Only team in Premier League history to make no new signing during the summer transfer window.
Do we get a trophy for that?
And hey, unless Inter whomps Atleti today we'll "win" the ICC.
There IS a trophy for that lmao
Edit: tomorrow? Saturday? Is that tomorrow. I have no idea where I am. This week's been a blur.

Lovely to see another ex-Chelsea player scoring goals for fun while Chelsea strikers can't score even if they had a pocket full for money in a New Orleans Cat House - hopefully Petr Cech will score a goal for Chelsea this weekend like he tried to do for Man Citeh
Well got to watch Sonny finally earn his military exemption for free on YouTube. Easily the most important match of the day. South Korea beat Japan in the Asia Games final 2-1 after extra time.
How soon before Mourinho is sacked?
And what a "meh" Champions League draw. Apart from a single really weak group, very balanced overall, no real groups of death. Some say Spurs have the worst group of EPL sides. Maybe. Barca will be ****ing hard but we did Madrid and BVB last time and came out on top, and our B side held its own against their B side in preseason. Inter will be a test but doable, and Eindhoven is laughable.

Based on the last two weeks, maybe City is a juggernaut no more.
Yedlin does something right for a change.
Also it's been awfully quiet in here since USMNT failed to qualify for World Cup...
Mate and I have been floating theories about Dempsey's sudden retirement.

What are the theories?

Say, this lower back thing, doctor tells him there's a paralysis risk if he injures it further.
Maybe the big c-word.
Who knows.

Who knows.
Maybe he's just going out before he becomes embarrassing.
Eh, he was still good enough and this was too sudden for that alone.
No secret that some lower back issue forced him down the pecking order. And others beyond myself purported that as a reason for the blindsiding retirement.
Or maybe you're right. No one seems to know for sure. Or at least no one is willing to say so.
Maybe it was this. He was probably [emoji848] too old for this kind of crap.

So we're getting a pro team in Austin. That's it...that's all I got...never to be seen again. Bye Bye! [emoji39]

It was a nice goal by Yedlin - too bad he plays for Newcastle - spuds should've kept Yedlin - way better than Walker IMHO
Kid has heart and pace. Not so much on touch.
Different than Walker. Disagree on better. Faster for sure. I'd rather have Trippier than either.

I won't lie, I will be hoping for a draw at Wembley but a win by spuds wouldn't hurt much either - add that w/ a win by Chelsea & guess would be on Top of Table

O..m..g..
There is a Football thread on a homebrew site?
How have i not seen this thread before?
I must be in heaven.
Arsenal tragic since 98'.
beer tragic since 02'.
Saw the King on his return.
Had more hair back then.

memo to skraeling:
I know you are happy that St Louis FC made it into the USL Playoffs, but I want to let you know the joy will be temporary. STL will coming to the Indomitable City where The Mighty Sac Republic calls home - this won't be fun - this won't be pretty - it will be hard & dirty - so Prepare!!!

Kenny’s knees are sadly in better shape than Ledley’s.
Indeed.
He's Juan of our own!
Kid has a long way to go, but glad to see Foyth get a goal. And good to see Sissoko be one of our best lately (though perhaps that speaks more to others not being their usual level than it does to him). He was arguably one of our best today in an otherwise sh*** performance where I'm thankful we got an undeserved result.

2 great wins for Spurs. Feeling positive!
Beating Barca at Camp Nou will be a tall order.
But we took a point from Real Madrid at the Bernabeu last year, so it's not impossible.
Better than relying on PSV Eindhoven to get a result against Inter.
Also Robbie Keane has fully retired.

Tall order for sure, but I wouldn’t have thought we would destroy Chelsea like that either.

Ugh...
Perspective. Chelsea, then a must win against Inter. Arsenal got to play the lads in Europa. Spurs were clearly both mentally and physically tired.
I'm more upset by the now former Spurs supporter who threw a banana peel at Aubameyang (and deservedly has been banned for life). Leave that kind of behavior to the West Ham and Chelsea supporters. Dammit we're better than that.
