@Jkb_98 @SkySportsNews Smart signing

[HandofArsenal @HandofArsenal]

🚨 EXCL : Arsenal Football Club have personal terms agreed in principle with Vinicius Junior. Roc Nation will go armed into negotiations with Real Madrid with a monstrous offer from the English Champions…….over to you Vinicius Junior. Story W/ @MrArsenicTM

@UnitedStandMUFC @David_Ornstein Tidy player but he isn’t at the level United need

[Emmanuel Acho @EmmanuelAcho]

Jude Bellingham has the look, the swag, the intelligence, and the game.

He quite literally could become a face of the sports around the globe with a World Cup win. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC Great signing when you factor in age profile and fee paid. However, United lack legs in midfield which this signing won’t help with

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

You have to feel for Belgium, too many key players getting injured

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@talkSPORT Ahh yeah because Newcastle is such a luxurious place in comparison…

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨🔴⚪️ Arsenal prepare new official bid for Bruno Guimarães: Arteta wants him. 🇧🇷

£55m already rejected, second approach at £65m package rejected too — fee in between £65m and £90m could accelerate talks.

Bruno told Newcastle last week that he wants #AFC move but won’t create issues, leaving decision in club hands.

@FabrizioRomano Bruno and Rice midfield next season would be brutal for the rest of the league

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@SkySportsPL Intrigued to see if this happens! Newcastle will want a 100m and for a player turning 29 soon that wouldn’t be a smart purchase but time will tell

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC Wow! Dagger to the heart for Newcastle fans

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC Low key a good signing for them, may come back to bite Chelsea that!

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@FabrizioRomano @gunnerblog An okay signing for them really. With all due respect to him, the less he plays the better

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@footballontnt Well and truly on the path of being an icon of English football

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@FabrizioRomano Legend being born right in front of us. Up the Jude

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@BBCMOTD Talks off the pitch as well as his output on the pitch. The face of the England national team

[Match of the Day @BBCMOTD]

“It’s a whole country’s performance.”

Jude Bellingham reflects on his goals and shows his appreciation for the England fans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

@FabrizioRomano A rare kind of talent that can carry their side to a World Cup. Appreciate his greatness

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

All timer performance from Bellingham that. Having just turned 23, the legacy he could leave behind is frightening

[FieldNotes @FieldNotesSport]

The game tonight will be a battle, England need to score early and assert their dominance as the far superior team talent wise.

You’d have to say Mexico will have the physical advantage and endurance. Tuchel’s use of substitutions is vital.
