Surprisingly, they didn't sell two of their best players before the community shield

you can wrap it up now

Good to see it was worth it for Palace for us to agree a delay in transfer until after the Community Shield.

Also thought (small sample size) that Odegaard was so much less involved in our general build up.
Which is good, I feel.

Last season he did because he *had* to.

I'd rather he gets himself more into positions where he then can kill - like for the 2nd goal - rather than collecting balls in our 3rd.

Calafiori in particular, if he please can stay fit, will have opponents like this all the time (in a good way)

Two years ago, after adding Timber, Arteta spoke of a new and unlocked per-game tactical flexibility.

Timber went down in game 1 and it disappeared.

Same last season.

We once again have all the tools to deliver bespoke per-game tactics, the tools just need to stay fit for once.

Think he'll go on deadline day

New Zealand? Bold move

Fabio Vieira will be replaced at Porto by Gabri Veiga who will be replaced at Al-Ahli by Enzo Milliot who will be replaced at Stuttgart by Fabio Vieira

Are we reading anything into Mosquera getting the Kiwior minutes today or nah

Chloe Kelly for the winnahhh

Since when is Havertz *that* quick???

Unreal finish

Rice remembered he hadn't done a 60 yds sprint today so he quickly screwed up his corner

Quite surprised La Liga starts next week as well.

They look quite off the pace

When Scooter sang their famous lines:

Skibadee, skibadanger
I am the rearranger

They were actually singing about Calafiori

Looks like Rice is getting a lot more responsibility in early build-up play this season.

Which is good, makes it less predictable

Was oftentimes quite telegraphed / easy to block last season.

Obviously helps that you now have a DM that's comfortable in other spaces as well.

Structurally, we've been outstanding between the boxes.

If we cut out the own box silliness and bring the efficiency at the other end like in the last 5 minutes - we'll be top.

Zubimendi is an actual superstar midfielder

was apparently already on £120k+ at Leipzig, so it's probably a good amount, yes.

€76.5m fee
8.5m in easily achievable bonus payments
3.5m in solidarity payments
A friendly between RB and United
A sell-on %

Have United gone completely insane?

Bayern will no longer advertise Visit Rwanda, but also won't cut ties entirely, shifting the focus on talent development in the country.

Probably won't matter *much*, if their development continues as expected, they are up for a new and improved one in two years anyway.

The artist formerly known as The Child (due to the arrival of another one) has finally signed his deal.

Yippieh

Great news

they own a % in Monster afaik

Put some respect on that 8m generated from selling Tavares and Marquinhos

Disappointingly, it's not Dr. Pepper

Forget decent fee. Get enough to cover Havertz/Gyökeres wages for a week or two.

Let's start there

Too bad he's only just coming off a full La Liga season as starter.

If only he'd have only played 37 mins in League One on loan, we'd be getting millions for him.
