Vida "clarified" that tho, what he meant to say was "Glory to Croatia" so he avoids any repercussions.

Well, we all mix up the names of the country of our birth and are representing right there with a completely different one don't we?

Get this signed guys - https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/223013 (Make Monday a bank holiday if England win the world cup)

Already reached the necessary 100k to get a debate in Parliament

The more signatures the better  

I personally dont agree.  I think its unfeasible to expect employers to be able to plan with only 24 hours notice. I think you would hope employers would be flexible and no doubt sick leave would be high.

@WS_Jack_III What do you think about our transfer activity so far? Dubravka being made permanent was such a vital signing, I'm of the opinion that we've needed a goalie since Krul got injured 4 years ago.

A few places are suggesting that Ki is a replacement for Merino. Disappointing if that's the case, as Merino looked good until his injury and he's still young, but lots of reports that he's off to Spain.

Kennedy signing can only be a good thing, but the "loan with an option to buy next summer" feels like we're just giving Chelsea more chances to find a better offer? I'm also not impressed of the rumours of Ritchie being sold to raise funds, he's been our best player these last 2 seasons!

It's not even that is it? It's six hours notice tops, five if it goes to ET. On a Sunday night.

Got Breeders tix for O2 Institute in Birmingham tomorrow. They've just announced they're showing it on a screen for ticket holders. Not sure what will happen if we get XT or pens

I wouldn't rule out a bottling or booing happening if it goes to extra time and they don't show it.

Yup done deal. 100m for a player who will be 34 this season. 

Hea a freak though. Could still easily be winning Ballon d'Ors aged 35. 

 

[jump]

Gone for £105M, Real made a £25m profit on him despite his age too.

Perfect move for Ronaldo and Juventus.

Honestly reckon it will be brilliant for all involved. The timing for Ronaldo is exquisite and he is moving to a league that will compliment his play / allow him to perform to his high standards. Juventus also securing the biggest match winner on the planet. If anyone can lead them to Champions League glory, it's this man.

Age is nothing in this deal. He'll make history there, guaranteed.

So who gets dropped/sold between Higuain and Dybala?

And who do Madrid go after now?

I reckon they both stay but if one goes it's definitely Higuain.

Neymar, Mbappe, Hazard. In that order.

Don't think it will happen but if Sarri does take over it will be considered a possibility. The two enjoyed a very successful working relationship at Napoli.

Surprised Real didn’t try to get Dybala as part of the deal.

[jyoung]

 

[thetime]

Surprised not more of the big boys around Europe never tried for Ronaldo. 

Amazed United never, especially with how they are currently obsessed with marketing transfers.

Is he good enough for Madrid?

They must have a plan. Finished 3rd in the league and 17 points behind Barca. For all their European dominance hes only won 2 leagues there.

Pogba’s twin is doing well an’ all.

If France play to their potential in the World Cup final they should win it. However this is the team who managed to bugger up a home final against a Ronaldoless Portugal.

[TheGayTent]

Shaquiri to Anfield? I do hope that’s true.
