Believe PSG are trying to pivot away from all the superstar signings and build up something with a bit more identity. I don't know who this guy is, but maybe that offers some explanation?

 

lol

 

Mbappe denying he wants to leave lol. I get roped in every damn time.

 

The Athletic reporting that Tottenham are looking at Maignan as an alternative to Raya……uh, why isn’t Maignan the top choice???

 

The life of a third-choice goalkeeper seems quite good!

 

Alba-Yedlin the new Alba-Alves.

 

Aside from being great last season, I feel like Levy puts heavy stock into the fact that Raya is HG simply because a club of Spurs size has aspirations of CL football


editing because I just stumbled on this interesting stat line that surprised me:

Raya had the highest save percentage in the PL this season:

1. David Raya (77.0%)
2. Bernd Leno (73.8%)
3. Kepa Arrizabalaga (73.4%)
4. Nick Pope (73.1%)
5. Emiliano Martinez (72.1%)

 

Porto's new away kit is clean.

 

Only thing I can think of is homegrown/costs a little less than Maignan

 

I really hope Eze gets some game time this international break. Just caught up on his interview from today's England presser and he seems like a great lad with an even better head on his shoulders. Such a shame he got injured the last time he was called up.

 

The only way this happens is if he takes a big wage cut.

 

This makes me happy. Absolute scumbag who is a world class player on his day, but really inconsistent.

 

How do I find one without the sponsor ?!

 

I just realized we're in the worst football period that exists - transfer period. I hate everything about it. 99% of the rumours are bullshit anyways but people will post them anyway... I long for the day when the window closes and everything is back to normal.

 

American sports fans love transactions and I’m 100% guilty of that.

 

I used to hate the transfer window, because we were bad at it and ended up buying Mustafi or David Luiz. Now, we’ve had about 4 great windows in a row, and it feels fun.

 

If you're wondering how the off-season is going, a bunch of people on Twitter are thirsting over young Rafa Benitez

 

Been watching MLS highlights on YT for a gameweek or two, and it’s fun cause I know no one and have no real allegiance. Seattle vs Charlotte was fun.

Also answered the question “What happened to Christian Benteke”

 

Well there it is

 

Apparently Hojbjerg could be on his way out with two years left on his deal

 

I was at the Seattle Charlotte game haha

It was stressful. Our backline is a mess.
