Pocognoli deserves time but Scottish FA must also prove their credentials
<p>Scotland’s unproven head coach represents a gamble made by an organisation who could do without another embarrassing episode</p><p>If time is the commodity most cherished by a manager, Sébastien Pocognoli’s decision to lead Scotland is no surprise. Host nation status for Euro 2028 means it will be exceptionally difficult for them not to qualify for the tournament.</p><p>In the Nations League, starting on Saturday in Slovenia, Pocognoli can experiment without fear of serious consequence. The 39-year-old has taken over a national team that represents a country which had not only – and partly unfairly – grown weary of Steve Clarke but screamed for a brave new dawn. The public wants what the public gets. They are unlikely to turn on Pocognoli, even if the start to his international management career proves bumpy. The Belgian has cannily called up a batch of untried and young players for his opening set of fixtures. Not all will be cut out for international football – Clarke’s mainstays remain crucial – yet the head coach will gain kudos for giving opportunity. An improvement in talent identification, including sourcing more players who qualify for Scotland through family bloodlines, is now a priority. Pocognoli’s salary, understood to be seven figures at base level, underlines the Scottish Football Association’s sense that they have sourced a difference maker from the out-of-work market.</p> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2026/sep/25/sebastien-pocognoli-scotland-scottish-fa-slovenia">Continue reading...</a>

‘Have some humanity’: Diogo Jota chants at Rúben Neves a wake-up call for Saudi Arabia
<p>With added coverage comes added scrutiny and there is a feeling that the league was too lenient when punishing chants about the late Portugal forward</p><p>The good thing about Cristiano Ronaldo playing in your league is that he is one of the most famous footballers ever and when he scores a great goal or reaches 1,000 (just 21 to go), many people watch. The bad thing about Cristiano Ronaldo playing in your league is that when something negative happens and he is involved, just as many people will watch and listen. Global attention is something that the big European leagues have had for years but it is something the Saudi Pro League, which has spent billions in search of achieving a similar stature, needs to get used to.</p><p>On Sunday 13 September, Ronaldo wrote to his 680 million Instagram followers to discuss the events of Saturday evening. That was when Al-Taawoun supporters were coming to terms with a 6-0 home thrashing by Al-Hilal, whose £150m-plus forward line, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2026/aug/31/ollie-watkins-ivan-toney-saudi-arabia-thomas-tuchel-england">Ollie Watkins</a> and <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2026/sep/03/gabriel-martinelli-leaves-arsenal-al-hilal">Gabriel Martinelli</a>, got five between them. Fair to say that some handled it better than others as what followed was in the worst possible taste.</p> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2026/sep/22/cristiano-ronaldo-humanity-diogo-jota-chants-neves-saudi-pro-league">Continue reading...</a>
