Brentford scored in the 1st minute yesterday vs. West Ham, becoming the first team in PL history to score in the first minute in three successive matches.
Brentford was really slacking over the weekend against Wolves - they took 1 minute, 16 seconds to score. :ROFLMAO:

They then proceeded to hang four more on Wolves to win 5-3. It's probably a race between Gary O'Neill at Wolves and Erik Ten Hag at Manchester United to see who is the first Premier League firing/sacking of the season.

Manchester United gets Brentford at Old Trafford coming out of the international break. If they don't get the full 3 points in that one, I'd have to think ETH is gone.

After having the feature used during this past summer's Olympics, Multiview will be part of Premier League coverage on Peacock beginning December 4th. Multiview will give the viewer the opportunity to watch 4 Premier League matches at once. While it made easy sense for the Olympics coverage, it wasn't demanded as much by comparison for Premier League coverage.

Ruud van Nistelrooy has been named caretaker manager for Manchester United.

Sporting CP manager Ruben Amorim is reportedly the lead candidate to take over for ten Hag. Manchester United has also reportedly inquired about the availability of Brentford manager Thomas Frank.

Amorim would be quite the coaching domino considering he has to be high on the list of potential Pep replacements assuming Pep leaves City as expected. Sporting’s “GM” is heading to City after this season as well.

My guess is Amorim and Xabi Alonso would be the top two picks for City, and Alonso also has to be the assumed front-runner at Real Madrid when Ancelotti eventually retires. If Amorim heads to United, it could be quite the bidding war for Alonso if both clubs are committed to him.

City have already ruled out Amorim as a candidate.

Quite honestly, I don’t really believe that. I think it’s just press conference speak since Pep is still coaching there.
City will let United hire Amorim and then turn around and buy him out in the summer once Pep leaves

Leicester City have sacked Steve Cooper after only 12 PL matches in charge.
Is he going to blame the officiating for this as well? His complaining every single week really got old.

So do we start talking about Southgate, Moyes, and Big Sam? :)

I know City is really struggling right now but getting thrashed 0:4 at home is still a bit shocking.
What is really frustrating is that Spurs have the ability to do this against the top teams, but still end up giving Palace and Ipswich their first wins of the season in recent weeks as well.

Ruud van Nistelrooy appointed as new manager of Leicester City. He will attend the team's match tomorrow vs. Brentford with first team coach Ben Dawson in charge of the squad and will officially start in his role on Sunday.

How would you like to have the Premier League fixture schedule for the team you support look like this for the month of December?:

-Manchester United away
-Wolves home
-Liverpool home
-Arsenal away
-Chelsea home
-Manchester City away
-Nottingham Forest home

That's what Everton has and, aside from the Wolves match, that's an absolutely brutal stretch to have to go through.

United away is not what it once was. Forest at home should be at least a point. With the new stadium coming, the Tofffees need to find a way to stay up.

I know that United aren't what they once were but that'll be Amorim's first match in charge so it will be tough.

They should be able to stay up though. Southampton will certainly go down. Ipswich and Wolves haven't exactly looked strong either.
