Mo Dahoud completely speechless in his first press conference in Frankfurt. It's in German, but the beauty of it is the silence
Seriously, how can it be so hard to answer simple questions about how you feel about the move from Brighton to Frankfurt?

‘How many jobs in men’s football are bigger than mine’ - an awful lot is the answer
What an absolute deluded woman.

If someone injured themselves after a big meal by doing a powerful fart, do you think the club/player would be open about it?https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cwywj70wjq2o

Nope. Far from it. Let’s just call it for what it is though eh
Of course she isnt paid as much as Jurgen. And unlike Klopp she can’t subsequently afford a sabbatical.
It’s simple business economics. I don’t think Jurgen would need that explaining to him.
She should realise that the average attendance for WSL 22/23 was 5k. This went up to 7k for the 23/24 season
She must also acknowledge that tv rights for 1 season of EPL equates to 1.6 Billion whilst the WSL is currently valued at 15.6 million per annum . Less than 1% of the means game
She should be grateful for her salary….which is probably an awful lot more than what you or I earn
So you agree that she should make more money than Rooney, as the USWNT have a higher average attendance than Plymouth? More than the managers of Monaco, Girona, Getafe, Cagliari etc.?
USWNT also generate more revenue than the USMNT.

The revenue is also higher than that of Plymouth and around the same as Gagliari’s.

Not when they’ll only play 22 matches in the calendar year…of which 8 were friendlies.
That’s 14 competitive matches in 12 months. Plymouth will play 17 competitive matches Oct-Dec
And having a much lower number of games they still generate more revenue than Plymouth.
Also, it’s you who brought up the average attendance. In that column, they rank higher than Plymouth. Pretty impressive considering 8 of their games were friendlies without anything at stake.

I would expect them to generate more. Their market audience is far greater. Roughly 349,725,000 greater.
Yep this fun thread is definitely the place for some culture war bickering....

Comparing the best job in the women's game to the men's game and saying comparatively there aren't that many jobs that are bigger? She's got a point.
You just tell her again what she needs to realise, acknowledge and be grateful for. I'm sure she'll appreciate it Mr. Tate.
I bet Jermaine Jenas got his little boy out near the corner flag somewhere.
