Early reports are that Alphonso Davies will play or at least be available on Sunday for Bayern meaning that his skull bruise/concussion was not that serious.

Hope we get more of these for the WC. Feels like they stopped making these long-form ad campaigns in soccer after 2010.

PSG's problems about to get much worse.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Also on a PSG note, their ownership bought a 20% stake in Sporting Braga and their fans aren't exactly thrilled about it.

Massive loss for Chelsea & France.

Not sure if Lille asked too much or his agent did but him not moving in the summer was pretty surprising. Leads Ligue 1 in scoring at the moment.

Klopp, always:

Wtf

Wtf

Too much woodwork?

Jota plays his best game maybe ever, just everywhere he needed to be, then goes and gets hurt in the 5th minute of extra time lmao

Combined with Neto out for months Portugal’s pre-WC injury list adding up just in time as usual.

Home field advantage

I don't know if I should be happy that Southampton defeated Bournemouth earlier today as it likely prolongs Ralph's stay on the south coast and I don't think that's the right decision. Of course, what the hell do I know

I just watched the highlights of Man United vs Spurs - Without Lloris, it could have been a 6-0 thrashing.

Alphonso had a pretty good game yesterday for Bayern...Those jerseys though are terrible.

Great goal. And I love the nutmeg to set up Musiala. His last game was pretty damn fine too. I think his new “do” agrees with him

Well, I think CR7 will be on a new team in January as this is not good...
