    He did say he was leaving the day of the CL Final.

    He's found a final massive pay off in an easier league physically. He can use Juventus'magic doctors as well.

    The bit I struggle with is why he'd want to go there.
    I can totally imagine Ronaldo is the sort of person who'd think, "Right, x number of players have won the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A, I want to do that," or "Only x have won the Champions League with three different clubs." And there must be some part of him, Bale and others that want a new challenge after so much success at Real. Maybe he fancies a change of country and/or Turin. Then of course there's the money - there must be about seven clubs in the world maximum who could afford him, and some of those are rivals of his past clubs.

    He's done all he can in the Spanish game. Time to go full Ibrahimovic and collect the set. Mourinho kinda tried that with management.

    I can't see how Ronaldo has moved for the money. He was on huge money at Madrid, and, even if Juventus have topped that, his commercial earnings were surely better off in a Madrid shirt for the foreseeable future. That's not to say he will have taken a pay cut, but the financial aspect would seem like a secondary concern providing they aren't asking him to play for free.

    I imagine Madrid will have moved him on for payroll reasons and Juve could stump up.

    Judging by those scarves, Torres has joined the most stereotypical Japanese team ever.

    Fernando Torres ending up in a Japanese relegation battle is poetry in motion.

    Brighton signing Percy Tau direct from the PSL is a bloody brave move.

    Real Madrid get 30-40% of his image rights. If they give up even 5-10 of that he's effectively got a raise.

    Karius dropped another bollock in the pre-season game to Tranmere. Apparently crowd on his back straight after.

    I still just about think he's starting the season as our #1, but if the horror show continues, we're going to be forced into action. But just in case the money runs out I'll go check the match footage for a concussion.

    So Ronaldo then. He's got at least another three or four years in him. And now he can't score against us in the CL.

    Let's be honest - this is solely a play to win the CL in the next three years. Which, given we've consistently won everything else, is really what they need to throw everything at achieving. They weren't going to do it by signing decent young players who will inevitably develop, or players who are doing a decent job for a local rival. They needed to go big at some point.

    I like how the Ronaldo moved popped up like Butterkist popcorn. I like players moving around from elite club to elite club. As long as he is fit, there is no doubt in my kind Ronaldo will be at the next World Cup

    Ive just been brought up to speed with this. When the tranmeme guy scored after the Karius mistake, he can be seen looking in the direction of Karius and via lip reading he seemed angry yelling ”he is fucking shit”

    I utterly refused to even acknowledge the Ronaldo rumours until there was full confirmation of the move. My brother was getting really hyped, but I was having none of it. But in retrsopect it was too utterly crazy a story, and lasted too long, to be anything but true

    Arsenal has signed some Sideshow Luiz from French Ligue 2. Good to see Emery has picked up the same scouting guide that Wenger left behind.

    Spurs have yet to sign anyone, despite Pochettino being promised a “big window” by Levy in May. Our closest target is Jack Grealish. Lol

    Chelsea or Tottenham have yet to sign anyone. Looking at the history, none of the top six has sold anyone of note besides fringe retired dudes.

    £50m+ when Utd tried to buy him. The Inter fans were creaming their pants at getting that, apparently he's super inconsistent. And he's nearly 30.

    Getting Seri in this manner reminds me of our previous promotion to the Prem in 2001, when we signed Van der Sar from Juventus.

    Blind looks likely to be on his way back to Ajax. Good to see players like him and Darmian - who aren't really good enough - being moved on.

    I posted the 'story' in this thread at the time. Some guy on reddit claimed to have inside info from someone at the club saying United would sign a sponsorship deal with Kohler (he said this a couple of months ago). Claimed the same guy had told him we would be signing Griezmann.

    The latter obviously turned out to be nonsense, but the former is clearly true so he did have a real source.

    Clement Lenglet (highly rated young French centre back from Sevilla) confirmed for Barcelona. Paid his £31m release clause.

    EDIT: Bizarre talking ball announcement video which is 90% about Messi.

    He's been playing like that since Van Dijk and also Robertson came in. It's the fella behind him and on occasion the right back that be the problem.

    Was he the first choice partner with Van Dijk last season?

    It was him and Matip, with Klavan and Gomez coming in and out. Once Van Dijk came in those 2 were the partnership.
