Waited until Newcastle agreed a deal and then gazumped them. Brutal. And that’s just for me. 😬😬#nufc
City will sign James Trafford for £27m. Matched an offer Newcastle had accepted by Burnley. Will sign a 5+1 deal to return to the Etihad. Stefan Ortega expected to leave and Trafford will challenge Ederson this season #mcfc

Reunited with my Football Gossip Daily partner in crime @MaisieAdam and the devil on my shoulder @JoCurrie in Zurich this evening. There was some laughter

Newcastle have been preparing for this moment for months. They had a plan in place but can they stick to it under pressure? There is no gun to their head. Selling Alexander Isak is their choice to make and the ramifications will be huge #NUFC

England vs Spain on Sunday. Just as it was in the World Cup final two years ago. England can win if they play well. Spain have not looked great in this tournament by their standards. Neither have England. Game on.
