    For all the money city spends, you would think they would have hired a hitman to take Navas out by now.

    He has been total trash everytime I have watched him play.

    He is complete bollocks. Glad City was able to survive yesterday thanks to Joe Hart. Having to start Otamendi and DeMichelis in the back is a rough ordeal. Hopefully Komp and Mangala are back soon.

    What's the deal with Kompany and when is he expected back?

    I think it was just a calf injury. Not supposed to be serious.

    So now rumors are Klopp might also take over Arsenal? I hope not.

    LFC needs Klopp more. Arsenal is fine with Wenger and their guaranteed CL spot every year.

    If Klopp signs with a PL team and then shortly after LFC fires Rodgers, I would stop following LFC for the rest of the season.

    I think Liverpool and Arsenal make the most sense, he's a fan of both teams and would have youngsters to work with. Also not expected to win the league from the start.
    Only a matter of which coach gets fired first imo.

    Sure hope so. I just want him off the market. He is not a coach for Bayern.

    True. Not sure about Favre now, he seems to be really stubborn and seems to leave teams on a bad note.

    Maybe Pep stays, he's an okay solution now with the team formed for him.

    Arsenal have been the best attacking team in the Prem, but the numbers didn't show it until last week. I think that game will turn into a counter puncher's attack and Arsenal find a late goal to nick a 3-2 win.

    Ahhh it seems they're negotiating but Pep taking his sweet ass time..

    "I am optimistic about Pep's renewal," Rummenigge told Bild. "We have a great offer on the table, which you cannot just shove aside.

    "We have a first-class team, a fantastic club, a great stadium and a wonderful city to offer.

    "We will have a serious conversation with Pep in the upcoming weeks and we will see what comes from that.

    "I want to win the Champions League again - with Guardiola in charge."

    The problem is they've been saying this "talks in the upcoming months" for over a year now and Pep never wants to talk. Seems weird.

    Is Frank de Boer a good manager? He just popped out of nowhere for the LFC top boss.
