Well, it’s been quite the week, hasn’t it?

It’s not often that we have lots to discuss over the international window, but this one has generated so many talking points.

Manchester United have taken most of the headlines over the last few days. It was revealed on Monday that United were expected to sack Michael Carrick - but it took them until Thursday to actually do it. Meanwhile, they were busy appointing former Tottenham and Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino as his successor. More on that shortly.

Crystal Palace also announced the dismissal of Pierre Sage this week, with Thomas Frank the favourite to replace him.

Also, of course, we do have some football to look forward to. Wales are in action against Norway later, with Portugal facing Denmark in their first game since captain Cristiano Ronaldo announced his international retirement.

And there are four WSL games taking place today, with Chelsea hosting Manchester City in the big one.
