Some media have released that Tomas Tuchel has been officially appointed as the England national team coach and he can now work on selecting some of the players needed, but for certainty about this matter I have not checked further. The names that have been rumored to be the England national team coach are indeed many and quite competent such as Jorgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola, but both coaches seem not interested in the job.

Only Tomas Tuchel is available and he is opening the way for negotiations, there is much better hope for Tomas Tuchel as long as he can utilize quality young players and you are right because we hope his coaching style is not boring like Southgate.
Walker put it very well, it doesn't matter who is the England manager as long as he can deliver results. And he thinks Tuchel is a good fit for the job because he can work with the best players, he proved that at Bayern, PSG and Chelsea (with whom he won the Champions League, beating City in the final). He has a lot of experience and he seems very excited about getting the job. There will be those who are unhappy about that, but Walker is right that in the end, only the results will matter.
Well I hope Thomas Tuchel deliver for England National team however club management is different from handling the national team, it's obvious he has a good track records on the club level I hope he can replicate those records into the national team, England is blessed with many talented and quality players though had been playing well in all European competitions, however failure to win trophies after reaching finals has been a big setback which I believe Thomas Tuchel should address, Southgate did a good on the team hopefully Tuchel continue from where the former stop and improve on the team and maintain the current squad.

Real Madrid have shown interest in Alphonso Davies since last season, but they failed to sign him. This season, the squad managed by Ancelotti is having problems in the defensive area, Davies is their main target especially since the player has the potential to leave Bayern Munich for free after his contract expires next summer. Manchester United's chances of getting Davies' signature are very small because they have to compete with Real Madrid because every player has the desire to defend Real Madrid, especially since the club has shown interest in him, it is very unlikely that he will refuse the offer.
It would be good if they did that, they need a good defender, when I saw them play in the UCL against Lille there was a big gap in the defence and the gap was reflected everywhere, on the wings, in the middle, everywhere, I don't know if Anvelotti now wants to build a wall with pure defence, leave the midfield a bit and play on the counterattack, because obviously they need a good full-back and centre-back, I would like it to be a young defender , who has almost no experience so that he can polish himself with the team, because those types of players are the ones who come out hungry and always remain in the starting eleven.

I don’t believe a single word of this. Real Madrid are very much interested in signing Trent in January. I think Carlo Ancelotti is being strategic about his future signings and wants to keep it a secret until they are ready to inform the public, they did the same thing with Kylian Mbappe before signing him. I suggest you take this statement from Ancelotti with a pinch of salt.

Seems you know Anceloti more than everyone right now, even fans don't know this. I remembered during last season, he was asked about his position and opinion on Kyliab Mbade and he says that is not what is important right now, what's is important is the team but under the ground, he was busy chasing him, he could go to any club but Real Madrid wanted him badly which later was agreed on in this season and he is here already.

Now that they need players, Trent would have been useful for them since some of their players are off to injuries but it could also be that the money the club asked was too much on Trent that's why they want to waist for summer and it's already here, very soon his contract is going to expire and Real Madrid will have him as a free agent without strength. Instead of Real Madrid to spend money, they will rather help a player and sign him free like they did with Mbape.

It’s been reported earlier today that Thomas Frank may be the replacement for Erik Ten Hag should Manchester United fire him. But this recent statement from Erik Ten Hag has me believing that this could just be rumours and the club has assured him of his place as Manchester United boss.


I have no problem if they want to finally sack Erik ten Hag as manager of Manchester United but, are these names below upgrades to Erik ten Hag? You have to bring in someone better than him to handle the job otherwise you'll find these club sinking down below yet again.
Like I always say, Manchester United fans are no different from Nigeria citizens. They really deserve a Graham Potter or Gareth Southgate to send them down below the relegation zones. Thomas Frank might be doing well with Brentford United but he's not that guy for Manchester United. He is not even a better manager than Michael Carrick and Ruud van Nistelrool.

The renewn of Vlahovic is not certain.
We have some rumors about a potential interest in Juventus in Zikzee from Manchester United.

If the interest will be proven real it means that Vlahovic will most likely sold.
No way Juventus can afford to buy from Premier League without selling.

Ten Hag is not yet sacked and if he gets to improve his performance before the end of the season, I don’t think he’ll be sacked again. They have some trust in him that’s why they’ve kept him all this times he has been fumbling and losing matches, even the ones he suppose to have won easily. The Southgate and Potter move to replace Eric Ten Hag may also remain as rumour by end of the season if Ten Hag performance is nothing short of impressive by that time.

News about around Manchester United: https://x.com/DeadlineDayLive/status/1847294660282134825
The news is that Manchester United are in contact with former Dortmund coach - Edin Terzić he is the closest candidate of the other candidates to replace Ten Hag.

Edin Terzić led Dortmund to the Champions League final last season despite ultimately failing and resigning from coaching, but it was a good achievement despite only finishing top 5 in the Bundesliga.

What do you think? Will Erik Ten Hag be sacked if he loses against Brentford? Or will he be retained for the next match?


Edin Terzic has stated that he will rest after he resigned as Dortmund coach at the end of last season, so I think the possibility of him coaching Manchester United is also very small at the moment, besides that we have heard a lot of media that continue to link several coaches including Zidane and Tuchel to replace Ten Hag, but isn't it just a rumor without being happen at all?
Ten Hag is currently under pressure after a streak of bad results that he has gotten, but I think after the INEOS meeting a few days ago which also still retains and entrusts ten hag as coach until now, then I think it is unlikely we see coach transition will happen in the near time, even when they may lose to Brentford later.

Ancelotti says that they don't need any signing in January because of managing a similar condition quite well in the previous season.



I was expecting this statement from him though so not surprising at all.  Grin  But I'll give him that. He is really good at handling this kind of situations by trying new players there like I said before.

Then it seems like even if they agree terms with Trent for a free transfer as it is rumoured recently, they won't push for bringing him in January already. Do you think they should sign any player in January?

As a Chelsea fan, I'm happy to see him back in England. It's been a long time since he helped my favorite team win the UCL, and he's now coaching England. I'm pretty excited to see how he will perform, and it's most probable he'll call up Reece and Chilwell to join his squad. But the very important thing is that the rumor about him being linked to Manchester United was fake.

So, Manchester United can take Southgate or Potter as their candidate to replace Ten Hag. lol. It makes me happy Tuchel is not at United after all. Hopefully, they will end up with Southgate/Potter as their new manager to replace Ten Hag.  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Thomas Tuchel new assignment at England is a very big and important one for him. With the current number of quality players from England, he’ll have variety of options to chose from and select the best players in order to come out victorious in his matches. He may drop some players and add some need ones. With the large squad he can chose from, I don’t think he should have any excuse of not being able to win the World Cup as he has promised them he will.

Ten Hag is not yet sacked and if he gets to improve his performance before the end of the season, I don’t think he’ll be sacked again. They have some trust in him that’s why they’ve kept him all this times he has been fumbling and losing matches, even the ones he suppose to have won easily.

It seems that Real Madrid is very serious about strengthening their defense after several senior players were diagnosed with long-term injuries. A series of injuries have left Real Madrid's defence short of personnel, so depth in that area has become a concern. The January transfer window will be used to bring in previously targeted players. Aymeric Laporte, Castello Lukeba and Vitor Reis are considered to be able to strengthen their defensive area, while Real Madrid are also trying to persuade Alphonso Davies to join them after his contract with Bayern Munich expires at the end of the season.

Source: Gilabola.com

Even before their defenders got injured, Real Madrid started the season with unstable defense, but they have good midfielders and attackers which made to show less concern about the defensive part of the team, but now that injury has exposed them, they need to act very fast because Barcelona is not willing to take it low with them in the Laliga this season, and this season’s Champions League also come with a lot of competition.

I also heard a rumor that Madrid is considering a move for Arsenal main man William Saliba, if they can get him it will be good for them but maybe because they know that Arsenal is not willing to let him go which is why they decide to look for other options. Madrid also need a top nine that is reliable because the forced nine Mbappe is playing might affect them along the way.
Real Madrid has no other choice but to act quickly to buy players to fill the empty positions in its defense left by injured players, especially on the right side which currently only relies on Lucas Vasquez, there must be a second layer considering the many important matches that must be completed well and also to catch up on the points behind Barcelona in La Liga.

There are many rumors about transfers planned by Real Madrid in the upcoming transfer market, apart from those mentioned by @mamesso and you, there is also an article that says Los Blancos want Tottenham player Pedro Porro. However, all of that is just a rumor, there is no definite clarity. We have to wait in the transfer market for which players will be brought to the Bernabeu later.

Pogba definitely looks for a good comeback story because he had a bad chance with all of this and he is not going to like just retiring, he wants to come back and play which would mean he is going to end up with some good teams.

Marseille may look like the best candidate, but they are also the first one to react to news of Pogba terminating his contract with Juventus, meaning we are going to see other teams have some time to offer him something as well. He can't join a team right now, most nations don't have even free agency open, so we are going to end up with a lot of offers for him after a while when the teams get some more time to check him out. Plus teams will need to see how fit he is as well, he hasn't played in a while after all.
Surely he wants to have a good experience after he returns from the sanction he received for using doping (either intentionally or unintentionally). He will try to be able to play well at the beginning of his return, going to Ligue 1 is not bad news especially he joins one of the big clubs in Ligue 1. But of course he has to try hard to be able to return his performance quickly, because after all he will need to adapt again to return to his best game. I want to see where he will join and also whether he will be able to quickly find his best game or he will lose his best game because he is not on the field for a long time.

Madrid rarely signs new players in the winter transfer window. Their coach, Ancelotti, is still there. So, I wouldn't be surprised if he said that. The true Madrid fans know that recruiting a new player during the winter transfer window is just a myth. And the good thing is that he is also confirming that Alaba is coming back very soon.

At this point, I'm not even feeling surprised anymore if he says that he wouldn't sign a new player. I know some may be contradicted by his choice, but this can be a signal from him if we're going to win our 16th UCL trophy. Despite the fact that our bench is already thin after hammered with so many injuries.

Pep Guardiola is bored in Manchester City, and he is going to leave. In fact, any coach and player will leave the team one day, just like what happened to Klopp. Even after the good performance he had in Liverpool for a year, he had to leave and take some rest. There's the same theory about Guardiola, but this time, Guardiola is not going to leave his job, and he still wants to stay working as a coach but in the other teams.
Maybe that's impossible but I wish to see Guardiola working in Barcelona again.

Guardiola has said that he would like to return to Barcelona one day, but it seems unlikely in the near future. He also seems unlikely to become a manager for another English club as it would obviously hurt the feelings of Man City fans (in fact, if he really wants a challenge then becoming Man United coach will really give him an adrenaline rush, but that is clearly impossible for him). My guess is Guardiola will be eyeing the national team coaching position or one of the Serie A teams.

Walker is quite correct in his words that the end justifies the means "results''. It doesn't matter whether Tuchel is an English tactician or not; what matters is what international title the England national team wins in the end. However, the last time the England national team won a title to their name was in the 1966 FA World Cup hosted on their soil. Since then till now no other title has been won by them. Instead, it was runner-up they had in the 2020 European Championship they lost to Italy in the final, and in the 2024 European Championship, they lost to Spain.

However, all these coaches England had since they started participating in international football are all English men, and none of them won the trophy for them. Having a change of coach, not an English man, is not a bad idea since no English coach has won an international title for them.

Having said that, Tuchel is not the first English man to manage the England squad. Sven Goran Erikson and Fabio Capello were the two non-Englishmen to head England before Tuchel came on board currently to be the head coach of England.

Plus there are less competition at France for PSG as well, whereas there are so many competitions for City like Arsenal and Liverpool. So, I believe Pep going to PSG would be ideal fit for both sides and could see him manage for another five years at least.
Pep would be boring to manage PSG, in order to know their strength, they have to wait for match in Champions League.

It's interesting to see his stats, he only manage three top teams that playing in different leagues. Is Pep has an intention to collect various trophies? he should move to Serie A then, Inter or Juventus are two top teams in there.

In order to win Champions League, PSG first task is to bring Mbappe back.
In terms of challenges, of course, Guardiola will be more challenged and motivated to coach in England than Ligue 1 or Serie A, The fierce competition with big teams in the English league certainly presents an extraordinary sensation by continuing to innovate to maintain the performance of the team, but by coaching PSG, I think Guardiola does not need to work hard in handling their squad considering the competition that has been too easy in the league so far,  If Pep moves to PSG, of course the main focus may be more on the Champions League, because Ligue 1 trophies has not offered a strong challenge so far, but if Pep really wants to become a record-breaking coach by coaching 5 teams in five different leagues, of course it is likely that he will try to coach the teams in Ligue 1 and also Serie A later, because so far he has managed to achieve glory in 3 teams from 3 different leagues in european.



Pep Guardiola is bored in Manchester City, and he is going to leave. In fact, any coach and player will leave the team one day, just like what happened to Klopp. Even after the good performance he had in Liverpool for a year, he had to leave and take some rest.

I think it is not more a rumor, it is confirmed by many sources including Fabrizio Romano, and even wikipedia took the news that he will kick start another journey by January 2025.

This is a good news for the England national team because they need an experience coach to make use of the good players they have in their squad, and I think Tuchel will do his best because this is a chance for him to add more titles to his name as a coach; World Cup will be him main aim which if he did well, they can achieve that because England have quality players that if he used them well, they can win any title globally.

Seeing the number of their players who are injured at this time of course will be the right step for Madrid to be active in the transfer market later, so far some defenders have had to pull over for a long time due to injuries and make Ancelotti have to rotate and also alternatives to keep their defense strong at this time, there are several names that continue to be associated with madrid and as you mentioned Aymeric Laporte, Castello Lukeba and Vitor Reis have the experience and qualities that can have a positive impact on their defensive line later, but I think the name is just an alternative that they will recruit if Madrid fails to get Davies, Trent Arnold and also Saliba who are actually Ancelotti main targets in the January transfer market later.
