What is going on at the end of this game?

Frantic end ... but Real still managed to squeeze through.

PSG, Chelsea, Real & Fluminense into the Semi's.

Edit: Arsenal trying to sign Madueke, so he might not finish the CWC.

They make this weird cash grab tournament but then make it so PSG and Real Madrid don't meet in the finals? Someone is getting fired.

I didn't bother with the CWC as that DAZN app is horrendous.

Yeah I've tried using it on my TV and it's constantly spamming me with ads to upgrade, they've even managed to window the game and show a separate window with ads during the game alongside the "upgrade" popups. Awful. I know how to upgrade, people don't need a reminder every 5 minutes.

Yeah.

I watched the Bayern v Auckland game and it was fine. I then tried to watch a game after, and it was upgrade adds every 2 mins.

They were forced to give a freeview option, and it seems they have made it as uncomfortable as possible for people to watch. I'm sure the Saudis will get a world cup out of it though.
 
Someone from the UK please explain me this transfer window im hearing about.

In portugal , clubs have almost at the start of the season to buy players. isnt the same in the premier league?

The English transfer window is now open until September 1st and the first fixture of the season is 15th August. So clubs will have a couple of weeks after the start of the season to finish up any transfer business they've been doing or panic buy after a bad start

Yeah, forcing things over & over will only piss people off rather than make them upgrade. Saying "Millions have upgraded already" is very questionable too.

Also, this transfer window was a bit strange because it opened before the Club World Cup, then shut, then opened again for it's usual time window.

I did upgrade, for a month long event I think that's fair, although the likely US commentators are kinda weird for sometimes, like when one of them after a sub still kept Vini when it was Rodrygo
And it just sucks that due to the f*cking licensing I can't have a decent reliable english speaking streaming sub to whatch the whole season wihtout also having a VPN, such a shame.

Anyway so I was already excited for the new season with Real Madrid, but Xabi clearly have some ideas and there's also the exciting new signings, so with some more tweaking next season is looking even more dope right now. Can't wait!

US commentators irritate me, the way they word things like it's an American sport. Just certain phrases like "on the defence" which just sounds like it's from an NFL game.

I did see that DAZN have picked up the Serie A games for next season but it's not enough for me to sub.

Real have a really strong team, excluding the right back.... 👀 I have a feeling they'll be too strong for Barca this year. Though Barca have a generational talent in Yamal, but one player doesn't make a team.

Put the Poland v Sweden game on for some eye candy but the Polish team is ugly :messenger_angry:

There's some talent in the Swedish team though. Lehmann is a bench warmer for the Swiss so gotta look elsewhere. :messenger_tears_of_joy:
 
Well... fuck. Such a shame to have that 2 silly mistakes in 1 game so quickly.. anyway what a fearless team they've became this year. Congrats to PSG, still it's just nice to see football with the exact opposite style of parking the bus and bagging all the trophies whithout any Ronaldo and Messi around.
Still it'd be fun to see Chelsea beat them now.

I tend to tag the few topics im a regular in so I know when there's updates, dunno if you've tried that? Not the ones that are so busy I'd get 100 alerts every 4 hours. (I'm looking at you Friday night topic! :messenger_tears_of_joy: )

They definitely had a masterplan and rolled with it. :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Tonight's game was entertaining too, the Swiss crept through to the quarters and Alisha Lehmann showed the world why she doesn't get picked. Still got a nice ass though. 👀

PSG will walk over Chelsea if they keep playing as they are. It's on at the same time as the England women ... And I'm at work. :messenger_unamused:

Enjoy Oasis! (y)

That Saturday right? my hangover plan.

Currently in danger of peaking to early watching old Oasis vids and drinking heavily.
 
For fucks sake, why won't Man United just sign anybody?

Signed Cunha and next it's a bunch of kids for 2028 or so. More than One whole month on this Mbeumo saga. Meanwhile Arsenal, Chelsea and City are sorting themselves out. Liverpool too.

And we're supposed to be on a major rebuild journey.

Looks like a 10th place finish this season 😡

We lack money and European football.

We're not the juggernaut we once were. Next year I believe our sponsor deals expire so it'll be interesting how much investment we get on that front too. 10+yrs of mismanagement and daft spending has sent us on a downward spiral.

However, those kids were buying now could be our beacon of hope if their careers and game time are managed correctly.

We need to get rid of the deadwood like Sancho too.

I hate to break this to you, but Man Utd will never go back to the glory days.

They're the new Leeds Utd. I give it a season or two before they find themselves in the Championship.
