Mourinho looked like a man who had just come home from a 4 day bender in his post match interview.

Is Luca Toni still playing? Think he got tied first place in goals like 1-2 years ago as 38yo if I remember correctly.

There are 2 very good managers without a job at the moment. Hopefully Roman doesn't beat FSG to the punch.

Maybe sub Ings on in the 2nd half to make it 5-0.

Re: English Football 2015-16
Have wanted Rodgers out since his first interview as Liverpool manager. "death by football" ... "most teams play with 10 footballers and a goalkeeper, I use 11 footballers"
**** off.

Re: English Football 2015-16
I want to see jonjo score vs pool to knock them out of contention for something then celebrate the goal by taking an envelope out of his sock opening it and revealing Rogers name.
