Let me get this straight.

Women don’t know as much about coaching because the woman’s game hasn’t been around for as long?
I'll bite

Southgate has been involved in TOP level sport for 30 years plus.

That doesn't mean he dies know more, but it does imo mean that generally those involved for longer will have a better grasp.

Before we get too carried away. How many games have we won when we weren't the favourites in the last 3 years.

For both men and women. Anyone know?
 
Rumours that the Saudi league have approached UEFA with a view to having there teams being able to play in the champs league from 2025.

I think I pointed out that possibility when they started spending. What is it, wild card teams from around the world. Don't like it but it will happen. Interesting if they then have to comply with UEFA FFP

I imagine that they'd have to. Or FFP would have to be scrapped. You can't have teams playing in the same competition under different rules.

Supporting a team that has half a dozen FFP charges hanging over their heads. I cannot really comment 😁👍
 
Is it though. It may be but until someone gets a shot we do not know how transferable the knowledge sets are.
Yes I agree .
But you could say that about any manager.
The England job is nothing like club management.

I am not against her having a go.
But let’s be honest GS has had some terrible stick ,but in the grand scheme of things he’s been very successful.

Will be the death of the tournament if they are included - the clubs in Europe will certainly oppose it and it would just start of the European Super League talk again

And they will have to comply with FFP which will negate the only reason they have the players

Agree it would be only if Southgate stood down at the end of his contract
 
Seems the FA have already said she is going no where. Also I mentioned she has got her teams to two Major finals. It’s actually three having got Holland to the last World Cup final.

Not likely but if she was offered a job at a premier League club do you think that the fa could be seen to stand in the way if such an historic moment
 
I’m in the belief that we are years away from a women being given a managers role at any professional team in the football league

Massive risk for any team to take and also a huge risk for the women to take as well

How does that change then. Crowds may get bigger, transfer fees may go up but the players are not going to get more elite, you will not get anyone with a better record than taking teams to the last 4 finals of competitions she was managing in so when does it become the right time or are women going to be barred from entering management in the men's game forever.
