Charity shield this weekend, plus a few games in Ligue 1 for whoever cares (allStah Lyon-Dijon about to start on BeIn fwiw)

I feel better now. Year two is optional. I can deal with that.

Welcome to the club Thiago!

Don’t like the Havertz deal, but he is a chelsea guy now. So let’s go!
And Pulisic get your ass on the pitch and stay on it.

Too early to be staring at this

*chefs kiss*

I'm buying those shorts just to rock it around the house, so gd gorgeous! The color + the cut!


Plus the intro video for it Is epic. We're not very relevant in the global football stage at this point, But we still got it in terms of branding, fun stuff:

Beautiful strike

Is Liverpool just not really trying right now? Arsenal have been on the front foot almost the entire first half.

PS: Auba, come to Barça plz.

Edit: also loved the Black Panther/Boseman celebration.

MF looking super turgid when Milner plays. Firmino/Salah waupy too static too

It's not like John Henry doesn't have the money.

I get that they're all about developing young talent rather than buying it all.

But trying to go through another entire season with basically only one full starting XI would be a mistake and there's no way Klopp doesn't know that.

Any game there and regardless of circumstances I feel good. Can't say same for Emirates.

Lots of key players missing too. But still an exhibition.

Really need midfield enforcements!


And please keep Ainsley!

Would love to be surprised.

I’m no fan of JM Aulas but what he has built on the women’s side of his club is insane

it's getting obnoxious, but I also don't mind watching them win, even when I like the other team. They were even missing a bunch of their regular starters, but they still have a ridiculous lineup. When they signed Karchoui that just wasn't fair lol. It's like watching USWNT at the last World Cup, they just showed up.

Now's a pretty good time to start trying to watch the Women's Super League too, Man City signed Rose Lavelle and Sam Mewis, there was a whole exodus after that NWSL Cup finished. Man U were rumoured to be looking at Heath and Press. I read some tweet somewhere that that level of Lyon Dominance is 'costing' the club $10 million euros, I wouldn't mind seeing some other big clubs realize they can spare that much and compete with that.

How do you pronounce her name 🤔

I remember being impressed with Diame in the WWC and then wondering why Karchaoui wasn’t playing

I probably have too many women's soccer baes lol

She's still young and they seem to have a lot of talent in her position to develop in France, and they seemed to favour OL players back then, which she was not yet. Her performance at that U20 world cup where she got moved from mid-field to that left-back position due to someone's injury was crazy, she played out of her own 18 yard box with more confidence than a lot of strikers in their oppositions.

And we're bringing in Matty Cash, which will make Freddie Guilbert the CONSERVATIVE option at right back. It's a good day.

It really is just a matter of when at this point. United is rumored, but if it comes following the purchase of D.VDB, it looks a little suspect. I'm not sure how they both see the pitch at the same time.

if they find an interesting CM deal they might do it. but if villa wants 70m for grealish then VDB at a much better deal is good enough for me. he's CL proven and experienced international

i bet grealish will end up at arsenal or liverpool for the 21/22 season

and if he doesn't like where things have turned he'll be allowed to go in January or Summer. Until then, it's pay up or kick rocks. Edens and Sawiris aren't hurting for cash, so they don't need the money and Edens likely sees Jack as Football Giannis for lack of a better comparison.
