The last 48 hours has seen a massive amount of speculation regarding a rumoured deal to replace Mancini with current Malaga CF manager Manuel Pellegrini.

Translates to I adore you and I love you from French and German respectively.

Mandalay is one of the largest cities and former capital of Burma.

This line references classic Rudyard Kipling poem Mandalay:

On the road to Mandalay,
Where the flyin'-fishes play,
An' the dawn comes up like thunder outer China ‘crost the Bay!

The song’s message is simple — no matter who you are, or where you are on the planet, everybody has a connected sense of rhythm, music and movement.

HIT ME WITH YOUR RHYTHM STICK.

The cruiser referred to is the ARA General Belgrano. It was sunk 2nd May 1982 by British submarine HMS Conqueror as part of the escalating Falklands War spearheaded by British PM Margaret “Maggie” Thatcher. It was the first major shot of the war, and resulted in the death of 323 men.

The Belgrano’s sinking is marred with controversies. Claims that the Belgrano was retreating when it was fired upon, and evidence that suggests Thatcher received peace treaty provisions hours before the order was given to pursue the ship, are still an unsolved riddle of political debate in Britain today.

That’s not even mentioning the highly tasteful reporting of the event in The Sun newspaper.

He’s right. Manchester United have a knack for sticking by their managers through thick and thin, and they’ve only employed 18 different managers since 1892.

By comparison, Arsenal have employed 25, Manchester City 34, and Chelsea 26 (ten of which have been in the last ten years).

Goodison Park, the home of Everton FC since 1892.

Everton are currently sixth in the Premier League, and are expected to finish in that position, just shy of European cup qualification.

Everton are currently five points ahead of rivals Liverpool, with two games to play. If Everton finish about Liverpool, it will be the first time they have finished above the reds in successive seasons since 1937 — a real achievement considering the vastly inferior budget Everton command.

Ferguson’s list of trophies is completely unrivalled in English footballing history.

Alex Ferguson is retiring as United manager but will take a supervisory role on the club’s board of directors, alongside such legends as Sir Bobby Charlton, who is partly responsible for giving the young Ferguson his chance over a quarter of a century ago.

Ferguson personally recommended Moyes for the role, saying:

We unanimously agreed on David Moyes. David is a man of great integrity with a strong work ethic. I’ve admired his work for a long time and approached him as far back as 1998 to discuss the position of assistant manager here. There is no question he has all the qualities we expect of a manager at this club.
