Gone, but not forgotten

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 “One poem follows another”
Just like Haaland’s goals
But elsewhere the scores dry up
And another coach’s head rolls

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 And so it is
That tetchy Tuchel takes leave
But do mighty Chelsea
Have a handy replacement up their sleeve?

Notes

Inspiration?
1. 07/09/2022 – Thomas Tuchel dismissed as Chelsea manager.
2. Twinned with the news item from the preceding day:
Mohamed Ibrahim Warsame, inspirational Somali poet, dies at the age of 79.
His last words to the BBC African correspondent: ‘One poem follows another, just like life.'”
3. Erling Haaland’s form following his transfer into the Premier League with Man City.
