[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 1191660, member: 70552"] No, but am a Liverpool fan who has followed the club and Klopp. Agree to disagree. That is why I think it is more stressful for manager to manage and win with an international team, especially England. An elite manager of a club wants to win - they need the contact time with players week in week out to drill them with their philosophy. Not meet them 10 times a year and then come tournament time have to pick through the players who have been wrung out like chattels playing club football because they're injured, carrying injuries or woefully out of form. The England job uniquely so because they have not won a major trophy in 60 years come 2026 and the expectation that comes with it. The toxic abuse and impact on the family of Southgate. And I am sure the other major nations have equally critical fans and media - but I am not from that country and the likes of Spain, France, Germany, Brazil, Argentina have won many major trophies in the last 60 years. Other countries I think their fans are just happy to reach a major tournament. - hence less pressure. [/QUOTE]
