That Blackpool job would be too much of a stretch for him.....no chance he wouldn't mess it up and walk into the sea whilst waving his arms around....

Surely not - that would be ill-judged in the extreme.
All reports suggest he is actually a decent player. I think this has more to do with the fact that a player has been sold on a very high salary to be replaced by a player who is most likely on half that and cost less to buy. He can also play in a defensive role which means that Nat Phillips can finally leave and if he can give 2 - 3 seasons then he will have been an excellent purchase. Liverpool appear to be still looking for 2 more players (Midfielder and defender)
Did anyone else notice last night at the medal ceremony (Super Cup Final) how Jack Grealish took the time to chat to the little blind girl who was assisting Ceferin with the presentation formalities? I thought that was classy and apparently in keeping with Grealish's behaviour around disadvantaged children.
Grealish seems like a good lad all round to be honest
There is lots of examples of Jack doing work with children with additional needs. He is more than willing and very comfortable and this possibly stems from the fact that his sister has cerebral palsy. Google the video where he met the girl at the etihad. That didn’t end there. I think he invited them to a few games, paid all their expenses and they shared a box with his family. His sister and her became pals. I used to think the lad was a bit of a clown when he was at Villa but that has been quashed on too many occasions since he joined my club. Not just a very good player and unbeknown to some, a grafter who is really popular with everyone. He is actually a decent human being. As someone that works with kids I am always interested in seeing players interact (or not) with kids. Some are clearly uncomfortable, some are not interested, and others find it easy to connect. Jack is in the latter camp and always finds time for kids.
^nice perspective and lovely to hear.
New respect for Mr G - though I do wish he’d get proper socks and shin pads.
Kane off the mark

He played well. A goal and an assist on debut is a great start. He’ll score loads of goals in that league.
More trouble incoming for Man Utd.

Antony now apparently a wife (now x-wife) abuser.
Wow major let off for Liverpool with that disallowed goal.

Not so lucky this time!

Never fear, ref to the rescue
Yes soft penalty if I am being honest. Very fortunate. Diaz goal was wonderful and Mitoma’s Messiesque finish in the other game was sublime.

Not a red card for me. Wasn’t high or reckless and wasn’t studs up.
By giving Liverpool a straight red?
Harsh to say the least that red card.

Spurs making Man Utd look like prime Real Madrid.
Seriously, what does Richarlison do? Utter crap.

How the ref can see that as a red is baffling.

Maybe he was evening up the dodgy penalty
They should appeal that in my opinion.
Mitrovic off to Saudi
United can not get out. if Kane was still here Spurs would be out of sight already.

Spurs need to capitalise and get a 2nd here. Much better 2nd half performance as they are playing higher up the field.
Woodwork is MOM currently!
United are shocking!
Maddison running the show.

Hardly. Spurs were shite in the first half but fair play, you’ve been much better second half and thoroughly deserve this two goal lead.
My, what a fool you are
Welcome to Angeball
Maddison and Bissouma both looked great.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Agreed. I also thought Sarr was excellent.
Agreed.
Both showing great composure & some nice skills, but Man U have been pretty poor opponents in 2nd half.
Bring on Slab Head Maguire - he’s staying to fight for his place

As a united fan that was depressing. Fred wasn't great but he would have been better than that midfield. Mount looks like a poor lingard, rashford is not a striker and both our wingers want to cut back into traffic every time, so predictable.
How on earth do you buy a striker to replace a injured striker only for said new player to be injured
On that basis, we had better win the CL as it's the only way we will be in Europe
And this is before the greenwood shxt show begins.......

United were better with Wout Weghorst, lousy striker but god did he chase back to defend and harass.

To use the modern parlance -Foden’s touch to set up Alvarez was just plain dirty.

Agree, 'Pound Shop Saka' is playing well tonight

Absolutely filthy. What a player.
LOL - both prodigious talents, but neither are pound shop... IMHOOr 'Pound Shop Saka' to give him his proper name

I like Saka a lot but he’s no Phil Foden.
Agree Foden is levels above, though Saka is a very good player in his own right.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Absolutely zero chance that is true. Else Foden would be an England starter surely ahead of Saka.
Saka is England's best player.
I didn’t realise you smoked crack.
Saka is a good player. Foden is a good player.
Of course your statement is totally objective and nothing to do with formations, strategy etc... or maybe just tribalism.

Doubt it, neither play for Southampton
I’ll take a narrow win over our closest rivals all day
You beat Newcastle not Murray Rosen KC.
It was tight as expected but felt we could have been braver with the ball when the opportunities came.
City controlled it well enough without exerting themselves. The fact we kept your XG so low is something to take from the game.
Bruno and Miggy are poor at this level i.e. against the best, which is interesting to observe. But we were better with Wilson and Barnes who are more direct.
Game against LFC will be a fascinating contest.

Like I said
Biggest rivals .
Bruno is better than Odegaard
Tonali is better than whichever bottle merchant is Arses other midfielder .
Gordon is better than Saka and Pope is better than if Ramshackle and Rays both played together .
Of course. Also Burn is better than Saliba, Isak is better than Martinelli and Joelinton is better than Rice.
Additionally, Lucy Letby would make a fantastic babysitter.
Anyway enjoy your trophies before they are taken away from you xxx
