    Sounds like they are talking to Nuno Espirito Santo. He did well at Wolves, not so well at Spurs

      But doing slightly better this morning by knocking out one of the financial fiddlers on penalties in the League Cup - Congrats!

        Following it on BBC sounded like a bloody dire game but I'll take it First Cup semi-Final since the Europa League 12 years ago.

          It's a big risk - on paper he performed wonders at Wolves but the squad he had was star studded, full of Portuguese internationals and they still had a very conservative style of play.

            Yep - I really don't see Nuno as an upgrade on Cooper.

            Whoever comes in has to improve the team from Day 1 or the terraces will quickly turn ugly.

              If they want to try and stay up they might have to give Big Sam a call

                Watching the penalty shootout Pickford looked so close to getting a hand on many of those attempts. It doesn't matter how they go in though. Listen to the Everton fan before the last penalty. 🤣

                  Pickford moves off his line for almost every kick though Most glaringly for his save

                    4 consecutive away wins in the prem for the first time ever, we bow down to our Spanish overlord! Couple of beautiful headers from Dom today as well, great win. The second yellow for Forest was a dismal decision, but we have had our share of howlers this year.

                    Thought the Luton affair and sacked manager from Forest might take the wind out of our sails, but we’re still going

                      Liverpool-Arsenal was a good game - intense. A draw was a fair result I thought even though TAA hit the crossbar. Zinchenko remains a defensive liability. It's very close at the top of the table.

                        Spurs start strong but Everton win the second half, Tottenham winning out on the back of some brilliant goalkeeping by Vicario. He really has been a find after the disappointment of failing to sign Raya. Considering the injuries and suspensions, Ange has performed a minor miracle to see us into the top four at Xmas

                              It’s quite interesting at the bottom of the table. I don’t see Sheffield United staying up but the others aren’t out of yet.

                                @Billy-Tell

                                Despite beating Fulham I don't fancy Burnley's chances. Kompany seems too stubborn to change his tactics. They look like Norwich v2.1. Storm to Championship title and then leak goals at the top level. They'll pick up the odd win but as on Saturday that's more because the opposition fail to front as opposed to any real spark of their own.

                                Luton do seem to have something. Playing half their games at Kenilworth Road helps.

                                Who is going to replace one of the relegated teams in the bottom 3? I would have said Forest was most likely but they have definitely got a new/old manager bounce from Wilder.

                                    Ten Hag must be the next manager to get the chop, surely. Already down 0-2 at home vs villa.

                                      @Billy-Tell What would changing the Manager actually achieve? It's not as if they haven't (repeatedly) played that card.

                                      Would they really be any worse if they'd kept faith with David bloody Moyes?

                                          Fulham dispatched, unbeaten in seven including 6 wins, even first penalty in 600 days. Things are turning around. If I thought we would be tenth by end of Boxing Day I would have laughed.

                                          Spurs and Liverpool coming up so games should get harder (not meaning any disrespect to Fulham) but at least we will go in with confidence and a fit again Alex Scott.

                                          Hopefully we won’t lose too many in Jan window with a few of the big clubs sniffing around. Cook looks most likely only one who might go, but you never know
