Now come on nobody deserves to manage Villa. Look at poor Lambert he's even regained his vision since he left!

Sacked, mutual consent, resignation, etc no matter what he was a dead man walking.

Looking at Villa's new board/advisor appointments it does appear they could be beginning to get a few things right. Of course that won't bring much immediate comfort to their fans given their impending relegation.

Rumors of Pearson/Dyche at the moment. LOL at people saying Dyche wouldn't go there. Who in their right mind would turn Aston Villa down in favor of friggin "name marketers dream" Burnley?

Even if they switch places Dyche would be nuts not to go there. Unless he's thinks he can do better than Villa and would rather wait. They are being linked to Steve Bruce as well haven't Villa fans suffered enough? :lol:

Why the obsession with Burnley's name being unmarketable? Doubt Dyche is bothered! If he did move, that would be the last thing he'd think about.

Well I would certainly be bothered. Its a toss up between them and Barnsley for most boring name in Football League probably. Wouldn't be able to play, manage or own either of them would be too busy falling asleep. Not saying people should only buy Premier League clubs. Buy a league 2 side perhaps but at least pick one with a decent name!

Unmarketable has to be understatement of century. Generally I would never be an advocate of a team changing their name (though Swansea did and perhaps Ipswich should one day for same reason) but those 2 should at least add "clarets" or "tykes" or whatever. I'm sure some of you would suggest something less flattering for one of them.

No wonder nobody tried to buy Burnley in the EPL.

What a cracking game of football that was. I hate to say it but that is some Spurs side Pocchetino has assembled there.

The thing I love most about Pochettino and this Spurs team is he's mainly worked with the player that were at the club when he arrived.

From todays starting line-up & players were there when he arrived.

Lloris

Kyle Walker

Rose

Dier

Dembele

Eriksen

Kane

From those 7 he's turned Rose and Walker into cracking full backs. Dier from a centre half into the best holding mid in the prem and took Kane from the youth team...

From the other 4 starters, today, that he's brough in;

Wimmer - only really playing till Vertonghan is back

Alli - Prob an England regular from now on?

Son Heung Min

Aldewiereld

He's done an amazing job at spurs, hope he stays there and finishes what he's starting building. He's giving lots of young English lads a chance and playing great football whilst doing it. If Leicester don't win the title this year I'd love Spurs to do it.

Southampton will be a very stern test for Leicester today. In many ways the Title decider after Spurs dropped two points at Liverpool. Cannot see them letting a seven point lead go.

West Ham and Stoke did their European charges big damage yesterday.

  • Moderation Lead

I've been in Newcastle on a stag do this weekend, watched their game against Norwich and when Norwich kept going back in the lead I thought they'd need to ring the Samaritans en masse. I've never liked them as a club but I must admit I felt bad for them at that point. Must have been the booze....

LEICESTER

Sunderland (A)

West ham (H)

Swansea (H)

Man Utd (A)

Everton (H)

Chelsea (A)

3 wins enough ?

Some tough games there, the only teams with nothing really to play for being Swansea, Everton and Chelsea- but you wouldn't want to go to Chelsea needing anything.
