The PL is mental this year - everyone from Crystal Palace (12th) down could get relegated. 9 teams are involved in a relegation battle in March.

very exciting to watch. Southampton comeback today was good to see. 

Palace sacked Vieira yesterday but seems to have no one lined up to come in. Seems like they were problems with recruitment and the standard of quality of Vieira's coaching staff

Conte is a loose canon, short quite a few cannonballs.

Any PL club taking him on is begging for trouble.

He is so far up his own arse he hasn't seen reality for years 

Football managers answer to Trump.

His interview suggests he wants to be.

Exactly. I seen the interview this morning on Match of the Day.

A very good player in his day though.

Conte was a very good midfielder and he was part of the Juventus team I used to watch and follow when Channel 4 had Italian football. Players like Ferrari, Del Pirlo, Deschamps, Vialli and Ravanelli

Wondering if Conte has a severance clause?  Could be that sacking him at any point triggers a decent payout and from his perspective why not try and make it happen…

I said that there is a clause that releasing his contract at the end of the season for a very low fee.

I’m just being cheeky here - but how are you certain that Conte has a clause in his contract but Morton doesn’t?

Just read the Conte comments, and he's not wrong. The owners are more interested in making money and there is a culture of 'As long as we play nice football, and get in the top four that's OK' about the club. There is no hunger for trophies and titles like Man Utd under Ferguson, Mourinho's Chelsea or Pep's Man City. The likes of Kane and Son are happy being in such a team, and have not had that ambition and ruthlessness to simply turn down a new contract and leave for a genuine top club.

He isn’t wrong, but he’s said it in public for a reason…

Conte is at fault for the club performances and tactics. His tactics at 3-1 up was to sit back and allow Southampton back into the game. He rested Kane for Sheffield United cup game which they lost. 

Conte has been backed by Levy and the owner Lewis but Conte has failed to deliver on the pitch.

Rashford pulls out of England squad shock. Its funny when it's tournament time every player is fit and available.  As soon as he finds form he's back to putting club before  country.  Forgetting it was the world cup that gave him his confidence again. If it was a friendly I wouldn't be arsed bit this is our toughest qualifier.  I suppose foden will have to fill in

He barely played at the World Cup. It is little wonder in such a packed schedule when players are playing so many games that qualifiers (we all know we will qualify) are deemed to be of the least importance, with such an important end to the season to come at club level.

Mount is out of the squad, I bet Southgate still won’t pick Foden….

If we are worried about Ukraine then we may aswell not bother anyway. These games do not carry the importance of the Premier League run in, the FA Cup semi finals or the Europa League quarter finals.
