Funny with all the BLM stuff getting out of hand. I even heard Sterling saying that the EPL 'needs more black coaches.'. I mean sure but are there even elite black coaches that deserve to be given the biggest jobs? Base it on credentials ffs not skin color. I'm not being racist here...
Yup, this is insanity. Let's fight racism by.. being racist? There should be only 1 criteria - credentials/quality. Where does it end otherwise? We also don't have female coaches, let's put 3 so we are not discriminating. Also we need 2 vegans, one flatearther and a dog that thinks he's an armchair (pun intended). I'm all for freedom for everyone. But nobody should be given a position because of that 'minority' bullshit alone. You're either good or you are not. End of. Yeah let's put a dog as referee like good ol' days in International superstar soccer deluxe I strongly oppose vegans since you know they can starve midgame and who knows what will happen! Maybe we need to see a non-white queen too?
/Serious: better to neglect nonsense and illogical comments. I think that he intend to show his support or want to see one of his comrades in the field? Players and coaches have to prove themselves to get their places. There is definetly some shady hidden agreements to select a coach or player rather than another but for sure it is not generalised and the best example is the French soccer team. (We are all equal, I mean same cells, organs, blood...)

Sancho and Havertz are 2 of my biggest wishes (Mbappe is 1st one but I think he might be out of reach already) but both are ~100 mil $ players and Liverpool would have to sell to buy any of them.
One reason why Liverpool won't spend this much is because Jurgen klopp is not the kind of manager who breaks the bank for players, I know he did that to get Virgil and Alisson but Liverpool needed quality players in those areas and since he fixed that, the team has been perfect and I think all they need now is just makeshift players (back ups). Another reason is there's so much understanding between Liverpool's front three of Salah, Mane and Firminho, if I was Klopp, I wouldn't want to break that bond, bringing in Sancho could disrupt the understanding amongst the trio, even though Sancho is brilliant.

Am I the only one who thinks Arsenal is going to win this game?

There needs to be more Asian ones as well. And women. Where are the women managers? And Trans ones too. On a serious note, there probably is a lack of black managers but I don't think the solution is to just start hiring more merely based on their skin colour. That never seems right to me and is essentially doing what people are complaining about in the first place. I think there's also a lack of black managers because there's probably a lack of black players going into management as well. I certainly don't think a club would turn down a person just because of their skin colour either. There cerainly seems to be no issue in hiring black players so management shouldn't be any different. I hope Sterling goes into management when he retires. I doubt he'd have a problem getting hired. Funny with all the BLM stuff getting out of hand.

Yup, this is insanity. Let's fight racism by.. being racist? There should be only 1 criteria - credentials/quality. Where does it end otherwise? Just playing devils advocate here, but what defines credentials? Fergie didn't really have any before United, and managers like Pep get big jobs with huge teams almost straight away. It's hard to get your foot in the door and you have to do something pretty remarkable to get noticed, especially if you weren't already a top player, so it's hard to build up something that wasn't already given to you.

ESPN FC just published following info on Twitter: The Premier League released a statement with the following information:
- Player names will be replaced by Black Lives Matter for the first 12 matches - A Black Lives Matter logo will be on shirts for the rest of the season - The PL will support players who take a kneeSource: https://twitter.com/ESPNFC/status/1271493860141735937What do you think? The right decision at the right time or they shouldn't have made such a decision? I think they are sending a very good message and I'm personally glad about that.

The highest English football competition, the Premier League, will soon be rolling again, more precisely on the 17th of June. That followed the German Bundesliga which had previously resumed three weeks ago. As is known, the competition has been stopped since March 9 because of the COVID19 pandemic.
However, instead of being filled with optimism and longing for football, field surveys show the opposite. From survey data by the British government, YouGov, the majority of people in the country of Queen Elizabeth actually feel that the Premier League starts too soon.

- A Black Lives Matter logo will be on shirts for the rest of the season
In which part of the shirts btw? Isnt this going to overlap with their sponsor's logo. Some shirt might have specific size for their own logo that might overlap or perhaps make the main sponsor's logo on their shirt looks weird (?) The right decision at the right time or they shouldn't have made such a decision? I think they are sending a very good message and I'm personally glad about that.
They are definitely trying to send some good message among their viewers and fans however on the other side, I do see that this is a great marketing technique. By making this decision, they are probably trying to get some sympathy from US viewers . Sending good message across the world through football and on the same time trying to get more sympathy from viewers, top rate marketing indeed

Am I the only one who thinks Arsenal is going to win this game? Are you serious?, you are betting on Arsenal to win Manchester City, we all know it always end, these same Arsenal lost a friendly match to a championship side about two days ago and you saying they are going to win Manchester City, as a matter of fact the last time Arsenal won Manchester City was in 2017 an FA Cup tie, then when it comes to premier league the last time Arsenal won Manchester City was in 2015. so I don't see chance of Arsenal winning Manchester City with their current form.

It says in the story Tottenham also lost a friendly to a bottom side.
I'm excited for the start. Looks there like there will be games on sky (advertising around the story), I wonder what package will be needed. Cos I thought it was going to be on terrestrial TV to stop people congregating?

Sending good message across the world through football and on the same time trying to get more sympathy from viewers, top rate marketing indeed I mostly agree with you and the real question is whether these decisions are good for football or not. Should sports clubs and associations concentrate only on sport, or as in America publicly express their opinion, like kneeling when the American national anthem is performed? Given the close and good political ties between America and Britain, it is a little strange to me that the Football Association of England has decided to take this step.

Games are mostly on Sky & BT Sport (I think one of the Sky View Channels is free). Some games are on terrestrial BBC & some on Amazon but the majority are Bt Sport & Sky.

Besides SKY, if I'm not mistaken there are other broadcasters who also broadcast the match for free is PickTV. it's just not clear enough whether this channel also broadcasts big matches for free or only regular matches. surprisingly enough for me, BBC joined to become EPL's official broadcaster

I do not really care about the losses they are getting right now because these are friendlies and they are for getting ready for the games and getting back into shape. Right now they are not playing with their fullest I am sure, these are the first games they had for the first time in a while and that made a big difference too.
Some other leagues didn't had this chance, they came back without any friendlies at all and the first game they have played was the league game that they came back to, so it was actually quite difficult for them to play on an official match right back after 3 months of not playing. These teams are lucky to have these friendlies, I would have assumed it wouldn't be allowed to reduce the risks involved with the games but I guess it is allowed.

Can be a little offtopic but when is the date of the sentence for the Manchester City BAN from UEFA?
I'm pretty sure it was around 06/06/2020 but I heard nothing about it, does someone know exactly what is going on?

No, you're not alone [I may be biased].
- A Black Lives Matter logo will be on shirts for the rest of the season ~Snipped~ What do you think? The right decision at the right time or they shouldn't have made such a decision?
I'm fine with the slogan part and think it's a step in the right direction but not so sure about the logo part for the remainder of the season [it depends on its looks].
these same Arsenal lost a friendly match to a championship side about two days ago and you saying they are going to win Manchester City,
A friendly match means nothing + they don't have any fans and Arteta might know the best way to deal with his former [ish] players at their home ground.
That made my day

The ban is not yet confirmed. Also, if they get the ban, it is still not clear if it would start in the 2020/21 or 2021/22 season. Regarding Arsenal - I think they have no chance against City. They do not have anything that can trouble City, are a type of team that City likes to play against and are inferior all over the pitch. I'd like them to take something out of the game though, the faster Liverpool are crowned champions the better.

Philippe Coutinho wants to return to Liverpool since he didn't have a place to play in starting eleven. From CNN, Countinho asking Klopp to bring him back to the clubs. He was ready to join with lower wages in Liverpool. But, there a rumor if several teams also want this player such as MANU, Chelsea and Arsenal. I think, when a player decides to join his old clubs for the second time, maybe it will easy for the manager to granted player requests. But, everything still possible, because the chances not just in Liverpool.
