    Any idea why Mou is still at the helm over there? Very uncharacteristic of Abramovic to let such suckage reach such levels.

    Mourinho just got a contract extension over the summer. Four years. It would cost the Russian millions to let him go.

    I think McHale can do a better job at this point in managing that team.


    And how is Lester not getting any talk. They're performing way beyond expectation. Mahrez is a friggin beast and Vardy just broke is streak :(

    Mahrez is making us Algerians so damn proud, his level of play has reached new heights this year and Leicester City along with Jamie Vardy are feeling the effects. #1 team in the EPL and top 2 goal scorers so far. There is a feeling that this won't sustain because of sub-par defense and no wins against big teams yet but extremely impressive nonetheless. Next 4 tests in December will reveal alot about this team.. Now..will next weekends date with Chelsea count as facing a big team? :grin:

    I think Leicester stole Chelsea's talent. They're the Premier League Monstars. Chelsea have to beat them next week to get their talent back.

    Will be interesting to see where Leicester ends up and whether they can keep Mahrez and Vardy for the next years. Would be sad to see these two guys leave for big money and Leicester going down the drain again.

    Vardy will probably get picked up by one of the Manchester teams. Most likely United, to which he'll regress exponentially. Then probably end up in some random team like Stoke or Sunderland.

    I hope Mahrez can come to LFC. I truly believe Mahrez has a bigger effect on his team than Vardy.

    So I'm a closet Chelsea fan, but even I have to laugh at what's going on over there. Part of me really wants to see how bad it can possibly get. It just sucks that my favorite player (Eden Hazard) has to be suffering with them.

    So do or die for United.

    Better win away after quite a few 0-0 draws. No easy task defeating Wolfsburg in Germany. A draw maybe enough if PSV draw or lose at home to CSKA but that is unlikely

    Not really, lulz.
    But there'll be CL this week, Wolfsburg could eliminate ManU, so that will be interesting. ManU is in bad shape right now, Wolfsburg could win this.

    Yah i know it has so much potential but it's an effing joke right now.. Intercontinental cup was more exciting back then, i remember seen some epic games with Boca Juniors in the early 2000s.. Good times.
    Anywho, here's to Barca winning it this time.

    Umm Idk, first time in about 10 years I'm not really following ECL. It seems it has some spark to me, seems to be we need more competition (always barca , Bayern, Chelsea and Madrid). Or maybe I'm just busy lately.

    The only certainty today is that Man City will allow at least 1 goal.

    This is intense. United losing 2-1 but CSKA just scored a penalty against PSV so if things stay as is United still go through

    And PSV equalize so United out if things stand

    English teams are truly abysmal right now.
