Goodbye Pulisic. He's pretty much got to shove his way out the door now.Raheem Sterling to Chelsea for £47.5 million. He’s already agreed to a 5 year contract.
That’s Arsenal-level asset management right there.Goodness, I had basically forgotten about the existence of Pogba at this point. The amount United paid to get him and for him to end up leaving on a free is really something.
Yes he did, but the circumstances were probably different. He really only spent 1 season with the senior team after 2 seasons with the youth teams and made 7 appearances, 3 in the league, 3 in the League Cup and 1 in the Europa League. And he had just turned 19.Didn't Pogba end up leaving Man United on a free the first time he left them as well? What I recall was Sir Alex basically calling him every Scottish insult known to man because he jerked them around until his contract ran out and he bailed for Juve. And now the exact same thing has happened. It's like they didn't learn a single thing in the meantime ... because they obviously didn't.
Sure. Either way, they keep paying somebody for him to show up and then letting Juve get him for free. Maybe stop doing that.Yes he did, but the circumstances were probably different.

Steffen’s loan move to Boro is complete.Steffen had basically a lost year last season with the injuries and lack of use really cutting into his value to club and country. So, yeah ... Boro is fine, I guess. I was hoping he'd get a better loan than a Championship gig, but honestly the Championship is probably on par overall with 90% of the Euro leagues. It's no worse than a loan to a French side who play against 3-4 quality opponents and a bunch of dreck. At Boro he'll get a steady stream of competent opposition even if he'll be missing the high end action.
Turner ... yeah. He's also a bit beat up at the moment, so shifting to training mode for a bit won't be bad for him in the short run. So long as he gets some live action between now and Qatar it should be fine for the US.
Here's hoping he can get that back healthy and find some sort of consistency again.Steffen’s loan move to Boro is complete.
He can also play on the wing ... versatile depth piece.Arsenal have agreed personal teams with left back Oleksandr Zinchenko from Man City. A transfer fee had already been agreed on, believed to be £30 million with £2 million in add-ons. Zinchenko can also play midfield and is usually deployed there for the Ukrainian National Team.
