We have like 2 more hours ro compkete Sterling paperwork
I'm going to bed
It was a pretty bad window from every club imo
Euros,Copa for a month and then Fab kills all the hype
Cornet to Southampton may not go thru .. rip
One of the youth team keepers got an assist today
Get him on the bench tomorrow
I don’t think he plays
AND THE WINDOW SLAMS SHUT
Yeah
a pretty quiet transfer window
There’s still hope Rayo can sign Memphis
West Ham United midfielder James Ward-Prowse has joined Nottingham Forest on loan until the end of the 2024/25 season.
Everyone at the Club would like to wish James the best for his loan spell. https://t.co/03uT2APfik

Haller to Leganes
Good on you Lunik
Damn he fell off
Oh ffs matchday today
If we lose by VAR on my birthday I'm flying over to England myself
13:30 Arsenal Brighton
I work from 11-15
Popplio community day
Have to return home for an hour
I have to go back to work again in 17 until like 20
Happy birthday Croco
Have a good one
So a lack of goals
Better not let me down
Didn't miss a game last season ofc
Bruh
In training?
Yeah
that’s messed up
Which Gabriel was it
@hasty mesa
Big one
How long does that draft's timer last lmao
we are facing week one @smoky fable
Aguerd left
Of fucking course
Yup
I get the hardest team first
Wasn't going to get gametime
Did you have to take two defenses
West Ham United can confirm Nayef Aguerd has joined Real Sociedad on loan until the end of the 2024/25 season.
Everyone at the Club would like to wish Nayef the best for his loan spell. https://t.co/TLdHZZU6W1

No kicker? @hasty mesa
Can Fab already get exposed for something bad
Yes
One day you all will catch up to May brain power
I’m making moves the world doesn’t understand yet
Will that day be after the season ends?
Yes after I win it all
Should've gone to Yanited
Leicester
Really got Ayew and Edouard
Crystal Palace scraps is crazy
Prem winners btw
Who let euge get mccaffrey and achane
They’re gonna cook
He has patty mahomes too
Yeah Leicester
They won 8 years ago bro
😭
With Kante and Mahrez and prime vardy
Arsenal are Arsenal
that is the most obvious thing ever
PSG got rid of Soler and ugarte and have by far the hardest UCL group
have they finally given up?
Buc didn't draft a kicker either
Dembele and Barcola and vitinha
Ugarte massive loss
They’re def cooking something
They have won matches easier than they did last 3 years
But it’s only been 2 games lol
So who knows
@celest zephyr good luck good sir 🤝
Snoredi League
Good for Brentford though
Happy for them
Got rid of a toxic striker, got good money for it
@hasty mesa
Good
How do I view the draft again?
Go to settings then draft results
Ty
do you all think this is true
The mets baby the mets lets go the mets
Just so stupid
Good luck

To be honest I never got the hype behind this guy
Always thought he was egregiously overrated
Omg
Balkan
No way
THANK YOU
I have been....saying this....but man
It's 99% been serie a tax
Striker version of Édouard Mendy
These defenders can't handle someone as physical as him, that's just it LMAO
He's not some world class finisher
Just zzzzz yeah I never liked him I'm sorry
Unironically
I rate Chiesa more than him
Lmfao
One of his goals was literally he jumped higher than the keeper could grab
😂
His only choice right now is Saudi
He does love money
How Chelsea aren't commit complete fraud buying all these players is beyond me
🚨 Arsenal sign Raheem Sterling from Chelsea. 29yo winger completes medical + exits #CFC on season-long loan. Deal sheet provided extension until 1am UK to finalise #DeadlineDay transfer. Everything done in time; England int’l an #AFC player @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/UFNL8rD2HU
Apparently Chelsea are paying more
Cos the loan was free and arsenal pay under 50% of his wages?
Like they'd even notice lol
Aiyuk was pulling teeth to get this far and it still feels like SF came out on the better side of the deal
Idk about that. He benefits greatly from Kittle, Samuels, and McCaffery. That allows him to operate more freely vs being a true number 1 on team without so many weapons
Wouldn't that mean SF still comes out on top lmao
Besides, Aiyuks skillset with Purdys skillset matches more for his role as a WR1 Vs Deebo
Gut feeling, you still think Deebo is gone after this year?
Yes
Be interesting to see where he might go if that happens, think only a handful of offensive play callers could use him as well as Shanahan
Watch it be Kansas City at reduced cost
I'd be on the news for terrorism
You know what
#boldprediction
I could see Houston as well
With Demeco there especially
I’d start riots outside Roger Goodell’s office
Same but instead of riots I'd self immolate
Yeah Deebo is gone
Not sure since it’s a crowded receiver room there
Deebo gets hurt too often given his playstyle
I feel Ayiuk came out on top. I don't think he was worth that given other WR salaries
He's a top 10 WR and doesn't break (albeit close) top 5 in salaries. There will be other WRs who will wind up making more than him as more and more contracts are signed. There are three realities we have to acquiesce with;
-
Lots of players are overpaid right now. It's just the nature of the market. Granted, had we worked faster and got it done before other deals it may be different, but. If we decide to classify Aiyuk as an overpay, is he as overpaid as Tua or Lawrence? Even Calvin Ridley makes more than Aiyuk-whos the bigger "overpay"?
-
He is absolutely worth that to the team, one way or the other. There's a reason that the negotiations went for so long. If we want to dissect it and say that there are other better WRs making less (this will change with new contracts trust me), I think there could be truth in that, but would they be able to replicate his role on the team? I doubt it. And that isn't just his presence as a pure WR; his usage in Shanahans offense as a blocker is also elite and he is arguably the best of the top 10 WRs in blocking.
-
Several other teams offered him a similar range that we did or more, so clearly even if people think it's an overpay, NFL GMs don't.
It's a big cap hit in the 2027 and 2028 season.
Which is after the salary cap raise and presumably after Deebo and other high contracts including Trent are done. I fully believe the WR market trend will continue to rise and those numbers will be tame in comparison come 2027
Plus we ALWAYS restructure
Yeah
It was a not mistake to pay aiyuk that contract. You're right on the point that the wide receiver market is just going up.
he got offered like 32 million by the patriots
and the steelers
and also more than the 49ers deal by the browns
he's a very good route runner and basically the best blocking WR in the league
it's not just a scheme thing for him
What really kinda makes me raise an eyebrow here is that it was our original offer from like the beginning of August
That's why I feel we won
and anyways, most of the reason he's so valued is because he fits this scheme, one getting copied and absorbed literally all over the league
he's a perfect fit for it even
I think that it is fair to say that they didnt really move off of their initial platform as this really builds off of Amon-Ra with the intention of making him a real $30M/year WR. Doesnt come near the Lamb/Jefferson numbers
Those two players obviously have more of a track record , but I think this also reinforces how much stronger the #49ers front office was than the #cowboys front office. Lamb should have split between Aiyuk and Jefferson rather than just running alongside Jefferson
this is the only part i disagree with
Give Lamb his flowers
I mean fuck it-if an analyst is saying it makes our FO look better then I'll take that in stride, but I don't think the Cowboys giving Lamb a payday is indicative of their FO not functioning well. Any team with half a brain would have paid Lamb
I don't think he disagrees in paying Lamb, but rather that the cowboys should have been more firm in trying to pay a contract in between Aiyuk's and Jefferson's figures rather than just making it similar to Jefferson.
How long did his negotiations even last? I feel like I heard about them and two days later they were signed
It lasted for the whole summer till recent.
I'm wrong then but yeah it just didn't feel like, at all talked about
Granted my head was entirely in the bucket of Aiyuk and Zubimendi worms but
I guess I can agree with his point. I just like
As a 49ers fan
I feel that the gap between JJ and Lamb is alot closer than the gap between Aiyuk and Lamb
He also didn't demand a trade like Aiyuk did which generated more noise. He did hold out though.
Jesus the stros been on a heater
Honestly
this was probably because he knew that the Cowboys were gonna pay him more than anyone else could
lmao
maybe
Yea that is wierd. More than likely he was hoping to get a better offer from somewhere else but the bigger offer was from a worse situation. Therefore Niners didn't have to offer more
Yeah thats the applicable logic here fs
Top 14 😭
Finish 14th and get him for 20m

One hell of a challenge
Damn Caitlin Clark cooked
Ohtani has no batting discipline or what? He swings wayyy too much for a player of his caliber
you should send him a message
maybe send aaron judge one as well
higher strikeout percentage than ohtani
worse whiff percentage as well
idc much about judge tbh but Ohtani used to be a bit more disciplined a few months ago now he’s chasing too much. Going 0-5 casually is crazy when he used to bat over 300
no, it's just baseball lol. ohtani has batted over .300 once in his career and it was on an uptick in BABIP, he's still hitting .292 despite being in a slump for like a month which is quite good. who are you even comparing him to? barry bonds?
No im assessing him based on how he played all season. Yes he did have a slump but I can tell his discipline is still off because he’s having too many games chasing pitches and going 0 for 4 or 5, he did have those before too and during his slump but now he has started getting hot again and he’s still swing for power too much and very little to simply get on base even when his swing was working he starts getting home run hungry. Once, twice maybe three times ok but doing it all at bats is just bad for the team

oh ohtani homered again
like I said, he has the same (or less) whiff percentage and strikeout percentage as other power hitters of his caliber besides juan soto, and it's in-line with where he's been his whole career, so who are you comparing him to? his best year at the plate was last year and he had even more 0 for 4/5 games in a similar amount of total games
0-2 count too
Sorry shohei 😔
43/43
Yep
he did have a pretty big slump in august tbf
but he's always been a big strikeout guy
most power hitters are
soto is unique in that regard
everything i said takes this into account
yeah you're right
Edu negotiating with Chelsea
Quoting Miguel Delaney (@MiguelDelaney)
Am told, on Sterling, Arsenal paying no loan fee and less than 50% wage contribution
We pay him 100 k, Chelsea pay 200k
Deserved
I think he's still going to Chelsea
idk if this winter transfer window or next summer tho
Let’s go Arsenal nation
@torn gale i hear you're getting fleeced in fantasy

its literally the easiest draw possible stop crying
Odegaard wtf
If raya pulls off another clean sheet I will kms
Oh no 2 difficult matches out of 8!
Get up Saka
Varane has been excluded from Como's Serie A squad list lmfao
SEND HIM OFF
Why did they even get him in the first place
Havertz
KAIIII
LETS GOOOOO
Ayoo
Boots weren't up never a red
Yh ik
We've been all over Brighton
🚨🚨| GOAL: HAVERTZ OPENS THE SCORING FOR ARSENAL!!
Arsenal 1-0 Brighton
Cold finish
Him and Saka balling these 3 games
Whop
All it will take is arsenal to concede 1 goal
Nah that was stupid icl
The ball wasn't going to be played lol
Literally wasn't stationary
Why we crowding the refs boys?
WHAT
Play on
Wait what
The guy could have waited to take the free kick
The ball was moving tho
Rice didn’t even touch the ball on purpose he just walked straight forwards
That shouldn't count
He got a 2nd yellow for delay of play but the ball was still moving when Dunk kicked it
I believe Rice touched it didn't he?
Not intentionally but didn't he slight touch it?
Ok I'm even more confused now
I knew it from the first half this ref is dodgy
Every Prem ref is
Brighton has no excuses not to at least get a point from this match
Don't think they will tho
Then laugh at the Brighton players
Arsenal has a fire under their ass now
He did touch it
Still shouldn't be a 2nd yellow
I hate this ref he's making me agree with Arsenal
Unforgivable
The ball moved towards rices foot even if he didn’t kick it they would have sent him off
Cuz the ref is stupid
Bullshit
Rigged
Fuck the FA
Fucking rigged game
Kavanagh destroyed the game
Fucking stupid ref
I hope that he doesn't make it to Christmas
Calafiori on
It's over
We've been robbed
Yh we playing defensive now
I'm sick of this league
Most likely to be a draw now
I’m gonna cry
Even in the first half
We should have had that free kick on the edge of the box
But no
Rice out for NLD
Ik
Jorginho x Partey double pivot
That’s so jarring
Icl we need nelli to come on if we wanna win
We need that pace for a potential counter
To do what? Take ball out of bounds just like every counter
Bro we are finished
The defence has fallen insert chudjack image
COME ON
arsenal about to loose lol
WE STARTING TO PERFORM AGAIN
PLEASE
DAVID RAYA SCREAMER FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PTICH
WHAT
Arsenal losing the pl title race on matchday 3
Prem deserves all the hate it gets
We need new refs man 😭
What's the point of this account?? Give us some bts or something https://x.com/PLMatchCentre/status/1829862833971966126?t=IHOdB7KDZ2WwFTiR-2UlKA&s=19
#ARSBHA – 48’
The referee issued a second yellow card to Declan Rice for delaying the restart.
I'm crashing out
It’s a daylight robbery
Timber booked, great
Purely to show what the players got a red for or why the goal was disallowed
I think it's high time we get VAR for double yellow cards too
Noo havertz
Ofc they have replies off btw
Pussies
Wtf just happened
Good save from raya
I nearly shat myself
We can still do this
We can pull it back
NOOOOO
PLEASE NO
NOT ZINCHENKO
PLEASE NO 😭
How is Calafiori playing?
He’s been alright
Nice
I'm glad more people won't like Brighton now
Why is that?
I'm not watching the game
In general I'm saying because they're mini chelsea
Can you even call them mini?
They spent 2nd most itw I think
I thought they were liked by the majority of the fans
Better than Gabriel
At a point sure
They were enjoyable
Is he playing lb or cb
That europa league season was pretty nice
CB I think
Who did they buy??
He’s gone to cb now
Minteh was probably their best buy
I think he played on the left for a couple minutes
I think that's the role he can thrive the most in
Never heard of him, is he good?
That's what I mean he's good yeah
I like him and Kadioglu but that's about it
From the buys
I only Kaidoglu and O'Riley but only because O'Riley was linked with Atalanta
This is all possible because Chelsea keeps giving them a ton of money
I think Brighton spent more than us lol
And more than almost every other European team I would guess
mmmmmm I really wonder who n. 1 is 🤔🤔
This is the type of transfers you make on fifa in the 2030 season 
Owari da
Book raya for time wasting but not the Brighton players when they were time wasting on the free kick earlier 👍🏽
Also
Earlier in the game
We had a throw but a Brighton player kicked it away with no booking
The same thing happened with rice but only rice got booked
Fuck Brighton
Daylight robbery
Feels like a loss
Give the title to city already
It's fine guys they're the best team itw just that they won their first UCL a season ago
Who am I kidding we are still the best league in the world 🔥
If we don't win atleast an FA Cup the season is a fail
I should not be stressing in gameweek 3
I'm pissed because fix these fucking dogshit refs up
And VAR...easiest job in the world right now
DOesn't matter what decision you make you don't get punished
So when Joao Pedro did this, ref gave no yellow 🤔
Brighton players kicked the ball away twice to delay restart but they were given nothing 👍🏽
Knowing the EFL I don’t think appealing is the way to go
They’re big babies, if you say they’re wrong on something they’ll just be worse
The prem teams should come together to face it
VAR shouldn't be abolished
The people who operate it should be changed
We need the automatic var
Sorry guys but
The prem can defo afford it
It was a good thing it happened vs Arsenal
Because when it happened vs us we are not a big team
It takes more away from what it brings, remove it until you’re able to use it properly
We need the automatic one
From the wc and euros
Bruh we face Spurs without Rice then we have Inter and then City all 3 games away
Sure for offsides. But a guy spending 5 minutes in front of a camera and still getting the decision wrong is just stupid
Dates out for cl?
Exactly
Find better personnel
It CAN NOT be that hard
Queen Elizabeth
Honestly they should just use it for things that can be checked fast and certain. If the check takes too long it ruins the game
Eventually offsides will be fully automated
The issue there is what if it malfunctions
Our crowd sucked today
All turn up when we are leading
Some of these clowns get tickets before us lol
I thought the boos at final whistle were good
Can't bottle the lead if you never in first
With Raya and Ben White
Thisssss
Not to Mainz bro
Everton ?!
Bro what is going on 
raphinha been so good this year
Idk man ffs
lewa too easy
He scores goals
What can I say
nice ball lamine
It really be like that brother
I don’t get it
It pains me when I can't prove players because they don't get enough gametime lol
He scored again
His profile is so good too
Where are you watching the games?
big. lanky. fast. powerful
i have the peacock subscription, idk how it works in canada
I had last weeks games but this week I only have the city game
i see
Oh espn doesn’t have the games
not in america no
very poor bro

Is it?
#Georgia EDGE Mykel Williams (6-5, 265)
Up-close look at the prospect that enters the season as the No. 1 player on my big board for the 2025 NFL Draft.
@rustic ore
We deserve to be losing like 4-0 btw
Idk what it is maybe they're terrified of the Everton fans
Understandable
Watching cinema before peak
Semenyo really is our best player
this my type of hate fr
What a comeback
I missed him coming on
I watched Duran instead
Maybe last minute pen for Leicester
And we almost scored again
Come on vardy
Before you ask, I graduated from OSU last year
Ah another Buckeye fan here. That’s nice to hear for Appalachian state too.

One of my favorite Johnny Gaudreau moments was this game in December 2015 when he and Brad Marchand got coincidental penalties against each other and then flashing a huge grin as Marchand gave him an earf…
💖 4.91K 🔁 226
Relegate Everton now
My sisters go to App, I went to OSU. Got a lot of friends who went to NC State too. So those three primarily
I’ve been barked at thrice
Nice trifecta of schools
In tier order it’s
- Buckeyes
- Mountaineers
- Wolfpack
….
Oh he didn’t give the pen
I’m an App State and Ohio State fan I’m always praying on the downfall of scUM 😭🙏
Gg full time lol
LEYS GO
Just insane
I just peeped lmao I can’t believe it
ALWAYS
So uh
Paying attention to any particular games beside OSU Akron?
Thanks for the birthday present Bournemouth
Oh they came back
ill have to check the list of games but one im watching is miami/florida
def wanna see how cam ward does there
some other good ones prob out there too
Alright
Now you just gotta learn to defend and you can go far
Yeah bro idk wtf the defence was doing
That’s 7 goals in 3 games
Everton will still find a way to get 17th on the last match day
RAPHINHA WITH A HATTY
Barca is actually good or is it flick magic?
He’s started the year off well
he's been clutch since the ucl knockouts
Man, Georgia look a bit more vulnerable offensively. Losing Bowers and Ladd does that though. But Clemson has some studs on the defense side
That’s how it should be
True true
I do like Flick
nfl starts this Thursday right
Why are Man City wearing a fenerbahce kit
why's there a Friday game
What a clearance by luperto 
Haaland ofc
They’re playing in Brazil and NBC got a peacock exclusive broadcast
Atp if haaland is not in your fpl you might as well quit

Damn near did that off his back foot
Oh Dani Omni scores
That was crazy
So Xavi was the problem?
Yeah heck of a throw

He wanted 8 goals
I like flick ball
Seems like a good day for you and fate
this is a massacre
I captained him. Give me the points
Ferran 7-0
LMAO
Okay this is INSANE now
Please James goal
Rapha with 3 goals 1 assist
Is valladolid that bad?
Oh I can't wait for the el classico this year 
Madrid won 3-0 too tho
wtf is braca on this season
Barca did double
Not even on the bench
. It has started already 
Oh he is still mad af lmao
https://x.com/TheEuropeanLad/status/1829923932243169719?t=-B1kVGGCeTeKbr4AIaNgIA&s=19
Yep
he always like that
A win is a win
Facing Barca and Madrid in the first 4 gw is crazy. Valladoid needs some prayers

The worse is done. Now they can recover 
Worse is an understatement
They got fked
I want to see the Taylor Swift play
“Swiftie Swiftie” set hut
I see Haaland is doing the usual
how many goals is he on rn
7
Lewa has 5 I think
Why is Salah not vc if you have him? It's against man u ffs
he was a great outside the box finisher for dortmund
city system kinda made him look like a tap in merchant
City's attack is unstoppable
Because Diaz had more points last week
You can score against them but you can't defend
I'm not watching city rn but I'm still sure haaland scored inside the box tap in
crazy power on that shot
His fucking foot power man
You actually have to put 3 people on him lol
Haaland just defended Antonio
Oh hell nah what has Pep done
Why's he playing so many roles now 😭
This is a good one i will give him that
Outside the box last game
Granted it was Ipswich
The 1st goal today was a 1 on 1
Good chance but at least not a tap in
Defense is playing really well but our offense is killing itself with the play calling and penalties
What did he do this time?
How am I supposed to believe in James redemption when he’s already on a plane to Colombia while his club is playing. So unserious, I’m tired of this shit
Yeah the running back play has been tough too
They did yesterday
He just wouldn’t play right before the Colombia games
Now I get why no one wanted him
If he wasn’t match fit he wouldn’t be playing for Colombia. He treats club football like a vacation. I love what he does for the country but man his work ethic is one of the worst I’ve ever seen
I wouldn’t blame him
Fairs
Offense needs to wake up
Defense is playing incredible for who they are up against
Penalties need to stop
Kudus man
easy
You watching any games Buc
Lmao idk who this guy is but I’ll do the first one too
Coz there’s no chance
Working rn so can’t
Ah I see. Hope you can watch the gators Miami game for your sake
Michigan one is rough
PSU and Oregon also potential loses
UT freshman QB apparently having a break out game
Oh my god
I don’t think my heart can take another loss to Michigan
they shouldn't
what a catch by the tight end on 3rd down for the first
roughing the passer too for more yards on it too
Haaland Hatty
Haaland br
of course
dinky dink
Sorry Arsenal bros
I don’t think man city is going to lose in pep’s last season potentially
And before everything goes down
doubt it either
Oh shoot Mykel Williams is down and shaken up for Georgia
Hope he’s good
Getting up
No way virgina tech is losing
I mean they’re both unranked for a reason
Honest toss up 
I feel like they have been glazed so hard it's hilarious to see then losing to vandy
Ederson insane save
70 goals in 69 games...
Leverkusen lost :)
lerkursen ain't gettin a streak this season 
Is this what it’s like to have Matt Canada call your plays
yeah this game is over
27-3
Is this your setup? Nice lol
😔🔫
They pick not to start stretching the field
Yeah these are just ok lol
Why
what a pick by starks
I thought you were a georgia fan. clemson?
big run by the rb by frazier
I’m an lsu fan but I go to Clemson
Hope they beat the crap out of USC
Literal machine
Oh my goodness. This is why Malaki Starks is a blue chip prospect
@rustic ore
Crazy pick
Fantastic technique
That was too easy
Does that super subtle hold where you push on their inside hip to slow them down
Me too. I need this
I go to college football to escape shitty offense
Not whatever this is
Yeah we got like a 100x100 tent to tailgate with
Pretty sweet
The price must be paid for you getting to see that 2019 LSU team
How were we only 10.5 point favorites
Insane doesn't even begin to describe this
We were beating chatt 45-0 at halftime
Don't have Lazio players on fantasy bro 😭
They suckl
I don’t even deserve this
clemson getting whooped
Muk pack goin crazy rn
Most annoying coach in College
why tf is there an international break already
Because the sport is dumb sometimes
No idea why it happened so quickly
Dabo Sweeney is dogshit
He’s lucky he don’t play in the sec or he wouldn’t have a job
I can't watch osu because I'm on vacation 
WITHOUT WATSON OR TLAW HE'S SHIT
1-0
No more Saban this is Georgia's sport now
Didn’t look to hot in the first half their game, but they took care of business
damn hate to see it
And yeah he bitches and moans too much
10 mins left 🔥
Didn't have our stud of a RB playing
Nm my dad got it on

GA fan??
We better fucking win today to make up for me having to sit in an hour of traffic last night coz they were still setting up booths
💀
Of course
I just want to see better qb play than Kyle McCord.
And see some defensive highlights
won't take much to better than that guy but i hear ya
time to see how all these moves look on the field
yep
lol used to be cause that’s where I’m from
Marietta
Vols fan now tho
