11.02.2026 13:43 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I'd be surprised - they're hoping to grab Tuchel or Pochettino after the World Cup* So I can't see them getting in a "proper" manager as a temp.
* assuming they're still in the EPL, otherwise presumably Mark Robins, Nathan Jones, etc.
Notice De Zerbi just left Marseille (mutual consent, sounds more like a sacking as they just got pasted by PSG) - Paixao was bought specifically to play his system and has languished π€

09.02.2026 06:40 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0PSR rules change next year and were also punitive of Burnley and Leeds (Sunderland got a bye due to coming up so quickly from L1); that winds down going forward so for PSR the pressure drops I think. We only had 60% of the starting allowance of a non-promoted team (this is from vague memory tbc).

When asked if it highlighted a need for a centre-back signing in the January window, he insisted he was happy with his options."

06.01.2026 21:20 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Yeah, sounds like the buyout isn't needed, he'll just become a free agent. But I think coming to us on the same basis he was at West Ham would give us a different kind of threat from DCL/Nmecha, even if stuck with him for 12-18 months. Did think Piroe looked decent when he came on the other day tho.
