@lauriewhitwell Securing a 40% sell-on clause back in 2024 and casually collecting a clean €12m windfall while having zero involvement with the player anymore is absolute business heritage from INEOS. The transfer treasury is eating incredibly well today.
@OneFootball The absolute master of avoiding the 'favorites' curse. France could have a squad of 25 prime Galácticos and Deschamps would still claim their opponents are clear favorites.
@David_Ornstein@TheAthleticFC Thomas Meunier playing at the Stadium of Light was definitely not on my 2026 summer transfer window bingo card. Football is completely unscripted.
@goal Getting subbed off at halftime is bad, but getting told by Zlatan Ibrahimovic that a piece of broadcasting equipment played better than you is emotional damage.
