Non story. Real will pay his fine.

How about Liverpool messing up the move for the Southampton center back?

Big player moves I might believe:

Mbappe to Real
Sanchez to Bayern
Bale to Madrid
Walker to City
Veratti to Barca
Salah to Liverpool

Not really a summer transfer but Frank De Boer named Palace boss on a 3 year deal. No idea how this will pan out so i guess we just hold tight and see how it goes.

Looks like Jose got his guy in Lukaku. I put Man United in the pole position for the PL next season.

Nah..

Lukaku might score as much as Ibra, but doubt it. And they weren't winning the league with him. Chelsea still very clear favorites.

You know me man a true plastic Chelsea man. But I don't know with Text-gate going down and them not finding anything in the way of a striker or extra LWB is leaving me worried.

Saw a rumor tonight that Chelsea may be going after Sergio Aguero.

Worries for sure. But Chelsea won the title by double digit points. While I don't see their point total reaching those heights again, they're still the prohibitive favorites. Jose and Pep are showing their true managerial talent... buy expensive players. Lukaku is a good signing. But he loves to score when the games already gone. Ibra carried United for a time with massive goals. I just don't see Lukaku living up to that. Lacazette will be a better player.

Could be wrong (not the first time). Hope not.

Truth? Sure.

I can't see Neymar leaving Barca for PSG however.

Man, this whole Neymar/PSG Will-he-won't-he saga is the pure, distilled essence of Silly Season.

Alvaro Morata to Chelsea and all is right in the world. Chelsea will switch to a full on 352 and win the double.
