RIP Sarri and Kepa.


Don't know who will have it worse.

I feel for Sarri.

It was a psych move subbing on Willy, just to have a mental advantage but Kepa totally sabotaged that and didn't save Aguero's bad kick. His merits and flaws have been listed over and over, but I can see why he is struggling seeing how toxic the situation is. Only David Luiz half-assed walked over and told Kepa to respect manager's decision, their captain and rest of the players just watched. Sarri also had to be diplomatic in front of the public eye, he would probably get canned if he made too big of a stink.

But I think Kepa unknowingly shifted the public opinion in favor of Sarri.

yeah i remember montoleader and abate led a rebellion against Seedorf :proud:

Worst part was that we were pretty decent under Dorf.

Fucking montoleader.......

Strange how chelsea is slowly becoming like Milan in the final years of Berlu.

Seedorf was hired because Galliani was following dumb orders given by Silvio.

Seedorf was fired because he wasn't following dumb orders given by Silvio.

He got out the same way he got in. No reason for him to be bitter.

He also lacked tact and humility.


As for Montoleader, R&B gave him more Top 3 points than De Jong during Seedorf's spell. The same R&B that were worshiping De Jong at the time - mainly for his supposedly great performances earlier in that season, which didn't amount to anything. You probably believe in the common myth that Seedorf benched Monto, and this was how he turned around the team. But none of it happened. Seedorf never benched Monto.

many players came out and criticised seedorf after the sack. i hated this very much. usually players are diplomatic in such situations. it was most probably under upper management's blessings. something very bad did happen. berlu was openly criticising him towards the end of the season. i didn't want him get sacked and the way they did was disgusting. didn't even thanked him or had any official message. milan should stay classy(even if seedorf was at fault).

I def remember Dorf criticising montoleader publicly. He probably didn't bench the leader because we had nocerinos and traore? to replace him.

Dark times indeed.

I would rather get the sack than ever play Kepa again.
What a complete cunt.

Former Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has taken fresh aim at Paul Pogba, it has been claimed.

While United boss, Mourinho was understood to have blamed Mino Raiola and Pogba's other hangers-on as the source of the pair's conflict.

“People who work well together. People who share the same kind of ideas," Mourinho told the Daily Telegraph. "This is the fundamental thing. You now have a generation of players who are not just players but the whole package.

"You have the player, the family, the agent, the entourage, the director of communication. You sometimes have the individual's medical people and in an extreme situation you even have what they call their 'personal fitness guys'.

"When you have a player you have all these distractions. And if there is no empathy in the structure of the club you get into so many contradictions that it is really, really difficult to

Sarri should get banned from football for playing Kante the way he does.

Poor performance by Spurs tonight. They’ll really have to step up their game in the derby against Arsenal to make sure they keep the other top 4 contenders behind them. EPL sure looks like it’s gonna be exciting all the way to the last round.

So now City’s in the lead with 9 games left to play. I don’t see Liverpool winning the title now. They’ve been too inconsistent in 2019
