CLINICAL FROM JOSH SARGENT 💪Two games, two goals so far this season for the USMNT star 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/sBRhXDUWbv— CBS Sports Golazo ⚽️ (@CBSSportsGolazo) August 12, 2025 If Sargent stays healthy and doesn’t move I predict he’s going to win the golden boot in the Championship.
Aidan Morris comes on for Middlesbrough at 61' with Boro 2-0 down at home to League Two Champions Doncaster.
Bournemouth just sold the third of their four starting defenders from last season to PSG........ (one earlier moved to Real Madrid and another Liverpool) Matai Akinmboni implications?
Maybe more relegation implications. they better have a solid and quick plan to replace them. My worry is now Adams will get overworked and injured. It's not like he's an iron man.
Bournemouth have also raked in ~200 million from the sale of these three defenders. [Their goalkeeper is also gone from last year.] We'll see how they invest it......................and they still have Iraola as coach. Diakite from Lille was just officially announced today. He was on France's recent Olympic team. We used to hear CCV's name mentioned for clubs in this band of the Premier League. Rumors about him have been few and far between in this window. [After Rangers started the season poorly, Celtic has already been handed the SPL title.]

Chris Richards and Crystal Palace will face Fredrikstad in their two-legged Conference League playoff series, starting next week. #USMNT— Larry Henry Jr (@lhenry019) August 14, 2025 Chris Richards and Crystal Palace will face Fredrikstad in their two-legged Conference League playoff series, starting next week.
Might have gone unnoticed but EPB just kept a clean sheet against a very strong team that is constantly a contender to win European trophies; Shakhtar Donetsk. Pitched a shutout, went to a shootout, and Panathinaikos won. Great result against a team I think most would consider to be much stronger. EPB went the 120. Probably his most notable game in a long time.......happy to see it.
It's good to know EPB is fit and starting. He's 28, now. What a peripatetic European adventure he has had. Looks like Charlotte's Karol Swiderski got the start at striker. Small world. 1 key pass 65/68 passing 3/4 long ball 5/6 duels 6 clearance FM(7.6)5th
Yup…….. gets ya thinking. Is the league that he plays at really too far off CCV or Trusty? Wouldn’t think by much …….
and... ya know... CCV and Trusty barely ever play for the USMNT as is. Not really a powerful comparison.
Current centerback pool right now is Richards, McKenzie, .......probably Ream, and ????. Did we just get deep at centerback all a sudden?? Id like to think 3 and 4 are open to scrutiny. 28 is rolling into the prime of a centerback. There's still player development to be had there. Basically 23-24 for other positions.
Ook tegen FC Twente ontbreekt Ricardo Pepi in de wedstrijdselectie van PSV vanwege een spoortje vocht in de knie. ,,We zullen wat geduld moeten hebben", geeft trainer Peter Bosz aan.— Jeroen Kapteijns (@JeroenKapteijns) August 15, 2025 Also against FC Twente, Ricardo Pepi is absent from PSV's match selection due to a trace of fluid in the knee. "We will have to be a bit patient," says trainer Peter Bosz

I'm officially worried about Pepi............................. Hopefully needlessly. Hopefully he's back starting in 3 weeks. ............but I'm worried.
Clinical finish by Sargent: Anyone ever criticizes MLS defending, show them a reel from EFL Championship.Our guy Josh Sargent 🇺🇸 getting fat on it. https://t.co/AX6s8nMI4w— Maximiliano Bretos (@MaxBretosSports) August 16, 2025
Tessmann starting ffor Lyon, 60th minute 1-0 over Lens Haji Wright scores a penalty for Coventry in a 5-3 win over derby
And so it ended, 1-0 for Lyon over a Lens side thats been pretty strong in recent years. Tessmann went 90, great start to season.
