The TT Football Club

[Poisoned Slice]

Today marks a 20 year anniversary of Leo's arrival in Barcelona. How time flies. Pep was the club captain back then.

Bale and Reguilon could travel to London tomorrow to complete their moves to Tottenham. About time as far as Bale is concerned, his future has been speculated for a while. Manchester United were briefly linked with both, what's going on? Seems like they are backing out of most potential deals this summer.

I honestly have no idea. The Sancho deal looks to be on but I can't be sure. Been hearing Josh King's name mentioned as well. Every other club we want to be challenging has improved, Donny is a squad improvement as well but it is not enough to make us serious title challengers. Could be the usual way with United writing a story and getting Sancho in just before the deadline shuts. We have a habit of leaving things late since we left Fernandes half a season late. I'm really only guessing.

Bale and Reguilón are on their way to London:

I do love the romance side of the Bale deal. One of the best of his generation but under appreciated. That's just how it looked from the outside. You know he is going to return to Spurs as a hero and be the main man. Maybe it will be Spurs > golf although I wouldn't bet on it.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Still most excited for Saturday.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Thiago to Liverpool is officially done.

Steven Gerrard shocks the world and says Thiago is more exciting than Bale.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Messi could be going to Rangers and Ade Akinbiyi could be going Liverpool and Gerrard would find Akinbiyi more exciting.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Been hearing that United have agreed a deal with Alex Telles. I think Brandon Williams will have to fight AWB for right back place. Could end up having Shaw moved into cb from time to time. I don't know. Also, been hearing that PSG could be lurking.

What is the 411 on Telles? I know he is highly rated but there is highly rated and highly rated. Are we hyped?

Also, he wouldn't be the first we agreed terms with and don't sign.

The rich get richer as Bayern Munich are blitzing Schalke 7-nil with Sane assisting Gnabry’s hat trick and scoring one of his own. Lewandowski’s Rabona pass was just showing off but it resulted in a goal by Muller.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

The Diogo Jota to Liverpool felt like it came out of nowhere.You really gotta love. Yeah, I'm not spending time looking at Liverpool gossip but I'm sure I would have seen some articles. A good week for Liverpool.

The Bayern machine is ruthless.

 

[Feña14]

The Bayern machine is ruthless.

Sounds like they heard a lot of the Can Can and that strange cheesy German rock song they're partial to in Munich tonight.

On the plus side, Bayern had a poor first half of the season last year, then finished strong. Hopefully for the rest of us it'll be the opposite way round this time.

 

[bezs]

James continuing to perform well for Everton.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Damn, Leeds continue to get it done. Welcome back to the big time, Fulham.

Calvert-Lewin got it done for Everton. Impressive.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Donny starts on the bench. Was unsure about Pogba but he is in.

DDG
Fosu Mensah
Shaw
Lindelof
Maguire
Pogba
McTominay
Fernandes
James
Rashford
Martial

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Fulham get it back to 3-4.

 

[bezs]

Fosu-Mensah and McTominay starting. Odd.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Palace take the lead.. United season over.

See ya next year.

 

[bezs]

Sloppy defending as usual.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

 

[Poisoned Slice]

So ragged, sloppy and disgusting.

Looking like they all been sniffing balloons before the game started.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Does get annoying hearing Red Nev complain about our centre defensive pairing for the whole half.

 

[FRV3]

So ragged, sloppy and disgusting.

Let's see ya do it yourself



jk

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Daniel James could not cross his legs.

 

[FRV3]

Why does Koeman keep starting Neto instead of Ter Stegen?

 

[bezs]

I pity Fergie having to watch that from the stands.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Have to switch United stand off for second half. So depressing.

Greenwood on.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Meanwhile

Looking like Spurs > golf.

 

[FRV3]

Meanwhile

Looking like Spurs > golf.

He's gonna be good yes, but Messi will be far better

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Time to get Donny on.

 

[bezs]

Palace deserve the 2nd goal but retaking the penalty was ridiculous.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Ole joins the not being backed club due to ridiculous United businessmen. Disgusting. Forget Sancho. The defense is ****.

Donny is wondering what he got himself into.

 

[bezs]

United still look like they're in pre-season mode what sort of preparation for the season is this.

 

[stringertom]

Borussia Dortmund may face child labor violations for the goal scored and assist from their pair of 17-year-old stars in the making. USMNT veteran Claudio Reyna’s son Gio scored the goal after taking a pass from English teen Jude Bellingham in the 3-nil win over rival Borussia Monchengladbach.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Arsenal looking good. Will be bantering us this season.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

I'm so disheartened right now. Life is terrible, only getting worse and you go to football for your release. Been allowed to delude myself but it all came crashing down today.

Woodward in his program notes saying covid this and covid that. Covid means the transfer business is difficult. Yeah, but what about Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs, City and every other team? They are not living in covid free world and they got great business done.

But anyway. Roy is quite shocked.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Manure United.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

''We started badly and slowly, we looked like a team early on in their preparation in pre-season.'' That's because we had no pre-season Mr at the wheel.

 

[Feña14]

Manure United.

Lincoln City are in the promotion places in League One. Could be an interesting game for Man Utd in the Championship next season.

Nah, first game of the season doesn't mean anything. When you think of the first game last season against Chelsea, it didn't really say anything about either side long term.

I do think Palace are a decent side too. I think they were mid table before the break last season, came back with nothing to play for and it showed. They'll give all the top teams a good game this season I think.

 

[bezs]

Can blame the board for not getting the transfers through for United but the manager is in charge of the pre-season preparations and how ready the team is for the season clearly that wasn't done properly.

Bayern ended even later and started out right where they left off.

 

[bezs]

Spurs sure turned the poor start around really well.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Son getting it done.

I was having a real bad day, sir. Cue the over dramatic theater style posts from me.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

One for the stat men. Harry Kane is the first English man to assist four times in the same game. (in the premier league. )

Harry Kane getting those dimes, yo.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

I see Alli was left out of the Spurs squad again. I guess it is all OK when you come away with a 5-2 win.

Hyped for Chelsea vs Liverpool.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

If Brighton play this way against United then I see 4-0 defeat for the red devils.

I noticed!

Reminded me of the girls in the group chat when the fella they're seeing doesn't reply within 30 seconds. "he's cheating on you, girl!", "he's probably married and spending the afternoon with his family" and all other kinds of crazy conclusions drawn

United will be fine, I think.

Excuses time. The United stand watch-along played a part. I'm a big fan of the guy that does it but yesterday it was extreme. ''We will be lucky if we finish sixth. '' ''Ole has not been backed'' ''Rinse and repeat what happened to our previous managers'' etc etc etc Then he went on a big rant after the game and another rant this morning. Gotta get it out of ya like. lol

 

[Poisoned Slice]

The impression master.

''Spent most of the transfer budget on Harry Maguire's bail.''

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Jordan Henderson's dimer badge unlocked as well. What a pass to lead to the red card for Christensen.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

That red changed everything. Quick double for Mane and 2-0 Liverpool.
