I'm not entirely sure Carsley wants the job though?

I'm not sure Tuchel is a disaster but I expect him to do less well than Southgate
 
Just shows how amazing the football league can be in England. 2 seasons ago Luton were premier league and Wimbledon league 2 (4th tier for those that don't know). This season they play each other in the opening game in league 1.

Also great that Wimbledon are playing league 1 while MK dons are league 2.

I think Carsley knew the FA were pursuing someone else so when asked he downplayed wanting the job. Back to back U21 finals and 6 senior games coached, you got to think he wants the job post 20206. The FA only gave Tuchel a contract until the World Cup and I think that's because they want an Englishman for the home nations Euro 2028. They probably are hoping to get Howe but I doubt he would leave Newcastle next summer bar being sacked and that leaves Carsley.

Being at the City Ground for that Senegal game - it was so poor. Bizzare selections and bizzare tactics. All the games under Tuchel have been underwhelming.
 
I thought it was great when they were building Wembley doing England games around the country. England vs Mexico at Pride Park, great result.

I know it's all about money but I think they should bring it back.

Still, should have built the new national stadium in the midlands imo.
 
Tuchel just looks like that guy you see hanging around outside the local Spar.;)

Hammers doing nothing in the transfer market aside from wiping egg off their faces….cue Pvt.Frazier “ Doomed!”
 
Back to back U21 European winners - Carsley is a miracle worker.

Euro 2028 with the senior team please.
 
Carsley played for Ireland and there was an attempt to coax him into managing us but you’re right,he is destined for bigger things.
 
Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala suffered a broken ankle during the match against Paris St. Germaine today.
My coworker was watching it live on his phone when it happened.
It's up there with the Doug Flutie injury for cringe.
 
Even Donnarumma was shocked. Musiala just returned from an injury. He is often tackled fiercely.... Now they fear it is a calf-bone injury with several month of rehab training and recovery.
 
I hate seeing those kind of injuries.

Pretty shocking that Forest have lost Elanga and it seems highly likely Gibbs-White as well in the space of a couple of days! Meanwhile Chelsea continue to throw money around like its confetti (see also Man Utd). Talking to a friend who's a Villa fan last night and we couldn't decide if PSR is broken, or whether it's working exactly as designed to keep the smaller clubs in line?

Speaking of Chelsea does anyone think they have a hope against PSG in the CWC? (which is apparently still going on, I haven't watched a single minute of it). They've made millions out of it but I do wonder if it'll turn around and bite them (and City) later. I expect them to start the season strongly but wonder if some players might be knackered by Christmas.

I haven't spared much attention to it either. It will be take a toll later on, those players haven't had a true summer break, and many won't get one next year due to the World Cup.
 
Really not interested in the club world cup.

PSR is a way to protect the elite, they don't want another Chelsea or Man City coming along.

If Forest were allowed to do what both of those did with their very wealthy owners then no doubt marinakis would have spent a lot more and probably be challenging.
