He'll have Pedro McFernandez, Juan McRodriguez, Pepe McOlazabal and still manage to fall out with all of them.

Next it will be Sam Allardyce or Mike Walker linked to the Scotland job.

Ronald Koeman is out of a job too.

See Portugal have appointed another manager who’s promised to pick Ronaldo for every game

To be expected from an FA that thought Roberto Martinez was the right guy after his Belgium effort though I guess

They might as well just appoint Ronaldo as Player/manager. If nobody's got the cojones to tell him he's finished at this level and drop him, then just let him ruin his own legacy.

That's such a shame. Going down boys and I will laugh my cock off when you do (although we'll probably get taken to court if they're relegated)

Just noticed that Bournemouth hired Marco Rose.

That’s an annoyingly good move, although there’s always a chance he won’t adapt.

Trivago guy winning friends early doors

“Klopp starts Germany reign by threatening to quit”

But more amusingly

“This is the pinnacle, the absolutely high point of my footballing career as coach. I will give everything I have got."

Fucking narcissist.

"If you behave badly and don't leave my family in peace then I'll be gone, I'll just turn away," Klopp said.

"I know there are other countries where national team coaches are treated even worse.

"I'm not doing this job for myself, I'm doing it for you. I'm taking this job even though I've seen how you've treated Julian Nagelsmann and Thomas Tuchel.

"I love this job but I am always ready to call it quits if need be."

Both Nagelsmann and England boss Tuchel came under media scrutiny after their exits from the World Cup, with Tuchel criticised for his defensive tactics and substitutions as the Three Lions let slip a 1-0 lead in their semi-final defeat by Argentina.

Klopp's appointment was widely expected for weeks and his contract will see him through to the 2030 World Cup, co-hosted by Spain, Portugal and Morocco.

"Jurgen Klopp is not going to have any 'career' after the national team," he added.

Quite a strange situation at Woking with Defoe and Paul Bracewell.

Unfortunately had to find the cut that didn't have that diving cheating slipping kopite mentioned... dunno how he got in there except for the large red following over here.

Anyway, will be interesting to see what Zizou can do with France, can he take them to a trophy at the Euros? Or will it be atrophy lol.
