I will never forgive Tuchel for squandering BVB's best chance of winning the Europa League which was the 2015-16 season, being knocked out by one of the worst Liverpool sides ever, not to mention he refused to challenge Bayern domestically in his first season with BVB despite having the team to do so, all because he has a serious case of hero worship regarding Guardiola.

Losing today is a fireable offence for Heiko Herrlich. His team is just not performing good enough and have embarrassed themselves on the Europa stage against Zurich.

Löw internationally, Tuchel in Europe, and Karius as GK are what's giving Germany the worst possible reputation. How I'm categorizing the situation of notable German coaches so far this season right now: Positive: Klopp, Hecking, Kohfeldt, Kuntz, Wormuth Neutral: Tuchel (good in the east Ligue 1 but poor in CL), Rangnick, Nagelsmann, Baum, Labbadia, Streich, Schwarz, Farke Negative: Löw, Herrlich, Köllner, Breitenreiter, Tedesco, David Wagner, Skibbe, Roger Schmidt Too soon to tell: Weinzierl, Hannes Wolf

26 - Liverpool have won 26 points in their opening 10 Premier League games this season (W8 D2 L0) - their joint-best start to a Premier League season after 10 games (also 26 in 2008-09). Threat. pic.twitter.com/4NsID1O9PA— OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) October 27, 2018
Farke's Norwich with another win this time 1-0. move to 3rd place and still only 2 pts behind 1st place. good recent trend for the club after a not so great start to the season.
Wagner's Huddersfield sink to dead last in the EPL after a 0-3 loss to Watford. They're still winless after 10 match days. I see them definitely relegating this season
I feel like that trend won't change for awhile though. Still not too bad for the weekend that Petersen, Holer, Waldschmidt, Ginczek all scoring and Stindl drawing a PK. but yeah doesn't look bright with the current players. And in terms of emerging young strikers we are still seeing barely any chances for them whether in 1BL or 2BL. The lack of opportunities is the biggest issue. So plenty of strikers are stuck in the reserves. Some it feels like no matter what they do in RL they still won't get chances in 1BL or 2BL. Others will never get chances unless injuries happen to 1st team players. you remember how Knoll said that Hamburg wanted to extend his contract although had 0 plans with him. Even though he won the RL Nord top scorer as a 20 year old scoring over 20 goals last season. there are more 99-00 German striker options although 99s are all currently reserve players and 00 mostly still in U19.
Supposedly, 99 have four decent striker prospects in David Otto, Florian Kruger, Wintzheimer and David Nieland. All the progressed has been delayed due to different reasons 2000 they have a few: Arp and Jesaja Herrmann (I know he isn’t playing well this season) are two better talents, then u have Hottmann, Maurice Malone, Cyrill Akono and Luc Ihorst. Evina, Burkardt And Kühn are very good prospects too but they might develop as wingers. 2001 there simply isn’t too any top striker prospect. Can have a look at Lenn Jastremski from Wolfsburg or Jabez Makanda from Frankfurt. But the latter is still adapting. Bleart Dautaj has become a lost talent 2002 is a big year for strikers: Ware Pakia, Kerim Adeyemi And Nick Woltemade (already 196cm) are three top striker prospects in the age group. Then u have Jan Thielmann, Luis Hartwig, Maurice Kramny, Moritz Schweinstetter And Dennis Borkowski who are also decent prospects. Borkowski And Thielmann are versatile enough to play other positions, and might develop as midfielders in the future though. 2003 we have Emrehan Gedikli, who is arguably the best striker prospect in the country after Fiete Arp. Lasse Gunther is also another interesting player 2004.. u just can’t ignore Youssoufa Moukoko And Lucas Copado
99-Kiprit (can still end up with Turkey) and Musel aren't too bad either and both seem rated by their clubs. Wintzheimer seems to be struggling badly in RL. Seems like there are a ton of 99s who have done better than him. 00-Evina, Burkardt, and Kuhn have basically already developed into wingers. When Kuhn plays striker, he's basically a false 9. That's always been the issue from youth level to higher level. Attacking players don't always keep their positions. Even someone like Robin Kehr also seems to be playing winger over striker. 01-One issue with this lot is that the 00 strikers still dominate majority of teams because it's their last U19 season. So 01 are basically bench players.Next season could be a better indicator for them. 02-Hummel seem to have fallen off as Kramny has taken his spot, both Stuttgart boys. 03-some 03 who are playing in U17 this season Schmid, Durmushan, Klein, Sieb (more SS but could always become a striker). Of course there will be more during the season who play U17 and especially next season which will be the last in U17 for 03s. So the 03s playing U16 this season will show up next season. curious to see the dev of German duals that either don't play for Germany or likely headed towards another country. Guys like Aydinel, Tekin, Asllani etc. Although now seems like we are taking over an unrelated thread to discuss something that fits Youth thread or striker thread.
Weinzierl has a 0-8 goal differential in his first 2 matches in charge at Stuttgart which of course both resulted in losses. Still early days as he inherited a mess to begin with. However, a bad campaign at the end of the season could put him at risk of being another Mirko Slomka kind of situation which sees him being irrelevant in the coaching scene altogether.
Weinzierl has now lost 3 straight and with an overall GD of 0-11 Sammer is very skeptical of the situation at Stuttgart https://www.90min.de/posts/6213266-dritte-weinzierl-niederlage-sammer-laesst-kein-gutes-haar-am-vfb
Farke's Norwich with a big 4-0 win away at Sheffield Wednesday. With this victory they also move into first place in the English Championship

although sad part is even if Norwich make EPL which would be a massive accomplishment they seem like Huddersfield 2.0.
Zorniger's Brondby continue their downward spiral and are now 9th place in the Danish Superliga. They've only won once in their last 8 match days. I expect Zorniger to get sacked this season.
Klinsmann linked with Stuttgart coaching or sporting director? https://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/...-zum-vfb-stuttgart-zurueck-58221634.bild.html if he does go for it, wait until they get relegated.
