Pep + Kane: the serial winner vs the serial loser. The unstoppable force vs the immovable object
😂😂😂😂
Immovable object already won agains Koman this year. Pep is the only chance for Kane to win something.
You've convinced me I need to see the conclusion to this
Kane even defeated Neverkusen's curse!
He'd have to drop Kane
Anyone suggesting Big Sam or Steve Bruce is being incredibly unimaginative.
Give it to Big Sam AND Steve Bruce.
Go for a super-team of managers who think they should've been offered a big club job circa 2005 huh
@@chlcrk
A committee of Bruce, Allardyce, Pulis et al
@@chlcrk I like your ambition.
@@BenBebbington ooh Pulis, nice
Given Pulis is Welsh I can't see any conflict of interest 😂
Thoughts on a silly video like 'predicting the next generation of pundits' ?
Oh my word, he HAS to do this lol
Bruno Fernandez will be a pest for all of the Lusophones.
Next generation of football pundits is a great idea!!!
Harry Kane, Kevin De Bruyne, Virgil Van Dijk, Jordan Henderson.
Possibly Casemiro but he'll probably go back to Brazil or Spain even if he doesn't go into coaching.
We need to promote this so much
Walter Winterbottom sounds like a Roald Dahl character.
Sounds like a Harry Potter character
Sounds like a Marvel character.
Sounds like a WWE name
Serena Weigman!
Ignorance is bliss.
Give it to lil Rishi Sunak. Likely to be available later this year, and has experience at national level. England would never lose a game simply because he would deny it had ever happened.
Yeah, that initial picture for "Sean Dyche" absolutely mudered me.
Dyche is a good coach
World class coach
I suddenly got a great idea for a FM save lmao
@@condlaeirkrsrma7069 Jesse, we need to coach!
He is the danger tbh
As a Hungarian, I would feel gutted if Marco Rossi would leave for the England football national team.
How good is Marco Rossi as a manager?
I've watched several managers and players leave my team for "bigger" jobs and what hurts the most is when they aren't given the love you have for them at their new club, that is inevitable if this happens.
Én is
I’d like to put my hat in the ring in my football manager save I’ve won 32 Gibraltar league titles 24 Rock Cups 26 Pepe Reyes cups and a Europa league title 😅
More qualified than Southgate was when he first got the job 😂 go for it mate
Why lie seriously m8 life that bad
@@bryanmorrison2396 Jesus Christ it's a joke mate. He's not actually suggesting his Football Manager save game serves as qualification for England Manager.
@@GlockasYou're right, but go easy on him. Check the photo, I'd lose my sense of humour too.
Kieran McKenna is Northern Irish, not English. But I reckon one day he’ll complete the hat trick of ex-Ipswich England managers
He was born in London though, so would still qualify to play for the England national team, therefore I personally would consider to include under the English category, even though he is actually Northern Irish as you say lol
@@Alfie_1to play? He's a manager
@@John_Kennedy27 Well he won't be playing again, but he did play at spurs as a youngster before injury struck.
@@John_Kennedy27 no kidding, I was talking about how, in football terms, he can be considered English.
@@Alfie_1 He Can't, he can be considered British, there's a difference.
I think what a lot of people don't understand about Eddie Howe, is that it takes time for him to work with players to get what he wants out of them. I don't think his football would be best suited for the England job due to how little time he'd actually get to mould the players and their fitness levels. Amazing manager, just more suited to club football🤝🏻
That's an interesting point actually. Shows the difference between club and international management.
That's why the vast majority of managers are hopeless when it comes to international management. Rossi would be a quality choice but the FA is too old fashioned and is a job for the boys kinda place. It's gonna be Potter or Lampard
I do wonder if it's the same with Pep too
All the English players already know English football though, they have nothing to learn from him
Really good point
2 Video Ideas:
1. Has Pep destroyed football?
You spoke this briefly during the video about how football has become boring, but since Pep has his teams frequently playing it safe and reducing risk, and many other managers following in his footsteps, could he be blamed for the loss of quality of football?
2. Analysis of Blue Lock. This one may seem quite out of the blue (see what I did there?) but hear me out. Blue Lock is a series about how the Japanese football Federation needs to Japan to improve their National Team. In the hopes of doing this, they create an insane project called “Blue Lock.” This show takes a DRASTICALLY different approach to soccer than what is conventionally accepted.
If Pep manages England, i really think it would come home for you guys. Can you imagine Foden actually balling in that team with the other attacking and midfield options you guys have.
He wouldn't be scared if he got to the semi finals or final.
No chance, pep wouldn't be able to make transfers so wouldn't be a good international manager
Only problem is the English defense. If Pep can sort it with the limited options available then kudos to him.
EH, I don’t think that’s a given. International football is much different from regular league football, and one of the most important things in International football is the ability to adapt on the fly in match regularly. As great as Pep is, in the past he’s shown his decision-making to counter opponents were lacking sometimes. Not to mention Pep would need more time to have an international side adapt to his tactics and methods.
you cant spend silly amouts of money in iternstional football
Didier Deschamps would never take the England job. I can never see Luis Enrique being enthusiastic about managing the 3 Lions. It would be interesting to see Pep Manage the Dutch or English national team though.
How on Earth is he on the list? Feels like there is no way Deschamps would be up for the England job
Deschamps is not even interested. Zidane only wants to go back to Marseilles.
@@davidbowie5023 and Juventus too apparently if there was an open job.
@@senorpython2262 isn't Allegri leaving? Zidane may be on his way to Italy then
Lol Pep started only 2 English players in the CL final for a reason, he knows they're not talented enough to achieve anything w/out superior foreigners carrying them. Started 6 Spaniards for Barcelona
Also worth pointing that, whilst I'm not a fan of his, Howe is also managing the never explicitly mentioned but always present threat of bonesaws.
It should have been Bielsa, as he would have been perfect for England. He has proven track record of improving nations teams which he done with Argentina, Chile and now we see with Uruguay. Bielsa ball with the pool of talent England would have elevated England to a new level and Bielsa is a tactical genius who would react to changes by the opposition, unlike Southgate
Great manager but I wouldn’t trust an Argentinian to actually try and win with England, especially if we play Argentina in a World Cup
@@sirsurnamethefirstofhisnam7986 jingoistic nonsense. I wouldn’t an English manager to win anything because they are the special needs coaches of world football.
As an Argentine I think it would be hilarious to see one of our own manage you guys
He would be a great choice, alas I don't believe he would ever be interested in managing the Three Lions.
@@MrSmith1984 I think you are wrong because Bielsa loved working in England and if England had offered him the role he would have taken it. It just the FA lacked ambition and forward thinking and kept failure Southgate because he was safe.
Liam Rosenior is looking for a new job 🐯🐯🐯
Wayne & Liam super rams dream team!
Plymouth is looking for a new manager and he has Devon connections
Assistant for Pep so he can learn from him and then come back to us 🐯
The continuous Freddy Adu bit is so so funny I wait for it every time
Klopp is the perfect candidate. He's one of the best man managers out there, his style of play suits pretty much every talent in the England squad, he's extremely well respected , his command of English is impeccable. The one criticism of Klopp at club level is that he could get burnt out and his teams could struggle at times. This won't be a problem with a national team job. Having just left Liverpool, he might find his familiarity with English players could also work in his favour. The FA should go all in for him.
A German an Argentine or a Scot will never manage England.... absolutely unthinkable
If we win the Euro's, or even if we still look like one of best teams but don't win, then I can't see why Southgate would leave without having one last run at the World Cup. I'm sure he understands the opportunity he has in managing an England squad that could actually realistically win a World Cup.
It won’t happen, but I think Thomas Frank will one day be a very successful international manager, possibly even a trophy winner, and England appointing him would be a great decision if they just so happened to miraculously go down that route.
Good shout
it did happen in one of my FM saves lmao
As a Brentford got to respect him for the most part. What I would say is that he is probably quite similar to Southgate. He is good at getting the best out of his players and creating a good group dynamic, but probably lacks a bit in terms of innovative tactics. Would imagine Frank would invite similar controversy to Southgate, as he is very loyal to players even if the are in bad form (ie Maguire.)
You should Look up the meaning of the words won‘t and will.
@@quizzical2023 I meant that I understand he won’t get the England job, but he will become a great international manager
Kieran McKenna is from N Ireland.
Born in London
@@charliemilroy6497born in London, raised in Northern Ireland and played for Northern Ireland youth teams
We will have him at Ipswich for another few years thanks. Though managers leaving Ipswich to go to England (Alf Ramsey & Bobby Robson) have done reasonable
@@SuperKinlo I don't want him to leave but he's more English than David Johnson was Scottish!
@@charliemilroy6497 think his next move will be another club, if we start next season well then he will be even more on established prem teams shortlists
@@charliemilroy6497 If you asked him if he was an Englishman, I think he would say no...
I am not gonna lie but Guardiola becoming England manager is unthinkable. However, I can propose England to hire Vincenzo Montella as England's new manager. Dude is being viewed with extreme hostilities by fans for losing 1-6 to Austria in an earlier friendly (which raised question over our team for Euro 2024), even though he does not have the ability to address the problems caused by the TFF.
For me, Steve Cooper sounds like a reasonable option. He’s previously worked as a coach in England’s youth teams so he knows most of the current generation. His time at Forest shouldn’t be remembered from the last few months but rather from the rise to the play offs and surviving in the Prem despite the owner buying 30 new players in their first season
yeah he is but I think that the point is that many people would find his CV unimpressive so that'd be pointed at whenever he doesn't do well.
not just managing england youth but also winning a trophy with the england youth
honestly id take him back at forest but the england job would also be interesting for him too
@@maciejbala477 Southgate’s CV was even less impressing when he started
@esior8284 yeah and he never gets any stick
Guardiola has built his entire career on big money signings + working with players of with the highest level of technical skill. Two criteria which in effect disqualify him for the England job. And for the first criterion, probably rules him out of international coaching jobs - maybe he might consider Brazil or Spain. But those jobs pay far less than club football management.
Pep has managed billionaire clubs and the richest in there leagues , that won't translate in club football
Great vid as always Alfie, Stockport County could be an even greater vid?
Alfies humour is 2nd to none in a world where football takes itself far too seriously. Rock on Alf!
great and interesting video Alfie
Never stop doing these kinds of videos. Thank you
Hey Alfie, could you maybe start uploading some of your long form content as a podcast to spotify for instance? I would love to listen to your videos while on a walk but can't right now. Love the channel!
He could put his intros out as a podcast there that long 😁

@@thecommentguy8366 Born in London but also raised in Northern Ireland. Parents also Northern Irish. So yeah he is Northern Irish.

@@rushgreen6244nope. Northern Irish.
Sitting back relaxing ready to enjoy another great vid. 🙂👍
WERE GETTING PEP. Thanks for this unexpected dose of Copium today.
Day 3 of asking Alfie to make a video of the 7 greatest sell on clauses in football history, as seen with Abdul Fatawus permanent move to Leicester netting his youth team in Ghana team about 7-8 million Euros
I can't imagine Pep managing a team he doesn't get to coach week by week, or make his own signings
Technically you do your own signings, but instead of buying them you have to see if they fit the requirements to represent the country
Guardiola everyday because England have always lacked that tactical mastermind to elevate the players who can think in game and make great subs. Pep has even said he would be open to coaching England, because as Catalonia nationalist he has no interest in coaching Spain. Klopp would be my second choice but I doubt as a proud German he would take England ahead of Germany. And the idiots who say Mourinho just because he is a big name. His style is defensive and relies on good defenders and defensive midfielders and this is England’s weak point, so an attacking coach is better suited to the players England has because that is England’s strength.
Making great subs like taking off De Bruyne and Haaland before a penalty shoot out?
@@dj71162 the players asked to be substituted because they had no more energy. So he was forced to make that substitution. How do you not know that?
Why would Klopp as a German not take the England job? Nagelsmann just extended his contract with Germany so the job won't be available any time soon anyway
@@Delboy0 Well I would have said no, and stay on the field. He did the same thing in 2022 against Madrid; took off De Bruyne with 20 minutes left and 1-0 up; lost the game 3-1. I don't care if the players say they're tired; they have to stay on in such a high stakes match. It's bad management.
what do you mean, we have 97 right backs
I think people don't realise how different tournament management is to league football
Gareth Southgate can be quite reductionist but that works in international football
Great video, I think your spot and and enjoyed your left-field suggestions too. The old adage of making sure you have "some one better lined up" has never been more appropriate, I think people do forget just how bad the England set up was before him, and the complete change in the attitude towards England from players and fans alike, has in many ways occurred thanks to a mature and carefully thought out stewardship under Gareth. Yes sometimes we all crave more gung-ho football but to be honest its actually very rare gung-ho football wins international trophies. Italy, Spain, Germany, Argentina France have all won world cups and not actually been gung-ho, Brazil get a reputation for silky skills but anyone that saw US 1994 saw a very gritty team and then in 2002 with a ridiculously talented team they averaged 1.9 goals if you exclude the two routs of Costa Rica and China, so hardly gung-ho. Whether fans like it or not, modern international football is about control of the ball and pulling other teams out of shape, or else its about losing as the other team does exactly that to you.
The only national team Pep would ever manage is the Catalán national team if there was one 😅
It's an unofficial one
Alfie, the biggest criticism of Southgate isn't that "he doesn't play expansive or attack minded football." Rather, he doesn't make adjustments and freezes in the big moments against teams they damn well should have beaten. Good shouts on Howe, Rossi, and Dyche though.
Considering Mourinho, I have to say that, considering the number of games international players have to play, a national team manager who plays a more economical football might be a good choice for a tournament like the World Cup and the Euros. It might not be pretty, but results might just happen.
Como have risen from Serie D to Serie A in six seasons, you should make a 'rise of' about them. Love the content!
In terms of the context of international football, and dealing only with names that are currently unemployed, here are my picks for England:
1) Graham Potter: obviously. English, moderate success, and he may emulate Roberto Martinez (underachieved in the EPL, seemingly got his mojo in international football)
2) Ole Gunnar Solksjaer: Same with Potter and Martinez, his strengths maybe in international football. And with England's current pool of players, he has a couple of young hungry studs to work with, which is the type of player he found success with at Man United
3) Jurgen Klopp: if they can somehow convince Klopp, he IS the perfect choice right now. I think gegenpressing would be a nightmare with the young players of England right now. Only question is, will clubs allow their players to play in such a taxing system instead of recovering for their individual pushes in the league and Europe
Graham Potter has already been unofficially offered the job by the FA.
Southgate and the FA will end his contract early and Potter will be in place for the Nations League match against Ireland in September.
Source: dude trust me
@@F1Krazy yeah but when it plays out like that just remember me.
Alfie,
An excellent video as always.
You should do a follow up video on the FAI and add in Irish football.
The FAI and the national team is even worse than you could imagine. Cant get a manager, CEO scandal and resignation, drop in rankings, divided fanbase on style of play and still no manager. You would enjoy but be horried. We have England in Nations league.
The League of Ireland is flourishing in terms of attendances and recently went professional. All this is without any FAI/government support.
As a Portsmouth fan, I'm very happy for Gary O'Neil. When he played for us, he was England under 21 captain, so he was recognised as a leader from an early age. It's a shame he never got an England cap but he was playing during a competitive time.
Maybe England should hire South Americans like Marcelo Bielsa or Ricardo Gareca as coach since they have the ability to nurture and improvise talents.
There's a lot better choices that are either prem managers or ex prem managers. Steve Cooper ect ect
FUTURE EPISODE SUGGESTION: players who would have gained more caps but for a superstar. Or has this 1 been done? As an Evertonian, Leyton Baines would have gained many more caps had he not been born similar time to Ashley Cole. He has the most assists in the Premiership for a defender: in a Mpyes team (not the most expansive of coaches). In Wright being in Shearer's era would be another example. As for foreign teams: who cares? Luckily Alfie does and could come up with an interesting list
Southgate has done a tremendous job & anyone who thinks differently has a shocking memory.
We used to have a future England manager, Liam Rosenior. Sad times 🤤
If i was the English FA this would be my mangar target list:
Tuchel
Sean Dyche
Marco Rossi
Gary O'Neill
Eddie Howe
Pep Guardiola
Pep and Eddie are low because of their contract situations
Rob Edwards is not outside the realm of possibility. Yes, he'll probably be relegated, but remember everyone was predicting Luton to have a historically bad season, Derby County 07/08/Aston Villa 2015/16 levels, but they haven't, the mood around the club seems to be pretty positive, and he's worked well with the squad he's had. He's clearly a talented, PL-standard coach, the FA should consider him.
Huh, this is crazier than how my birth country Iran chooses managers. Unlike England though, since Iran is run by Islamists, they messed up with bizarre selection and no strategy inside. Remember that Iran was successful under various managers like Branko Ivankovic and Dragan Skocic, only for the Iranian federation to sack and replace with inept jerks or temporary fixers. Heck I am still waiting for a video about Iranian football given how Iran becomes such a wasted potential as Iran found more in common with England.
No one cares mate.
@@telewag-travelNah man,you just invalidate yourself by commenting in his commect section

Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 633)
I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored.

Imagine what you could have done with your life.
Well, England is like Thailand, always waste their potential with absurdities inside. It's scary if you remember that Thai club football successes in Asia modelled much from their English counterparts.
Strangely enough, I am also asking for a video about Thailand as well. A country where football is immensely popular, with one of the richest football leagues in Asia, and Thai clubs among some of the wealthiest in Asia as well, but unable to live up to expectation.
The FA just want someone to massage egos and connect with the players on a personal level; they want a yes-man who will be given players to work with and be told who will play in what games. That's the reason why Southgate has lasted so long, he's done a fine job creating team harmony but the sheer ability of England's current crop is why we've done so well, not because of any kind of tactical or strategic vision from the manager. Why else would we leave out our most creative players in most games? Or why else would we set up each game so cautiously and defensively, the same way we did during the 'golden generation' years?
No England manager would ever be allowed to drop players who are out of form or not compatible with a particular set-up - Joachim Low dropped World Cup winners from his squad after they were poor in 2018, imagine the uproar if Southgate dared do anything like that.
The fact that embarrassing dross like Rooney, Lampard, Gerrard etc are 'in contention' shows the FA just want a babysitter for whatever squad they put together; what they don't want is a strong-willed manager who tries to implement their own vision (I.e. a Fabio Capello)
I think Eddie Howe would be the best England manager out of the lot of them. I don't really fancy Pep's style of play and I think Eddie howe being that Newcastle manager that got a bunch of these players on the plan this season, working incredibly well with younger talent and also being a very attack minded coach with this world class attack force of players we do have works so much in our favour, we'll outscore the other team simply
People always suggest top foreign coaches who are also often at the top of the club game for England manager. Would they really leave that for the hassle that comes with England? Surely not?
For me, it has to be Howe. Now maybe its just me, but I firmly stand on that we should try keep it British. Just something about being a huge football nation to me just would be embarrassing having to go for an import, just breaks the spirit of it.
Also whenever I hear people talk about the England job, there are some things people just do not even account for which baffles me.
1. Doing well with a shoestring budget is impressive however how does that even apply to international football? Especially our squad is not in a situation of "we will work with what we got". The talent and depth is amongst the best there is. You have to focus on, how do they manage and unlock star power. No point in giving Dyche Phil Foden if he gets as much of a tune out of him as Southgates does. Its just a complete different skill set.
2. For me, when you are talking about next england manager, the performances in the cups (Europe, FA, EFL etc) needs to have WAYYYYY more weight in the considerations. Everyone knows tournament football is different to league football. This is where Howe separates himself from your Potters and Dyches. Howe has taken Newcastle to a EFL Cup final, Bournemouth to numerous QF's. Yes Champions League he flopped with that PSG game being the only positive, Howe-ver still think Howes cup pedigree is just stronger and HAS to be England manager ASAP

Can I just point out Gareth Southgate only managed one club and finished 12th, 13th & 19th (in the premier League) before getting sacked so those at the start of the list with little experience fit the same mold
Would it be that much of a surprise if Mourinho did the job part time for 2 years and won us a World Cup??
It would be hard not to put money on him tbh.
You forgot to add Michael Carrick as potential successor, however like Kieran McKenna still think he needs more time at Boro, plus don’t think he will leave his current club now as he’s trying to bring the club back to Premier League.
My third nipple isn't the best player ever
but could pick a better team than Southgate!🏴
As a Netherlands fan, I would love to see pep in the seat of the national team. Maybe then, we can win a world cup 🫣🫣🫣
Klopp can actually not get the German national team job basically at any time he wants right now, because the DFB just extended Nagelsmann's contract until 2026. Nagelsmann took the contract extension over going back to Bayern Munich and it's highly unlikely that he will leave prematurely or get fired from the DFB now, unless they brutally crash and burn in the upcoming months.
Paulo Bento,José Mourinho, Joachim Löw,Hansi Flick,Herve Rénnard and David Moyes best candidates for England but not all of them might worked for England but this is for other countries that relied on development and counter attack.
How are defensive coaches going to work for England when their weakness is defenders and defensive midfielders? Bielsa, Klopp and Guardiola are far better suited to players England has and is producing. England has attacking create and fast players by the bucket load, England need attacking football specialists to elevate the team to a new level and have the tactical intelligence to adapt during the game and that will take England to level of being favourites who can actually beat big teams.
Joachim Loew is only good at inheriting, he struggles with new ideas. Herve Renard is a complex one, as his willingness to stay coach of France women's is questionable. David Moyes is not suitable. Paulo Bento is overrated. Maybe Mourinho for God sake.
Adu featuring is my favourite part. Always. Maybe you could reach out to Him?
Getting rinsed by the UK's crap weather (rain) but at least I can listen to alfie while doing so
I know records are made to be broken, but I've always leaned towards wanting English managers due to the fact that in 22 world cups, no winners have had a manager from another country. That said, if that record is to be broken, Pep feels like a fitting candidate
None of the nine Women's World Cups have been won by teams with a foreign manager either
Or the euros ever. I also personally just think it wouldnt count
@@jamesduffy7549 Otto Rehhagel was Greece coach in 2004.
@@matthewreid2107 shame, I thought they'd won it as Greece
Southgate gets a hard time from critics because with this kind of talent at his disposal, a competent manager would have won.
Please do an update to Your “best footballer from every English-county” video from about 2018
1:56 Thank you for saying this, the amount of people I see who clearly don't think about this is genuinely terrifying
Rossi seems to be busy starring in american series "Better call saul" and dont forget his memorable performance in "Breaking Bad"
Ever really understood why peole were so down on southgate. The team improved drastically when he came in and has kept improving. Its not just squad strength because weve had world class squads forever, i think he is just a very good manager.
Q: hello Alfie, I'd suggest a video about Holstein Kiel, how they reached the bundesliga for the first time ever.
That Sean Dyche one Killed it
As an American, it’s really remarkable how similar the discourse around Berhalter and Southgate is
15:55 Newcastle were in a group with AC Milan, PSG and Dortmund
And Dortmund itself were in the Champions League Final.
Dortmund were midtable at the time, ac Milan aren't a strong team, Newcastle flopped
how would Pep ever survive without a billion pound transfer budget though?
Klinsman + Kane show: Let's see if two bad omens can make one good voodoo.
Josè has expressed his desire in the past to manage England after his idol Bobby Robson, Pep has also expressed Intrest but he would need two or three years to get England to play the football he does.
Alfie, ever considered making this a series? France? Brazil? Portugal? Argentina? Germany? I'd be interested

The six scariest words in the English language are "Wayne Rooney is the England manager".
Guardiola isn't even interested in England job. He wants a job in Italy instead. Maybe England should hire Rudi Garcia or Unai Emery.
No chance of getting pep but Emery would do a great job!
The Spanish journalist Guillem Balague who is a close person friend of Pep Guardiola And wrote his biography, was on American TV saying not only does Peo want to coach a national team after Man City, England is his first choice because he knows all the players in the country and sees they have the players to win trophies, but not coached well. Balague his friend said he wants to coach England, I believe him. The problem is with the English FA is brave enough to hire him because the cowards wanted to extend Southgate’s contract again.
@@Delboy0 Ancelotti was offered to become Brazil coach and he came so close to become Brazil manager. In the end he ditched Brazil to stay with Real Madrid. Is Guardiola interested in such a prospect for a national team always underachieved like England? The fact that he has coached only clubs with big reputations and hunger for successes show that England is not even close for him.
@@luishernandezblonde if you to RUclips type Guillem balague England manager, you will see a video of him a close personal friend of Guardiola confirming he wants to be a national team coach and England is one of his choices because he knows all the players, knows they are good enough to play his system and knows England are so poorly coached by Southgate he could win something with England if they were coached right.
It’s Pep, Jose or Freddy Ado for me
Further Ado, surely.
Hiya Alfie, hands off Eddie Howe he's staying at Newcastle, he's leading the Newcastle project and Eddie's only been there 2 seasons, pick anyone else though, this is Choppy in Whitehaven,, Cumbria, England
At 21:33 you said Kieran McKenna is ‘the most promising young English coach’, which isn’t true he is Northern Irish. Sorry for being a stickler
Pep is a remarkable man. I would LOVE him in the England position.
Fact is we are England, we should be hiring a British manager.
Facts
As a Man City fan, I worry that if Pep becomes England manager, he’d have a slow start and will be forced out before he could get any success. Remember he only finished 3rd in the league and ended trophyless in his first season at City. And most players (except a few like Haaland or Ruben Dias) take at least one year to get used to City’s system, before succeeding in their second season. So with limited time training with his players in international football, Idk if Pep would have enough time to make the team click.
England is beneath Pep, but he'd be the one who could take a genuine golden generation that should be seriously contenders for winning these tournaments. Southgate manages England like they're a test cricket team and has found a way to get our best generation of players to fold at the first sign of resistance.
Video Idea: What if there was a Catalan National Team
There is an non FIFA affiliated team
There is like the previous guy said, like there's a baque Team, Monaco team, north Cyprus. They have there own world cup too
Pep has won it all except a World Cup. England would give him an unbelievable chance to achieve that.
Alfie! You must do a video on the collapse of 777 Partners! Accused of fraud, class actions, alleged ponzi scheme, players not playing at Standard Liege, Vasco da Gama being taken over by Brazilian courts, loans to Everton, airline going bust, board members being removed / stepping down, etc etc. What a brilliant video this would be!!
Alfie can you do a video on Swindon Town FC? The Trust has just released an open letter to the chairman saying that they have lost complete faith and trust in the ownership of Clem Mourfouni and there are a bunch of shareholdings that haven't been disclosed following the club's worst ever season in it's entire history. The club is in danger of potentially getting relegated from the football league and there are rumours that some individuals who are convicted criminals are siphoning money out of the club.
The Walter White picture had me laughing.
Thomas tuchal can be a good choice as a cup manager
As Alfie has said, bemused by how little discussion there has been over Southgate's successor. Some of the criticism of Southgate is warranted, but the lack of respect shown him is disappointing. i would add i thought we were the better team against an incredible France team in the 2022 WC. One point Alfie made that i think is too overlooked is defensive coaches tend to fair better in tournament football: the success of Portugal, France and Morocco, as well as Southgate, highlights this. Other than seeming to be a it of a loose cannon, i think Tuchel would be an obvious candidate. Pep's football can be incredibly complex, with even Rodri, as well as Grealish, taking 12 months of daily training to realise their potential. Whereas Tuchel's systems seem to be grasped very quickly, particularly Chelsea in his 1st season there. But for a dodgy 10 minutes and offside flag, he may have achieved his 3rd UCL Final . Tactically too i think he sets up in a way that would benefit our best players: the 9 tends to drop in with 2 then running on to the gaps created, and he tends to sit deep which willl suit our pedestian backline(Walker aside : ironic name for our quickest player)
Dyche would be....Interesting....and well loved as an England manager.
Alfie saying 'just cos of the vibes' is craazy 😂
I think Pep will go to Italy for club or country. He played there and speaks fantastic Italian. It’s a country he hasn’t conquered too, and would be a more different challenge than PSG which is similar to what he did at City
