    Sanches apparently close to leaving Bayern( not sure whether on loan), wasn't on yesterday's roster and Salihamidzic confirmed that it was in order to give Sanches time for negotiations.

    Arsenal is making Liverpool look like Real Madrid out there. Something is wrong with that team and it isn't the talent.

    I will keep track of the box score of both games LIV - ARS and Spurs - Burnley

    Sanchez is back after long time and Koscielny after a nagging injury.

    Lacazette and Giroud on the bench. Mane and LFC seems to be in top shape. At least at home.

    Liverpool has been really impressive these past few feeks, think they can win the league. Superb attacking and Klopp's counter pressing works well with that roster.

    We'll see. I didn't like what I saw when they were pressured, but they weren't pressured much this game. I do like the Sengalize dude though. He can play.

    I think the Spurs will come back when Kane finds his touch.....

    Man U, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs, Man City

    Arsenal obviously will have to improve and the season is young.

    Was one of the people laughing at the transfer sum, but he seems worth it.

    L'Equipe saying Mbappe to PSG a done deal, one year loan and afterwards PSG with a 180mil buying option.

    Pretty disgusting if this happens, Monaco actively helping PSG out and undermining FFP. This whole system is a farce.

    UEFA boss Ceferin said he intends to tighten the FFP rules or even install a salary cap. Now he can show that he's not just another bribable puppet like Platini.

    Other news: Yarmolenko doing a medical at BVB, great transfer if true.

    Klopp Liverpool being Klopp Gegenpress Liverpool . Salah, what a great buy. Mane's goal reminds me of Bale's goal during his Spurs days . Firmino is so sublime, ideal false 9...works so hard, great passing utilizing speedster on both sides. Emre Can , one of his best game of the year . Even Gomez was good enough

    Gomez was undervalued, he played as good of a game as anyone.

    Yarmolenko to Dortmund now official.
    Jersey #9, this pretty much confirms that Emre Mor will leave.

    Images of Jovetic's presentation for Monaco have leaked, he's wearing #10, which is Mbappe's current number. Guess this confirms Mbappe to PSG.

    There is only One Ball with PSG.... Neymar has it and sporadically Cavani when scoring goals. Others are supporting actors.

    If he wants to be the man......

    Liverpool apparently triggering Keita (RB Leizipg) buyout clause for next season, has already done a medical check this morning. Means he'll stay in Leipzig this season and then join Liverpool next July for roughly 50mil.
