Am I the only one who cannot stand Mbappé? He's obviously a great player, and I do not wish injury upon anyone, but I could never cheer for this guy. I hope he never wins the Champions League, and I hope he never wins another title with the French team either.
Maybe not if you already would have that much in the bag with knowingly way more to come while not having to live in Saudi Arabia.
You basically live in a golden cage for less than a year. It's all insane, but that's one thing I wouldn't blame him for.
Manchester United finalize $92m Rasmus Höjlund deal - sources It feels like a lot for a guy that hasn't yet played 100 senior games but it's still less than what Atalanta wanted. I like the United are finally not grossly overpaying and just accepting the well known United Tax that's been going on in Europe forever. I hope this kid is ready, though. A LOT of eyes are going to be on him. It sounds like they're going to keep Martial around as the insurance policy...which seems weird since he can rarely actually play. I'd guess, if healthy, he gets to start the first couple of games until Hojlund is comfortable. Sounding like Amrabat could be next to fill out the midfield, especially if they can get Fred, McTominay, and Maguire moved. I'd expect Ten Hag to bring in another center back if Maguire does move as he likes to have 4.
We'll have a lot of fun with De Ligt and Kim, Krätzig has also been a nice discovery. In general has been a promising preseason, Davies is regaining his form and Gnabry, Tel, Sane, Musiala created a lot of chances.
Sounding more and more like McKennie is back in the plans at Juve. With Musah joining Pulisic at AC Milan, I'll be paying a lot more attention to Serie A than I had in the past.
