super header

1 nil Gvardiol with a great header

I want Ziyech to score at least one, drive up his value

NO to bringing TAMMY BACK no no no the bloke is tracking to 8 or 9 goals and 5 or 6 assists for the season and will cost a shedload probably within £15m or so of Osimhen and more than Vlahovic would cost

How are you feeling, m8? Big hugz ⚽️⚽️⚽️

A couple of years ago I called him Sideshow Bob, lolol.

Cucurella was a shit buy, especiallyfor that cray price. Warned on it. He was pushed on us before last summer too and I said no then as well.

Completely disagree, Gvardiol is the best young CB I have seen in years he is worth at least £100m

the video says otherwise just sayin'

yes, here are so many angles, it was hardly an 'OMG did you see that, he sat him on his arse!' moment

That's around £112, 113m (pound is down v the euro today) and is not just straight money I already said he was worth £100m or a bit over, so hardly a shock, the bloke is 20 years old and already this good and that Messi move was one thing out of hundreds of other interaction all WC long, Gvardiol was immense in all games, and even Beckenbauer and Maldini got spun the wrong way many times

Chelsea ready to make concrete attempt to sign £67m player who Arsenal are annoyed with https://www.thechelseachronicle.com/transfer-news/report-Chelsea-ready-to-make-concrete-attempt-to-sign-67m-player-who-arsenal-are-annoyed-with/ Reports from Italy have claimed that Chelsea are ready to make a concrete attempt to Dusan Vlahovic from Juventus. According to Corriere Dello Sport, the Blues are prepared to rival their fellow Premier League sides for the striker who has recently been seen scoring at the World Cup.

he looks quite explosive, time will tell

new rules have stopped that from ever getting to the old Loan Army days again I approve of this signing

For the first time ever, no British fans were arrested at the World Cup https://eu.usatoday.com/story/sports/soccer/2022/12/14/world-cup-2022-england-wales-no-arrests/51072329/

Bayern Munich, Inter Milan continue to rule World Cup as 40-year run of finalists continues in Qatar https://www.espn.co.uk/football/blog-the-toe-poke/story/4831711/bayern-and-inters-incredible-streak-of-world-cup-finalists France will be facing Argentina in the 2022 men's World Cup final with the prospect of being the first team to retain their title since Brazil in 1962, but the match-up also guarantees that an extraordinary streak dating back four decades will continue when the showpiece kicks off in Qatar on Sunday. At least one player from both 10-time reigning Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich and Serie A giants Inter Milan has been involved in every World Cup final since Italy's 3-1 victory over West Germany in the 1982 decider in Spain. What's more, when Kylian Mbappe leads the line against Lionel Messi & Co. in the 2022 final at the Lusail Stadium, both Bayern and Inter will once again have a player involved. Qatar 2022 Bayern: Benjamin Pavard, Dayot Upamecano, Kingsley Coman, Lucas Hernandez (France). Inter: Lautaro Martinez (Argentina) We are once again guaranteed to have at least one Bayern and one Inter player taking part in the Qatar final. Inter are represented by Argentina, while France have plenty of Bayern players in their squad to ensure the streak will continue into the 2026 tournament.

No clue is going to win between the Argies and France the two best teams by far in the tourney Pessi seems on a mission and their MF matches up well, but Otamendi is potentially huge weak spot Mbappe has been a bit quiet the last 2 games, so I expect him to blow up, Molina will have his hands full, and Konate seems to have solved their CB issue with Upamecano, he was rock solid yesterday, and another key is Adrien Rabiot's health (he missed the last game with a flu) I am going to go 3 2 France (but zero shock if that is flipped)
