How grim will it be though if he does that, and at the same time Poch goes to Chelsea and wins things?

I actually think Tottenham would be a good fit for Nagelsmann. And really, if he wants the PL experience, it's the only club that makes sense. City, Liverpool, United, Arsenal and Newcastle all have managers whose jobs are super safe, and turning down this Chelsea iteration is the right decision for any good manager with half a brain. That leaves Tottenham. It'll depend on who gets the DoF job and what happens with Kane in the summer, but I wouldn't be surprised if this was an interesting job for Nagelsmann.

as for Poch having success at Chelsea, I don't see any respectable manager being able to fix this mess as long as Boehly is doing his thing. If Poch does come in, I doubt it'll be a very successful marriage.

Arsenal conceding to Southampton after 27 seconds from a brutal Ramsdale giveaway seems less than ideal.

Edit: 2-0 now....obviously title race pretty much over if they lose today.

Chelsea could apparently have a huge problem where they need to unload a few hundred million in players. You would think that other clubs would make them pay to unload like that, but at the same time you have to know it won't happen. They never should've been able to escape the debt to Roman, but somehow that was magically washed away.

I don't know. Southampton is so bad, that a comeback and winning 5-2 doesn't seem that unlikely.

[Barnet Flame]

I half expected a loss or a tie.

I didn't see it being served up on a platter within the first 30 seconds.

[Winsor_Pilates]

Half time, they will pull through today.

[agulati]

Down 3-1 now.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Looking grim now for Arsenal. Southampton, on the other hand, might have a shot at surviving now if they can hold on for the win.

[Senator Clay Davis]

3-3, will Arsenal (temporarily) save themselves?

[agulati]

All tied up!!

[Slava]

8 minutes of injury time, so apparently everything in their favour.

[cam_wmh]

CYG, stop the evil empire

[agulati]

Time wasting at its best there

[Senator Clay Davis]

Well worst case Ontario avoided for Arsenal, but still a pretty dreadful result. I imagine it'll be full bus at the Etihad, if they play open they will get cooked.

True, but current Ontario is not the best too.

I don't think Arsenal can play bus mode, as evidenced by the recent blown 2 goal leads.

They will play open because they know no other way & yes, likely get cooked.

They’re into the final month, of their best potential season for trophies ever. Such a sham of a club.

I knew I shouldn’t have hoped for a Spurs result today…

[Senator Clay Davis]

Spurs 3-0 down in nine minutes seems less than ideal.

[devo22]

wow what a start in the Newcastle-Spurs game. 3-0 after 9 minutes ...

[Senator Clay Davis]

Forfeit is only 3-0 loss right? Would be less embarrassing than this is going to be, 5-0 now.
