Just added Foo Fighters to the list for 2024. Going big for my 30th, apparently.

Mr. Chelsea

It'll be interesting to see who Chelsea eventually sign to fill in the midfield after all these departures (presuming Kovacic and Mount do also leave). Conor Gallagher could end up being the oldest CM at a ripe 23.

I don't think he uses a photoshopped image until the catchphrase can be included.

It's arguably worse this time around. The initial reactions from Norwich fans was "...who?", before the dodgy website and sexualised advertising was known about. Villa have gone into this knowing that stuff caused an uproar and that they can't wear it while playing in Europe.

The MCU is often at it's worst when it's solely being used as a vehicle to push something else. That's exactly why Shang-Chi and Moon Knight are my favourites from the latest round of things; they require no additional knowledge and only contain a couple of references to what's happened before.
It's clear that they don't really know where things are going, which is why the "phases" keep being juggled around and also why Phase Four is first one not to have an Avengers movie at or near its end. Basically, it's like a good number of shows that have a really enjoyable and tightly written Season 1, because that was the initial idea/pitch, but then they have to work out how to keep things going without getting stale, which often fails. That 70s Show and Heroes are my go to examples for this.
If you want a franchise that never got old (apart from being a little outdated 45+ years on...) the Carry On films are perfect!

So would any of us with the amount of work the poor bloke must've had to do in the last week!

I have no idea what the plan with Havertz is.
@Chelsea fans. Can he play as a left-sided eight? As a replacement for Xhaka.
I still think he’s being brought in as another option across the front-line, but could be wrong.
He isn't good enough to replace Jesus up front (maybe cover/domestic cups at best?) or play on the wings, so it's worth giving it a shot playing him further back.

@stokeriño HERE WE GOOOOOOO!
Koulibaly going is so good it got "here we go"-ed twice in one tweet.

"Arteta wants to sign an attacking player who doesn't score goals or provide assists, and would require the entire team's tactics/formation to change, in order for him to fit in."
Makes sense.

Very much so, but I'm sure it's no coincidence that Saudi teams seem to be trying to bring in as many major Muslim players as they can. There seem to be conflicting reports on Mendy's religion but all of the others from Chelsea, as well as Benzema, are most likely part of an attempt to increase the Islamic cultural relevance of the Saudi league.

Just got Bring Me tickets for Sheffield in January! I've also got Enter Shikari in London for my 30th a month later, 2024 is looking good for gigs so far... hopefully ADTR finally play Slam Dunk next year and I'm pretty much set!

Yes, but then my totally unbiased opinion is that I ❤️ Timo and always backed him even when he had no idea how to stay onside.
I still maintain that Werner was a perfectly cromulent left inside forward. Sure, he was brought in to play up top, but the offside issue was too significant to have him playing that far up the pitch. Too fast for his own good...

If Boehly were able to hold off until the next transfer window, that would be immense personal growth for him.
You must've seen the statement the club put out. He be tryin'!

Todd Boehly is already en route to Lisbon to sign him for £40m in January.

Spurs also spent most of the 00s with primarily red sponsors, so it doesn't look at all out of character to me. In fact, remove the Spurs logo from the 2010-13 kits and I'd have believe it if someone told me they were Leeds shirts.

Have to imagine he's off to a team that qualified for the Champions League too. Mount/Rice reunion at Man Utd maybe?

That's David Moyes' first trophy as a manager, assuming you don't count the Community Shield.
Didn't he win a lower division league with Preston at some point? This is before my time following football, as I can only remember as far back as him being Everton manager, so I'm not 100% sure.

Isn't it super how Chelsea entered this window in a quandary of having too many players and needing to trim the squad, and yet are imminently going to be in the position of having almost no central midfielders.
If the rumoured exits of Kante, Kovacic, RLC, Mount, etc. go ahead, then for the base of a probable 4-2-3-1 team we're left with Enzo and... Gallagher, maybe?
That's immediately 2 (preferably 3) more signings required, just to get the base level of 4 players covering those 2 positions.
I feel like rather than working towards a planned end state, our squad just keeps lurching from one extreme to another, with the board invariably backing themselves into make bad deals to get out of their latest self-inflicted crisis (nevermind how obvious this all makes it to other clubs how poor our leverage is in these transfer deals).
Who needs central players when we have a squad full of defenders and wingers? Chuck Gallagher up front and we don't even need to play Enzo!

Apparently Zaha is off to Al-Nassr too.
If Ronaldo, Benzema, and Kante aren't enough to make the Saudi league look appealing to viewers, I wonder how many eyeballs this one will pull in.

Happy to see this Ugarte bloke coming in for what seems like a reasonable price these days. It makes what likely looks like losing Kovacic and Mount to rivals for less than £100m (£120m if you include Jorginho going to Arsenal) combined seem less painful, and obviously eliminates the English premium that a player like Rice would command.
No interest in seeing Hazard back at the Bridge, he seems spent and glad he went out on a high with the Europa League win over Arsenal, as well as helping finance the post-transfer ban spending spree that helped create the unlikely Champions League win. I reckon he retires, returns to Lille, or sees out a season or two in the MLS.

@Brandon Cutler Fan Account I didn't have any issues, certainly smoother than getting Bring Me tickets was a few weeks ago! I do find it odd that the 2x tickets I've bought are consecutive numbers but two rows apart from each other, so we're like a knight chess piece away from each other if that helps visualise it.
