Has Mexico really fallen off *this* much?

 

You're not alone...

 

We’ve also had a clean sheet in 45% of our matches this season. We have two open DP spots and the window opens soon. Dean Smith has been incredible.

 

Jamaica!!!!!

 

Holy shit that cross was great

 

Booooooooooooooooo (even if it was right)

 

Excellent strike.

 

Just look at Switzerland, a great model for Canada to follow.

 

Bizarre if he actually chooses to come to United.

 

No clue if this source is reliable. But he’s followed by Ornstein and Fab so gonna pretend he is lol

Honestly would be crazy. He can be a starter at most clubs. Very surprised at the names we’re looking at for defensive depth.

 

Feel like if he does choose United he’s doing it thinking he’ll be named manager when they fire Ten Hag lol

 

...but FM always taught me you can't recruit someone too renowned as assistant lol

 

Wasn’t Paratici banned for doing shady transfers in order to get around FFP rules? Why are all these clubs allowed to do it now? Was what Paratici did different?

 

If you’re Ruud, you’ve got to think the chances that ten Hag proves himself as fully inept are quite high and that the chances for him to take over interim with enough time to earn the full time job are equally as high.

I would love him at United, just to have a confident and imposing figure like him around. Guy just oozes confidence and would bring a serial winner’s mindset and aura to the club and help ingrain that in the culture. Would be huge for Hojlund to learn from him as well.

 

Loved what Harry said here.

 

The alternative is that Burnley’s last manager just became the Bayern coach.

 

In fairness it was shit

 

Saw someone else say this, but it's very telling that this is how England are dealing with the first proper scrutiny since Southgate became manager. The whole time he's been there, the media have been super on board, it's all been good vibes.

None of the criticism they're getting is unwarranted, but Southgate has seemingly lost the plot given his responses, and the players are taking it really personally.

 

Can’t wait for him and Holland to sling their hook. The way they both dealt with Ben White and left him to get savaged by the media and fans showed me what they’re really like.

 

The players are in a really tough spot where they can see the obvious along with everyone else in the world but obviously they have to publicly show a united front and strong commitment to the cause. Hopefully the leadership group amongst the players confront Southgate to have some real productive conversation.

 

Sommer absolutely bailed out by the foul in the build up.

 

What a move from the Swiss!

edit: man they’re gonna chalk this offside aren’t they?

 

McGinn is just getting clobbered out there haha
