@EBL2017 I agree, I think you want a level raiser just as Declan Rice was when he joined. I never thought Rogers was. I wouldn't have said no but £116m makes me doubt this is money well spent.

Cool heads prevail. Plenty of time for Arsenal to sign another marquee attacker to elevate their attack. This is partly why they would have walked away at the quoted fee of £116m. There IS value and solutions elsewhere.

@scottjwillis My theory is he was being held back for the final and Tuchel fucked up in the semi.

Why is Saka starting this match? He’s not fit enough for the most important match but you play him for a 3rd place match?

@themagic_tophat Sorry, he's not worth £117m, let Chelsea find that out. Good player but not a level raiser, which is what £117m should get you.

That’s what happens when you play chicken with a club, without properly locking down the player. Arsenal had all the leverage so long as Rogers was locked down. Berta never does that though. Same thing happened with Monga. Arsenal’s executive is seriously lacking right now.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea reach verbal agreement with Aston Villa to sign Morgan Rogers⁠. Bid of £117m accepted by #AVFC & being finalised. 6+1y contract, medical Monday⁠. #AFC interested but 23yo attacker wanted #CFC; Xabi Alonso instrumental @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/63902…

Lastly, CS did at least ring me back but saying they will get back to me next week seems like passing the buck and going through the motions because I threatened to cancel.

Little woods, the supplier, the courier 4. I made 3 calls to find out "the system was down", first 2 attempts they hung up and simply redirected me to the supplier, lastly my delivery is massively late and nobody is compensating me for the inconvenience or a delivery date

@LittlewoodsHelp hi I ordered a fridge freezer due for delivery on the 1st July and it's 10 days late. After 3 calls and an hour on hold I finally got a response stating its with a logistics company who doesn't deliver to Jersey, where I live. They "should call me next week" but

@themagic_tophat His release clause is rumoured to be 70m euros, so this would seem odd and also explains why Arsenal bid £55m - just below the release

@fiveyearwaruk @woebetidesus @scottjwillis It will be interesting to see how any costs for damages are accounted for. City could be racking up legal and damages costs for years. Nearly every PL club has a legitimate case, plus a few in the championship. The only way out is be found not guilty of nearly all charges.

@woebetidesus @scottjwillis As soon as they are found guilty of anything you can expect every premier league club affected by their cheating to file a lawsuit for lost earnings just like has happened to Everton or West Ham before them. The lost earnings is in the hundreds of millions at least.

How much do the 115 charges and the potential repercussions for City make their ability to be a stalking horse here? The outcome is rumored to be close but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

🚨 Manchester City verbal proposal to Nottingham Forest for Elliot Anderson was worth £106m + add-ons, taking it above £120m. #NFFC want British record fee guaranteed, not after bonuses. No fresh talks with #MCFC over 23yo England midfielder @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/73353…

We have two Test matches, one ODI, 4 women's world cup matches, a womens Test match, 5 100 matches and various other matches at Lords this season. There are only 5 strips used for top matches so this puts huge strain on groundstaff. And when they get unlucky it all goes wrong.

Preparing cricket pitches is an imperfect science. So I'm normally cautious about criticism. But the pitch for the current Test match is the worst I've ever seen at Lords. And appears to result from the greed that is forcing Lords to stage so many matches this year. (1/2)

@WisdenCricket Having a spinner who can bat is a bonus when you want to pick 4 seamers or the conditions favour pace. It avoids weakening your batting for the sake of options.

I've watched @ManCity outplay Arsenal twice in a few weeks with beautiful football from the gods - it was a privilege to watch - but we weren't good enough across the season and so, with a heavy heart, time to say: Enjoy your title Arsenal fans. Stay Humble.

@themagic_tophat They made €4.4m net profit on €126m outside the top divison in 2025/26. Revenue projected north of €160m for 2026, they can afford the €22m option they agreed.

HSV agreed a good faith buy option of €22m, to acknowledge what they’d pay if the player performed well and the loan is a success. Vieira was their best player this season and now they want to pay <€10m? You blackball bad faith actors immediately and spread the word.
Ryan Taylor@RyanTaylorSport

Arsenal expected to receive undisclosed bonuses from Marseille on top of €1.5m loan fee due to Ethan Nwaneri's lack of playing time at Stade Vélodrome. HSV planning Fábio Vieira talks, won't be triggering €22m buy-option + hope to pay under €10m. ⬇️ mirror.co.uk/sport/football…

@HSBC_UK can I raise a complaint about your gdpr team? They have sent emails asking for confidential information without providing proof of who they are. The email also has grammar errors and despite providing details to match me to my account 100% they say they can't.

@FrankSerpico10 @martynziegler No way is it worth £200m, £2m maybe as a going concern with scope for growth in the women's game. it's not remotely turning a profit anytime soon. Therefore someone would have to pump money into for a few more years, wiping out any value it may have had.

@martynziegler Revenues of £21m approx and a loss of £17m. Home attendances around 8.5k. Can you imagine the reaction on Dragons Den.. Erm… Could you run us through how you arrive at that valuation 😂

Few questions about how have Chelsea complied with PSR. Basic answer is they used Premier League loophole to make a £128m 'profit' previous year by selling women's team to subsidiary company for £200m and that has been enough.
Martyn Ziegler@martynziegler

Chelsea latest: :: biggest spenders on agents again (£65m) :: biggest-ever losses in PL (£262m) :: expect highest-ever revenues this season :: more challenges if fail to qualify for next Champions League thetimes.com/sport/football…
