Ole's tenure at Man Utd has been the definition of a roller coaster. He started out extremely well, the high point being a 3-1 win at PSG that completed an incredible comeback/ However, pretty much everything since has been negative, and after the 1-1 draw hours ago, clamoring for Solskjaer's sacking has reached an all time high. This week's game at struggling Newcastle is massive. St. James' Park is one of the loudest and most intimidating grounds in football, but the team on the pitch has their own problems, and Steve Bruce the Newcastle manager faces his own cries over being sacked. 

What are your thoughts? If Solksjaer fails to get 4 points Sunday will he be sacked? If Newcastle lose by a significant margin (3-4+ goals) will Bruce be sacked? Also, as a bonus, what are your thoughts on Newcastle's tactics? A lot of Magpie fans were very angry with the defensive style they played against Brighton, as the Seagulls had 76% possession, and Newcastle generated few chances against a team they should've been able to beat.

Predictions for who gets dealt? What are some needs for the top contenders? I'll be curious to see if the Yankees acquire another starting pitcher, and if the NL Wild Card teams like the Brewers Cardinals DBacks and others make a big splash or sell.

Reactions? Who do you think got snubbed. I've seen a lot of people upset that only 3 Yankee players made it. And you could certainly make a case for Luke Voit and Gleyber Torres, however I think this year's list for the most part is accurate.

A day late.
