He already is a knight of this realm. Google it.

i did , it says he has an mbe, but i meant why would he want to be a sir in this country with the titles he already has in his own

Google is wrong! He didn’t choose, it was a diplomatic move.

Probably appropriate for the 2nd best manager we have had. Sir Bobby Robson was called a failure too, its what this country does.

I’ve just googled it. From Google:
Mansour was joined in receiving a knighthood by Demis Hassabis, founder of artificial intelligence company DeepMind, and by film-making couple Christopher Nolan and Emma Thomas, who will receive a knighthood and a damehood. American businessman Ted Sarandos, the co-chief of Netflix, was given an honorary knighthood.2

I'm more a stats person. He's achieved more, which for me has been brilliant having seen so many managers not get us to those finals. It's been a frustrating 50 years as an England fan for me.
