Arsenal made attempt this morning to sign Cristian Romero from Tottenham.
Spurs officials laughed so hard one of them nearly fainted.

Just might be my favourite footballer ever. They call it the beautiful game because of players like him

A selection of Liverpool players visit the United Center where they took on some skills challenges at the home of the Chicago Bulls, after Florian Wirtz, Alexander Isak and more all took part in another intense training session in the US. 🔴

When Graeme Souness tried to send Don Hutchison to Southampton in 1993, the deal would have brought Tim Flowers to Liverpool in return.

Hutchison had no intention of going.

Southampton were regularly near the bottom of the league, and he believed they were going to be relegated.

So he refused the move and stayed at Liverpool.

Souness was not pleased.

At training, he arranged a six-a-side game and made sure he was on one team and Hutchison was on the other.

Hutchison knew why.

“He was going to crunch me.”

The game started and eventually the ball rolled between the two of them.

Souness went for it with both feet.

Hutchison saw him coming and decided he was not going to pull out.

“He has come in two-footed and I know he is going to do me.”

“So I have gone higher and two-footed him.”

They collided and both ended up on the ground.

Souness started punching Hutchison in the ribs.

Hutchison realised he was now fighting the Liverpool manager, but by that point he was already hitting him back.

“I’m like, ‘It’s the gaffer.’”

“I am punching him back and we are rolling and rolling.”

The two of them carried on across the training pitch, trading punches while the rest of the players watched.

Souness’s hair was everywhere.

Hutchison was still furious.

Jamie Redknapp and Steve McManaman looked at what was happening and reached the same conclusion.

“He’s finished.”

Eventually, Souness got back to his feet.

Hutchison was waiting to find out what the punishment would be after two-footing his manager and fighting him in the middle of training.

Instead, Souness turned to the other players.

“See, that’s what we need.”

“A bit of b******s.”

“He’ll be in the team on the weekend.”

Hutchison played on the Saturday.

Liverpool would need to spend £600m this summer just to catch up to Manchester United’s net spend since Coutinho left.

Save the spending lectures.

@Mobyhaque1 Loving all these youth signings. Eichhorn would be a huge coup if we pull it off.

@HendrickD82 They’re shattered at the end too, good to see

The end of an incredible journey with the Reds 👏❤️

Ibrahima Konate on Liverpool struggles:

“We can say many things because we were champions last season. People are going to talk about, okay, we bring in new players. Many things happened for us this season. But what people as well have to understand, and this is my point, like before we won the league last season, we just built a team to win the PL at one moment and this is part of the success. This is the way to success.

And now we bring in new players, of course they will not perform straight from the first game. This is what I’ve said to many, I said we just have to be relaxed because this is part of the success. We bring new players, we will adapt, we will try to understand each other and at a point, with time, we will win a trophy. We will have success and when we win the Premier League or Champions League, people will forget every bad season we had because now we won the league last season.

Two years before we played Europa League, but people don’t talk about this any more. This is just part of the success and we have to be relaxed because we have amazing fans, we have to stay together, and the success will come for sure. Maybe this season, or maybe in the future…”

They’re gonna be talking about Arteta matching Klopp’s legacy when Klopp’s sides who came second would slap their batty cheeks. It’s a cruel world
