Man United gets so much one sided "banter" on here that I've become dull to it. Not even amusing anymore and I dony even support them.
>>144176066yeah good point alejandro we know
>public backing from the boardDead man walking
>>144176080Agree. It's the same few jokes over and over again.
“I’m very optimistic at what we have in front of us. We’re starting to put the right pieces in place and I’m absolutely convinced we’re going to be successful.”He refused to state how long it may take to make United consistent challengers again. “It’s almost impossible to put a timescale to answer that question,” Berrarda said."We don’t want to just win one Premier League and then be satisfied. We want to create a team that is capable of competing for the Champions League, for the Premier League and for the domestic cups on a consistent basis."
>>144176087>game 3It's way too early for this saga to begin again
So far i've been seeing Ole revisionism (missing times when Ole's United could win with silly score like 6-2, 9-0, etc with killer front three's counter attack), Ronaldo revisionism (Ronaldo was right of leaving ten Hag's United), De Gea revisionism (Onana is that bad they even wished the dude who was jobless for 1 year and only now became Fiorentina's 2nd GK to stay) but I'm glad I haven't found Sancho revisionism, he's universally hated.
>>144176112excuse me, I just made that joke up right now. Its brand new. Whats the fucking problem?
>>144176080>Man United gets so much one sided "banter" on hereYep only them who gets it
>Ashworth here makes clear he is attuned to the risks of such a scenario. It is why Pep Guardiola likes to keep a tight squad at Manchester City: to create competitive tension where nobody feels discarded. Chelsea are taking the opposite approach, of course.

>>144176878while i agree with you overall (you can see me complaining about thread splitters at the top of this thread) this was a weird situation where we had 2 threads last night, one got nuked, the other stayed for some reason and then another new thread was made, that one hit bump limit so reasonable thing to do is come to the first one made that wasnt nuked. but oh well.
>>144175878They should have stopped at 96

>>144177409Why are you so fucking desperate to have control of the general?
>>144177478I just corrected the post. The "coomer" OP wasn't banned and your obsession with them is weird.
>>144177508it was banned and should've stayed banned
>>144177521No it wasn't. You just wish it was so you could always be the OP.
>>144177540nah actually I prefer someone else to make the OP, I only make OP when everyone can't be arsed
is this it, has 4chan fallen? are we reddit now?i wondered how they made enough money to pay the jannies to clean up the place and make it corpo friendly since everyone uses adblock, then remembered1: the real money is in letting the shillbots run their campaigns unmolested2: they do it for free

I don't understand how manure monkeys can be so confident, like after that shitshow how can you possibly show your face let alone think you're going to have a great season? You have the same manager from last year and you were just humiliated in your derby at home by a bloke who flew in a month ago with a grand total of 2 prem matches experience under his belt. Like that match was physically embarrassing to sit through. You have a forward who is blatantly a ten hag signing and doesn't look like much of a step up from Hojlund. I don't get it?

>Striker Brad Young has joined the Saudi Pro League club Al-Orobah from The New Saints for a record Cymru Premier League fee of about £190,000. Young was Welsh football’s leading scorer last season with 22 goals and has helped TNS to secure a place in the Europa Conference League group stage.>A club statement read: “The New Saints FC can confirm the permanent transfer of striker Brad Young to the Saudi Pro League side Al-Orobah in a record breaking transfer deal. Last year’s Cymru Premier player of the season and golden boot winner departs Park Hall for a fee of $250,000 (£190,000) with potential future add-ons. The deal is a record for the largest transfer fee received by a club in Welsh domestic football.”>The TNS head coach, Craig Harrison, said: “It’s a fantastic opportunity for Brad. I think his signing has been beneficial for both parties. He’s done fantastically well for us, and he’s now got another opportunity to try and better himself. Not only that, but the club has also received a really good transfer fee for him so I think it’s a win-win for everybody.”>Young joins the former Premier League trio Kurt Zouma, Jóhann Berg Gudmundsson and Jean Michaël Seri at Al-Orobah, who have lost their opening two Saudi Pro League games.£190k for the top scorer in the sheep shagger league
>>144182628that's kind of sad, he wasn't even old either. think people might want to start taking the threat of the saudi league a bit more seriously
>>144182553moyes is available
>>144182636Yeah, he's 21. Surprising no club in the EFL tried to sign him if the fee TNS accepted was so small
>>144182636easy money though
>>144182651my biggest worry is that the saudis'll work their way into uefa competitions and that's when you'll really see shit hit the fan
let's be real though had he not taken the Saudipill he'd be spending the rest of his career playing somewhere down there, earning basically not that much different compared to common proles.
>>144182691Can't see that happening unless they buy a load of literally who clubs in Europe to act as fronts.Coming to the 2034 CL final: Valletta v Tre Penne
>>144182651isn't Cymru PL still filled with a bunch of semi-pro clubs? doubtful if they're any better than clubs at National League honestly.
>>144182705that's precisely how i think it'd happen. it's why the super league idiots are tying their own noose with their whole harlem globetrotters lark about playing league matches in america and the like, once that's the done thing all it'll take is the sauds registering a club in poznan or valladolid and there's no longer any reason they can't host matches in saudi arabia
>>144182608That's exactly what this team needs, another weakwilled, flakey pussy
casemiro being completely washed might make that young Mali DM they just signed to get immediately involved with the senior team squad, i think. at least there are group stage 8 EL games to try first.
>>144173465Fixed it
>>144182711TNS is the only fully professional club in the Welsh league system. The rest would be probably about sixth-tier/seventh-tier in the English pyramid at best.

BBC article on PFA FC: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/clynp5j0pnyo>The camp is an example of the PFA's attempts to make itself more relevant to current players. In addition to the training aspect, players are given access to the PFA's business school, education and mental health initiatives.>More than 100 players took part in total, some of whom have already found clubs.>"The target audience for this camp was not people dropping out of academies," said PFA chief executive Maheta Molango. "This was for more established professionals."I'm surprised the PFA didn't establish this earlier than it has done. And yes, this is THE Carl Jenkinson.

>>144182765He has the worst network of any manager in history. He's also the worst manager in terms of communication with both players and media that I've ever seen
>>144160368MAN U SPORTING DIRECTOR INTERVIEW 1/2Manchester United navigated their first transfer window under the INEOS-powered football operations team this summer. In a Q&A session that Sky Sports News was active in, Ashworth and Berrada explained the new mechanisms.Led by sporting director Dan Ashworth, who spent his first two months in the job purely focused on recruitment, the club embarked on a total of 32 transactions.Supported by CEO Omar Berrada, technical director Jason Wilcox, interim director of recruitment Christopher Vivell and manager Erik ten Hag, the club have worked hard to finally sell well, address key positions and operate in a sustainable manner. INEOS sporting director Sir Dave Brailsford oversees the process.What were the main talking points? Dispelling the notion that Man Utd only buys players Erik ten Hag knows Removing players that were not considered useful to the club: Sancho, Antony, Amrabat etc Contracts structured in a way that can deliver value in the short-term and future Financial rules (PSR) are appreciated and respectedQ: Are you excited over the future?Berrada: "I can sense it, and I can also speak for myself, which is I'm very excited and very optimistic at what we have in front of us. I think we're starting to put the right pieces in place and I'm absolutely convinced that we're going to be successful."Q: The club seemed more aggressive with clauses and more willing to soften on valuations, so outgoings could get done?"It is true that we have been more open to structuring the contracts in a way that can deliver value for us in the short-term, we have done that with practically all of the players who have gone out, from the young ones to the more senior players.Ashworth: "Sometimes you have to be quite brave and make decisions that maybe you don't want to make, but you can't have a bloated squad.
>>144183247Nobody cares faggot
>>1441603682/2Q: How long will it take Man Utd to get to Manchester City's comfort position of just slightly tweaking the squad?Berrada: "I think anybody who has worked in football for a long time could tell you that it's almost impossible to put a timescale to answer that question."What I can say is, it has been demonstrated when you look at the teams who have been successful consistently for many years, it's because they have the right coach, they have signed the right players and you need to take good decisions consistently for many years, to get into a position where you are a financially sustainable club that is competing to win every single competition. "As Dan referenced earlier, we don't want to just win one Premier League and then be satisfied. We want to create a team that is capable of competing for the Champions League, for the Premier League and for domestic cups on a consistent basis. So to build that, we need to be doing more of what we have done in this window."I think Dan and the team did a fantastic job in the negotiation process. And the reason I mention that is if you make a mistake and if you overspend or get a player who can cost you too much, it can set you back. There will be some mistakes, it's normal there are certain factors we can't control. Q: Ten Hag had a lot of power in the old recruitment structure, and it seems that has continued with the incomings this summer?Ashworth: "I don't know how they've made the decisions on players coming in, and as I've already alluded to, it's a joined-up process: we looked at objective, subjective opinions and come up with the best possible solution we can to fill the positions we have identified."It is natural in human nature to work with somebody you've worked with previously in all contexts, in all business contexts. That is a natural sway because you know that person, because you know that player, he'd never worked with Zirkzee - you can't say just because he's Dutch he knows him.
>Ronald Koeman: "[Spurs legend] Steven Bergwijn goes to Saudi Arabia at age 26. It's clear that this has nothing to do with sporting ambition. >"His book with the Dutch National Team is closed. He probably knows what I would have said this."
>>144182636Surely on way more cash than he'd be likely to get from anyone below the C'ship, at least, and gets to see the world a bit, which he probably never figured would happen when he left Villa's academy. Might get some goals, he was always a good finisher and a real scrapper, just not great technically and quite small.

>Ivan Toney’s deadline day move to Saudi Arabia could see him land the UK equivalent of £1 million a week after bonuses are included.>Toney’s four-year deal will land him basic pay of around £400,000 per week after tax. It is understood add-ons and bonuses related to performance would take his salary to towards £500,000 across his contract. To earn the same take-home pay in the UK after tax would need wages close to £1 million per week. [Telegraph]
>>144182765The cultists on RedCafe are currently trying to argue this summer's Dutch players weren't his choice and it's just a coincidence that INEOS identified them as key targets
>>144183366i dont really care about united but i do sometimes check the bruno fernandes thread on that site after dave called him one of the best players in the world and all they do is shit on him and call him a fraud.
>>144183425They really hate most of the players because they've spent so long trying not to blame the manager. Looks like the penny has finally dropped for most of them now though

>>144184416>£36k a weekEven this was near the high-end of his weekly salary, think he got this if he made an appearance. talkSHITE were talking about how it closer to £22k a week. He was on the edge of signing one for £53k a week when the betting scandal came out.
toney fucking off is a positive for brentford
Is there any hope for United? They have a spent a shit tonne, gone through several managers and are still no closer to winning the premier league.
>>144184456there is if they get a good manager
>>144184456de jong will make the team click, surely sir jim won't mind to spend an extra 85 million in january
>sell Elanga for 15m >Newcastle already want to buy him for 50mElanga is quick, strong and can make a final ball (shot or pass). Never going to be world class but certainly good enough for Man Utd squad and first team/bench role. Another poor decision. Funny enough I think that one is on the fans, he was under a lot of pressure many people excessively criticised and hated him.
Serious question is Toney allowed to gamble now he's in Saudi? Surely they don't have regulations.
>>144184568Reckon gambling is a major crime in Saudi. Also the FA betting laws are FIFA rules so as a foreign league player he still can't do UK bets
mad that englishmen let a bloke who scores 40 league goals a year move to the shit german league when there's like 7 clubs in england desperate for a 9
>>144184568>Gambling is strictly prohibited in Saudi Arabia under Islamic law. The country has a strict moral code, and all forms of gambling are considered haram (forbidden). The government enforces this law rigorously, and those found guilty of gambling can face severe punishments, including imprisonment and flogging.
>>144184595only applies if you're poor. all the rich saudis are better on all the bullshit sport they pull over there.
>>144184595It's also against Islamic law to live with a woman you're not married to but they let Ronaldo get away with it.

starting to think Slot will go undefeated bros... Salah will go super saiyan mode before leaving Liverpool for good.
What's the best Liverpool PL XI ever? For me, it's:AlissonTAA Hyppia VVD RobertsonAlonso MaschGerrardSalah Suarez Mane
>>144186644grim
>>144186608Liverpool have the easiest starting run>Ipswitch>Brentford >Manchester United >Forest>Bournemouth >Wolves>PalaceBarring an upset Liverpool are expected to beat the next 4 which if they do then Slot would have the most successful Premier League debut beating Pep's 6. Obviously they could bottle it, but on paper they've got the easiest run. After that its Chelsea which is historically a slurper and then Arsenal. So as far as the League is concerned Slot has an easy run.

Gotta say, there are way too many shitters in the Premier League. We need to go down to 16 team to weed out the chaff. The way to still have 38 games is to take a leaf out of UEFA's book and play additional games but not against every team. Rank the teams into 4 pots of 4 based on the previous season's league position and make a draw for every team to play 2 teams from each pot, one at home and one away, much like the new Champions League format. This is 8 additional games to add to the 30 you normally have in a 16 team competition.This would make a truly elite Premier League.

>>144186890>>Hendo and Gini over Gerrard, Alonso and Mascheranowell yeah, they allowed the fullbacks to be the best they could be, what you get from Gerrard is nullified by him being toy of the rovers and taking away from the overall team, Masxherano is a worse Fabinho, Alonso maybe but he's not as effective covering ground to cover the full backs as Hendo or Gini

>>144191226>You mean, including in the games where they weren't playing Ipswich?I wouldn't have thought so. I would imagine it's only for opponents who played Ipswich. Just the three games. I looked at fbref for a quick reference and according to it Liverpool, City, and Fulham generated an xG of 6.8 against Ipswich and Ipswich generated an xG of 1.2. So that's a difference of 5.6 but I've heard people say that different databases or stat checkers or whatever it is, calculates xG differently to one another so that might explain the difference from that original post. I didn't think Ipswich have played that badly either, other than against City, but like I said, this is just my best guess.
>>144190409Veltman got man of the match by the way
>>144191356>it's whenever people decide it is.Reminded me of the whole saga over Russell Martin last year.>Martin signed a three-year deal when he was appointed Swansea head coach in 2021 but left after two seasons in charge.>The former Scotland defender took over at St Mary’s Stadium despite the fact that compensation had not been agreed between the Saints and Swansea.>Martin was understood to have agreed to take the Southampton job in May 2023, but his move was not confirmed until late the following month because of the compensation issues.>At the centre of the disagreement was whether Southampton, who were relegated in 2022-23, were still a Premier League club when they came in for Martin.>The timing was key because Martin's Swansea contract featured differing compensation clauses depending on whether a club looking to appoint him were in the top flight or not.

Dave. Liversissy. DSL. Arsewog. My grandmother used to tell me stories about the old days, a time of peace when the Faggotar kept balance between the Manure Tribes, Bindipper Kingdom, Oil Nation, and African Nomads. But that all changed when the Oil Nation attacked. Only the Faggotar mastered all four plastic styles. Only he could stop the ruthless oilbenders. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years have passed and the Oil Nation is nearing victory in the War. Two years ago, my father and the men of my tribe journeyed to the Bindipper Kingdom to help fight against the Oil Nation, leaving me and my brother to look after our tribe. Some people believe that the Faggotar was never reborn into the African Nomads, and that the cycle is broken. But I haven't lost hope. I still believe that somehow, the Faggotar will return to save /epl/.

He was doing his Inhalers are PEDs thing and some dude (I guess you) said he had an inhaler and it wasn't a performance enhancer and for some reason height came into it. So Dave starts absolutely sperging that scousers can't be 6'0 without PEDs because malnourishment and completely refused to acknowledge the extra 4 inches. So everyone just called him a fucking manlet sperg. He stopped trying to force Stephen as reverse Dave after that but everyone kept bringing it up to fuck with him.I don't remember why we started saying "Stephen and his NOTORIOUSLY thick cock" exactly. But I do remember all the NOTORIOUSLY posting. Fuck that was only like two years ago
>>144192024It was really weird. I've never heard "your asthma is why you're tall" before lol. Him knocking my freakish height down 6 inches and insisting THAT was a freak height was too funny though.

>>144192357Over 1gbps? In UK that's mostly a business only option. What's your ping like? I tested mine after it got installed with a few games of rocket league amd it was between 12 and 20 ping.
>>144192419idk, with fiber i think you can get up to 5 gigs per second but i dont have that in my city, or at least in the apartment buildings i live ini'm east coast so most game servers are either somewhere east coast or somewhere central USA (not going to connect to west coast but even then it's not that bad maybe like 80-90 ping), if it's an east coast server ill be like 15 or low, central maybe 40-50. which is obviously very solid. can't remember the last time i ever worried about internet speed
>>144192267mine is around 2mbps
>>144192448Speed is good. Before this upgrade i was getting 300 ping so pretty much gave up video games. Might get back into it now.
>>144192545i was always under the impression US internet infrastructure was shit compared to europe because ours is older but maybe i was wrong
>>144192589https://www.speedtest.net/global-indexinteresting desufor me im paying for 1 gig and getting this, scammedwired 700 down 4 up wifi 250 down 2.5 up
>>144192589USA Internet is worse in general but in major cities its very good. Mid west is awful.
>>144192663yeah guess it's probably the same everywhere in the west, im sure london gets great speeds but some village in cumberland or some shit probably not
>>144192545that's even worse than the shithole known as indonesia wtf>>144192589europe's internet structure is good but honestly not as good as singapore and east asian nations
>>144192730Some rich villages have their own Internet which is very fast
so much Ole revisionism in my timeline lads
>>144192251Corrr I wish that were me. You should try BraviaCore with that speed.
boehly's magic
>>144192589I think it depends where in Europe it is. I remember some years back now Romania had incredible speeds compared to almost everywhere else because all of the shit passed through there or something. I don't know.I pay for 1Gbs and get around 950Mbs with 105Mbs up and 12-16 ping. Really can't complain about it, but they absolutely robbed me on the price the bastards.
>>144193571>105 upive always wondered that about my internet in my city, i posted earlier im like 700 750 down or whatever only 2 or 3 up, been like that with every ISP i've used in my city. dunno why it's throttled so hard
>>144193595This is the first time my up has been above around 12. I'm not sure why the difference is always so huge. We need /g/ in here.
>>144191044xG different is xG created minus xG conceded
well said chloe
don't know if dave is real or not but i could believe he's someone samefagging to 'argue' with himself. seen far stranger things on here
chelsea fans will still, with a fully straight face, engage in salah vs hazard debates and come to the wrong conclusion
yes i agree, hazard was more talented and successful at club level than moinhalerd salah
So I have not bought a Utd jersey since the Glazers took over, pretty much out of principle (I bought my sons a CR7 strip when he came back, but that's been about it). I love the 3rd strip this year, and happened to be in a large sports store here in Norway buying some back to school stuff for my kids, when I saw the jersey section. Liverpool, City, Arsenal - 1st, 2nd and third strips. They had the United 3rd strip for 50% off... and a *stack* of United jerseys just sitting there while everything else was selling fast. The assisitant said that it had been the same the last few years and next years they wouldn't stock Utd as we are mid table and not top 4 any more - there is no demand. I figured why not buy the jersey, high on the hope of beating Liverpool in a few days time... and the assisitnt asked what player name/number I'd like. I genuinely couldn't think of any player I like enough to have on my back. I have zero connection to any of the bunch, which made me hugely sad. I opted to have no number on the back for the first time ever for me on a jersey. My 9 year old son picked a Mbappe/Real jersey as he is more of a player fc fan for Mbappe, and my daughter picked a Bellingham/Real jersey. I was more than a bit gutted. None of my 'but we used to beat them in the CL...' didn't cut it - my kids were born a long time after our golden era. We are a relic to them. Each of them could name a bunch of good players from Liverpool, City and Arsenal, but just struggled to find anything exciting about United and couldn't name any player apart from Bruno, who they recon is now past it! They asked who our top striker was... I was met with blank expressions when I said Hojland and Zirksee. I realised that then and there, the Glazers job was complete. We have become an irrelevence to the young people today who have not been brought up to follow the club. I real fear for us unless we take hard and drastic action.
3 games in btw

>There has been a lot of talk over months now about calendar-related issues.>The EFL Cup seems to be at a pinch point.>The third round of this season's competition is having to be played over two weeks due to the first round of matches in the Europa League being played in an "exclusive" European week, beginning on 23 September.>Yesterday, the EFL confirmed third-round fixture dates but Manchester City's home game with Watford was listed as "TBC".>This is why: City play Arsenal in a Sky televised game on Sunday, 22 September. The following Saturday they go to Newcastle for a TNT televised game.>That means the City-Watford game needs to be played on Wednesday, 25 September. Except that is the same day as Manchester United start their Europa League campaign against Dutch side FC Twente.>I can imagine Greater Manchester Police are not too keen on the idea of dealing with thousands of visiting Dutch fans going to Old Trafford at the same time as City are playing.>United and City have played home matches on the same day, but it is exceptionally rare, has not happened for a long time and involved low-profile games.Europa League on a Wednesday. Well that's new.

>>144197196prick
>>144197087Saw an insane stat that Spurs signed Ndombele, Lo Celso, Jack Clarke and one other player for £150m and sold them for £10m lol.
>>144197244Imagine not remembering the permission to be on the front row to sign Johnny Cardoso baka
>Catfish And The Bottlemen have seemingly quietly cancelled their tours in Australia and the United StatesBad news for that one guy obsessed with them playing at Spurs' stadium
>>144197260>-£21m
I went into the other thread and posted this. What a surprise.
>>144197402Mainoo should do the needful
>>144197402ah yes, three key players for three different teams pull out of glorified friendlies... never seen this before, pure coincidence, I am sure.
BBC's free agents XI: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cpvyjwjr17no>Keylor Navas>Aurier - Matip - Hummels - Brandon Williams>Moses - Rabiot - Andre Gomes - Robert Skov>Martial - DepayYep, it's shit
>>144197471Hummels would easily be picked up by a PL club if he wasn't asking for stupid wages. He should try Saudi or USA.
>>144197478Forgot to add Rabiot as well. Plenty of clubs need depth.
>>144197429Stop NOTICING things.
>>144197471Would this team beat 10Hag’s United?
>>144197402>inb4 Saka playing 120 mins
>>144197553>butthurt arsenal plasticoh no he's playing games of football that aren't for his club how horrible
>>144197429They play for City, Chelsea and Villa, 3 of the 4 clubs that tried to sue the PL because they couldn't cheat. Now they're trying to destroy the English NT by pulling their players out. Utterly disgraceful.
>>144197471insane how conte made victor moses look like a world class player but couldn't do it with any tottenham players
>>144197562way to miss the point my utterly outraged friend
>>144197562I mean if those three can pull out consistently and constantly and nobody calls them on it, then people can be mad that other players aren't doing the same. I'm mad that Livramento got called up when he is unlikely to play or if he does, it'll be minor. Annoyed that Gordon is playing because he can easily make that left side his own and he'll be forever played there. I would care if England could actually win the Nations League, but all they can do this year is get promoted.
>>144197592what exactly was your point then because it sounded like you bitching he's playing football for a team that isn't arsenal>>144197603>consistently and constantlyshow me where those three have pulled out of england squads on a regular basis>Annoyed that Gordon is playing because he can easily make that left side his own and he'll be forever played there.this makes literally no sense
Looks like Steve Parish may have played himself
>>144197603tino will probably be behind rico lewis but he'll 100% start over tr*nt
>>144197617I don't want Gordon playing for England constantly because it fucks the club and he could easily do it. Livramento could improve with game time but he isn't going to get it. As for your other question>FodenMarch, 2023June, 2024June, 2022July, 2021Then there is the September 2020 when th ey were told not to go out and about and he did with Bellingham I think or Greenwood or somebody and he got blocked from playing. Not injured but an easy way to pull out of playing Iceland.>WatkinsDon't think he has>PalmerNovember, 2021October, 2023
>>144197681so literally only foden from your list of players has withdrawn on a regular basis and one of them never hasgreat point
>>144197402Watkins has only played 60 minutes a game this season. He’s obviously not fit. Foden has missed the last 2 games. Palmer has played 5 games including a full 90 against Palace the other day.
>Football journalist Mark Ogden discusses England interim manager Lee Carsley on the Football Daily podcast: "The job is his to lose really. If he does well in these games, then it will be his job. I'm not quite sure it's the standard you need to measure, whether he's qualified for the job.>"Let's be honest, it's Finland, Greece and the Republic of Ireland. But he knows the system and the FA do want someone who is part of the FA system, who has come through the ranks.>"I just wish the FA got on with it, just give him the job because, not to be brutal here, the England job is no longer the pinnacle of management, it's not.>"Maybe 20 to 30 years ago, it was all English managers aspired to. It was the one where they would have a good club career, win some trophies and become England manager. That's different now, the pinnacle of the game is the Champions League and the Premier League.>"But England aren't attracting those coaches. They're not going to get a Pep Guardiola or a Jurgen Klopp."When did the England job lose its status as the pinnacle of management? I want to say McLaren.
>>144197839lol have to love how english arrogance is eternal. finland, greece and RoI are all matches england could very conceivably lose.
>>144197858You think so?
>>144197699Only Foden has gotten enough call-ups. But now we have your permission to slag Foden off for faking injuries, not sure why you got so upset about it before.
>Do not use the term “cult” in reference to fellow supporters. Warnings and threadbans will occur for any who persist.Normal day on RedCafe
>>144197839>We can't get the two best managers in the world so let's just stick with youth coaches who'll do as they're toldGrimbergen
>>144197886>But now we have your permission to slag Foden off for faking injuries, not sure why you got so upset about it before.no idea who you're even talking about, you need to go outside
>>144197888They need to cultivate a change in culture with cultrating moderation.
>>144197877the last bout of friendlies, they lost to iceland, lost to brazil, and drew to belgium. the imperiousness of the FA thinking we just turn up and the opposition'll roll over is a big part of what holds england back
>>144197921>the imperiousness of the FA thinking we just turn up and the opposition'll roll over is a big part of what holds england backThat is literally integral to the FA and has been since 1872.
>>144197839>More from journalist Mark Ogden on the "attractiveness" of the England manager role: "It's still attractive, but it's a high or a low every two years. With the Premier League, it's every week. With the Champions League, it's every couple of weeks and you're going to Real Madrid, Barcelona, Milan. You're facing the best players, on the biggest stage. The Champions League is all the time.>"With England or internationals, it is every couple of years and I think it's such a long gap. Most of the top managers in the game now are quite young - late 40s, early 50s. They don't want to give it up. They don't want to give up the day-to-day involvement, even Carlo Ancelotti, who is in his 60s now.>"It's a job that you have to want to be a development guy really, be prepared to spend a long time not coaching and that's the difficulty, it doesn't challenge managers enough.>"If you could rattle off the names of the top five or six coaches in the football world right now, they're all club coaches and they're not managing international teams."Who even is the current best international manager? De La Fuente?
>>144197979Eddie Howe
No-one's talking about how all the Spurs players pulled out of the England side as well
>>144197888Cultchester Cultnited Cultstomers
>>144198092I've got no hope for England after the last euros. They looked shit even though they got to the final.Can't be fucked with it any more, just want my league games uninterrupted desu.
I hate international breaks
>>144198184I hate everything international.Also how's Gross getting on at Dortmund?
>>144198187Idk idc
>>144198193You only watch English leagues?I knew your country was cucked but that's a bit much.
>>144197839It's funny watching this because international football itself is so bad now and the world has collectively lost interest. Everyone hates the international break, and the last euros was some of the worst, most dispiriting football in a generation. But what happens next? Will they just divert resources from it surreptitiously? Maybe make it like the olympics and have it be youth-focused?
>"Mark Bosnich was a terrible professional,'' Ferguson wrote in the book.>"We played down at Wimbledon and Bosnich was tucking into everything: sandwiches, soups, steaks. He was going through the menu.>"I told him, `For Christ's sake, Mark, we've got the weight off you. Why are you tucking into all that stuff?'>"We arrived back in Manchester, and Mark was on mobile phone to a Chinese restaurant to order a takeaway.>"Is there no end to you?>"I just couldn't make an impact on him.''uhhh, based?
any fellow Group A CHADS looking forward to these nations league fixtures?
>>144198236>I thought he was a good goalkeeper at Villa, Mark Bosnich, but he came to us, he was so unprofessional. Honestly, it was ridiculous.>In shooting practice you normally take 15-20, after three shots he’s knackered...and I never realised, he couldn’t kick a football. I’d never seen anything like it. >“We actually played Everton away the first game of the season and none of us picked up on it, he couldn’t reach the halfway line. There was no wind, it was a perfect day.>“You look at his feet, size 14s, he was just kicking the floor all the time. Honestly, disappointing.”Didn't he have a massive coke habit on top of all thisAlso you'd think that famously cluey SAF would have known he was a fat lazy drug addict that couldn't kick a ball BEFORE signing him
>>144198092They've been doing it for ages now, there was that time when Harry Redknapp admitted some of his Spurs players would look for excuses to avoid their England duty.
>>144197471>Brandon Williams
>>144198092>No-one's talking about SpursFTFY
>>144178384>Onana is good.
>>144197413Honestly I'm surprised he hasn't. Ten Hag said that his squad wasn't fit enough explicitly due to the Euros/Copa America. Let's not forget that the "individual mistake" Mainoo made on the third goal was excused as him being tired.
Onana’s is good(er than Bosnich)
>>144178384Lol that post has 45 replies all clowning on Onana
>>144197471Williams, Depay, Martial, why can’t one time Man Utd players get a club?JLingz took half a year and De Gea took an entire year
