Is Everton a step Dyche would consider I wonder...

He would absolutely consider and take I'd imagine but can't see Everton making that choice.

Everton fan (or journo I’m not sure) is close to tears on talksport. He made a good point though “Everton, we are the team that just can’t have nice things” haha 

Genuinely baffles me how a club can chuck that much money into the pitch activities and still sit mid table.

Sky reporting Nuno favourite with Palace? Surely that's a big step down from Wolves?

Thought he left Wolves because he missed his wife and family back in Portugal?

Mind you, after a few weeks maybe he misses the single life again....

I completely agree, it just felt like it could be an eminently sensible move for all parties (Excluding Burnley obviously) but suspect Everton management or fans would not see this as a tolerable option

Wolves fans seem to think he was sacked but they just worded the statement kindly to appear more amicable.

 

Would be a great appointment from Palaces point of view i think.

There’s lots of rumours about bad stuff happening behind the scenes at Everton. Over spending, having to take out big loans to cover losses. Investigations into over spending. I think Carlo has jumped before things went bad and Everton were happy to see him go as they couldn’t afford him.

Things must have been bad if he's jumped ship to go to Madrid. He's managed the big clubs (including Real) before, so it's not as if it's the once in the lifetime opportunity. And if he flops in Madrid he'd be sacked as quick as any other manager. Maybe he just prefers a sunnier climate?

Great appointment for Palace, but you'd question it from Nuno's point of view. Especially with Everton now being available.

May as well have not bothered. £22,500 is literal pennies to the clubs. 

 

At this point could be better scraping this stupid fine system and having a penalty points system, similar to F1 drivers have, and each time the club breaks an FA rule they receive a number of penalty points that accumulate and lead to harsher punishments.

22k because there was a bit of pushing around.  

[StanSP]

We should send the bill to Antonio Rudiger for starting it all.

So we're getting the same punishment as the greedy six will get. A fine (If they even get that).

 

Bravo.

He was linked when Silva went there and let's just say their fans weren't impressed at the thought!

Eddie Howe will go to Everton. Boyhood fan, chance to take them to Europe, money to spend, set up perfectly for him.

Hahahahaa Nuno would be a match made in heaven for that turgid squad. He'd possibly do alright but it would be vulgar to watch.

There has been an unusual amount of managerial changes this end of season hasn't there? 

 

 

I think it’s more the case that last season was the unusual pattern - where every club went into the season with the same manager they had at the end of the previous one.

Why is there a lure of Merseyside for him? He went there to manage Liverpool, not admire the place.

 

Plus being ex-Liverpool he'd need to be near-on perfect or the fans will turn.

45k for a bit of pushing and shoving. Must be a big Christmas party this year.

[NasPb]

How much has chelsea been fined for repeated racism over their whole history? 

 

And the Bulgarian fa?

I assumed you were implying we should buy Phil Foden cos he's best on the right wing? 

Haha no, it was being discussed which wing he has played most on so I was just showing he’d mainly been playing on the left this season
