Jacquet just looks the business. Even spoke perfect French on his post-match interview live on French TV

Can’t get too excited about it. Even if titles are stripped and re-awarded, it only means United go ahead of us in the honour roll. And players or City owners won’t walk away despite any slap on the wrist punishments such as points deductions or even relegation.

So passive No energy or guile whatsoever

Context from The Athletic Manchester United’s partnership with Qualcomm, who carry the branding of its subsidiary company Snapdragon on shirts, has previously been reported by The Athletic to be worth in the region of £60m per year, which puts the two rivals broadly on the same level. Manchester City’s long-standing deal with Etihad Airways is thought to bring in a higher yield but that also covers naming rights for the club’s stadium. The same applies to Arsenal and their own long association with Emirates Airlines. A five-year deal with Turkish Airlines, running through to 2033, also comes at a time when others have struggled. Chelsea began a fourth consecutive Premier League season without a sponsor last month before eventually striking a one-year partnership with Circle Internet group to cover this campaign. Their search for a long-term partner ultimately goes on. Liverpool’s latest commercial improvements also illustrate the gulf between the so-called big six and the rest of the Premier League. Aston Villa’s record front-of-shirt deal with Visit Rwanda is worth up to £20m a year, a similar level to Newcastle United’s new arrangement with Knox. Others in the Premier League would be happy to find a deal one sixth the size of Liverpool’s latest shirt sponsor.

First time in the PL a review has been cancelled due to an offside subsequently found.

That's just the films they show on Friday nights

There's going to a documentary on his recuperation on Canal Plus in France https://x.com/CanalplusFoot/status/2095447549515567596?s=20

Ipswich have spent 200 million this summer.

A lot of people think injuries are a moral failing or a guarantee that another injury is going to happen. Injuries happen, players get better, then they play football.

I'd take the Irish FA bit with a pinch of salt as he was public enemy number one in Ireland for a while last year and probably still is for some.

The window has been so bad that even club PR wings James Pearce and the Echo are being critical.

I think the Barcola pic needs some context. I think this is him arriving for France squad duty, and their recent team culture or custom is for players to arrive as if for a fashion show, the most outlandish but still haute couture the better. I don't think he'll rock up at Kirkby like that.

Frimpong was bought to cover both Bradley and Salah and the truth is that Bradley is a better right winger and Salah a better right back than Frimpong is.

It's not that they haven't spent. It's that they've spent like a kid playing Football Manager for the first time. And, yes, zero ambition to push on and dominate, especially in the post-Pep era.

Lad on Twitter says City have spent more in 2026 than we have since Klopp went

Shows they learned absolutely nothing from signing Mama 35 million for a player who won’t be a regular for three or four years if at all

Likewise, but I really can't see any way the likely successors will be better.

A song

The Roma coach has put a veto on the move apparently but would not surprise me if Chelsea land Kone and Camara

Can Minteh play right back of DM Foday Manneh @foday_manneh_ Yankuba Minteh to Liverpool FC is not off until the last hour as anything could happen. The player’s camp held talks with #LFC last night pushing for a deal which ended with some positives. #LFC has not contacted the player since this morning, but they also have not closed their pursuit yet. They may go fast to complete a deadline-day deal with Andoni Iraola still demanding Minteh’s profile. The player’s agent is indeed in England which can make everything easier should an agreement be reached. However, nothing is new yet. Long hours ahead

They’re rebuilding without scaffolding. A shiny McMansion with no working bogs

We’ve generally done better without one

Talk of Chelsea in for Kone and Gibbs-White They are really in a different league than us And who knows. If the Boston Billionaires and Nepo Baby Bhatia keep on keeping on, we soon will be
