Chances created

Salah to Mane 25
Salah to Firmino 34
Firmino to Mane 26
Firmino to Salah 33
Mane to Salah 43
Mane to Firmino 17



Mane is right. He feeds Salah a lot more than the reversse


We all noticed it last season

meh...they both have 60 created chances though...unless the implication is that salah doesnt like mane. does that mean mane doesnt like firmino?

Mkhitaryan & Chris Smalling reunited at Roma.

What's with these Italian teams and loans as well as being cheap?

@African_brehda

We are not rich like that breh.
Italian teams know all the transfer loopholes tho
Loan with obligation to buy if player grows an inch taller

My man


When Pogba misplaces a pass

When Moise Kean is upset that Sigurdsson didn't square to him, but you can blame that on Kean's attitude

When Robbie Brady two foots Pogba and gets a red card but it doesn't matter, he showed passion out there

"It doesn't matter that he got two footed it was the fact that he's got attitude problems David"

Guendouzi called up to France

He deserves it. I never understood the tide turning against him towards the end of last season.

I said in an earlier post, his early performances in his 1st season let me know that even going through tough patches that he was a diamond in the rough.

Even in the "bad" games, there aren't many if any 20 year old midfielders playing game in game out in the Premier League and not seeming out of their depth.

Look at these potential bonus numbers

Henrikh Mkhitaryan has signed for Roma, on loan without an option to buy from Arsenal, at a cost of €3m.

The 30-year-old Armenia international scored four goals in 22 games for the Gunners last term.

A statement confirmed there is no option to buy, but Roma are paying €3m for the one-season loan, with potential €0.1m bonuses.

Forgot this lad was still in our team, we got plenty of Left Backs but we still stick with Ashley Young

I don't think that's strictly accurate. Kante said when he heard from Wenger, he had already given his word to Chelsea. Same thing with Jose at united but Jose was even later than Wenger.
