I think that if Manchester United doesn't win the game tomorrow Mourinho should be the first to resign or if he doesn't do that he should be fired by the club.

I think Arsenal is going to win tomorrow and with a goal difference of more than one goal. If they repeat the gameplay they did against Tottenham they will win against Manchester United too and with goals difference.

He’s not going to resign, he’ll wait for them to sack him because if he resigns he won’t get a contract pay off.
Man Utd will probably have to pay him a few million pounds to terminate his contract so he’ll wait for them to pull the trigger.

They might wait to sack him when they get knocked out of the CL. Until then they still have a big trophy to fight for.

Mou seems to be like the kind of guy who's too proud to admit defeat so I doubt he'll resign. And Man Utd haven't found a replacement for him so there's no chance they'll sack him right in the middle of the season (or especially in December, the busiest part of the calendar for english clubs), and like @tokeweed said, he got the team in the KO stages of the CL so he's not doing that bad.

^  They can't let Mou go now either way.  United is in the KO stages and Mou is their best chance they've got if the wanna progress further in the tourney.

Btw Southampton is going after Ralph Hassenhutl to be its next manager after sacking Mark Hughes.  Should be good if they get him.  That's another decent manager in the EPL.

Ashamed to say I had no idea about that name before you mentioned it, even if I'm familiar with the Red Bull teams performances recently. Austrian coach with Bundesliga credentials, definitely can't go wrong there but it's hard not to improve over Hughes, with all respect due. Saints deserve something better, and while I normally blame players as a team, guys like Hughes are outdated in the Premier League.

Is no one backing Watford tonight for over 11/1? There's also a less bold 2/1 +1.5 handicap. I know, Sterling's on form and de Bruyne's back from injury, but I'm hoping against all hope Watford take a page out of Wolves' courage against City. Just go at them, you're at home. And guys like Sterling and Sane, they're actually quite susceptible to home crowds who're on their back.

I would usually feel confident to place my bet on West Ham to beat Cardiff City in full time for the upcoming match today in the English Premier League, but Cardiff City seems to be picking up more points recently as they have managed to win 2 matches out of 3 matches played, and Cardiff City would surely need to gain more points in order to stay clear from the relegation zone when they are travelling away from home, I think they might try to force a draw in full time against West Ham today.

The Gunners chose well with Unai Emery if you think about it.  Even if they don't get CL football, they could still win the Europa League...  Emery won it for three years straight with Sevilla.
I think the new manager of Arsenal Unai Emery should focus more to guide Arsenal and qualify for the Uefa Champions League next season, Arsenal have beaten Tottenham today with the scoreline of 4-2 and I believe the squad of Arsenal at the moment definitely have the qualities to challenge for a spot to become the top 4 teams on the English Premier League table at the end of this season.

Yup...  And am I the only one slightly shocked to see how actually better the Gunners are vs the Spurs?  I had the game at 1 - 2 for Tottenham to win at our betting pool.

Can't wait for the reverse fixture.  Grin

So derby day is over, not a bad way to spend 6 hours watching some good football. The Chelsea vs Fulham was probably the least exciting of the three, feels like that 1st goal in the 4' min killed the game, Fulham had a pretty straighforward gameplan which was defend the draw, once Chelsea scored, Fulham didn't know what to do to change the course of the game.

Arsenal vs Tottenham, pretty good first half from Spurs, awful second half, but props to Emery for knowing what should be done in the 2nd half: exploit Tottenham's biggest weakness, the midfield. Once Ramsey was on the pitch, the team felt more fluid, Torreira was able to provide a more defensive role, Auba and Lacazette playing out wide allowed the Gunners to have more options on the attack, and Ramsey provided the creative football that they were missing with Iwobi on the pitch. Masterclass from Emery.

Liverpool vs Everton, the Toffees deserved a lot more, what a performance, but seriously, how do you concede such a goal? was it pure luck? is Pickford too fucking short? or was it all calculated (Allison to Arnold, long ball, a header from VVD, hit the crossbar as intended, and then Origi scores the goal lol)?

I know, I'm still feeling the buzz! But you really couldn't write the script for last night, not in a thousand games. I know it's only a Merseyside derby but surely every neutral would have loved that we kept within touching distance of bleeding City. I know I may have said it too many times, but seeing Liverpool scrape by so often and still playing far below their best, gives me a lot of hope for when they do come out of their rut. City are top but they're playing fluidly and we all know teams can't possibly play at the same level all season. Two-thirds of the league to go, plenty of time yet for the Reds to find their mojo.

@LFCBitcoin: If this doesn't give Pool the buzz they need for Napoli, I don't know what will!

gunners going nuts....

good game to watch

looking forward for that other derby....

Chose the wrong match to bet on. Thought the Chelsea game would be tight, but they were just 1 corner short for me to get my first leg under the belt, whereas we've now got 12 corners on the Arsenal Spurs game AND 6 goals with 10 mins to go. Knew they'd be very open but I wrongly predicted they'd cancel each other out for a game with few shots on targets and corners. 4-2 and they're heading to run this out on fumes, what a derby so far!

Hopefully the goals flow as much for the merseyside derby. I hope they show us a bit of the "old" gungho Reds but I'd prefer a clean sheet and a couple of goals for our forwards. Do miss seeing my team getting out of 2nd gear though!

i expect a few goals indeed how the game is rolling so far.... the teams do not give each other anything at the moment

^  It's 1 - 2 now for the Spurs.  And I hope it holds so I could get more points in the betting pool.  Grin

I think United's board isn't concerned about the spending...  It could be more like who they're spending it on that's holding them back.  They prolly learned their lesson from the Sanchez transfer.  Lol.

Edit:  2 - 2 heh.

I'm not sure Mourinho will last until next year.
Nah, the Man Utd board is too incompetent to find a proper replacement for Mou, either that or they're satisfied with how team is performing in the CL...but the match ended 2-2 so they'll keep Mou around a bit longer.

Looking forward to the derbys tomorrow, 6 straight hours of pure entertainment.

I was baffled with the defensive line up Mourinho sent out to play against Saints, a team that is struggling to win. I know he's trying to send a message to the board get me a central defender, but honestly they should sack him now, I feel he's crossed all lines now. These are my thoughts exactly the boardroom only understands money, and by qualifying for champions league next round he's got their kitty richer. However I hope the fans backlash makes them understand, that Mourinho needs to leave he's destroying the club piece by piece.

Nope.  Not until the end of the season imho.  Giving him the sack him now is gonna be like digging themselves further down the rut they're in.

United prolly should accept they suck, get rid of 'old guard', get a young manager with a fresh perspective in.  I like Eddie Howe.
Many news circulated that MU bosses did not comply with the transfer submitted by Mou. Currently MU will be more concerned with money than achievement. By the way Arsenal temporarily won 1-0 over the Spurs with an Aubameyang penalty.
