Seems a little unfair, considering he took them into Europe on the back of a very good season last year. I don't wish bad for them, especially as Chris Wood plays for them. But it's always dangerous when an owner starts thinking he knows more about football than the football people trying to run his club

It would appear so. Terms agreed
-
Ange is the new Forest boss:
-
Maybe it's a Greek thing? Maranakis wanted someone who understands him? Well this will certainly make for improved content during the season
-
Fairly predictable weekend of results. Liverpool win yet again late in a game (and Burnley lose again with a penalty after 90 minutes). Amorim looks more like a dead man walking as City win 3-0. Arsenal dispose of Ange's Forest fairly easily and Bournemouth win again to cement their place in the top 4 @bayimports

but, but Marinakis has nothing to do with the running of the club.
Just ask UEFA - and Palace

started our 18 year old CB as well, he is a monster and did better than was expecting.
Interestingly the the latest fixtures between us and the seagulls has a 2-1 result, thankfully we were finally on the right side of one!

Not sure how Harry Kane scores 44 odd goals in the season for Bayern (98 in 103 games at this point) and finishes below Cole Palmer. Joke of an award

Well it is just the opinions of multiple people - Bundesliga standard is pretty low for defending these days and Bayern get a lot of penalties - Kane got 9 in the league last season. Maybe if Bayern had got further in the UCL. Same for Salah, needed Liverpool to knock out PSG as they had 5 of the top 10.

Potter was a massive meme on x there was a significant amount of roasting but yeah i think their problems run deeper
-
Potter is goneburger at West Ham and Nuno in. Sounds like the problems at that club are deeper than just the manager and it will be interesting to see if Nuno can Nuno them

Nuno's quite pragmatic. He's obviously just not that exciting, because why else would be get chopped from NF?
