Pochettino is waiting for Man. United, think that's clear although don't think OGS will be sacked before the summer so perhaps he'll get tired of waiting.

Will we finish within 10 points of Arsenal, that's the big question OFTR.😉

I'd like to think so but its very early days still. I fully expect Arsenal to finish top half still so we'll see. One thing about the big clubs is that they don't do badly for long. I'd still be amazed if we finished above them tbh.

Think Everton, Southampton and perhaps Wolves are all finishing above them unless they change manager. From what we've shown I'd be hugely disappointed to finish below them. Add the probably top 6 and Leicester and that's a first bottom half finish for Arsenal since the mid 90s imo as they look so poor in final third.

Nothing a good manager couldn't sort out. PEA is a class player, low on confidence and they will look to strengthen in January you'd think. 

As I say we are just past the quarter of the season mark and so much can change between now and May. Everyone was writing off the bottom 4 just a week or so ago and now they are picking up points. I maintain that if we finish above Arsenal (which of course is possible) we will have had a terrific season as I fully expect them to improve as the season goes on.

Nuno would be a good fit for them.

He would but he'd be mad to go there. Anything he achieves at Wolves other than a relegation battle is a massive success for them. At Arsenal, he'd be expected to challenge for the title or he'd be hounded out by the unhinged morons who are represented on AFTV.

I agree if its just him but it would not be it would open the door for Mendes and what he has done for Wolves but on steroids.  Much easier to get his top players to move to London.

Was a pretty nasty tackle and he barely avoided 2 others in the same sequence.

On the bright side his sisters birthday is March 11th so with a bit of luck he'll still be out injured then.

Out for 3 weeks according to the latest reports. He'll have to create another reason to fly to Brazil.
