Everton have had talks with both Nuno Santo and Eddie Howe already apparently.
The reality is as a manager that you simply don't want to be the last person standing when the game of musical chairs finishes.

Comte reportedly in advanced talks with Tottenham.
This sounds like the Mourinho appointment - a proven winner etc etc. Conte is good for a season it appears and by then he's pissed everyone off and pisses off. If Inter didn't give you enough to spend, welcome to Levy and Tottenham.

I'm not sure he is the guy we should be getting. The way Levy operates, we need a guy who is comfy developing young players and surviving on a budget

He sounds similar to Jose in his pomp. He was more subdued this time, probably due to his failures at Chelsea and ManU

Conte is also very demanding on the players.
Good. Our players need a kick up the arse. Son and Kane had statistically amazing seasons, if the others had pulled their collective finger out we could have made top 4
Euros 2020 (2021). I'm running a picking competition and Ferners who should be getting an email out it soon are

as you entered before, contact me if you have a different email address from 3 years ago.
For anyone else that wants to enter, PM me an email address ASAP and I will add you to the list - I will be sending out the details on how to enter this weekend.
And the English domestic season rumbles on. The playoffs for the National League started today and Notts County magnificently triumphed over Chesterfield 3-2 and will play Torquay next weekend for a place in the playoff final. Early game to avoid clashing with the Euros!

Amazing story and good on him. I did not realise that MK Dons were the renamed relocated Wimbledon FC. Vinny Jones would approve!!!
@canefan vinnie famously hates mk dons like the rest of us, they are the legal entity that use to be Wimbledon and nothing else, he actually donated his fa cup winners medal to afc Wimbledon
@Bovidae I have now cheers, proud to sponsor some of his kit, consensus in the fans is he’s our number 1 next season,
his next problem is we have an England age grade keeper coming through , matt Cox, so might feel some pressure in a season or two, assuming we don’t sell him like the last could of young keepers we’ve developed
@mackerzzzz said in EPL 2020/2021:
I know Erling Halland has been touted about for most big clubs, but shit if he went to the most likley team (Chelsea) imagine how good their team would be... Halland, Haverts, Pullisic, Mount, Kante, Werner, Chillwell, Azpillcueta, Thiago Silva, Rudiger, etc etc
Ziyech as well....

Unbelievable Jeff!
At the very, very bottom of the EFL, after 96 years in and four years away, the team that once beat Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United 6 - 0 has returned to League 2.
And somewhere, Jeff Stelling is having a brilliant night after a nail biting game

It sounded like a real thriller but I had lost interest when we went out to Torquay in the semis when I'm sure all their goals were either offside or handled. A few scandals in the league this season where certain clubs furloughed some of their players and then bought new ones to replace them! Clubs mentioned were Chesterfield, Stockport and Barrow so at least it seems like Hartlepool were clean.
Which of course reminds me of the day that Hartley and Poole scored for Hartlepool
