Sky News reporting Arnie's apparently handed in another transfer request.

Can't be arsed with him anymore. The club should cut its losses now. Let him go and become someone else's headache.

[Bertrand]

And he's spent so much time injured (not on big periods of time), that it'd be a good idea to let him leave WH.
who to take over though?


USA-England: 2-1, an exciting game, a deserved win and 3 lovely goals.
Funny how the US field a 5 girl backline close to the end. Could be tricked with that when facing whoever gets out of tomorrow's game.

The club have been after Maxi Gomez for about as long as Pellegrini's been there. It'd be amazing if they can pull that off. Maybe the owners will cash in on an Arnie move and use that to improve their offer for him.

[!@#$%!]

caught usa-england on the road today and wow it was quite the thriller

goals reversed by var, penalties given by var, penalties stopped!, and cards galore (for legitimate reasons) including a red one (which was 2 yellows but should have been a straight red).

fun post-lunch that was. and yeah usa to the final.

Finally! Beerensteyn will be starting instead of Van De Sanden. This was the big discussion before and after every match.

Let's hope she scores

[choc e-Claire]

0-0 after 90 minutes, so extra time. Both teams had chances that were really unlucky to not score, so I can't split it.

Have a crush on Lina Hurtig now tho

[demonrail666]

WH accept 22m for Arnie while Maxi Gomez looks to have signed for Valencia.

Leaves them with a strike-force of want-away Chicharito. And. That's. It.

Five week scramble to get two strikers.

God knows.

[h8kurdt]

How much were you offered 6at the beginning of the year?

[demonrail666]

I dunno. I know the club have accepted less than they wanted but to be honest I'm just glad to see the back of him. Even if we end up starting the season without a proper forward and have to use someone from midfield, I'd rather than that a troublemaker.

Looks like Everton are making a bid for Diego Costa.

Don't think anyone saw that coming. Could be a great bit of business.

who will win the Women's final this afternoon?
at which minute will the US score their first goal? In all their matches they scored within the first 12 minutes or so, only against Italy they scored in the 14th minute.


As much I would like the Dutch to win, I don't think they'll have a chance. So my prediction:
4 - 1 for the US, with the first goal scored in the 9th minute. And the Dutch goal in like the 80th minute.

[!@#$%!]

fingers crossed for the usa team. i don’t know if i’ll be able to catch them on tv but i will try. all about timing. game vs. england was awesome.

also, for those who can watch, there is a copa américa this season and i totally missed it (been moving, don’t have the channel, etc.)

today’s final is brazil v perú at the maracanã

yesterday argentina beat chile 2-1 for 3rd place and... messi was thrown out?

semis were perú 3 - chile 0 and brazil 2 -argentina 0

a lot of shit apparently has been going on but i have no idea nor time to find out

ALSO

the concacaf copa de oro has been happening and mexico usa play the final today. other than that i know fuck-all about it.

don’t plan to watch that one.

lol.

[choc e-Claire]

This should be a pretty high-scoring final, I've got the Dutch ranked as the best offense in the world. The issue is they can't really defend, and the US can (Plus the second best offense). I wanna say 3-2 in extra time to the Americans, but that seems a little unlikely.

Apparently Messi's opponent ran into him for no real reason, the two started pushing each other around, and the ref got a bit trigger-happy.

[!@#$%!]

lol i like gary medel but he’s no saint

[!@#$%!]

well well well

looks like i tuned in at the right time—right before the penalty

that lavelle goal was amazing

afterwards it looked like all the us forwards got greedy and wasted tons of chances by trying to score on their own

[!@#$%!]

caught the last bit of brazil with 10 men beating peru 3-1 (jesus was kicked out at ‘70 or so). no neymar, but richarlison came in late to knock everyone’s socks off. saw some headlines suggesting brazil better without neymar (i believe it).

Luff me a bit of Richarlison. That is until the day he leaves Everton in about 2 seasons time

before him peru had brazil sort of against the ropes trying to tie for 2. not on any kind of individual brilliance, but by sheer team effort.

after he came in... fuggeddaboutit. peru went on the defense.

note to the world: tite (i hope you get to pronounce that right lmao) really means business
