    The Champagne has dried. Cue the rampant transfer speculation and the endless US tours where we get to see a bunch of stars half-trying.

    VAR says that it's time for a new thread.

    A bit of under-the-radar Yanks Abroad news. Mix Diskerud has left Sweden and joined Ulsan Hyundai in South Korea. Gonna be quite the commute for any future national team call-ups.

    I know that he is considered to be one of the best, but that's a lot of coin for Alisson.

    Not a new story among German-born Turks, sadly, of which there are at this point millions.

    Germany does not have birthright citizenship in its Grundgesetz (constitution). However, I would have guessed that the country would've moved quite a ways forward in a quarter-century. Evidently not.

    So he and millions others left Turkey because there are better opportunities in Germany, but now he shows some love for Turkey?

    Fans are treating him poorly and he's taking the heat. Kind of an old story.

    Have they said who their announcers will be or are they just going to use the world feed?

    I got an e-mail that Fios is dropping beIN for the time being due to a contract dispute. Hard to think that they can charge more given that Ronaldo is gone and Messi is on the start of his late prime/early decline.
