World Cup News

Potter's side grasped their second chance by beating Ukraine 3-1 in their semi-final, before a late Viktor Gyokeres goal secured a dramatic 3-2 win over Poland in the final to seal a World Cup berth.

Sweden faced Poland in the finals of UEFAs FIFA World Cup qualification playoffs, and the match ended in a decisive 3-2 win for the hosts after an entertaining battle. Sweden earned a long-awaited return to the World Cup following their absence in the most recent edition; back in 2018, they reached the quarter-finals. Poland have […] The post Sweden Vs Poland [3-2] – 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualification Playoff Final – Tactical Analysis appeared first on Total Football Analysis.

Graham Potter's side were in ecstasy when they beat Poland on Tuesday night, courtesy of Viktor Gyokeres' 88th-minute winner. The scenes after were heartwarming - and Potter was chuffed.

Manager and team had hit rock bottom, but together they found redemption and are heading to North America A manager down on his luck after a second failure in quick succession, wondering what the future would hold. A national team struggling at the bottom of their qualifying group given a second chance through the vagaries of the Nations League. That national team happens to be the country where the manager made his name, inspiring a team from a town with a population of 50,000 to win the Swedish Cup. So the two get together, doubting manager and doubting country, and somehow, less than six months after the nadir, they are going to the World Cup finals.

Jimbo has Duncan Alexander, Tim Spiers and Adrian Clarke for company after what felt like a massive Matchday 30 in the Premier League. Arsenal leave it late to beat Everton but do so with 16-year-old Max Dowman becoming the youngest scorer in Premier League history. Is that an iconic moment that will drive the Gunners towards the title? They’re now 9 points clear of Man City who draw 1-1 at West Ham. Have Tottenham turned the tide in the fight to stay up? A first point under Igor Tudor rescued by Richarlison at Anfield in the 90th minute with Liverpool fans booing their team at the final whistle. Man United power past Aston Villa 3-1 at Old Trafford to establish themselves as frontrunners in the Champions League race. Is Bruno Fernandes about to break the assist record? And Chelsea are on the outside looking in, after losing 1-0 at home to Newcastle, with most of the conversation revolving around the Blues’ pre-match centre circle huddle.

Cathal is joined once again by OTB’s Colm Boohig to preview this weekend’s fixtures. The lads dive into Liverpool’s recent stumble, United’s ongoing struggles, and Colm is a bit baffled at Graham Potter’s sacking on a Saturday morning. Lifelong West Ham fan John McCarthy joins Cathal to reflect on the club’s recent managerial change and what it could mean for the Hammers going forward.

Things are going from really, really bad at Manchester United to somehow dramatically worse. So, is it time for old Jim Ratcliffe to bin off the second manager of his tenure and wave goodbye to Ruben Amorim? Marcus, Luke & Jim give their rather robust thoughts on that.

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by The Mirror’s John Cross, ESPN’s Mark Ogden and The Sunday Times’ Jonathan Northcroft to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action. We begin by looking at Arsenal’s 5-0 win hosting Leeds. Jonathan talks of a bouncing mood in the Emirates unveiling Eze. Will this finally be Arsenal’s year? Next to Nuno Espirito Santo’s spat with Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis; will Nuno walk? Elsewhere, to Spurs’ impressive victory at Man City. Mark suggests whatever the manager, Spurs win at the Eithad! John mentions he loves Pep, but questions whether he can rebuild City. Then to West Ham, and is Graham Potter’s time ticking with the Hammers? John believes Potter inherited a poor squad but after twenty-one games, West Ham have won only five and lost eleven, so the pressure is inevitably on. Finally, we look at Jonathan’s piece on how players get their desired move, and subsequently look at the continuing Isak saga; John argues Newcastle can’t show a sign of weakness and let him go. Running Order: 8mins Is it Arsenal’s year? 21mins Will Nuno walk from Forest? 25mins Spurs’ win at City 44mins Is Potter’s time with Hammers ticking? 51mins Isak transfer Saga Sunday Supplement is a Sky Sports podcast.

Jimbo's got Natalie Gedra, Jay Harris and Dom Fifield along for the ride as we look ahead to Matchday 2 in the Premier League - and discuss some rather hefty transfer news that might have caught your eye... That's right - it looks like Tottenham have been gazumped to the signing of Eberechi Eze by their old friends Arsenal... yikes! So does this mean that the Gunners really do have all the tools to win the Premier League? And where do Thomas Frank's Spurs turn now with a squad that looks ill-equipped to deal with the pressures of a busy schedule? There's tasty ties everywhere you look this Bank Holiday weekend - no more so than Monday night at St James' Park as Newcastle host Liverpool. What's the latest with Alexander Isak after Tuesday night's statement tête-à-tête? Elsewhere - there's more beef to be had between Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest at Selhurst. Is Graham Potter already in big trouble against former side Chelsea on Friday night? And what sort of Tottenham will turn up at Manchester City - with Pep's side having won just 1 of their last 4 against the visitors at the Etihad?! All that plus big waterslides, calamitous defending at Ibrox and a potentially sticky start to life at Hill Dickinson Stadium for the Toffees. Produced by Charlie Jones and Lucy Oliva.

It's Chip Strategy season! With the FA Cup 3rd round concluded for Premier League sides and with the draw for the 4th round now known Suj and James plot plans for using Chips in FPL for the rest of the season. And this year there's the added complication of the Assistant Manager Chip, so should it be used early on Arne Slot or do better opportunities await later in the season for other managers? There's also coverage of when might be best to use the Triple Captain Chip, which might be the biggest and best week for the Bench Boost, and with many of the Chips used best in a Double Gameweek does than mean the Free Hit should be used as a shield in a Blank Gameweek? Permutations and possibilities covered, including when FPL managers may want to use the second Wildcard and how it can set up for Chip usage. Plus, the Podcast kicks off with key notes from the FA Cup weekend and its impact on the Midweek FPL GW21 and thoughts on the new managerial appointments of Graham Potter and David Moyes, *For Chip Strategy discussion jump to around minute 34* Tomorrow on on Planet FPL: Clash of the Correspondents, Ipswich Town v Brighton & Hove Albion with Paul Gaught-Allen and Sam Murray Today on Patreon: The Patreon Q'N'A and Nico's Corner For the full Planet FPL schedule this week, including our offering on Patreon view this post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/119895820 Want to become a member of our FPL community and support the Podcast?

Jimbo, Michael Cox, Duncan Alexander and Jay Harris cast their collective eye over a very big week of football. Tottenham inflict a rare defeat on Arne Slot’s Liverpool as they take a 1-0 lead to Anfield in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-finals in a month’s time.

Have Arsenal gone backwards this season and do the Magpies have any weaknesses right now? Big week at West Ham as The Athletic’s Roshane Thomas tells us. Julen Lopetegui is replaced as head coach by Graham Potter, someone with a point to prove after his 7 month spell at Chelsea. And it’s FA Cup 3rd round weekend. Arsenal v Man United is the standout tie. Or is it non-league Tamworth against Spurs? How many ties is Ashley Young linked to? Those questions answered and more. Produced by Charlie Jones.

Today Marcus, Luke and Jim are here to reflect on what Southgate’s legacy will be once the dust has settled. There's also the question of who comes next? Marcus explains why Eddie Howe might just have an advantage over Graham Potter in the race to become the next England manager. That advantage of course goes by the name of Jason Tindall… We're back on stage and tickets are out NOW!

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Manchester United correspondent Gary Robinson and Chelsea fan Gary Mantle to discuss the latest at their clubs in cluding the upcoming Double Gameweek that features a meeting between the two at Old Trafford next Thursday. Should United be concerned about falling outside of the top 4? 2 wins are needed and should they both arrive in the double, should FPL managers then be concerned about rotation in GW38 ahead of the FA Cup Final against treble chasing neighbours City? Just how bad has this season been for Chelsea? There's reflection on Graham Potter's reign, the interim spell with Frank Lampard and thoughts turn to the imminent apppointment of Mauricio Pochettino. Plus, Marcus Rashford's fitness, best United FPL assets discussed including if Bruno Fernandes should be forced in, if multiple defensive assets should be considered and differential Antony. Will Kepa come back in goal for Chelsea; are there any other assets that can be considered? Or should they be heavily avoided with trips to both Manchester clubs upcoming and Newcastle visiting Stamford Bridge on the final day...?

JJ Bull, Jon Mackenzie and Reuben Pinder are here to talk about some football. There was a surfeit of sackings in the Premier League over the weekend, so the boys rake over the coals of Graham Potter’s six months at Chelsea and the four year Brendan Rodgers era at Leicester City. Manchester City battered Liverpool when it looked like Liverpool might be about to derail The Citizens title bid. That defeat puts the 2020 Premier League winners in real trouble when it comes to qualifying for the Champions League, with Liverpool behind Brighton and Brentford in the standings as those standings stand. That race for the Champions League is being led by Newcastle United and Manchester United, with The Magpies overcoming The Red Devils at St James’ Park over the weekend. And speaking of corvids, we discuss whether a collection of intelligent crows should be allowed to watch a game of football if they had a ticket, as well as some other mad nonsense involving seagulls. Oh and AC Milan vs Napoli plus Bayern München vs Borussia Dortmund. This episode of the Tifo football podcast is presented by JJ Bull and produced by Steve Hankey. Hosted on Acast.

The lads also chatted through Arsenal's increasingly impressive title-charge, Pep Guardiola's channeling of his inner-Johan Cruyff during Manchester City's defeat of Liverpool, and yet another bad day for Erik ten Hag's Manchester United.
