    Hopp (Hoffenheim owner) now saying Nagelsmann won't be Bayern coach for a foreseeable time and mentioned his long-term contract.

    During today's press conference, Heynckes stated how Bayern now have time to sign an adequate German coach and mentioned there are young German coaches who are predestined to be coach for Bayern.
    Smirked quite hard when saying this, makes me think we already have a clear candidate in sight (Tuchel maybe, as Hopp and Hoffenheim director Rosen insisted pretty hard on Nagelsmann staying).

    Makes me think, life as a retired ex coach isn't so interesting after all.

    Guy could've scored the 3:0 and instead this happened, team proceeded to lose the game 2:3.

    Breh had offers to work as a tv expert but prefers a calm lifestyle away from media. You're right though, after the Triple season he probably could've banged all teh girlz and partied non-stop.

    A shame Bale was injured, they were one of my favourite teams in last year's Euro.

    I was rooting for Holland to do the impossible. Shame for Arjen - would have wished it for him.

    Me too. His last chance to make it to make it to the biggest stage again.

    "Ohne Holland, fahr'n wir zur WM" is accurate again. Which I feel bad about this time.

    It's similar to what's happening to the USA. The Dutch have to take a look at their national team system from top down. Talent pool is not impressive and coaching was just as atrocious during WC Qualifying. Serious changes need to be made for both the Dutch and the USA.

    You sure he didn't already do that and just wanted a break from all that for a few months...hence the return to Bayern? :D

    Ecuador only playing with their 2nd squad vs Argentina, bit fishy when you know the South American confederation.

    I'm ready for club football to start again so I can forget about how much Team USA sucks.
