Ranieri again? 3 wins in 17 last time he popped up in the premier league with Fulham.
Funny mangerial career, that one season at Leicester aside and a couple of second tier promotions in France and Italy, he has managed a load of 'big' clubs and has a pretty poor record everywhere.
Some big games nearer the bottom, 8 of the bottom 9 are playing each other with Burnley v Norwich looking particularly important for both teams even at this early stage of the season
Tis true, they reckon we're banging on as if we've won a cup final, and maybe we are a bit, but they're acting like they've lost a cup final, so for every yin there is a yang and all that :)
What we never know is how long the club has been tracking a player or trying to convince him to sign for us. Welbeck is a case in point, just because he came in after the transfer deadline doesn't mean we weren't talking to him for months, along with loads of other clubs. We just don't know.
Our most decorated player i reckon...

Was surprised at Sanchez, but wow! He knows he belongs in this league now!
Good a place as any to mention his amazing save on the second half - it was offside in the end but it was a great stop.
Yeah, i agree. But not sure how much its pantomime to him, he really hates us, I'm not sure he'd even want to chat to me if I met him away from the fans and revealed myself as a Brighton fan. He gets wound up and emotional so easy, take the Harry the Hornet thing as well. But great player who...
Depends if you count the very early weeks of the season. We lost our first two games of 2017, against City and Leicester. We were out of the bottom 2 on alphabetical order after week 1 and were in bottom 2 on goal difference after week 2. (the other Albion were joint top and got relegated :p)...
My prediction, that I've espoused on here before, is that he will let his contract run down purely because of where he wants to go and play in the future. If he signs a new contract his price becomes so high that the only clubs that can really afford him are the big sides in the Premier league...
Ive been worrying about jinxing it too, but sod it, every single one of us knows exactly what a win would mean, every single one of them knows what beating us would mean, does jinxing even come into the equation any more?
And if course every single player knows what it could mean as well. That...
They are reporting out from a Spanish site, and that original piece offers nothing concrete whaysoever, no sources of anything.
But the Google translation of the article is a thing of beauty :
It is for the same reason that the sports management of the English team is working to close a series...
