We may need to look into Cole Palmer's background too.

McKenna is a promising coach but not ready to handle the Manchester United juggernaut. He needs a few more seasons of top level management before he can manage a club as big as Manchester United. Manchester United specialises in appointing the right person at the wrong time: 2013: Moyes (when Mourin...

What a soap opera. First he resigned, then he changed his mind and decided to stay on. Then Barcelona took the decision out of his hands and fired him. Hansi Flick is the favourite to replace Xavi.

Sky Sports has reported that United have held talks with the representatives of Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna about bringing him back to United. If this is true, then ETH May face the same fate as his compatriot LVG whom United fired a few hours after managing the club in the FA Cup final (a match ...

I watched a documentary about penalties that jogged my memory about this thread. It featured interviews with several players who have taken part in penalty shoot outs - including Antonin Panenka (inventor of the penalty of that name). Panenka revealed that before the iconic penalty shoot out between...

I thought this style of management was being phased out?

To be fair he is only 2 years older than Ronaldo, and he plays for a Champions League team.

Pepe was included?! That dude will still be getting picked to play for Portugal in his 60s!

It is amazing what a change of environment can do for a player. I remember Lookman looking really raw at Fulham, Everton, and Leicester. Who can forget his disastrous attempt at a Panenka penalty for Fulham in the 98th minute with his team losing and facing relegation. He rightly gor criticised for ...

Olise is unlikely to get into this current France team. Who would Deschamps drop to accommodate him? World Cup and Champions League winner Coman? World Cup winners Griezmann and Dembele? Or two time World Cup finalists Mbappe?

We can use this thread to post squads and tournament updates.

His team got relegated and he is being disciplined for using his mobile phone while sitting on the subs bench.

Despite having a wretched season Manchester United ironically had 3 goals in Match of the Day’s top 🔝 9 goals of the season, and Garnacho won goal of the season. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qgmhQZzoy1s Bruno’s volley against Burnley and Rashford’s goal on the derby against Man City were the other ...

...and they want to live close to the training ground. There aren't many multi acre grassed areas in Mayfair or Kensington. e.g. Arsenal, Chelsea, and Spurs train in Hertfordshire, Surrey, and Middlesex respectively (despite being based in north and west London).

Here goes: Let us use the Premier League as our test case since that league has more SE players than any other league. The Premier League suspended most games to allow FA Cup matches between January 7-22. African players departed for AFCON in early January at the earliest. Let us use Frank Onyeka (B...
