    Pep Guardiola shock hands yesterday with the 9th different Chelsea boss while he's been Manager of Manchester City.

    Constantly chopping and changing Managers is insanity by a big club.

    I still shake my head at them getting rid of Poch.

    The BBC have produced a list of players who are probably on the move before the end of the month:

    In terms of Aston Villa, it seems almost certain that Alex Moreno is leaving.

    I thought Moreno had already joined Como to join their set of veterans (Varane, Belotti, Pepe Reina). The coach is Fabregas so will be interesting to see how they get on back in Serie A.

    Now it looks like Joao Felix back to Chelsea (why?) and Gallagher out. Maresca is on a hiding to nothing with this mob of players and I wonder whether he was recruited for just looking like a young Pep.

    @KiwiPie Joao Felix to Chelsea and Conor Gallagher to Atletico Madrid looks confirmed. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c0jp78g449qo

    Leicester 1 Tottenham 1

    Spurs dominated possession but were only able to come away from the King Power Stadium with a point.

    Moreno is a good player, really attacks they byline and I prefer him over Digne who is good at what he does, but he doesn't dribble with the ball. He either gives and goes, or crosses from deep, Moreno does more, but sadly, injuries have held him back, and with Ian Maatsen joining, it looks like he'll be the one to make way. Rumours are that he is homesick as well?

    @African-Monkey Alex Moreno got married in the summer which I think helped with the home sickness. He has said he's happy to stay in England. Notts Forest looks like the favourite to sign him if Villa decide to sell which I think is likely if Digne and Maatsen stay fit for the next week.

    Lucas Digne is the better defender and has lots of Champions League experience from his time at PSG and Barcelona.

    Yes Digne does. Emery seemed keen to get rid of Digne last season, but to Digne's credit, he's impressed Emery enough. Some real competition at left back for us, same can't be said at right back currently.

    OK I got the wrong Moreno! The Como Moreno is Alberto who used to play for Liverpool

    Soooo what happens now with Sterling and Chilwell? I can see them both spending considerable amounts of time twiddling their thumbs.

    What a miss by Watkins. What a save by Raya.

    Watkins had a shocker out there. He's had an awful start to the season.

    Liverpool have bought the Georgina keeper, Mamardashvili from Valencia. Not sure he'll play ahead of Allison though.

    was meant to come to Bournemouth on loan via Liverpool when this transfer was mooted months ago but problems with his manager meant that didn't happen..so as they do, Bournemouth have pivoted

    and will announce Kepa on loan officially from today, probably would have preferred Mamardashvili, but its still a big name get for a smaller club. Neto will certainly be challenged for number 1 spot now

    @bayimports There is something not quite right about bringing in a goalkeeper on loan when they have Alex Paulsen, one of their own contracted keepers, out on loan at Auckland FC.

    It's looking more and more like a scam to take one of the Nix's best players and move him to Auckland
