Very disappointing for my team to be in the play off places all season. Needing just a tie out the last two games (or even if they lost both, just not having a six goal swing would do it). We lost first game in injury time. Lost second game by 3 goals, while the other team close to a play off place won by 3 goals. In the play offs right until the 88th minute of the last game of the season.

Crazy that Forest didn't make the playoffs. People talk about it's good to see Leeds back, but Forest are just as big.

Yes, it would be great to see the likes of Wednesday and Forest (biased, i know) back in the top league along with Leeds.

Leeds are going to spend on forwards now that they are back in the PL, and IMO it'd be a perfect move for him. Chance to play every week in the best league in the world.

 

David has came out and said after the reported Leeds interest that his heart is still set on Lille so it appears that is where he will end up.

Most boring FA cup final ever

Historic for Canada soccer.

Bayern Munich has written history. The German Rekordmeister dismantled Barcelona 8-2 in what was the biggest victory by any club in a single Champions League knockout stage game. According to the Transfermarkt database, it was Barcelona's biggest defeat since their 11-1 defeat to Sevilla in 1940.

Bayern + Phonzie play Lyon in the Champions league semi finals today at 3pm. Winner goes onto play PSG in the finals. Lyon is under rated but Bayern should win this fairly easily.

 

Also, Jonathan David scored a goal in his first game with Lille the other day.

 

And finally, Vancouver is set to receive another 1M from Bayern: https://www.bavarianfootballworks.com/2020/8/19/21374653/bayern-munich-alphonso-davies-pay-vancouver-whitecaps-bonus-fee-win-champions-league-1-million

vdBeek off to United for 40 mill

vdBeek off to United for 40 mill

 

Donny Van De Beek is an excellent little player and 40 million is pretty reasonable for a player of his quality. Not sure where he fits in on ManU with Poga and Fernendez still there but i guess when you can get a class player for a reasonable fee you do it.
