@African-Monkey I would have thought a return to club manager at a medium-sized club would suit Potter a lot better.

@African-Monkey Tuchel seems to want it. Poch is out of work at the minute.

@sparky He got offered the Ajax gig but didn't take it. That did surprise me.

But yeah, the West Ham gig or even back at Brighton would have been a good return to management for him.

Keep your hands off

One theory I've heard is that Lee Carsley or Steve Holland might do it for a year, then someone like Klopp, Postecoglou, Emery or Pep would come in after that.

@booboo Seems committed to Spurs at least in the short-term.

Sarina Wiegman, the England women's national coach, would fit all the criteria the FA have set out. But I suspect she'll only want to work in the women's game.

I think part of the hype is related to the English fans, especially, and media putting the EPL on such a pedestal. This means that the abilities of the English players are often inflated relative to players from other leagues/nationalities. How many would have heard of Fabián Ruiz or Mikel Oyarzabal before the Euros?

What? The EPL on a pedestal? The most watched annual league of the biggest sport, by a mile, on the planet?

I’m not sure of your on this thread to wind up or just generally have no clue.

I work with and socialize with season ticket holders to Arsenal, spurs, Chelsea, United, palace and qpr. None of them rave about the English players, and all of them you could name a top league player anywhere snd they’ll know.

The hype, the mania, is a country getting behind a team. And it’s fantastic. I know not one person who thought it was coming home. There was hope, yes, but deep down not much confidence.

But anything can, and will, happen in football. So all jump on the bandwagon. And it’s a fucking fun
One to be on. Lots of hope without fear and expectation.
