Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - We are SO back, the Premier League returns!

[TobiOT]

Back for the new season.

 

[Ukbrotha]

So what are your expectations for your team this season?

 

[TobiOT]

Took 2 years to get Sancho and another month just to announce him.

Announced Varane nearly a month ago and we are still yet to annouce.

Can't sell anybody because we offered these bums high wages and we are trying to sell them to clubs for ridiculous prices.

Now we might not get a DM.

All this turmoil before we face a fit and determined Bielsa Leeds tomorrow and infront of a packed crowd...So Ole can't hide this time.

Manchester United Football Club are back.

So what are you expectations for your team this season?

Ole's minimum requirement is a trophy, title or a title race to the last week and a deep Champions League run (Should be sacked if we get knocked out the group stages)

At least most of the Ole inners and the Ole outers will be on fair ground this season, if Ole bottles it again he gotta.

YPOTY - Foden
POTY - Kane

Not ideal but he wants to be here. Maddison would've been better but we move.

Will Veratti ever leave PSG? It’s been almost a decade

He’s never even played in Serie A. Joined from a Serie B team. Dude probably speaks better French than Italian these days.

Auba and Lacazette both out today due to illness. I think Arsenal starts out the season losing points again.

I'd bet on Nketiah starting over Balogun today despite the fact that we've been actively trying to sell him all summer

Eddie is injured breh. Balogun and Martinelli should get the nod but I fully expect Arteta to overthink this

 

[TobiOT]

Hope it's a good one tonight.

No Auba or Laca might not be bad today.

 

[Ukbrotha]

How has it taken nearly a month to complete Varane's signing but Lukaku was signed in less than a week?

Ivan Toney will bag a brace today.

2-1 Brentford

Manchester United Football Club.

In seriouness, I guess the Covid restrictions aren't as bad in Italy and Spain.

But from the past Monday, Varane wouldn't have needed to quarantine.
