I was never up for Kerry in football before. And the very day I chose to change, they got a hiding off Shamrock Rovers.

Liverpool looking a bit dodgy all of a sudden, particularly at the back.

Missing out on Guehi could yet prove decisive.

As an Arsenal fan I won't complain with Liverpool's sudden rough patch, we will find out what Arne slot is made of now the lengthy honeymoon is over.

Erling Halaand getting City back up that table with his wonderful form, Rodri doesn't look right and needs more time I think, they will need Rodri to hit form to win the title.

There's been alot of huge signings by all the top clubs and not many have hit the ground running so far, it may be a case of whoever can get the new signings to gel first wins the title.

Alas, poor Ange! I knew him, Horatio:
a fellow of infinite jest,
of most excellent football.

Two golden handshakes in four months; he may be a crap manager, but he isn't poor.

Slot got lucky last season. He won't get as lucky this time around.

Mad to think ‘O Neil was last there 20 years ago. With six years out of the game expectations would have to be pretty low.

A statement today from Dermot Desmond the major shareholder is completly the opposite of what BR was displaying,
that they tried to negotiate a new deal,
that BR had a say on players who were sold and on players who were bought
