And nah, we've been rolling over to people like Southampton and Swansea - slightly different.

He signed Fellaini as a complete panic buy after missing out on his other central targets. Had he actually wanted Fellaini to begin with he'd have signed him at the beginning of the summer, when he could have been purchased at a fraction of the cost that ended up being paid.

Pretty sure Thiago said he was never approached/contacted about going to United.

What about that Herrera lad? Pretty sure he was one of the other main central targets Moyes had.

Think there was something dodgy about that as well.
Can't recall what it was though.
EDIT: This.

So have we.

Fair enough.

They would have saved £4m if they signed Fellaini earlier.

Again, no.
You would think, but every reputable journalist will tell you otherwise.
The overpaying was just classic dithering Dave.

We lost to you!

I'd love Moyes at Celtic.
Ninja
Why?
I mean the titles guaranteed every season so surely you'd want someone who will do It whilst playing attractive football?
Moyes teams, even at Everton were never particularly noted for that.

You lost to a Yohan Cabaye goal that was set-up by Sissoko before he was Pardewed. Different team.

I doubt it.
It's purely down to the fact the FA offer no help to any of the English clubs in their big European games, unlike in Spain etc. Atletico and Real both were able to change their weekend fixtures to allow them to be ready for the first leg. Atletico opted to play their match on the Friday, while Real opted to not play at all. Because of the FA's lack of co-operation in doing similar, naturally Mourinho will look to rest players if he believes the CL is a more important fixture and one they're more likely to win- and rightly so.
I think you'll find those who are ineligible/suspended for the 2nd leg vs Atletico will play against Liverpool, alongside some possible fringe players. He'll possibly rest a few key players and that may mean a couple of younger players come in. I don't see it being anything more than that. Won't be an entire "second eleven" played.

Carroll.
Atletico are playing on Sunday and even have a later kick of so yeah, shut up.

As always, it's your wit that shines through.

We're talking about last weekend though

Carroll.
How is resting players for Sunday got anything to do with last weekend
Edit: and they played on a Saturday last week which is enough rest for a Tuesday game

Cos Atletico played on a Friday last weekend
So Friday->Tuesday->Sunday->Wednesday is a bit more rest than Saturday->Tuesday->Sunday->Wednesday. Especially factoring in that Chelsea had to fly to Spain

It would be a massive coup for the club and when managing in Scotland he'd be able to experiment more because the opposition is so weak. The most challenging part of the job would be in Europe where we'd need to he tip-top defensively and given proper support he could drill our side nicely. He's also an ex-player and I like the guy so there's some personal reasons there too.
Could be a good rehabilitation project for him - get out of England for a couple of years and come manage the club where he spent the first few years of his career. He'd win a few titles and the stress would be considerably less than it was at United.

Like you say there are players who are ineligible/suspended so the team wont be much different from your regular starting lineup, aside from the players who are out injured it'd pretty much be the strongest team you could put out regardless.
