So Paul Pogba should be back on the pitch in March 2025.

Most probably in MLS as I do think he as burned it all in Europe. Great quality player but a troublemaker on every team he has been.

If Insigne gets 8 millions in Toronto Pogba should get even higher. But Insigne is totally overpaid. I think Pogba will settle around 4 million. Could it be Montreal? Nah owner Saputo will not tolerate him. I would say one of the 2 New York team will sign him. Especially NYFC as they will lose Max Martinez.

Wonder why Scotsmen in Italy are rarely a bust?


Doesn't look good on ManDisU, players they discarded are Players of the Week.

He's not old, 31. he's got a few years ahead of him. I agree Insigne is no longer great like when he played with Napoli, thats why they got rid of him.

Azzurri sucked in the nations cup against Belgium. The first period Belgium couldn't touch the ball and Italy scored twice, (in the first minute) then Pellegrini got red cared towards the end of the first period, after that Italy fell apart, Belgium scored twice. What the hell was that?

According to reports, Real Madrid have reached an agreement with Alphonso Davies over a move to Santiago Bernabeu next summer. Apparently, he has accepted a deal until 2030, with an option to extend the contract for one more year. This implies the star has signed a five-year contract for Real Madrid and is expected to join the club on a free transfer. However, nothing is likely to be made official just now. Davies, after all, will only be able to sign a pre-contract agreement when the January transfer window opens up.

Once the Davies deal is completed, Real Madrid can also shift their focus to another defensive target in Trent Alexander-Arnold. The Englishman is being targeted as a replacement for Dani Carvajal and may also join the club on a free transfer next summer.

How Real Madrid is able to pull in these extraordinary talents is a testament to great management and the aura the team has created over the decades. Incredible.

The Leagues, knockout competitions, Champions League (Europa), Continental (Europe Qualifiers, Europe Tournament), World Cup Qualifiers, World Cup Tournament, now garbage Nations League, garbage Club World Cup, friendlies.

Just an example from Real Madrid: Dani Carvajal, Rodri, Mbappe all out injured. WTF!

Garbage tournament. garbage announcers.

I had no idea what they were talking about, hatred for Italy is strong. At least the players were safe, The Carabinieri do not miss head shots.

Nations is still a good way to watch soccer, better than nothing. Israel is a nobody team, lets see the Azzurri play against Spain.

Don't envy him the task, he's going to need a very thick skin to deal with the rabid English Press.

BC Portugesh Guy may not have the one-liners of Irish Guy but his research is perfect. He's right about Buongiorno, he gives The Azzurri flexible options on defense.

Antonio Conte is consistent, he may change his tactics but never his decisions. He wanted Lukaku as his point, regardless of what happened in the transfer market, Osimhen was gone. Hopefully Lovely Nieve returns soon.

Juventus aren't scoring many goals, they don't have to, their defense is suffocating. Is Michele Di Gregorio the new Ollie Kahn.

Vini Jr. is better than Mbappe. And its not even close. What I (and many others) hate about him are the antics. Like, what was the point in removing his jersey. Childish

de Jong was injured earlier and seems to have trouble coming back to match form. The Dutch national team manager expressed concerns as well. A fit de Jong is of great value to any top team. I trust he will bounce back.
