Funnily enough, they still lack a top goalkeeper.

Chelsea are really starting to field a tasty squad though.

Ornstein reporting that Romeo Lavia has decided to join Chelsea over Liverpool. You have to laugh at this point.

Kylian Mbappé is expected to sign a new contract at PSG until 2025.

Top signing, especially with Mac Allister already on the books.

Ornie on it too

I think I read that Kane’s Mrs is giving birth within a few weeks. Maybe that could be a factor in him having reservations?

If Harry Kane chose to stay, it’s honestly a baffling decision. He should be playing for the top trophies and he isn’t going to do that at Spurs. Although if he did leave and Bayern ended up not winning the Bundesliga it would be the funniest thing.

Edu played a blinder.

Don’t know why - but James Ward-Prowse feels like the most West Ham signing ever.

Brighton 4-0 Luton (Sat 3pm)Everton 0-2 Fulham (Sat 3pm)Newcastle 3-3 Aston Villa (Sat 5.30pm, Sky)Brentford 2-2 Tottenham (Sun 2pm, Sky)Chelsea 3-1 Liverpool (Sun 4.30pm, Sky)

This is a huge coup for Brighton.

Count me in

I’m about half-way through season four of True Blood and am a bit annoyed with myself that I seem to enjoy it so much. The whole thing is ridiculous really but I am a big fan of how self-aware the show is. For example, Jason’s whole character and arc is over-the-top nonsense for the most part but it’s clearly meant to be that way. I also loved Sooki (?) mocking the way Bill says her name in a scene at one point - adding to said self-awareness. Eric Northman is great too.

Football is on the tele.

Pep continuing his plan to play all the centre-backs.

Sounds like Raya has pretty much agreed terms with Arsenal. Really strange signing - especially if he is going to cost us £40m.

I started this a few weeks ago after watching the Fox documentary. I have found myself constantly watching what he does with his left arm though and it’s now so obvious in hindsight that he’s trying his best to hide his condition. So sad really. Top show though.

This is weird to me. I know Arteta can be ruthless but this is still a wild rumour. Can’t have two £30m (plus) goalkeepers in the same squad, surely?

Was about to post this - it’s so obvious that they’ve greyed out the rainbow armband. Fuck that regime and fuck Henderson. Empty, empty words.

Brighton have shipped Jeremy Sarmiento out to West Brom on loan for the season. Surprising one as I thought he would get a little more game-time this season with European football.

Because red shorts would look dumb.
