"The opening weeks of the season were dreadful. Castilla lost four of their first five matches and failed to produce a genuinely convincing performance across the first ten games. The excitement generated during pre-season quickly evaporated. Rachad suffered an injury almost immediately, and that poorly constructed roster was starting to show already. Arbeloa��s football was aesthetically pleasing, but at times alarmingly naïve. To his credit, he steadied the ship. As the season progressed, Castilla slowly began to resemble a functioning football side again. Joan Martínez, Víctor Valdepeñas and the rest of the defensive unit settled nicely, Fran González grew increasingly reliable in goal, and Jorge Cestero enjoyed a Chema Andres-like early season rise in midfield. But the biggest breakthrough came through César Palacios. After years disrupted by injury, Palacios became Castilla’s golden boy - the attacking leader capable of carrying the side through difficult moments. Around him, Arbeloa’s tactical ideas finally started to click. Castilla climbed the table, flirted with the play-off positions, and for the first time in years genuinely looked connected to the tactical identity of the first team. But it would be the first team that would disrupt everything overnight."

@KiyanSo and @elfayz_ also discuss how Mourinho will look at the Mbappe / Vini puzzle, and other transfers.

[Mehedi Hassan @MHassanFootball]

We now know you have at least 150m more in the bank for transfers this summer. Just move on and sign some players the team actually needs.

[Kiyan Sobhani @KiyanSo]

So...

- Thank Atletico for not accepting that bid
- Drove the price up for Barca
- Hopefully invest that money where the squad actually needs it
- Whole thing is kind of funny

Florentino promised a €150 million offer but I really thought it was going to be more serious than this one.

Really appears to me that he's doing Cerezo a favor in the Barça negotiations. This was never going to be accepted or even considered.

What is Beautiful Football?

When Mourinho won, he won a lot. Football’s self-appointed aesthetes have never forgiven him for it.

Buenos Dias.

We are a Jose Mourinho club again. The box office of all box offices.

Until 2030

“I would vote for Florentino”

🗣️: @kiyanso

[Lucas Navarrete @LucasNavarreteM]

Florentino winning the election with around 66% of the votes, according to a poll from MARCA. A slightly smaller advantage than I expected if confirmed.
