I listen to the main Athletic pods and it’s advertised on there quite a bit. Got the second half to get through before bed tonight.

Having never listened before, I can’t second this highly enough. It’s glorious

Think I’ll be skipping this one as it stands, but we’ll see.

It’s largely nonsense, aye. Anyway, add Man Utd to the list of non-CL clubs under financial stress. I’d take Mainoo, Fernandes, or Diallo for a laugh.

Inject it

Really hope they do a Ten Hag and keep Ange mind.

Fucking hell you’re relentless.

How small is Daniel Levy ffs?

They’re the Sunderland in that relationship, it’s exactly what the Mackems would do.

He’d just been giving it the big ‘un when they showed him 5-10 minutes earlier. One of the best bits of the match IMO.

Administration next please.

Someone post the picture

Ahahahaha. That was fucking abysmal.

Imagine all the forrins watching these two fine Premier League specimens for the first time this season

Just looking around Europe at the teams with some quality in them that haven't made the Champions League, that could be vulnerable to Saudi riches: France Lille: Lucas Chevalier (GK) [2027], Bafodé Diakité (CB) [2028], Angel Gomes (CM) [2025], Jonathan David (ST) [2025] Lyon: Rayan Cherki (RW) [2026], Malick Fofana (LW) [2028] Germany RB Leipzig: Castello Lukeba (CB) [2029], Xavi Simons (AM) [2027], Benjamin Sesko (ST) [2029], Lois Openda (ST) [2028] Stuttgart: Angelo Stiller (CM) [2028], Enzo Millot (AM) [2028] Italy AC Milan: Mike Maignan (GK) [2026], Fikayo Tomori (CB) [2027], Malick Thiaw (CB) [2027] Fiorentina: Moise Kean (ST) [2029] Portugal Porto: Diogo Costa (GK) [2027], Rodrigo Mora (AM) [2030], Samu Aghehowa (ST) [2029] Spain Real Sociedad: Takefusa Kubo (RW) [2029] Two of Juventus, Lazio, and Roma will be added to this, too. Quite a few in here you'd think could be a fit, though I appreciate an equal number wouldn't.

I do think Krul and Forster are well-settled down south these days, mind, but agree it makes too much sense to not pursue.

Left centre-back is our strongest single position, I’d say.

These sorts of occasions are what we were all yearning for during the dark times, we have to embrace them really.

Wonder if Magic Mike fancies joining Sandro.

He lost the ball more times than he completed a pass, aye.
