Leverkusen was very very impressive in the first half I watched, but Olmo scoring from out of nowhere reminded me that this is Loserkusen and there will always be a glitch in the matrix for them. Sad, but true.

Honestly, didn't expect this beatdown at all. I expected two shit teams, but this Bremen is even worse than I thought.

I believe he is injured, at least I read something like even as injured he was extremely proud and happy for the trophy and celebrated like this is the real Champions League. Not the first time for him to pick up an injury during a final match, a strange habit tho 😄

Bellingham's goal reminded me a bit of the Brazilian Ronaldo's first goal in Real (also in his first match as far as I remember). Real plays in a different system now with him, quite unorthodox from the club. Also, couldn't replace Benzema, Courtois, and Militao injured, this is the last season of Ancelotti - gonna be weird. Szoboszlai wasn't bad in his first match, had a great solo and a big chance in the first half when Jota arrived and made the shot instead of him. Klopp was certainly satisfied. (edit: with Dom and not Jota :)) Not much news about him even in Hungarian media. but Kerkez Milos also made his debut in the Premier League and Bournemouth and was the man of the match. Keep an eye on him, very good in defense and attack as well on the left side, I will surely get him in fantasy a couple of times. Played in youth Milan too, and came from Alkmaar - big talent.

The thread we have been waiting for! 😎 Neymar going to SA at the age of 31 would be a significant move. European Super League is undoubtedly coming, consisting of Juve, Inter, Milan, Real, Barca, Atleti, PSG, Bayern, most PL, and the Saudi/Qatar clubs...

Where is @psrquack, still on his way back from Chicago? https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/duck-derby-takes-over-chicago-river-for-a-good-cause/ar-AA1f6Vis

Saudi League is broadcasted on a sports channel in Hungary! Not surprised in Orbany, but I have to say I might watch a couple of matches, at least I don't have to look for streams anymore (or watch on the small screen of betting sites). The rosters are getting very strong there.

Kloppo 😄 What to do, eh? https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1689930344676335616

Klopp lost his mind? He has great players for every position except the defense... And that much money for Caicedo? But hey, if Pool wanna play like a few years ago, with the motto of "the most important to score more goals", then I'm in for the goal fests! 🥳

Atalanta has regressed a lot in the past two seasons. Used to reach Coppa Italia finals, PO rounds of CL (almost beat PSG - I believe - in the covid season), and finished third three times in a row in Italy scoring nearly 100 (!) goals once. Last two seasons: quarterfinals in the cup, failure in the group stage in the CL (and no Europe last year), finished 8th (!) and (basically) 6th in the league scoring only 65 and 66 goals. Dominating... in possession? Maybe, I'm not sure, but based on the pure number of shots Atalanta finished in distant 6th too. That's very bad, especially in Serie A with Mourinho, Sarri, and Allegri. However, I meant by "good, dominating team" the likes of Malmo, Salzburg, Dortmund, and City, so the very top of their leagues. Sturm Graz and Atalanta are far from that. When Haaland was at the same age, he just started his first full season at Dortmund. Not much ahead of Hojlund to be fair. His numbers are not that great for sure, but maybe all he needs is a good team. In his first season in a top league, accompanied by many experienced strikers he wasn't a clear starter, he wasn't a penalty taker, and still had 9 goals in a quite defensive league - not too shabby. Obviously, ManU paid much more than Hojlund is worth, but this is what happens when rules are bent by other teams and countries... All in all, he is better in some aspects of the game than Haaland, he has the potential, but could be the next Felix or Sterling. Personally, I believe he would have a better future at Spurs under Postecoglou, especially now that Kane is about to leave. On my watchlist, anyway.

Hojlund as Lidl-Haaland, is a good one, but may be valid only for now. Yeah, a similar Scandinavian monster striker with power and speed, but I have seen him many times in Atalanta, the guy has potential, has a better technique, is more intelligent, and uses both feet and head to score much more than Haaland. He has fewer shots and is quite raw, but he is only 20 and didn't play in a good, dominating team yet. Unfortunately, Manchester United is not a good team either. 😂 In fact, it's like a black hole and carriers' cemetery since SAF left.

Unibet came up with its league too, but I guess not for everyone, I get an error page when I sign in to the Hungarian version. Anyway, have a try guys: www.unibet.com/promotions/sportsbook-promotions/unibet-fantasy-league

I'm in! Good luck Bear! Good to see you are getting to be a regular there coming from freerolls. Huge achievement!

Frimpong, Wirtz or Schick? Leverkusen has a very good and balanced squad with very few leaks (one and probably the biggest is Hradecky 😂), this team is ready for the title under Xabi. Unfortunately, it's Loserkusen or Neverkusen for a reason, but the chance is there. Diaby is good, but only if he has enough space to use his speed. He has never scored or assisted against Bayern, he was pretty invisible against Roma and Porto last year (both known for tough defense). Also, he was better a year ago, so I feel he could be a flop for Villa. I hope not, because that Emery project looks promising. He is a tiny bit better than Adeyemi right now but overhyped (and priced) for sure.

Sabitzer obviously doesn't worth that much, but what to do, prices are up in the sky, unfortunately. And if SA will buy Mbappe for 300...

The problem is that Arsenal is delusional, trying to spend in City-style to have the same success, but doing that in 2 years instead of 10, I don't know... However, this transfer season so far is scary bad, like Football Manager. But let's see how this will work. Because that's actually true that Arsenal couldn't replace Gabriel Jesus and Saliba with quality players when it really mattered, so yeah, maybe overspending could be the "right" thing to win the title - the last few years is the proof.

What answer do you need? City was in the race so the price went up. Arteta needed him badly, he wants him as the franchise player for the next ten years so they paid what they had to and the move looks to convince all the sides. Record fee for them, the only fee over 80 million and only the 8th over 50. Compare if you have any spare time. IMO this is a bad transfer, Rice is overhyped as fuck, nothing special. But Arsenal is known for not spending, but when they do... they are flops like Pepe.

I'm not happy with the changes, but it could work in my favor since I missed the sub window too often. Anyway, I don't think I could do well (not even for a half-season like last year) this time, most of my players are out of the league 😂

Hoeness, picture or it didn't happen! 😝

Leipzig is losing its key players like there is no tomorrow. Szobo is gone to Liverpool, Romano said "here we go", so must be a sure thing. I hope that's not a too big step for him, because he is way too talented to warm the bench... But playing under his favorite coach and mentor Kloppo should be fruitful considering Dominik's work ethic. Let's go!

I always thought Kane is going for that Shearer record at least, but it doesn't look too likely at the moment.

I like Kane, he is a superhero in my eyes. He is in a terrible position playing for one of the biggest loser countries and clubs, so many hopes for both for constantly failing. But he keeps delivering, and it is so "Kane-ish" that he almost scored as many goals as Haaland in a much worse team and no one talks about him. He is staying at one club despite not winning shit is unique nowadays, and that is really admirable. But Bayern? 🙄

The best you could do 🤠

That doesn't change anything, so anyone with common sense would let him go now considering his age for instance. They offered him only 1+1 years afaik, but he wanted a longer contract, he wanted to discover new top leagues until he can. Just for you to remember, that is your argument? 😅 On topic: Gvardiol is 99% sure for City, and the fee will likely break the world record for defenders. Bidding for Rice also going on, Arsenal's 75+15 million bid is rejected, and City is preparing its bid as per Romano. Would be hilarious (but not unusual for City) to spend over 250 - 300 million (Kovacic included) in the first three weeks of the summer break. But hey, they can't hold on to 32 years old Gundogan... Okay. 😂 Related, but not totally: Modic extended and doesn't go to SA. Respect to the old guy!
