Last one, yes. Poch stays. Deschamps to get the boot.
Hasn't Deschamps got credit in the bank?
He has, but not closing the door with 15 min left and two up? Totally on him.
It could be his moment to get sent packing.
Zidane also being available.
Why? He was a leader on the pitch and so far his managerial career has been OK, if not spectacular.
New contender for Tottenham and Everton jobs
Marcel Brands should know him well given his days in Dutch Eredivisie

Nothing thereLove this pic of Deschamps and Tony Pulis
Pretty sure they already got some Portuguese fella.
Depends what one means by "OK" - and is that an adequate qualification to manage successfully in the Premier League anyway?
His stint at Nice was not much to write home about, and the team got worse even though they invested the 3rd most in the league. You'd think he gets the job based on his name and what he has done as a player in England rather than as a manager.
For a team desperately trying to find a new identity, it just strikes me as strange that you go for a manager accused of not really being able to set one for the teams he has managed.
The role he had in the US cant really be used as much given that Deila is now outperforming him.
I'd say he would be the favorite to be sacked first given the change needed at Palace and what he brings.
Lets see, I could obviously be spectacularly wrong.. 🙂
I totally missed that.
Former star players have been given the jobs with less impressive resumes. I’m not saying he’s necessarily going to be a success, but I see no reason to dismiss his chances right away.
First Chelsea now Everton LOL
Not sure I'd go that far, but I do think it's an open question whether Calvert-Lewin will maintain his form under Rafa. He's never struck me as a particularly outstanding player (it's no accident that he hasn't got on the pitch in the Euros even when Kane's been subbed off) but Ancelotti somehow "got" him and improved him big style. Same with Bamford under Bielsa - it remains to be seen whether the improvement is permanent or whether another manager will have an equal effect on him.
Nuno Santo ... attacking football ... 🙄

There's going to be one heck of a back story unfolding here. Nuno's a good manager and may well improve them, but the possible butting of egos between Levy and Jorge Mendes may not be pretty. It'll be a balance (or lack of it) between how well they do and how much Levy can tolerate a real alternative centre of power in the club.
Has Messi gone? I know discussions are ongoing and he is a free agent right now. I didn’t know he’s signed for another club.
