Nowhere is the answer, hasn't been in a managerial job since leaving West Brom about a year and a half ago as far as I know, he's done some punditry and I think I've seen him on Sky's awful "the debate" show

I doubt they sell many of the Man City away strip currently on MOTD.

Unless fans want to look like a Trebor fruit salad.

It's more likely they were on L.S.D at the time of designing

that and plus the sweets I reckon!! what were they thinking?

The Spuds just got demolished at the New Shite Heart Lane

Yes I know Bayern thrashed Arsenal a couple of times

Yes I know at least they are in the champions league & not Europa

blah blah blah, the point is it was still brilliant to watch. The Spuds loved seeing us get beat when they were in Europa & we were in Champs League that's just the nature of rivalries. At least when we crashed down from our heights we had won 3 league and 7 FA cup titles

Well I'm not an Arsenal fan but I too found it hilarious, the 3 goals in 5 minutes in particular had me in stitches

On an unrelated note the pundits on RTE after the match recalled a statement from Tony Pulis who in 2015 as manager of West Brom had Serge Gnabry on loan from Arsenal and said he wasn't up to the standard for West Brom, where are they both now ? Pulis is currently out of a job and Gnabry is a German international and one of the first names on the Bayern team sheet

I thought that was very humorous

Pulis was right about Gnabry. He was poor at the time and couldn't break into the West Brom team. He went back to Arsenal in January that season and didn't get into their side either. He ended the season with just one substitute appearance in the Premier League, plus a couple games in the League Cup.
