The Athletic saying Ruben Neves available for £35m from Wolves. United should be all over that. United also after a CB (Pau Torres looks likely) and obviously Sancho.
Kounde to Liverpool looks all but done.
AC Milan have signed a keeper which suggest Donnarumma is on his way.
Wijnaldum off to Barca, along with Aguero and likely Depay.
Where is the euro thread?
So much wrong in that OP. Start as you mean to go on.
I'll see what people want to do. I think for the World Cup we had a thread for each group then for each knockout round? But if people want to just lump it into one massive monstrosity of a thread.Originally Posted by SincereTheRebel
Are they actually going to happen and if they do, in what guise? I don't pay as much attention as I once did, but they begin in about 2 weeks and I've heard so little about them.
The provisional squads have been getting announced, Yev. It's time to catch EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP FEVER!
I'm a traditionalist and much prefer a thread per group then per round
Our provisional 67-man squad is out, and pleased to say that everyone has been named in it.
And still Stuart Dallas overlooked after the season he's had, Southgate such a mug
No Eric Dier
No Tomori
Yeah, Tomori is a strange one when he’s included Ben White. I know he’ll be dropped out of the actual squad, but Ramsdale even being included is mental. He’s the worst goalkeeper in the league by a long shot.
Isn't he Top Irish?And still Stuart Dallas overlooked after the season he's had, Southgate such a mug
I was wondering this too. Are they still having matches all over the continent? That doesn't seem like a great idea just yet.
He’s Northern Irish but I’m hoping Taz already knew that
I haven't really been aware of the draw until now. North Macedonia, crikey. Goran Pandev is only 37 years old and not 46, crikey. Austrian squad with 21 German-based players, crikey (who tf plays in the Austrian league then?). Yuri Zhirkov still plays for Russia, crikey. I've never heard of half the Italy squad, crikey. Germany doomed in the group of death, crikey.
Should be interesting if it doesn't get called off by Interpol. Much better than all the meaningless recent club football.
France’s odds in the group are mental. I have no idea why they have Germany as favourites to beat France never mind topping the group.
Liverpool to sign Mbappe, Haaland, Ronaldo and Suarez.
I'm a twit
Let's all pray Taz doesn't reply to that post saying it's wrong.
I didn't know fact checking would hurt your feelings so much. I'm just doing my duty to ensure the quality of the thread, your 100 posts of 'Sancho is done' was not welcome last summer.
It was done, Taz, and then it wasn't. Duh.
It's Konate Liverpool are signing, right?
I've no idea if that's a better or worse thing than signing Koundé, although looking the latter up, 178cm for a centre half sounds a bit dicey.
Completely agree. And if fans can legally travel (even if they can't go into the stadiums), they will. Clusterfruitcake waiting to happen.
If there was any other country in Europe that could host the whole thing (as we could) and have COVID under control (as we do) it'd be moved there in a flash, but it's England, so it won't.
Yeah the one at RB Leipzig. They had the best defence in Germany last year, but I'm not sure that's saying much really.
Doesn't look good for Kabak if Klopp's worked with him since January and thinks going and spending nearly double on Konate is the better option.
Kabak is rubbish though.
Not sure this Konate played much in said best defence.
Would you be surprised to learn he's injury prone?
Whoops.
Anyway, Heaton to United in the blockbuster move of the summer.
Jethro's potentially coming back on a freebie. Released by Frankfurt who did nowt with him. Stupid sausage people.
Haaland has been named the Bundesliga player of the season
It’s almost like individual awards are about marketing than anything.
A fucking monkey could score thirty in that league for Bayern, but presumably whoever was scoring for Dortmund actually won them points instead of putting a dicey 6-0 to bed.
It was a fan voted award. Dortmund fans are rabid online.
On a related note, is Phil Foden (Philf Oden) as eligible for Ireland as he looks?
My guy Bamford has Irish U18 caps
Soumare to Leicester and Wijnaldum to Barca look done.
Never watched him but Soumare looks filth on paper.
Yeah, he's definitely been talked up as a big deal in the past (emergence of Camavinga seems to have replaced him as the go to hot prospect French midfielder) so will probably be a cracking signing for them.
Christophe Galtier leaving Ligue 1 champions to join 9th place Nice. Lille must be in financial ruin.
Think it’s more the Nice owner wants to spend some of his billions.
I'm a twit
Is that the INEOS guy?
Yep.
Kasper Dolberg watches for the whole squad.
Conte has left Inter. Rumoured to be because they are in big financial trouble and need to sell €80m worth of players this summer.
Also Dybala to Atletico doing the rounds.
UEFA could probably end them. They should just sell Ronaldo to some other poorly ran nightmare.
Now he’s left Lukaku will probably join Chelsea.
I would hire him tomorrow if United lose tonight.
United briefing has gone out saying our targets for the window are Kane, Sancho, Rice and Pau Torres. Only looking at £350m+.
Because of the way that sentence reads to me, I'm calling him Pilau Torres.
Indeed.
I heard strong rumours about Pau Torres as well. It's on.
