We start by putting ourselves in the shoes of an ambitious manager and ranking four Premier League jobs — Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Manchester United, and Tottenham — based purely on the talent in their current squads (no owners, no budgets, no crystal balls). From there, we head to Serie A to ask what on earth has gone wrong at Fiorentina, a club usually sniffing around European places but now stuck at the bottom after a winless start. We also dig into football romance, wondering whether a truly world-class player has ever chosen a mid-table (or worse) club simply because it was their childhood team. Plus: does Aston Villa’s second-half surge against Chelsea prove that halftime is where elite coaches really earn their money? And finally, why do managers love subbing off goal scorers late in tight games — even when it feels completely counterintuitive?
