Tuchel and Klopp continue to go toe-to-toe for top spot in the EPL after 8 match days. Although it looks inevitable that Farke's Norwich will get relegated. Not entirely his fault as the club has a super low budget in trying to compete in the EPL. But wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being his last season in charge.

They did get a draw vs fellow minnows Arminia Bielefeld, but Augsburg continue their bleak start to the season and remain among the relegation spots. Wouldn't be surprised if Weinzierl ends up being one of the early candidates to get sacked. Probably the last major chance for him as he's languished around for a while before this second stint at Augsburg.
Matthias Jaissle beats Wolfsburg 3-1. RB Salzburg in 1st place with 7 pts (should be 9) could be 1st Salzburg coach to make CL R16.
The Salzburg coaching position is strategically one of the most coveted for a German (or German speaker.) Matthias Jaissle will inevitably ascend to the 🇩🇪 Bundesliga soon enough. #SALWOB— Derek Rae (@RaeComm) October 20, 2021
43 – FC Salzburg are the first Austrian side to beat a (West-) German Team in the #UCL or the European Cup in 43 years, when Wacker Innsbruck beat Borussia Mönchengladbach 3-1 (h) in the Quarter Final of the European Cup.

This feat made history in Luxembourg's football history, as Dudelange were not just the first team to have ever qualified in the group stages of any European competition, but they also managed to obtain a point.

Vertrag bis 2023: Florian Kohfeldt ist neuer Trainer des VfL. Herzlich willkommen bei den Wölfen, Coach! 🐺🙌#VfLWolfsburg pic.twitter.com/ApQGPrW7uE— VfL Wolfsburg (@VfL_Wolfsburg) October 26, 2021
Curious about how much longer Farke has at Norwich as they continue to be bottom feeders in the EPL While Roger Schmidt had a massive loss 0-5 loss to Ajax on the weekend which is a huge hit to their quest to compete for the league title. Ajax will most likely take the Eredivisie anyways though.
Kohfeldt had a good first full season with Werder Bremen but his methodology and tactics crumbled afterwards. I'm curious if he can re-stabilize his career or if he ends up being a fraud like Weinzierl Terzic has shown interesting potential but longevity is key as a coach. Hope he finds himself a gig somewhere he can prove himself.

Klopp & Tuchel have absolutely killed it in the EPL. I think both coach styles of play well suited to the league. Farke won’t be fired imo, Norwich realise survival is tough and are happy to yo-yo between the top 2 divisions without bankrupting the club in the process.
Farke is certainly well liked by the Norwich brass. And it'll be tough to let someone go like him as I feel there is a loyalty aspect between the coach and upper management. However, what I would be critical of is Norwich's transfer policy lately. They've brought in lower hanging fruit in the form of players from relegated Bundesliga clubs like Rashica, Sargent and Kabak. Ultimately what they'll be measuring him with is how Norwich end up this season compared to fellow promoted clubs Brentford and Watford, who are currently both sitting in a more secure position as of right now.
Just realized that Markus Gisdol has taken over the coaching job at Lokomotiv Moscow. He has 1 W and 1 D so far in the Russian League, where the club is currently 4th place after 12 total match days. And has lost once in his only Europa League game with them. Sandro Schwarz's Dinamo Moscow currently sit in 2nd place.
Wolfsburg already look a lot better, especially in defence. Nice to see two young German coaches up against each other in CL, plus first win in Europe for Kohfeldt.
Most of the times club look better after changing coach…whether Wolfsburg is really turning things around or not will be known after 2 months
