🚨⚪️🔴 Jordan Henderson, set to travel to Amsterdam before the weekend to complete Ajax move.
All parties are working to iron out final details of the contract today.
Medical being prepared, waiting on approval to proceed.
⏳ After story revealed last week, deal almost there.
This is one of the most underrated comedic moments in recent football history.
Morata on his knees dramatically begging forgiveness from his fans after knocking out the defending champions in the cauldron of Anfield....
....and Marcos Llorente just going "weeeeee" in the shot.
I went to Naples to meet Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who is the most compelling, exciting player (and story) in Europe, as far as I can tell. Then I went for a pizza tasting menu, which is the high point of human civilisation.
"Tom Holland? He is so so good. More than you believe he is good. The ultimate rizz master. Internet knows this. Zendaya knows this, everyone knows this.”
🎙️ | Getafe spokesperson on Mason Greenwood:
“We do not want to enter the investigation. This guy has been declared innocent, judged, he is innocent like you or me. The moment we see that he is innocent we have no more to say.”

During Wout Weghorst's early weeks at Burnley, he was known to send messages late into the night to team-mates about how they could improve partnerships. [

pretty sure negotiations here didn't start and end in the time since the official verdict was declared
would love the likes of memphis & vinicius to write more essays telling us about how his career is ruined again...
Benjamin Mendy makes his return to football by signing as new Ligue1 side Lorient player, done deal 🚨🟠
Mendy signs until June 2025 as new Lorient left back after he was found not guilty by Chester Crown Court.
Mason Greenwood statement 🔴⤵️
I want to start by saying I understand that people will judge me because of what they have seen and heard on social media, and I know people will think the worst.
I was brought up to know that violence or abuse in any relationship is wrong, I did
Was watching Sean Dyche's Coaches' Voice video as this came out and funnily enough here's a little clip of him talking about rest defence without ever mentioning the term:
One of my favourite things to talk about is "rest defence". If you've heard me mention it and not have a scooby what I mean, then hooooo boy do I have an explainer video for you!
I will die on the hill that on the last ball of the innings you should keep running until the bowling team gets you out, no matter how idiotic it looks.

🚨Manchester United’s plan to bring back Mason Greenwood included listing football pundits, politicians & journalists and categorising if they would be hostile or supportive. Domestic violence charities were assumed “hostile”
Remember that time Thiago Motta mentioned playing a 2-7-2 formation and there were articles about his revolutionary style of playing GKs ahead of the CBs for a week before it turned out he was just talking about a 4-3-3 from left to right
🎙Fabrizio on when he'll retire from football journalism.

Football transfers without Fabrizio's "HERE WE GOs" is going to be so boring man.
I can't find the tweet now, but I'm pretty sure
@Ankaman616
said there'd be a team at the Euros that'd surprise everyone because their players weren't shot to bits, so I thought I'd have an overall look at each country's squad, in terms of age and playing time this season:
FT United 0-6 City:
"They are a so, so, good, top team. Was such a difficult game today, we come here to Old Trafford and fight hard and suffer for 90 minutes. I tell you seriously, Solskjaer is a so good coach, the feeling to beat his team is so good, more than you believe."
Pep Guardiola on his record vs Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: "Congratulations for (Manchester) United for winning these duels against us... or some of them." [via

matteo darmian + raoul bellanova
ironically milan primavera graduates who are now playing for inter, darmian was part of the 2007 cl winning milan!
darmian is a key player for inter, bellanova is vice rwb.
both will be keen to make an impact
"partial evidence in the public domain" is the most fuck-all line I've ever heard and I'd love to hear what complete evidence this club thinks justifies what's in the public domain
🚨🇵🇹 Simeone: "João Félix gave us what he could, he couldn’t give more".
"When you don’t understand the culture where you are, it’s very difficult to coexist".
"Everything good that happens to Joao will be good for Atlético Madrid. Time is the greatest architect of reality".
Arnaut Danjuma is understood to be attracted to the challenge that Everton, and the club’s situation, currently presents, after he signalled that the relegation strugglers were his choice over clubs in Europe and the Premier League.

As if putting up this tweet wasn't bad enough, this guy didn't delete even after knowing exactly what happened to Brook, and now has the audacity to upload a video nearly 12 hours later saying HIS heart is broken?!
Supposed to be a commentator, unprofessional and inhuman clown.
Harry’s biggest problem is not England fans, it’s his performances & future at Man Utd. He’s not the first person to be booed by a few 🤡 & won’t be the last so get on with it! Show some character, perform well & shut people up!! ⬇️
I appreciate that media outlets may not be able to disclose the identities of and/or take a stand on any players involved in legal proceedings but surely the least they can do is to avoid going out of their way to praise someone who's been very publicly accused of sexual assault.

Drury: "Watkins, Oliver, first of his name, first of Emery's favourites, scores the first of this contest with a grass-cutter, the panache of which would put the Royal Gardener to shame. 1-0 to Aston Villa, 36 minutes played."
Neville: "OHHHEYEAHHOYY OLLIE WATKINSSSS"
Peter Drury will be monologging a Shakespearean script as Ollie Watkins puts Aston Villa one nil up against Spurs on a Super Sunday while Carragher and Neville make noises that you thought could only come out of a hyena
Ryan Giggs has been acquitted of charges that he was a violent boyfriend who subjected his partner to years of psychological and, at times, physical abuse.
