Just an update regarding Iraola…. My mate who’s a Palace fan was at the game last night & the talk around the stadium was that Iraola was in talks about becoming their manager next season.

Not one hope he's heading to Palace. He has bigger fish to fry than them.

Seems an odd move on paper. Apparently he would consider a move to London, which some are suggesting might be a location his family could feel more settled in.
With all the talks of interest from much bigger clubs, I can't imagine Palace is his first choice.

Lol
3 games to go!
Have faith, people ... it's going to get sorted one way or another.

Chelsea will be his destination if he fancies a London club.

The stadium crowd on match days is not usually the place to get reliable information, but you never know. ?
{Ed001's Note - I agree Ron. When I was at the game here the other night I was told Liverpool were trying to sign Jules Kounde from Barca. The guy who told me does happen to own a football club or two himself, but no idea if he knows anything or not.}

There is no way Iraola is going to either Place (a downgrade on Bournmouth) or Chelsea (a club heading in the wrong direction with looney tune owners).

Thing is, if Araola's family failed to settle on the south coast, where the weather is pretty mild, they'll struggle with the North West.
That said, between him or Alonso I'm fine. Both have good philosophies on the game. His English is absolutely perfect and he copes with whatever is thrown at him.
Can't see Enrique leaving PSG for us in a month if Sundays.

Ed01 which game were you at? I doubt if you can say who told you about Kounde?
{Ed001's Note - it was a game here in Dubai and the person who told me owns a top flight club here. He also likes Liverpool and I got called over to join the group because of that, as all the lads just know me as Liverpool. I can say he was part of an attempt to buy the club a number of years back as well.}

ED01 Many thanks.
{Ed001's Note - very welcome mate.}

Moving in big circles there ed1, if they had have bought the club, you definitely should have a seat on the board
{Ed001's Note - it is because I am just about the only non-local who goes to the games regularly. It is more like being a zoo exhibit at times! When I went to the Qatar game I ended up being interviewed by a number of TV channels wanting to know why on earth I was there.}
