Apparently, Tuchel was offered the Bayer Leverkusen job but declined it. I personally can't see him joining us, he will wait, and jobs like Atletico, Juve, Inter etc. will become available.
3 at the back could be interesting, Forest have played 3 at back so it will at least match them if they go with that again. It will also mean he has to make a change in midfield, which is what practically everybody on here has been asking for.
That's the whole point of playing a back 3, the wing backs have license to go forward, as the back 3 spread out covering the defense, Young won't need to track back as much.
This is where things started to unravel for Smith, when we switched to 3 at the back. But I think we have players more suited to it now than we did then.

Then can either go one 10/two strikers or two 10s/one striker.
I hate to say it, but I kinda agree with @messi11. Only way Gerrard is getting sacked is if we lose games. Purlsow will not sack his man if he is scrapping out 1-0 wins or 0-0s.
I want to see us win and do well, but at the same time I want Gerrard gone. It's a double edged sword.
Bizarre. Was on verge of sack on now is getting a contract extension.
Is this some under the table deal that means he'll get more compensation when sacked if agrees to not take over another club?
Hopefully he gets a start against Forest. If you can’t be given a chance against the bottom team in the league, who can you play against, should just have been loaned out.
He did, but people will tell you that is no achievement in a two team league like Scotland even though it only happened three times before two of which were in the 19th century.
