Andrews would like to investigate if possible, but seems Duff has little interest in taking such a role at this moment bsky.app/profile/migu...

Am told there is truth to Brentford’s interest in Damien Duff as an assistant to Keith Andrews - still some way until any deal is done, though www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

A great game in the under-21s between Italy and Germany and a very niche type of dramatically engaging situation: nine-man team hanging on in extra-time as the attacking team know they absolutely can't go to penalties.

Not that it's a good thing that Europe and England hoover up so much talent, but Brighton know how to spot a manager and they have had a look at Palmeiras' Abel Ferreira in the past. A canny coach, and they're here because of the Libertadores he won in 2021 (and 2020).

PSG cantering to their domestic league could be an even greater advantage in this competition than it was in the Champions League final.
