Gareth Southgate to #MUFC (sarcastically) doing the rounds. While it won't happen, I actually think he could be good:
✅ Made England shirt less heavy
✅ Created culture of togetherness
✅ Got England competing at the top again
United need someone to do all those things...

Ignoring the big leveraged-buyout elephant in the room, Alan Pace's time as Burnley chairman hasn't always been this dour.
The Kompany project was inspired. The Parker follow-up was smart. But Burnley's governance has nosedived over the past year... #twitterclarets
THREAD PT. 5
All in all, the current struggle seems aligned with Espanyol distraction, a dipping enthusiasm towards the club, and a lack of football-thinking people within the setup. That was a problem as soon as 'manager' Kompany left with 'head coaches' since. #twitterclarets

Pace is trying a fix with appointment of Diego Lopez as a chief footballing officer: a man with a CV to fill the current football-acumen void. A long-term plan which is certainly needed. Short-term, though, the mess that's result of a shoddy 12 months #twitterclarets

Was at Deepdale today but Burnley…what on earth!? Cardiff are good at home but inexcusable to blow a 4-1 lead with less than 30 mins of normal time to go.
The Championship will swallow a broken club without mercy. We’ve seen this story before… #twitterclarets
Tough job being a keeper. It has been a baptism of fire of Coudert. Pulls off a top first-half save but makes another error for the QPR goal. Don't think you make a change before the international break now but Weiss should be gearing up for a return after it. #twitterclarets
Surely it's Scott Parker nailed on for #WHUFC? Top Championship manager when given a squad he's expected to get promoted with. Keeps egos in check and builds a collective team ethos. Ex-West Ham legend as well. Perfect antidote to a frostier Nuno.
Some interesting ideas from Celestini on his first match as Burnley head coach. A solid first half that faded in the second. No Portsmouth shot on target though and one noticeable thing was the lack of mistakes. More direct play, minimising risk. #twitterclarets
3 quick ones:
🎯 It’s the first time since Weat Ham on the opening day that Burnley have beaten a team at home on xG
🎯 It’s the most xG Burnley have created at home since that West Ham game
🎯 It’s the first clean sheet Burnley have had at home this season

Feels like a small performance boost for Burnley even though Celestini's only been there a few days. Edwards lively in a central role, Hountonji a handful in weird floating role, some good direct balls forward. Familiar tale of wastefulness in key moments though. #twitterclarets
Come on @TeamYouTube! Don't let years of hard work, graft and talent fall by the wayside!

We may actually be well and truly in the bin here.
Hi, @TeamYouTube, I received this email and have reason to believe I’d been hacked and someone had started a live stream off of my account. Please help!
Fabio Celestini took Basel from the bottom of the Swiss league to the title in just 18 months.
Sounds like another attack-minded coach with no Championship experience but clear what ALK are thinking if they go here.
Would be another risky appointment though… #twitterclarets
EXCLUSIVE: Understand former Basel coach Fabio Celestini is emerging as a strong candidate to become Burnley's new head coach.
CoF Diego Lopez playing key role in process.
50yo left CSKA Moscow at end of last season.
