Spurs' defence haven't looked too good; hopefully their emphasis on improving up front will hurt them yet....
And GOAL FOR NORWICH!!! SUPER! 😀

Friedel has really kept Spurs in this game.
I think he'll get time. My bet's on Mark Hughes. I think Di Matteo is a good bet despite a great start in the league. I somehow feel that Chelsea doesn't have that mental fortitude they had under Mourinho, and that they'd fold when they get into a sticky patch. That Super Cup humiliation might be a warning shot for them.
Never was a red card - very poor decision and I'm sure Spurs will appeal that.
Just thinking the same.
Has any manager been sacked two seasons in a roll?
Steven Fletcher's maintaining his clinical form in the Premier League. With McClean, Sessegnon and Johnson creating the chances, he might be worth every penny of the £12m O'Neill paid for him.
And playing some decent football. Much more attractive than Hodgson's - which is not saying much, but...
The expectation on hughes is different though. avb is turning a 4th place team into a midtable team.
Warnock's been sacked most seasons of his career.
EDIT: Actually that's not true. I just looked at his career and he's only been sacked a couple of times. He generally moves on himself.
Looked at Malaga's lineup and saw Fabrica Olinga's name on the teamsheet. That's his 4th appearance (2 CL, 2 league) this season. Pellegrini gave him his chance, having lost RVN to retirement and Rondon due to Malaga's financial problem earlier, prior to their qualification to group stage. With the CL money, they've signed Saivola on a one yr deal and Santa Cruz on loan.
Here's hoping one of our younger strikers can emulate Olinga's achievement.

QPR were away at the PL champions. I thought they did really well and were unlucky not to come away with a point - they threw away two golden chances and the 3-1 result really flattered City.
Pazzini 1-0 Bologna
16th min penalty for a debut goal.
On a sidenote, is quite 'funny' seeing Serie A clubs being able to name 12 subs. The manager basically have to pick the first XI only.
