Viagra will meet its match with that face. He looks like an abandoned prototype of cling film.

I read a lovely rumour on that BBC gossip page last week that Sunderland will sack their manager if he didnt give them european football.

The original source of that particular rumour seems to spend a lot of it's time telling the world how Morgan Rogers is off to Chelsea/Manchester United/Melchester Rovers. Anyway, the Le Bris story was a bridge too far so I blocked them on Twitter, safe in the knowledge that they're just Caught Offside on acid.

It would seem to be an odd decision - but broad consensus was that Bournemouth shouldn't have binned Gary O'Neil after he saved them from relegation, only for Iraola to be really good as his replacement.

Going back further, it was A Terrible Decision for mid-table Southampton to sack Nigel Adkins just to bring in Mauricio Pochettino.

Guess it would depend on who comes in next.

Yeah, but it supposed to be the bright young European manager that comes in, not gets shoved out. Would be funny if they binned him to give the job to Dyche.

Nothing is more obvious than McGinn having 2 maybe 3 more years with us then getting a free transfer to Celtic or Hibs.
