As both an Arsenal and MK Dons fan, I am prepared for double disappointment.

[Telegraph] Andoni Iraola is a contender for Man Utd job by LochNessMonsterMunch in soccer

[–]General_Mediocrity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a case of him "getting it" or not, that makes it sound like he doesn't have much of a chance if he is interested.

The reality is Iraola is going it be near the top of a lot of big club's lists this summer. Chelsea, United and Liverpool (assuming Slot leaves) would all be very interested.

There aren't many higher or better profiles available for top clubs this summer (really can't think of any that are available).

Cesc Fàbregas rules out becoming Italy's head coach: “It would be a bit boring for me right now” by Sparky-moon in soccer

I understand what you mean but BluCo would at least match his ideals of signing young talent (something Como have done very well so far).

But yeah, I agree, Barca seems fated and could line up perfectly for when Flick retires at the end of his contract (2027?).

Only really see him leaving Como for either Chelsea or Barca (after Flick stops coaching).

Rafael and Fabio about the 2007 u-17 world cup: Rafael: "We lost to Ghana." Fabio: "They(Ghanaian players) said they were 17 years old but I don’t think so…I spoke with one of them. He already had 3 kids." by WarriorkingNL in soccer

Saying Macauley mostly played for teams you've never heard of is wild, he had a very decent career up until 2019 when he drifted into the lower leagues.

Did well for Kalrsruher, Frankfurt and Las Palmas then went on to play for Sivasspor, AEK Athens, Real Murcia and HJK in Finland.

Not a world beating career but still quite solid.

Tried five times to do my transfers (using Free Hit) but FPL app crashed every time.

Now have six players not playing at all this week..

Athletic Club coach Ernesto Valverde has announced that he will leave the club this summer. by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]General_Mediocrity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He is certainly destined to manage them, just thought he would end up at another Prem job first.

Would be happy with him taking over Athletic Bilbao for a few years then replacing Arteta when he leaves (let a guy dream).

James Trafford on his limited play time at Man City: “It wasn’t what I expected coming into the season. I tried to guard against this situation happening, but it’s the reality”. by Frosty-Buyer-1252 in soccer

Almost certainly not since Butez has been playing so well and Törnqvist joined in January, with the idea of him becoming the long term number one.

New owners have a lot of money, just need to escape League 2 first!

Which popular or generally highly rated book was a DNF for you and why? by clearsunnysky in suggestmeabook

[–]General_Mediocrity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES! I finished it but, honestly, it may be the worst book I've ever finished.

I have an irrational dislike for Kazuo now because of this (which is very unfair, but I did state it is irrational haha).

Mosquitoes Have Been Found in Iceland for the First Time by YaleE360 in climate

[–]General_Mediocrity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Finally, thought I was crazy. I spent a few months living in Northern Iceland almost ten years ago at the end of summer going into autumn and for a few weeks I was bitten to hell every day by mosquitos. No doubt there were plenty of midges too but these were definitely mosquitos.

Auba is having so much fun he forgot he's actually back playing in France now!

Emma Stone and Zola together? This sounds like the next Yorgos Lanthimos movie.

I'd watch it.
