I noticed that as well

Thats why I am screaming Lallana is not being used as a 10

City play a high line right?

World's greatest defender is going to have nobody to mark or try to step in front of to win the ball.

I expect Jay Rodriguez to have aleast 2 one on ones due to the high line and the timing of his runs

Going back to the point you made about when they have possession it looks like Pochettino has copied what Pep done to Sir Alex in Rome

He has 4 CMs and his two CF are wide players like Henry/Eto'o were in that game

They shouldn't have did a u-turn on Luis Enrique a year ago

Heard something about a pre-agreement for Laporte being done already

PSG and United apparently made an enquiry about Pedro in January. They'd be crazy to let him go but if they do LVG needs to sign him up.

If Deleufou stays Everton should bring in Munir El Haddadi on loan.

About time 

 

 

Ranieri took over at the Ligue 1 side in 2012 and, in his first season as coach, led the club to promotion. This season, Monaco qualified for the Champions League after finishing second in the French league, nine points behind champions Paris Saint-Germain.

"I can confirm that Ranieri will leave Monaco,” Vasilyev told reporters at a press conference. “I want to thank Claudio for doing a great job here. 

“It was a difficult decision. It is never easy to take a club from Ligue 2 to the Champions League. But we believe that at this stage we need a new dynamic.”

Vasilyev added that Ranieri’s replacement will play more attacking football however he was reluctant to discuss further details on the successor.

"I can't confirm the name of the new coach as we are still negotiating some details. We want someone who can bring an offensive way of play which will be enjoyed by our fans."
