    Credit to turtleboy.

    Joao Pedro looks something else for Brighton. Going from Maupay to no strikers was a positive move for a couple seasons but they've now got 2 strikers threatening to become elite and even Welbeck looks potent. Adingra looks like what Utd thought they were getting when they spent €25m rising to €40m on little Amad too.

    He's just rejected half Messi's career earnings for a year's work and the white man will still try and paint him as the scumbag.

    I agree with Taz about Joao Pedro. He looked really good for Watford but only in brief patches so I was a bit surprised at the fee Brighton paid. He clearly he just needed a half decent manager to unlock his potential. He bossed Chelsea.

    I've got the phrase 'Proper Chels' trending in my twitter, owing to the fact that Action Jackson chased down a loose ball during a pre-season friendly against Newcastle. These guys need other sports and hobbies to follow in the summer.

    Some truly superb goat herding action here. Particular fan of the pitchside gazebo, and people watching while sitting on the steps of a nearby leisure centre.

    Looks a canny place for a kickabout. I felt the same when England had their last qualifier over there.

    The geezer with one of the most ferocious shots in the game being such a humongous fanny is not a great look.

    I think so. Our midfield looks packed but he'd probably jump ahead of Sean Longstaff in the pecking order. And the Champions' League will stretch the squad a bit.

    Yeah, on paper very good team but they were awful defensively that first half.

    It's been said a thousand times before, but TAA's forward passing from the middle is incredible. Jota bang in form, which is nice and Salah learning to pass was nice to see.

    Can't really read too much into form in pre-season. Remember Liverpool battering City in the glorified friendly and Haaland looking shite.

    Was unaware this pre season friendly premier league thing was available to watch.

    Been watching the second half of villa Brentford… unsure how there was five goals in the first half.

    Went to see Feyenoord vs. Benfica earlier in Rotterdam. Mostly full strength teams and finished 2-1 to the Dutch. Seemed more likely Benfica would win it at first but they kept fannying around rather than scoring, only to get sucker-punched twice in the space of about 15 mins. They got a late one back but didn't seem too fussed overall.

    Was cool to see Mahow's BFF Di Maria in real life as well. Glad Utd didn't spend €70m on Ramos as he looked bobbins

    The coverage is something else. I'm listening to Poch give a tactical teamtalk during a drinks break. Bodycams on referees and players being trialled. God bless the US of A.

    The sooner referees are mic'd up the better. I know football's always been scared because it'll pick up player swearing but honestly, grow up - or just ban children from watching, the game is big enough without them.
