I guess I'm spoiled. We didn't lose, but if this is how bad we are without Haaland, Berg and Sørloth how the fuck are we gonna beat Cape Verde in the World Cup?

What do you know... We f*ck'd up... Agane!!

Tbf, we had plenty of chances, but so did Hungary .

Only fools think that using the same methods will lead to different results.

 

[LEWIS540]

We’re going to play him at the 6, aren’t we?

As close to a guaranteed failure as you could get at this point. He'd walk in about 4 months.

Not that I believe he'd ever take it.

He's been waiting for Deschamps to leave France for about 5 years, already. What's another 8 months.

Bus driver 'sacked for wearing Liverpool FC shirt to work'

Isaac Ullah feels "disrespected" after being fired

www.liverpoolecho.co.uk

A man says he has been sacked for wearing a Liverpool FC shirt to work. Isaac Ullah, 21, is originally from Toxteth but now lives in London.

Isaac had been working for the A1 Transport Recruitment agency as a bus driver. He took a shift on Saturday October 4 driving a rail replacement service and wore a Liverpool away shirt. He says he has worn this top on many other occasions with no issue. However, he went viral after the game.

Several Chelsea fans surrounded his bus and stopped him moving as he drove past Stamford Bridge stadium following the team’s 2-1 victory over Liverpool that evening. They began mocking him and banging on the windows. Several clips of the incident went viral that night across social media.

On Monday morning (October 6), Isaac was sacked by A1 and claims this was due to him going against the uniform policy. He believes this reasoning is unfair. A1 says the incident is being dealt with internally.

Sweden sack manager Jon Dahl Tomasson after World Cup qualifying defeat by Kosovo

Sweden are bottom of Uefa qualifying Group B after picking up only one point from their first four games and look set to miss out on the 2026 World Cup

www.independent.co.uk

Sweden have sacked manager Jon Dahl Tomasson after another humbling defeat by Kosovo left his team unlikely to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

After drawing their Group B opener with Slovenia last month, Sweden lost their next three games, twice against Kosovo and once against favourites Switzerland, to leave them bottom of the table and needing results to go their way to have any hope of making the 48-nation tournament in USA, Canada and Mexico next summer.

“The decision made by the association board is based on the fact that the men’s national team has not delivered the results we hoped for,” Swedish Football Association's chairman Simon Astrom said in a statement.

“There is still a chance of a playoff in March and our responsibility is to ensure that we have as optimal conditions as possible to be able to reach a World Cup playoff. In this, we assess that a new leadership is required in the form of a new coach.”

Tomasson, Denmark’s joint-record goalscorer, was named the first foreign coach of the Swedish men’s national side when he replaced the long-serving Janne Andersson in February 2024, having previously won the Swedish title with Malmo and impressed in charge of Blackburn Rovers.
