So we have seen Real Madrid making some move sin the transfer market already, singing Hazard from Chelsea and Jovic from Frankfurt. Bale doesn't seem to be favoured by Zidane or the fans, so could he be on the move? Or is he happy to sit on the bench and earn the money? Can any club afford his wage demands who'd want him? Erikson seems to have had enough at Spurs and making noises about leaving, will he end up at Real? Who will end up with De Ligt? Will Neymar get his wish to return to Barca? Will Pogba yo-yo back to Juve? Will Trippier join him with Sarri looking to be at the helm there next season? Is Lampard going to return to Chelsea, but as the manager?

Think there will be lots of good stories and some interesting transfers this window. Also, of course, a lot of money spent!

Some of you may have seen it already, it was on straight after the Europa League final on BT Sport.

Well worth a watch though, if you can. A film/documentary covering a wide range of topics in current football with some good interviews.

So that means next year's English entrants are Arsenal, Man United and Wolves for the Europa League.

Right?

My natural cynicism means I'm not expecting this week's "Newcastle takeover" rumour to go anywhere.


Mbappe is already packing his bags in anticipation of a move to the Toon.

Lyon apparently, don't know how it works but word on the street is that it's them


Congrats to Lyon then!

Don't see Arsenal recovering from three down. Do feel a bit sorry for Cech, having to play with this defence.

So, the first of the all English European finals is about to get underway.

One thing I don't get though, if Chelsea win, who gets the extra Champions League place that would be Arsenal's if they won?

Yes, this picture of him is old - but it is better quality than the couple I can find of him that are more recent!

I'd happily take the full time whistle right now.


Well, they managed it - albeit via a penalty shoot out for Chelsea. Thought Frankfurt deserved to go through, but that's football.

Good luck to all the fans trying to get to Baku!

Hello ... What version of the game is being used?

I have the 19.1.1 and the file attached to the post does not load.


Hello,

I have the same thing, but I think the problem is that the save game has the file extension ".crdownloaded" after .fmf which seems odd. I'm gonna try remove the .crdownloaded and see if it works then. EDIT: This did not work, I get the error message saying it can't be loaded and then it mutates my manager on the main screen!

@Dan I'm not sure if this is how you've uploaded it or if it is something @JohnMellor needs to look at in regards to the server?
