Neymar: $200M for 7 games & 1 goal for Al Hilal. Heist of the century?

30 years ago today - I give you the King, Eric Cantona 🫣

What a second half from PSG tonight 👏

A little piece I wrote.

Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury not fighting in the last 5/6 years at Wembley stadium will forever go down as a crime against sports fans.

So good i had to write about it. Lewis x Ferrari 🔥 open.substack.com/pub/cultureo...

Lewis x Ferrari is a vibe

I’m still trying to wrap my head around that Haaland deal. City must know something about those charges that we don’t!

Amad Diallo is every managers dream. Beyond talent - his passion for the club, work rate, positive energy, never say die attitude, infectious aura that impacts his team mates, his connection to the fans. Paying back his employers after signing a new deal with a game saving hatrick is incredible.

A little piece I wrote about Pogba as he approaches his return. open.substack.com/pub/original...

If Ugarte is going to be punished then surely Havertz should be too.

I couldn't imagine Elon Musk owning Liverpool FC. Such a storied and historic club deserves stable ownership.

Football fans might find this interesting.

Now that was a fun game of football ⚽️

TAA is about to get a call 😂

Ex-footballer Reece Wabara is building a fashion empire.

Wishing you all a happy and safe New Year 🍾

What are you doing this window if you were Nottingham Forest manager? 2nd place, playing well, what reinforcements can help them sustain this all season?

Good morning ☀️

3 more days and the January window opens. Share your predictions 👇

And it continues 👇

Alex Iwobi opened his own temporary shop in East London and has been giving out free food to local residents struggling to pay for their Christmas dinner. Good man 👏

Amorim has the aura of a success leader. I think he’ll be able to do what others have not, given the tools and time required.

Who do you think is the best fit to plug the gap left by Rodri this window?

Fulham being 2 points behind City after 17 games would have been a wild bet at the start of the season 🤑

It’ll take some adjusting to see Rashford wearing a different badge.

Those half time odds for a UTD win must have been pretty good.

Fulham's last 4 games 👏 2-2 Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal 3-1 Brighton (W) 1-1 Tottenham

Manchester United will pay $4m + $1m in add-ons to sign the 17 year old Paraguayan left back Diego León.

It'll be interesting to see where Fulham finish this year, they've definitely levelled up. They've had some strong performances this season, and play decent football too.

So Dan Ashworth has gone. He spent more time on gardening leave than he did working at the club. What is going on at UTD 🤨

What’s the scoop on the 2025 release? Anybody?

Jose Mourinho: “Cristiano Ronaldo will not come to Fenerbahce. I’ve three good strikers and I don’t need another one. Cristiano will always be Cristiano, but I don’t want him because I'm satisfied with my strikers.”

Onana had a shocker tonight 😱

All valid points. I would go a step further and say that MLS reports tickets sold metrics, not fans entering gates. As an Atlanta United supporter I cringe when I see us celebrate a visibly not full stadium with 44k fans in attendance.

Great article by @mrdavidskilling.bsky.social

Man Utd are just 7 points from the champions league places. Make it make sense 😂

How about those Arsenal corners 👀

Man Utd's chase for Viktor Gyökeres won't be easy—Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Man City, and Bayern are all in the mix.⚽

Goal in the first minute for UTD. ETH just threw his pint across the room 🤣

Genius in its simplicity! Let this be a lesson to anybody or any business trying to get a marketing edge.

Amorim has spoken this week, what do you think about what he's had to say?

What football team do you support?
