If McTominays gone, perhaps Manchester United might consider signing this other fellow!

Looking forward to Hoijlund scoring 40 goals and leading Dortmund to the Bundie on loan next year

Gonna be a long summer

He played shit cause he’s got no fans and he’s a load of wankers. If you want some, I’ll give it ya

The National League/TFL/Wembley - absolute fucking clowns

90k stadium but capacity limited to 35k, which means thousands of Oldham and Southend fans likely not to be able to go. Fucking joke

Liverpool dropping £240m on Frimpong, Kerkez and Wirtz before the season’s even ended is pretty extraordinary business.
