Great idea! Perhaps we can get Bale in January to sort out our lack of goals. And whilst we're at it make a cheeky bid for Salah ...

It’s hogwash like this as to why I don’t come on these boards that much anymore. Stick to Championship Manager.

"Look at that. Accident blackspot? These aren't accidents! They're throwing themselves into the road gladly! Throwing themselves into the road to escape all this hideousness!"

Our second-best manager of all time (after Coppell) came here as a player near the end of his career, was then recruited to act as assistant to a much older and more experienced manager, and eventually took over the reigns and led the club through a very successful period in its history.
I refer, of course, to El Tel, recruited from Chelsea by Big Mal.
I wonder whether, say, Gary Cahill has any thoughts about pursuing a future managerial career?
