Sometimes you just need to connect the dots.
BREAKING: Al-Nassr are close to agreeing a deal worth around £44m to sign Joao Felix from Chelsea.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - because this is ludicrous. Just imagine if Manchester United get good again…
Yes, the claim is true. Manchester United's pre-season match against West Ham at MetLife Stadium on July 26, 2025, drew 82,566 fans—the highest soccer attendance in the USA this summer, exceeding the Club World Cup final's 81,118.
United looked sharp with that 66-minute XI. Looked fitter than PL oppo, which is new. Encouraged by Ugarte, Mainoo and Hojlund. Heaven in fans’ strongest XIs is a little premature, for me. Still baffled me that some wanted to sell Fernandes. Silly quality. Plenty to build on!
Matheus Cunha is giving me those Bruno Fernandes 2020 vibes. Talking like a man who knows he won’t fail.
How many players have rejected Newcastle this summer, now?! Including their own... Nightmare, humbling window for a club that has just won their first trophy in 70-odd years and qualified for the UCL. Is the location of Newcastle actually as big a factor as some suggest? 😳

Yeah if Liverpool somehow pull the funds for Alexander Isak from the back of the sofa after already committing about £400m in transfer fees and wages this summer, let’s wrap things up here
Truly woeful time for the Manchester Reds to be in the pits. 🥲
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Alexander Isak tells Newcastle he wants to explore move away from club 👇 Full 💣 details amid Liverpool interest... #nufc #lfc dailymail.co.uk/sport/football…
Romano is obvs good at what he does but I can't be the only one to notice an increased number of "here we go'd" deals that haven't happened this summer. Can't plan for U-turns I suppose, but surely only say a catchphrase that indicates a deal is done... when the deal is done? 🤷♂️

I get content is content but I really do think we, as a collective fanbase, need to stop believing everything overseas newspapers write. 99% of the time it is agent/club-driven inaccuracies to generate interest.
🚨 JUST IN: Manchester United are preparing a £22M bid to sign Javi Guerra from Valencia. Valencia will not accept anything less than £26M. #MUFC [@DavidTorres1975, @eldesmarque]
✈️ United’s pre-season tour squad: Plenty of youth getting involved! Perhaps a hint at who is nearing a potential breakthrough. Harry Maguire has stayed in Manchester due to a personal matter. There is hope he joins up down the line.
Florian Wirtz: £116m/€135m, £370k/€425k p/w. Hugo Ekitiké: £79m/€95m, £250k/€290k p/w. Wirtz's wages quintupled, Ekitiké's quadrupled. The biggest Premier League transfer ever, the other is top 10. If another club - particularly Manchester United - did this, there would be…
