No surprise that Klopp's found a new job, but pity he's had to choose such a plasticky, non-traditional outfit as Red Bull.  The complete opposite of his previous clubs Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool with their rich histories.  Expect though he has a few clauses in his contract allowing him to step back into a manager's job, if the right one comes along.

Phew, glad to hear he has clauses in the contract, I have money on him to be next permanent England manager !

sorry to add any anxiety about your betting but it's only Alex 1's opinion that he has a clause in the contract (I'd be surprised if he doesn't though). The actual piece doesn't mention any.

I got that from German media. They were suggesting that the clause would allow him to take the German national job if it came came up, though the consensus is that Nagelsmann is doing a good job there.

I see Arteta was booked for touching the ball whilst it was in play yesterday. I said at the time, Corberan will be the only manager sent off for doing that.

Russell Martin wasn't on hand to flick his hair around, flare his nostrils and have a big hissy fit about things.

It will be interesting to see how Amorim will do at United after thrashing  city in the champions league and leaving Sporting after winning all 11 games in the league so far.

Amazing track record, but the last one had that too.

The first half between Poland and Scotland has to be one of the most entertaining games I have watched in years. Tempo is fantastic.
It is not the taking part, but the winning that counts.
