Slam Dunk

What a strike.

Nice finish by Cavani.

If (big if) this is true, I really hope he starts well because the BBC commentary team were already on his back the other night in the Confeds Cup saying he looked low on confidence etc.

It's pretty apparent that he'll be here next season, though whether he's still first choice or not, we'll find out later on. But if you accept that he'll be at Chelsea under Mourinho and he's looking like a better player lately, then that can only be good for Chelsea and surely you'd want him to be improving for the good of the club? Spot on.

...In your opinion. In mine, they did.

Brazil missed him tonight, I think that says a lot about him as a player. Very good signing for Spurs (even if it doesn't seem completely necessary).

Ok, just seen the replay with sound (had music on before ). Definitely a refereeing error.

If so, it's poor refereeing then. Dante was offside for the first goal, so it all evens itself out

Scoreline seems a bit harsh on Italy.

Yeah you're right, I did write the ref 'blew', although i'm not sure if he did (I didn't hear a whistle). Maybe 'gestured' is a better word.

Balotelli usually scores from the spot, so I suppose he was saving some stoppage time

Ref blew for a penalty (so it seems) but gave the goal as the advantage. What's the problem?

This is Neymar's tournament.

Balotelli just out-flicked Oscar there. Lovely assist. 1-1.

Luiz doing what Luiz does best!

Arsenal's £30m per year deal over 5 seasons earns them £170m? Looks like they've found a way to beat FFP, they're just going to lie

It may well have been, but we renewed/extended it last season (if I recall correctly) until the end of 2015 season, with a small increase in the money being paid to us whilst United announced their new deal with Chevrolet which dwarfs our deal with Samsung. My point is that we could get more from another shirt sponsor than what Samsung are currently paying us.

I like Samsung on the shirt, but compared to the sponsorships deals of other clubs at out level, they need to be paying us a lot more than what they are currently. Good news regarding Adidas, though.

So glad he's staying, he'll be like a new signing. With him and Lukaku back, that's (pretty much) the attack sorted... Just a CM, a CB, a backup GK and a CF and then we're done

Well, he was wearing the armband at the time.

Did the Tahiti coach learn at the AVB school of management? High-lines galore.

Great talent, but if he leaves I reckon he'll end up at United or Munich.

Disappointed, but if he wants to leave then he should be allowed to, providing we don't make a loss on the transfer fee and we find a suitable replacement.

Easily the best international game i've seen in a long, long time... ...Gianluigi, what did you think of the game?

Is Honda seriously on a free this summer? Someone is going to get a bargain there.
