Also, Gerrard is almost nailed-on to take over from Klopp in 2024 (I think that's the end of his contract) so it could be good for him to get a couple of seasons of Premier League management under his belt before that.
He'd be taking a risk - he'd have to perform above expectations with a much bigger focus on him.

I'm up for Gerrard at lollerpool if he can prove himself in a proper league.

Then maybe starting at a small team like Tottenham isnt a bad idea!

Nuno may be a BTEC Mourinho with links to a dubious Super Agent - but he does have an awesome beard.

Although of all the names that have been linked with the job, I would have gone for Sarri tbh. That Europa League final when we took Arsenal apart limb from limb was probably still the best football I've seen Chelsea play. OK we had to go through some dirge to get there, but dirge is a step up for Spurs these days.

Grand effort, Austria. They made Italy look pretty ordinary for large parts of that.

Good to see Denmark finally figuring out how to convert some of their millions of chances. Wales looked pretty poor, defence a shambles.

Chiesa goal for Italy was a beauty too.

Denmarks Q final is on mother in laws bday 🤔 need to suggest a birthday lunch instead of dinner so can watch the game 🇩🇰

Watched it while camping on a Samsung Tab thing. Really enjoyed Denmark, entertaining, Wales were utter shit though, bottled it, but they are all young they won't be such a push over in a couple of years, progress at least. I genuinely hope they build on what they have achieved. They kept the tournament favourites to 1.0, earned their last 16 place.

All my accas out the window. Got a tenner on Ronaldo top scorer at 12/1 so that's looking good at least.

I see the Benitez Saga continues, this time with a banner being left near to where Benitez lives in Liverpool with an obvious threat attached.

Not acceptable and part of me is thinking it could have been left to drum out the story more, or even be left by rival fans to make it dirty the waters.

We're not being linked with anyone else fresh now, but it is dragging on still...

Emma Hayes - being Chelski womens manager does not a good commentator make.

I think she is great except for a few weird pronunciations. Clearly does her research which is more than can be said for most of the male co comms. There was some talk earlier this year of her moving into men's coaching as she is so highly regarded.

I didn't think she was that bad, in the context of it being ITV, which is terrible overall.
