Can Norwich, Burnley or Watford please show some signs of life and sink the Ev.
First club to be relegated after setting half a billion quid on fire. That should look good on their list of firsts.
To put it into perspective, only 21 managers in the top 4 divisions have been in place longer than 2.5 years. It's a long time and it isn't exactly news, Ralph had already said it before.
To kick off the new manager speculation I'll nominate Bo Svensson of Mainz. Danish like Ankersen and Kraft, obligatory passage through the Red Bull system at Liefering and contract ends in 2024.
Chelsea look like losing Rüdiger and Christensen on free transfers, wonder if they will be interested in Salisu. Wouldn't even cost them any money, just Broja and Southampton native Colwill.
He turns down Ghana because the coach tried to extort money from him in order to call him up when he was in the under-17s and the Ghana FA refused to do anything about it when he brought it to their attention. So now he doesn't want anything to do with them.
The Athletic jumping the gun and reporting something that wasn't yet true still seems the most plausible explanation to me. You'd think a journo would ask Ralph or Semmens when McCarthy and Stephens' contract actually expire.
2 years used to be the ideal point to sell, but tv money being what it is I think these days it's just 1 year. Suspect that at 2 years we price players out of moves, Tadic with 2 years left in 2018 was the last time we sold a first 11 player with more than a year left.
