Yes, also when Covid stopped game day ticket sales, Inter have not been making their payments to Man Utd. Their club really is in financial chaos.

This deal does not make a lot of cash for Inter. They still owe Man Utd 40M for Lukaku and a 25% sell on fee.

They really do not have a clear path. That €85M is all upfront money. Man Utd do not do that. They try to spread it over 5 years if possible. That is just the release clause, then comes all the agent fees, father money, and signing bonus. The Glazers hate up front buys. The real danger is if PSG loses Mbappe. They will pay everything up front and Riola has ties to PSG.

This is starting to get really cringey.

This is going to be drama central, unless he just lost his car keys.

I had to go make sure I watched the same game as others. I did not find Sarr dreadful in defense. That said, he would get punished in the PL. He is undersized and does not anticipate the ball well so he does not get ahead of the attack and is defending moving back all the time. Malang Sarr [45] - 6/10 Fired an effort into row Z, and then some, as the game drew to a conclusion. Not infamous for his finishing, but his defending was solid, and that's what he earns a wage for.

Arsenal Mania 43 pages on this game. Page 9 is where the game begins with a little hope and they turn on their team by page 12. After page 15 I couldn’t take the whining anymore.

Ziyech is not the player he was in the Dutch league. How he didnt score with a wide open net after Pulisic lofted a beautiful ball to him was mystifying.

I didnt realize that was Sarr!

The last two games Zappacosta has been fun to watch, he is fast.

He played well, but he would get abused in the PL. Tammy got a goal, but easily should have had two more. Barkley, RLC, Baba, Drinkwater need to go on loan or all but RLC need to be sold.

It has been fun to watch. Zouma has not looked solid. I wonder how much trade talks get in their heads?

I may need a Pat Nevins translator when he gets excited!!

The Arsenal and Bournemouth games are charity games. You pay.

Broja has scored in every preseason game/scrimmage so far, if you count the inter-team game/scrimmage in Ireland.

Remember last year that Jan insisted that Werner would go to Liverpool, even after there were reports that Chelsea was in contact with him.

Arsenal fans are already treating this preseason game like it is a cup final.

He will draw more fouls, that is about it.

Why? I don’t need the mental image of Haaland in a thong! 😂

I think Dortmund want a really big bid.

Protests and Glazers Out campaign.

With the Super Cup coming fast, I would like to see our starters playing together in the second half.

I wanted to be impressed with Sarr. He did not do anything wrong, but I cannot say I was impressed. Do not know who he could replace for a spot on the first team?
