What are we calling him now? 1-0 Marseille

Seen others saying hamstring

Trent gone off with a knee injury looks like

2-2

Kerkez subbed

And Hungary down to 10

Ireland get one back

I think brexit and being shut out of the PL until later (agewise) is a specific Irish problem. i am watching Ireland here and while I’m prepared to admit to being a bit pissed I’m thinking I haven’t really seen Kerkez get forward much yet in 4 games now whereas I thought that was his brand.

And this is the player the Saudis were never going to sell

I see Edwards has doubled down and is now accusing Isak of not trying/match fixing at the end of last season to avoid CL qualification and make it easier for himself to leave. I don’t want to link to it - I think clicks are what he is after.

Odegard gone off as well

I wonder to what extent Hughes has been relying on his connection with Howe (who does seem to want to get rid) for information. And whether Edwards has a line into the Saudis (were they offering him a job a while ago?). Hopefully bid goes in Tuesday morning and they manage to get some donkey in the door between now and then. If not for me it would be a Fofana type + wait to Christmas.

That could simultaneously enable Isak transfer and block Barcola?

So if VVD is out Gravenberch must be playing CB. Jones, McAllister, Elliott playing in this game. Who is the 3rd midfielder at 8pm?

I would have thought Isak is a Van Dijk type case where if you don’t get him now you wait 6 months or 12. And in that scenario maybe Nunez stays for a bit. Fofana back up for Rodrygo yes - or maybe just a better value option?
