Have they decided what number he will get? :pie_thinking:
Also will they hand him penalties and free kicks?

Rumour has it, they're just writing GOAT on his jersey and leaving it.

He'll take penalties, free kicks and corners .. to which he'll take and then run into the box to head it into the net.

Sound like a plan.
Actually if he link up with Pogba well he will win the league golden boot.

Don't forget, Cristiano Ronaldo re-signed for Manchester United.



Just in case anyone wasn't aware. :messenger_winking_tongue:

He’s a Blues fan but it’s a pity it’s taken him 11 years to join. Kind of shocking because Birmingham don’t have any money and although Watford let him go on a free, they are still paying 90% of his £75,000 a week. Blues paying £10,000 of it so kudos to Watford.

Nah. Serious? Missed that. Saw that some french player decided he was staying at some french club but couldn’t have been anything major as it would have been all over the news too ;)

Someone known for TMNT? tried to go elsewhere to someone wearing white but the french club refused, otherwise April would be reporting it on the news.

[MisterChip] Sweden ends Spain's 66-game unbeaten streak in World Cup qualifiers. Spain went undefeated for over 28 years in the competition, with the last defeat in 1993



Every run eventually come to an end sadly.

I thought he would keep the number to be honest. On the other hand we don't know what happened he might have offered it.
Apparently 21 is his country number so they’ve not pissed him off too much. Secretly he’ll be fucking pissed though.

[Fabrizio Romano] Koundé-Chelsea deal. Sevilla manager Lopetegui: “Koundé didn’t join Chelsea because our Sevilla board decided it was the right thing to do, based on the value of the offers. For me it’s positive - he’ll perform again at top level”, he told to Diario de Sevilla. 🔵 #Sevilla #CFC

Fucking hate the international breaks at the start of the season. Boring as fuck having no football.
This one is always such shitty timing every year as well. The new season is just getting started and it comes along to disrupt things right when you're getting back into it.

Advantage: the players get to play some football to get in form.
Disadvantage: the players may get injured and can't play for the club.

This is great quality content.


Next summer though :pie_thinking:
The thing is I think we will get a big signing up front next summer either way. Some people even speculate he will not renew and instead sign a pre-contract agreement in the winter transfer window.

Grealish was one of our best players at Euro 2020/21 and yet could barely get a start. Suddenly, a large transfer to one of the "big clubs" (Sorry Villa fans) and oh look, he comes on as one of the 3 subs to get us across the line against Andorra along with Kane & Mount, and starts against Poland.

While as a city fan I can't see him making the 20 point gap you had last year its a great signing for utd in the way of he will push all other players on team the guys the ultimate professional who can easily play into early 40s plus the wisdom he will pass onto greenwood etc is invaluable.

Obviously as a United fan I wouldn't have wanted to see him play for City. But it would have been kinda fascinating to see how he'd fit into a Pep system.

Disappointing to see Giggs welcomed back like this despite the investigation he's currently under.
