Ipswich Town

Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna spoke in-depth about whether it's an indictment on St George's Park that an English coach wasn't appointed as England manager:

"I think it's two separate issues to be honest. For me, St George's Park is very good for so many things - for the development of the game and grassroots football but for the higher level coaches working at higher levels of the game - I've maybe spent two weeks there in the last decade.

"I think your development as a professional coach and a manager, it doesn't come from coaching courses to be honest. I don't think the FA or St George's Park can be held accountable for that. I think your development is in your day-to-day job and within the clubs. I think more of the young coaches, a lot of their development probably comes through the academy systems and I think that's where the large majority of my learning has taken place - not through coaching courses you attend.

"I think probably more pertinent is some of the access to people from the amateur game and the grassroots game to coaching courses in terms of affordability and availability. I know lots of people that have had struggles with that and I think that is more of an issue but for me that is more about developing our football culture in the country, developing the base level of our culture and understanding of football. That isn't necessarily going to translate into the next England manager. I think there is a misconception of what the responsibility for St George's Park is."

Arne Slot took a bit of a “mental break” during the latest round of internationals before the Dutchman returned to Liverpool on Tuesday.

He could return home and try to switch off in the knowledge that he had led his side to the top of the Premier League with six wins from their opening seven top-flight games after replacing Jurgen Klopp during the summer.

However, while Slot has consistently highlighted his side have been helped by a favourable fixture list, he knows things are about to get a lot tougher.

Liverpool host Chelsea in the league on Sunday and have top-flight games against Arsenal, Brighton and Aston Villa before another international break in mid-November, as well as tricky cup ties.

“I think we have to judge us as a team after this spell of games,” said Slot.

“Then we know better how we act and how we perform if we play tough Champions League games and tough league games.”

Fulham

Fulham boss Marco Silva on reaching 150 Fulham matches: "The ambitions, they are at the top. It's just a number, its another game for me. The only thing I'm looking for is three points tomorrow. The ambition for the future is the same, keep working with a great group players and keep making the fans proud. That's the main thing for me if we go in this direction we will be in a better place and make the club grow."

Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna on team news: Axel Tuanzebe, Jens Cajuste and Massimo Luongo are all out while Dara O'Shea will be "assessed" before Saturday's game.

McKenna added that Tuanzebe "could be a few months" after a "very unfortunate and very serious" household accident saw him come close to losing his thumb.

Fulham

Fulham boss Marco Silva on team news: "Sasa Lukic is going to be out, unfortunately. Mixed feelings on the break, some players were able to keep momentum, play minutes and contribute, like Wilson, Andreas and Raul, and sadly some came back with injuries. Timo also came back with a problem in his hamstring, they will be out for sure.

On Raul Jimenez: "We are happy for him. We always believed in him. He didn't start the season in the starting XI but he never gave up in training, never stopped trying, and now he's helping the team win football matches."

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo on Ola Aina and Taiwo Awoniyi, who were involved in an incdient with the Nigerian national team over the international break:

"They arrived and are working normally. As soon as it happened, the club reached them and tried to see what was going on. It was a mess. They arrived a couple of days ago and are working normally

"They have overcome that. It was an incident and it's not more important than that."

Crystal Palace

More from Oliver Glasner on Adam Wharton, who was rested during the international break: "He is ready [to play], but it’s always the same that we have to manage him.

"He saw another specialist, so it’s always an up and down. He trained quite well this week, he’s in good shape, so it’s okay."

Crystal Palace

Oliver Glasner started his press conference by giving an update on team news

There are no new injury concerns following the international break and Adam Wharton is available for Monday's game.

Glasner said "no new injured players are coming back" in time, but Cheick Doucoure "will train in parts after the Forest game."

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest have said they are going to appeal the five-match stadium ban given to their owner Evangelos Marinakis.

Marinakis received the ban from a Regulatory Commission after "improper conduct". The cluba re already appealing a £750,000 fine for comments made on social media.

The club said: "An appeal has immediately been lodged against this decision in respect of both the liability and the sanction."

Boss Gary O'Neil admits Wolves cannot continue to rely on excuses and the clock is ticking to find results.

They host Manchester City on Sunday bottom of the Premier League after one point from their opening seven games.

Wolves have faced five of the top seven and by the time they travel to Brighton next week will have played all of them in their first nine matches.

They also sold captain Max Kilman and forward Pedro Neto in the summer while defender Yerson Mosquera suffered a season-ending injury in the defeat at Aston Villa last month but O'Neil concedes Wolves are running out of defences.

He said: "I understand one point from seven isn't good enough and we need to prove we are better than that. That tipping point will come soon.

"We can't sit here forever and say we've had tough games and lost a couple of important players in the summer.

"Now what? Come on then, let's go."

Boss Gary O'Neil seemed to be revelling in the growing pressure at his press conference but was also again keen to emphasise the context of Wolves' start.

He wants to shoulder the blame for his players, even if they make individual mistakes, because it is his plan they are trying to carry out.

Wolves will have faced all of the current top seven in their opening nine games by the time they face Manchester City on Sunday and go to Brighton next weekend.

Once that is taken into consideration - and the loss of Max Kilman to West Ham and Pedro Neto's departure to Chelsea - maybe Wolves' situation can be better understood.

Regardless, they need to start winning to survive and with Crystal Palace, Southampton and Bournemouth all visiting Molineux next month that is likely to be the "tipping point" in their search for wins O'Neil has described.

We'll keep the Erik ten Hag chat going, plus there's still loads of Premier League press conferences that have only just finished.

It feels like Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag being under pressure is something we say every week.

It started last season with multiple reports suggesting Ten Hag may be fired in the summer. Instead, United offered him a new contract after he delivered a shock FA Cup win.

But the start to this season has been a poor one and the club currently sit in 14th in the Premier League.

What have United's results been this season? Here's a list across all competitions:

Manchester City 1-1 Man Utd (7-6 on pens) - Community Shield

Man Utd 1-0 Fulham (Premier League)

Brighton 2-1 Man Utd (Premier League)

Man Utd 0-3 Liverpool (Premier League)

Southampton 0-3 Man Utd (Premier League)

Man Utd 7-0 Barnsley (EFL Cup)

Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd (Premier League)

Man Utd 1-1 Twente (Europa League)

Man Utd 0-3 Tottenham (Premier League)

Man Utd 3-3 Porto (Europa League)

Aston Villa 0-0 Man Utd (Premier League)

Thanks Alan. Who's waiting in the wings as a replacement? Would you be happy with Graham Potter? Ruud van Nistelrooy? Gareth Southgate?

I guess the flip side is that sacking managers is a very expensive business, Joe. Plus, sticking by your head coach in theory is the better play, right? More time to get your style across. Look at Mikel Arteta at Arsenal...
