🚨🇭🇺 Dominik Szoboszlai has agreed to sign new FIVE year deal at Liverpool, valid until June 2031!
Verbal agreement in place with final details being sorted ahead of signature and official statement.
Szoboszlai stays, fully committed to #LFC new project under Andoni Iraola 🔴🔐
@BenBocsak What do you think of Norway’s Patrick Berg (Bodø Glimt). Could be a smart signing and a lot of value for money. Aggressiv, fit, great both ways, good on the ball and a fine football brain. Also seems like a great guy.
Lille Norge kan ikke gjøre noe med FIFA.
Lille Norge kan derimot starte jordskjelvet som fører til at VAR blir avskaffet i mange land. Fjerner Norge VAR, er jeg sikker på at flere vil følge etter.
Det jordskjelvet bør starte nå, og med full styrke.
Gianni Infantino has further diminished the reputation of an organisation that had already become a byword for sleaze under his predecessor Sepp Blatter. He should resign.

Sources saying trump made another call to infantino. After that call an exclusive, independent commity was formed, and has decided Balogun is not knocked out of the World Cup. That would not be fair. He will now play for France for the rest of the tournament.
Whether it is or isn’t a red to Balogun is now irrelevant. Government interference is a violation of FIFA Article 2 & 15, and the punishment is disqualification and suspension. #FIFAWorldCup
🚨 José Mourinho on the overturned red card for Folarin Balogun:
“Why? Because they’re the hosts? What is this nonsense? In football, these decisions must be the same for everyone. If the red card is a red card, it stays a red card.
People don’t like to admit it, but sometimes where you come from changes how you’re treated. Tell me honestly—does that decision get overturned if the player represents Ghana or Paraguay? I don’t think so. The rules should be the same for every nation.”
Just to be clear, then. FIFA:
1) can't possibly intervene when Iran are forced to move, a referee is denied a visa, or fans are barred from the USA
2) can absolutely intervene when a decision goes against the USA that Donald Trump doesn't like
Smashing. All know where we stand
🚨⚠️ Belgium coach Rudi Garcia: “I didn’t know that at the World Cup as at FIFA the 5th of July is actually the first of April. It’s April Fools”.
“We’re not defending the national team or federation, we are defending football and integrity”.
🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: The Royal Belgian Football Association has released a statement in regard to Folarin Balogun being able to play against them.
"The Royal Belgian Football Association (RBFA) is astonished by FIFA's decision to declare suspended United States player Folarin Balogun eligible to play in the USA–Belgium match on Monday, 6 July at 5:00 p.m. (Seattle time)."
"FIFA bases its decision on Article 27 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code. This provision states that the FIFA Disciplinary Committee may decide to suspend the enforcement of a previously imposed disciplinary sanction."
"However, Article 66.4 of the same FIFA Disciplinary Code clearly provides that a red card (sending-off) automatically results in a suspension for the team's next match, as has been the case for all previous red cards issued during this FIFA World Cup."
"Furthermore, and irrespective of the above, the decision is in direct contradiction with the provisions of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Competition Regulations, as set out in Article 10.5:
"If a player or team official is sent off as a result of a direct or indirect red card (second caution), they will automatically be suspended from their team's subsequent match. In addition, further sanctions may be imposed."
"The automatic nature of such a suspension was also explicitly reaffirmed in FIFA World Cup 2026 Circular No. 16, which was distributed to all participating member associations on 12 May 2026."
"The same rule is reiterated at every FIFA World Cup 2026 Match Coordination Meeting prior to each match and is included in all FIFA World Cup 2026 workshop presentations.
"In order to safeguard the legitimate rights of all participating teams and to protect the fundamental principles of fair play in our sport, both at this FIFA World Cup and at future editions of the tournament, the RBFA is investigating all potential options."
Man City are signing Elliot Anderson for a British record £130m.
Seems like those 115 alleged charges for breaking Financial Fair play rules are really serving as a deterrent.
Isn't it amazing when you play Gravenberch in his natural role, the 8, he actually looks like a very good player✅
De Jong in the 6 with Gravenberch in 8 is a big reason the Netherlands will go far🇳🇱
End the experiment of Gravenberch as a 6 at LFC & please please can we finally get Fabinho replacement thir Summer🙌
Good lad. If I’m a player not at the World Cup I’d be putting in Salah shifts at the AXA gym to make sure I’m the fittest person in Iraola’s first training session.
Some important lessons that Andoni Iraola can learn from how things went wrong for Arne Slot at Liverpool.
🛑 Style and identity matters
🛑 Create a bond with fanbase with what you say and how you act
🛑 Be ruthless when addressing glaring weaknesses
