Angel Gomes has just signed on a free transfer from Manchester United. He was very highly rated for quite some time but he didn’t seem ready to make the step up, and apparently wanted first team salary to re-sign. Fair play to Lille to sign him and get him to agree to go out on loan right away. Will be interesting to see how he progresses in the next few years.

Isn’t he a homegrown signing? If so, I believe he should be considered domestic for American teams too

Interesting that his xG is roughly the same. Hopefully he gets his shooting boots back and begins to bury those chances. Even if he doesn’t overperform as he did last year, he would be doing well to justify his position in the team. I take some solace from that.

So a poster that says trying to win the Gold Cup is not important is saying others have a loser mentality because they want Canada to take the Gold Cup seriously and try to win it?

Hold on.... have you been accused of having a loser mentality because you believe the Gold Cup is important and you think it is important to try to win it?

I wonder if this is part of the reason James was re-signed by the club. Perhaps they were taking a longer term view of their needs and saw a way that James could be developed/coached to fit into their plans while helping to keep Midtjylland performing during future fixture congestion (and/or if injuries occurred?)?

Haha you read my mind

Great finish. More of that please, Cyle!

Apparently they tried with a late bid (I’ve heard Man Utd and PSG did this too) after hearing Bayern had an offer in for Davies, but it was rejected and Davies had already been convinced by Bayern’s plan for him.

If I’m not mistaken, many Canadians get green cards pretty quickly in the states, so they will still be considered domestic.

I wouldn’t hold my breath.

To me, it is never a penalty. I simply think the refereeing team made a mistake. It’s shitty but they are human too.

OH OH HENRY, OH OH OH HENRY

Wheeler is the worst part of this whole production.

I feel like this could actually work but I think it could require a vocal leader at the back to direct Kaye a bit as it has been a while since he has played in the back line (unless I am forgetting something) and he might need some help to ensure he is always switched on positionally. This could also provide us with a solid passer out of the back to break the lines when starting a new attack or after the ball has been recycled. in a 4-3-3 with Kaye as one of the three midfielders in the defensive phase, and then in possession Kaye drops off to the left of the two centre backs. It could b
