It’s Nuno Espirito Santo out, and Ange Postecoglou in at Nottingham Forest. Matt Davies-Adams tells us what he makes of it all.

After a seventh consecutive defeat against a top 30 nation for the USMNT, we ask Mike Zimmerman what Mauricio Pochettino is getting wrong.

We’ll discuss an agreement between Man City and the Premier League, Bayer Leverkusen’s post-Eric ten Hag plan, a La Liga player who has been banned for a doping violation, and the manager who left his international team without winning a single game.

And we will of course be spotlighting the best matches to watch as the international break draws to a close.
