Celtic and BVB both lift their domestic cup today.

Pretty cool for a freedom loving fan like myself...

He's headed to PSG. Sounds all but done.

Talk that Diego Costa wants to go back to Atleti, so Lacazette may not be headed there just yet.

Wenger signing a two year contract with Arsenal.

Tuchel sacked by Borussia Dortmund.

Dortmund have already agreed terms with Lucien Favre, but still need to negotiate a deal with Nice.

Damn, I'm still depressed over this Totti retirement ceremony. I need to get a life.

It was moving and really cool to watch.

So nothing like John Terry's fabricated plastic send off.

I think Mahrez would be perfect for Arsenal. Doesn't work hard off the ball, questionable attitude, talented when he wants to be.

Wenger gets two years and the rumors have already started that Sanchez and Ozil want out. Sanchez would be the one I'd be most concerned with, though if he passes a physical I'd be surprised. He's carried Arsenal for so long his back has to be a mess.

Absolutely. I were an EPL manager and a genie told me he would magically transfer any player in the league to my club for next year only (so I'm taking into account current form only, not potential/youth), I think Sanchez would have to be the pick. Only Harry Kane really comes close.

FC Cincinnati beat Louisville City FC in the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup last night, setting up a match with the Columbus Crew in two weeks.

Hype!

(FC Cincy will be hosting, so I will be there)

Sargent is for real. I think he recently signed with Wolfsburg.

Looking back on the CL final, Juve shit the bed hard. Dybala had a putrid game, he was completely rattled. Every first touch he had was too far out in front of him. I've never seen him play that bad.

On the other side of the ball, Isco played one of his best games. He was phenomenal.

I honestly thought Juve was going to put up more offense, but they came out scared in the second half and got embarrassed. No doubt in my mind Real Madrid is the best in the world. Their ability to successfully contain/pressure the ball everytime Pjanic or Kheidera played it up to Dybala and Higuain was executed perfectly. The Madrid defenders new that Dybala cant beat you if he has no space, and Higuain simply has no speed and cant beat you if he has no support to drop the ball off. It honestly was a horrible match up for Higuain. If Juve cannot maintain possession and give Higuain precision services, he is rendered useless. He doesn't have the technical foot skill/flair to turn a defender off balance, and he doesn't have speed to beat a defender when he is alone. What he does well is receive service in the box and score, or in possession in the box, he is great a finding a hole receive ball with perfect 1st touch , turn and second touch is a shot. He had maybe 2 chance to do that all game and they were in the first half.

Lastly, I am not a fan of either squad. I hate Juve bc I'm a Roma fan, and I've never like Madrid bc their squads have always had players I cannot stand. But Madrid earned the victory. They were the better squad. But for Christ sake Sergio, stop being such a fukwit. Thats all im gonna say.

FC Cincinnati has a team from La Liga coming in for a friendly in July.

Rumors that it will be Valencia. It was supposed to be announced officially this morning, but the reps for the other team, whoever that may be, got on their flight in Miami before signing the paperwork or some such bureaucratic nonsense, and so FCC had to hold off on revealing the name of the club at their presser.

It was supposed to be another EPL team coming this summer, but apparently no EPL teams are traveling to the US this year.

Liverpool close to a deal with Salah.

Van Dijk has also decided on Liverpool over Chelsea and City. Talks set to begin. Van Dijk impressed with Klopp, and if they're matching City's offer and wages, Klopp must surely be impressed with him.

Lacazette's people reportedly set to meet with Arsenal and Liverpool, among others. He's stated previously that he won't leave Lyon unless the club he goes to is in Champions League, so there's that .

Real Madrid have reportedly made a third big to Monaco for MBappe. It's insanity.

Pierre Emerick Aubameyang looks to be going to PSG for about 70 mil... interesting move. curious to see where BVB goes from here... Tuchel started well, much in the mold of Klopp, but this past year was much, much more tight and reeled back.
