Oh man... I do, although it's a sore topic. I forgot to cancel my trial and they charged me £60 (just over $80) straight up for a years subscription.

And like, I can afford that but it's really annoying aha.

 

This is a great look into a kid who looks set for a great season. He's been great whenever he played for us, and Huddersfield fans have been raving about him online after his loan in the second half of last year.

Arsenal's breakthrough star - Emile Smith Rowe

 

i got a year of the atletic for like 20 quid or something. I rarely read it

 

Lionel Messi Is Now Unsure If He Can Leave Barcelona And Could Stay At Club, Report Claims

Forbes is usually reliable.

 

hopefully. as hilarious as it would be to see Messi leave Barca on a free, I don't want him going to City.

 

I saw rumours of Juventus being interested in Messi. Messi and Ronaldo together, please make it happen.

 

This morning is the first time I recall the English papers reporting Ndombele out. I think it'll happen. Definitely sucks he didn't work out because he has the talent. But it's been consistently reported for the last 6 months or more that he isn't working hard enough. Ideal scenario would be replacing him with Grealish. But who knows what will happen.

 

I don't see Spurs paying 80 million for Grealish.

 

Well yeah no one will haha but I also don't think he'd go for that if a move happened

 

Villa don’t really need to sell. I think the fact we signed VDB after rumours for months were that we had an agreement with Villa and Grealish about a transfer means they changed their mind after staying up. I think Grealish will have to request a transfer to get a move and I don’t think he will do that.

 

yeah I agree with that and I had hope for it when he wasn't called up to the national team but now because of others backing out he's in the squad so there goes that

 

Yeah I had posted back when the squads were announced that it could be a good thing for a buying club if he wasn't called up.

 

Is that really his expected going rate?

 

Yep

 

Yikes. I was able to avoid that last year. Ended up paying for two years on a deal.

I'd suggest reading it more. They've stepped up their UK coverage and I think have a rep at every PL club from last year. Their in depth features are some of my favorites. The podcasts are nice but I usually deal with the ads because of the convenience of listening on Overcast.

 

The Athletic is fantastic. Michael Cox is always great. Their Spurs coverage is solid and reliable.

 

the way he says west ham is hilarious to me lol

 

Legend, have never hated a fictional villain as much as I hated him in WWF back in 1999-2000 lol

 

also:

 

I can’t help but feel like that won’t go well. They don’t strike me as becoming great friends.

 

Michael Cox is awesome. Requesting his book for my birthday this year.

 

I hope we keep hold of Wijnaldum. He's a fantastic player to have in your squad.

 

Sounds normal to me...

 

I know it’s a documentary and isn’t going to show him too negatively but god damn Jose is pure gold in it and I’ve come around. I know, it’s a trap.
