I wouldn’t be surprised if they gave it to Redknapp until the end of the season.

His is a name which keeps being brought up. He’s 79 years of age and last managed in the Premier League fourteen years ago.

It would be like Ferguson being appointed when Amorim was sacked. And that was never going to happen.
 
Giggled when I saw the City score… None 🤣 . Chelsea doing well in Paris but we also could lose 5-1 here.

I was close. Frankly beyond description that we lost 5-2.

PSG had 0.87xG and scored 5 goals. The keeper is a complete shambles but the coach should never be putting him in that position by asking him to play that way, especially 2-2 away at the European champions, whilst on top in the match. It’s unbelievable.

Chelsea seemed to have struggled at the number 1 position for a few years
 
The confusion of the CL:

Newcastle lie 12th in the PL. They comfortably beat PSG in qualifying, who are top of Ligue 1 and spanked Chelsea last night. They were within seconds of a well deserved win over Barcelona, currently top of La Liga, 4 points clear of Real Madrid who spanked Man City last night 😵‍💫.

I'm not sure I'm any wiser about who is the best out there. Perhaps Bayern should win this year and we can all just sit back and agree on them being the best team 😄

I think it goes to show the whilst the EPL might not be the best league that it's been hyped up to be it's easily the most competitive. PSG, Barca, Real and Bayern probably have no more than 6-8 really competitive games a season, the rest are against sides they'd expect to beat 99 times out of 100. In the EPL the depth is considerably stronger and there aren't really any proper whipping teams bar Spurs. If you dropped Newcastle into the German league they'd probably be 2/3rd at worst most seasons. If you stuck Bayern (for example) into the EPL they'd find life a lot tougher IMO.
