Hull promoted to the Premier League
Promotion triggers bonuses to the players who fought to do it. It then sees them breach PSR by £6m so have to sell players by 30 June or face a points deduction
Chelsea given a fine for purchasing players linked to £47m in hidden payments
I wish they would stop calling these halts 'hydration breaks' and just be honest and call them 'ad breaks'. No need for a hydration break in an air-conditioned stadium with a roof on.
Embarrassingly weak from Roberto Martinez. He should have hooked Ronaldo off but he’s too scared of upsetting him. Ronaldo is essentially the manager of Portugal.
Well played DR Congo… deserved the point👏👏
England supporters across the world, your erudite thoughts on that first half please.
Who's hot, who's not, what needs to change.
Thank you in advance...

Archer and Phillips having a sensational battle at one end while Bethell just helps himself to 4-1-7-2 lobbing absolute pies at the other is elite sport.
I know it’s very early signs but I think this game already shows the flaws with extending the tournament to 48 teams.
The gulf in quality here is huge. We’re just gonna have to watch Haiti, Cape Verde and Jordan get walloped 7-0 on repeat. 32 teams was perfect.
Last week we were told that 2 violent muslim thugs that started a fight in Manchester Airport and then violently assaulted 3 police officers who tried to arrest them, would practically walk away scott free.
Today, the same day Sir Rodney says there is no such thing as Two Tier policing, a white British man is spent straight to prison for "pushing a bin at a police officer"
MY 2027 IRAOLA WORLD
So everything is based on the last 4-2-3-1 Bournemouth team which is very reliant on both the Midfield Pivot both having big engines on them ie Scott and Adams.
Exits
Forwards
Chiesa -15m
Salah - Free
Gakpo- 60m (but thats an Iraola call)
Midfield
Endo (wants game time and not the engine needed) 15m
Curtis (wants to leave, id keep but still wants to go) 30M
Macca ( Just don't see his profile fitting) 60m
Defence
Konate
Robertson
Gomez 10m
Greek 10m
That is possibly 200m Outgoings depending what you do with Gako
NEW SQUAD
Defence
Kerkez
Diouf (30m from WHU)
VDV
Jacquet
Leoni
Hecke (Brighton 40m)
Frimpong
Dumfries 20m or Palestra 40m or Read 40m
Midfield
Grav
Dominik
Nyoni
Wirtz
Elliot
Camara or Sangare 40m
Scott or Baleba 50m
Forwards
Isak
Ekitike (unavailable)
Rio
Barcola 70m (can cover all 3 positions ie Gakpo replace)
Diomande 85m
Summerville 40m
Abe
Frimpong, Elliot and Szobo to play front 3 if required.
Total Cost 395m
Total Net cost 195m
If the club want to spend that much is another story entirely but that is what is needed so you may need to do some quantity over quality or do the rebuild over 2 seasons etc
Min requirement is two forwards, CM and RB
So your thoughts and squad for next season.

i cant believe that the pundits aren’t slating arteta, 22% possession and 1 shot on target is diabolical 😂 u cant blame the players for missing the penalties when the manager never even went for the game 😭😭
Mo Salah having his contract mutually terminated despite having a year left...
Trent Alexander-Arnold being sold for just £8.5m, after running down his contract...
Ibrahima Konate leaving for free...
Andy Robertson leaving for free...
They would join Wijnaldum, Firmino, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Milner and Keita, as player to have left for free since 2021.
Liverpool used to be so, so smart. But that feels like they've missed out on at least £130m across Salah, Konate, Robertson and Trent since the start of last summer.
In an ideal world
Gordon goes Barca, which means they can’t afford Alvarez
So Julian Alvarez heads to PSG with Akliouche
That means PSG have all the attackers they need, and are willing to let go of Barcola
Liverpool pick up both Diomande and Barcola
Gakpo goes to Bayern
