    Just saw the most wild transfer rumor - Ribery to Sheffield United on a free. lololol has to be a pile of bs, but I wouldn't hesitate to buy a kit if it SOMEHOW went through.

    Not sure he'd go, but it honestly would not be a real surprise if the club actually approached him. He's available for free, so they could attract him with a nice wage packet and he's a name who would excite the fans.
    The question is how much can he contribute, but this season with Bayern still showed that ability wise, he still very much has it and could probably perform at a decent level in the Prem (even if it was only in spurts).

    Always a matter of when, not if. And now it's happening. Lampard to be announced next?

    AC Milan shake up their executive staff with the appointments of Maldini and Boban.

    Hopefully, this will mark the start of the road back to glory for them. Thee moves only mean so much by themselves, but have to believe that legends, not just of the club but in the game in general would have something positive to bring to the club.
    Sidenote, United really could do with a Chief Football Officer if it meant that Woodward was removed from football operations and decisions for good...

    Anyone see the Celtic official Twitter posted that they have agreed a record fee (for them) for David Turnbull and they made the player an offer. It says so far he hasnt accepted and the club is refusing to increase the offer so the player needs to accept it or ******** off (not quite those words).

    Weird post from an official account.

    Like this team for the most part that Tite has gone with for Brazil's CA opener vs Bolivia. They might miss Neymar's class and the occasional moments of genius he can provide, but I believe they'll be better as a team. Can't wait to see how Neres does on the international stage also.

    Would not be a bad signing, considering our position at the moment. And would definitely be more excited getting Tielemans over Longstaff, who definitely falls into the Daniel James category: a possible good signing at some point down the line, but not very likely to provide the boost we're looking for this season.

    Talks between United and Palace over Wan-Bissaka continue.

    https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...ron-wan-bissaka-crystal-palace-transfer-talks

    The clubs are looking into the possibility of removing the sell on fee on Zaha, which would net United 20% on any sale of the player. As previously stated though, this really should not be dragging much longer: this needs to closed upon, so we can move onto the next target.

    Well done on Ukraine to win the 2019 U20 WC. Their 3rd goal to clinch it was very nice.

    He did talk about Spurs because he was directly asked about them. The reporter did ask him if there was something he wanted (in terms of his next destination) and he responded "no, not really'.
    He did also mention that for now he's going on vacation, relax and will see (where his future lies) afterwards. Definitely does not look like any decision has been made on his part.

    this isn't a question anymore if people want to limit the choice to just the two of them.

    Ghazi is reporting Neymar is on the market.

    PSG are probably tired of his diva bullshit and frequent injuries. Still don't see how anyone outside of Madrid could afford him and attract him.

    Directed at Neymar in particular? Ligue Un titles and other domestic cups are not why they shelled out big money for him among others. About time the club took a stand, if we're being honest.

    Neymar shouldn't have moved there at first place. The vibed was always if Neymar alone was bigger than whole club and ultimately the club had to bend for him but now they have Mbappe aswell so they may consider offloading excess baggage. They need to have a strong manager aswell i think Tuxhel isnt one.

    Tuchel is not the problem: he's a very good and bright manager, who still has the chance at a great future, under the correct circumstances. The problem is with the culture of player power that PSG's higher ups allowed to develop especially when Neymar came on board.
    Very few managers would be successful at that club in that environment. Seeing how the policy of catering to their top players, Neymar especially, has seriously backfired on them (they're still winning domestically, but have seriously regressed when it comes to Europe), they rightfully want to course correct.
    Neymar has to go though, if there is any real hope for things to change. Neymar himself should long for a return to Spain: there is no denying that he was at his best, even when he played "second fiddle" to Messi and Suarez at Barca. Injuries at PSG haven't helped obviously, but he appears to have regressed also compared to when he was at Barca.
    Still believe that if Barca shy away from bringing Griez in (which apparently is backed by the top guys there), trying to make a move to bring Neymar back will be the best thing for all parties concerned. if they And Griezmann going to PSG also makes lots of sense as well: would be a much better fit there than he ever would be at Barca.
