🚨 #Inter's plan has NOT changed: both Marko Arnautović and Joaquín Correa will LEAVE the club at the end of their contracts THIS SUMMER. 🇦🇹🇦🇷👋

totally bizarre. not good enough for our first team but good enough for a side who will likely be fighting for the title? someone somewhere has misjudged his ability dreadfully

West Ham have made a loan enquiry for versatile Arsenal defender Jaden Dixon. #AFC #WHUFC

‘no wonder we can’t string passes together’

‘did the stoke team turn up today?’

nice idea, but this kit is going to be on the end of more jokes than it’s worth

he obviously knows more about tactics, mentality etc.. but to basically say we were doomed to lose despite being 1-0 up with five minutes to go because of our ‘DNA’ is an insane lack of accountability

when Sepp Blatter is taking the morale high ground, you know you’re in the wrong

[Joseph S Blatter @SeppBlatter]

Red cards are not overturned by political phone calls. They are overturned by rules, evidence and independent bodies. If a U.S. President intervenes with the FIFA President — and a player is suddenly cleared before a World Cup knockout match — the question is unavoidable: Quo vadis, FIFA?

Football must never become a playground for political power. #FIFA #WorldCup #GianniInfantino #DonaldTrump

One of the greatest games of football I’ve ever watched.

Cape Verde, you are incredible.

Nestory Irankunda was born in a refugee camp in Tanzania after his Burundian parents fled civil war.

His friend Mohamed Toure had a similar start to life, born in a refugee camp in Guinea after his parents escaped conflict in Liberia.

Both players, and others within the Australia squad, ended up moving to the country as their families searched for a better life.

“The Socceroos aren’t just a team," midfielder Jackson Irvine said recently. "We are a reflection of modern Australia.”

obviously good news, but for a fully-fledged international, 22, with obvious Premier League potential, only under contract until 2028 stinks a bit. Say he has another good 12 months, we’re not exactly in a strong position to demand a sizeable fee

[Stoke City FC @stokecity]

More to come ⏳

[james @jameskp31_]

so to get this straight, we sold one of our most promising talents in Jaden Dixon to a club that hates us because one of our coaches didn’t like him, only for said coach to leave shortly after as well, citing the fact he didn’t like the way we won at Hull or Norwich? stinks

boy Dave, do I have a challenge for you!

[Stockport County @StockportCounty]

A remarkable record for Dave Challinor continues 🤩

In 15 full seasons as a manager, the gaffer has never finished below a play-off place 🤯

@PitterPotter619 the lack of foresight is alarming. Tchamadeu this season too, when AFCON was an obvious concern, no backup. Maxi, Lawal, Sorba, and Agina have all played there in his absence. injuries more often than not are out of your hands, but the lack of plan B is truly worrying

[james @jameskp31_]

we probably would’ve earned a few more points with Vik, yeah, but:

- heading into the season with one backup
- sell said backup in January
- recall a young keeper who struggled in League One
- loaning statistically the Championship’s worst keeper

all because of one injury…😬

[Pete Smith @PeteSmith1983]

Post-match reaction from Mark Robins.
"I would suggest, even after today, if you have Viktor for the whole season - just one player - you'd end up with 10 more points."
