MASSIVE boss Carvalhal cracking up ?

Well all I can say to those ''ramblings'' is KARMA

Mr Carvalhal - Cast your mind back to the play off semi final last year when we got 3 in juries in the first game and had 4 first team players out for the second leg. ''What goes around comes around'' and all that

It was four injuries within 55 minutes.

I prefer the turning water into wine - a nice little Syrah would do, or maybe Pinot Noir.

I'm not going to quibble with you over that, but might play around with the order of those two and whack in a Sangiovese and Nebbiolo for good measure.

It's not just Rhodes, is it? I seem to remember something of a frenzy on here when for a brief moment there was a rumour we were in for Almen Abdi. He eventually went to The Massive as expected, and I think many of them seemed to think that was the final piece of the jigsaw. Fletcher to complement Gary Hooper, Abdi, Pudil, and they thought the job was done.

Abdi hasn't played much, Pudil was getting slated when we played them in January. Fletcher hasn't done much, Hooper has been nowhere near as prolific as I expected and is also fat, and Rhodes hasn't been the catalyst that many (me included) anticipated.

Funny, isn't it?

Did massive do the same as the Albion?

Keep the manager (yes) but also keep hold of a successful team and just strengthen a couple of key places?

Or did they sell a few and start again?

They got too many in, and now the manager doesn't know his best XI, so has to tinker with the selection all the time.

No plan to buy players that compliment each other.

Basically, Massive have tried the Derby Way.

I told the missus I wanted fish and chips for dinner, but she missed the "and".

Set to be named new boss of Swansea... not often a manager get's sacked from a club in a lower division and then finds themselves managing a club in a higher league shortly after, something fishy going on?

Swansea resorting to ''TYPE'' - Derby sacked Paul Clement and then Swansea employed him and he kept them up. Going for similar formula it seems

On the current crop of injuries:

"You can be with three boxes of rice, three kilos of potatoes. But if you don't have fish, a potato cannot play the role of a fish."

Errr...

...mmmkay.

That's what he said "on Wednesday," what about Thursday?

I'd say whoever carved this potato did an excellent job.
