EPL Talk 27 October @ 06:18 AM EST
It's been a strange but heartwarming Premier League season so far in that no manager has been
sacked, at least not quite yet. But when was the last time a manager was sacked so late in the
season?
According to the record books, the 2009/2010 Premier League season is on course to have the
fewest managers sacked before November for several years.

Thanks to Startdust for posting the breaking news about Keegan winning his constructive dismissal
case against Newcastle United. However, I just thought I'd try to distil it into something more
manageable and article-shaped. In the simplest terms Keegan was constructively dismissed and has
been awarded £2m as a result.

Usually if you are stuck at work on deadline day it can be an immensely frustrating time without
Sky Sports News to keep you upto speed on the latest news, rumours and deals. Today however, if you
missed the deadline coverage, consider yourself fortunate indeed.
Today, especially with the deadline being 5pm, transfer deadline day was as damp a squib as the
Twenty20 games at Old Trafford.

Luis Angel Landin recently signed with the Houston Dynamo and became their first designated
player a few days ago. I am not a breaking news source but I thought I would mention who this
person is scoring a phenomenal goal in the above video. They call that a Scorpion Kick I
think??
Don't know if he does them all the time but if he scores one like that in MLS I have no doubt it
would be a top choice for Goal of the Year!

People tell me Twitter has no value. People tell me degenerate sports gambling has no value. But if
you combine both - you sometimes land on some breaking news. Social networking sites are abuzz with
the rumor that Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez is set to walk out on the team. Presumably, the boss
is disappointed at the lack of funds afforded to him by the club's American owners.

Antonio Valencia made an impressive start to his Manchester United career as he scored in a 2-1
win over Boca Juniors in the Audi Cup in Munich.
The £16 million signing from Wigan skipped past two players before drilling a low shot into the
net to make it 2-0 in the 42nd minute, and while Boca keeper Roberto Abbonanzieri made an
incredible howler in letting the ball spill under his body, it was still a fine goal from the
Ecuadorian.
