It was fishy as fuck.

The same squad that narrowly escaped relegation won the PL the next season, with reports of doctors admitting to doping their players and Hollywood stars having randomly made bets on them to win the PL before the season.

Obviously not all true but there was enough there to be worth investigating if anyone really wanted to.
I had a look few clubs mentioned but it seemed to fizzle out . They did have 3 premier league top notch players although beyond that the rest were pretty meh
 
Not really into cars but would definitely shift the 18 year old Vauxhall I referenced . Reality it’s 5 year old VW Tiguan but it would still get replaced
If you want a car that is just a work of art on wheels, look no further than Aston Martin. The most beautiful cars ever made IMO.

The added bonus is that you can be 60 years of age and won't look like a twat when you climb out of one of them, unlike your pasta rockets.

We are the 9th richest club in the world, however we're the 5th richest in England, and pretty much level with Chelsea. So there are at least 5 other clubs that are better funded, more established, with better players.
I'm not saying a trophy shouldn't be the target, of course it should. However to expect it in his very first season is not really a fair demand considering 'higher profile' managers have tried and failed.

Without going back through the history books, our most celebrated managers in recent times hadn't won a great deal. What had Poch won? Harry won the FA cup if I recall but he'd been managing for a long time before that happened.
We've been there and done that with serial winners......Mourinho, Conte, Ange....I don't remember anyone demanding Ange win a trophy in his first season.

From everything I seen and read, it seems Frank is an excellent man manager, something we desperately need because we have that really soft underbelly that desperately needs to be fixed.
Semantics but if we are 5th richest there can only be 4 richer than us, no?

I think you're preparing yourself for failure to make yourself feel better when Frank fails to build on that night in Bilbao. If a halfwit like Ange can do it then a tactical mastermind with philosophy and pragmatism and excellent man management skills should be able to easily win something.
 
Watch the interview where Linekar cooks him dinner. He describes being a football manager like being a chef in a top restaurant. Basically the chef has the artistic nous and skill to come up with the recipe for a successful dish, he then sends people out to find the best ingredients they can and then he gets his sous-chefs to expertly prepare those ingredients to make the final dish.

Hopefully he gave Lineker food poisoning?
