I hope that Inter won't lose their most important players like Lukaku and Martinez to other big clubs. Their contribution to the championship in the Serie A was incredibly high. If Inter lose them, they could have big problems in the next season on scoring goals.
If Lukaku and Martinez leave Inter Milan, we will not get the expected results from the Inter Milan team next season. They will not be able to win the title. Because almost all the teams are trying to increase their strength for the coming season. Juventus have hired a new experienced coach. The Roma team has changed their coach. Juventus will be vying for the title next season. If Inter Milan's star players leave the team, they will not be able to compete for the title with Juventus. No worries. They won't leave. After Conte left , Lukaku said that he won't be leaving the club even after coach left. He loves the clubs and is well settled. Same goes for Martinez who aslo denied Barca's interest. Barca were interested in him but he told them that he doesn't wants to move. So there you go, two stars still in team. But yeah there are some strong interest in Archaf Hakimi from PSG and Chelsea and this move could happen. |

But I'm still not convinced that Luke Shaw and Grealish are missing from the starting lineup, whatever the reasons.
There are lot of players who weren't named in the starting lineup today but what can you do with so many good players in every position. Southgate is smart and I am sure he will roll them out in next upcoming fixtures. Southgate was smart adding two defensive mids like Rice and Philips which added further cushion to the defense line and honestly they did quite well. It was obvious that Croatia would find it difficult to score. |

I put that in the double with OG - Gambit over 3.5 @1.45, should be free money right?
I like that. OG looked rock solid in overpass in this tournament, unlike gambit who lost to COL and Vitality in this map. It might honestly the only map OG wins today lol i might put some money on Gambit 3-1 win, they're just unstoppable...would be interesting to see Ancient today, OG haven't played in this map yet Easy money on Gambit. OG are no match for Gambit. Well they are 1-0 up and Gambit are 12-8 ahead of OG in second map - Dust 2. Mirage was close one but Gambit managed to win that. Next one is overpass, let's see if OG will be able to be back into game or just give away too easily against Gambit. |

As far as this match is concerned I wouldn't pin my hopes too high. Southgate has Sterling, Kane and Mount in the starting XI up front so they're missing out on Jack Grealish and all the goals he scored. Substitutes don't tend to make as much of an impact in international matches as they do when they start off so I think England will just barely make it out of this match, with 2-1.
Even Southgate himself isn't sure who to start and there's been a lot of talk about people suggesting to him who to play first and that's also going to play into the squad's morale. So a 1-1 draw is also possible.
Not sure if Kane is still moved by last night's horror Eriksen collapse, if he still is then I wouldn't be expecting him to score and 1-1 seems much more likely.
Goal for Southgate should be to just keep on advancing and with the players they have he has more freedom to choose lineup in one match and play with others in next and keep on rotating like that. Eriksen injury was horrific though but I don't think that it would impact players? Lukaku is Eriksen's teammate right now and yesterday he scored two and dedicated one to him. Lineup is good from Southgate with two Defensive mids.. good choice. Anyway I am also bit sad about Grealish not starting out.. |

There are only a few hours left for the England - Croatia game to start. It is really one of the games which I've been waiting excitedly for. I see England one step ahead of Croatia in this huge game. They have a really deadly striker like Harry Kane. I think that England will manage to defeat their opponent with a 2-1 score.
England have crazy talents and they could easily win over out of form Croatia. England have wide pool of players and Southgate really have some good options here. They could easily score 2-3 goals while I think Croatia might be having hard time scoring today. I predict 3-0 England to win. It's not only Kane, they have many players whether it be on wing or mid or defence and all are well established players. |

It was so awkward watching him falling down like that. Every football fan would be worried. Good sign that he has come down to his senses as seen in the pic. Any idea on what happened actually? I can see snipie saying cardiac arrest but is that for sure?  Medical team did a great job... Kudos to them |

Sevilla have offered Spain centre-back Sergio Ramos, 35, a five-year deal. Ramos is out of contract at Real Madrid this summer. Does that mean Ramos stays in Spain and will soon play against his former club?
I'd be quite surprised if Ramos leaves Madrid and joins Sevilla, if you ask me I think Ramos still has quite a lot to offer and even if he's no longer wanted by Real, then I think he can prolly be given one or two years at a bigger club, I don't think Ramos will move to Sevilla and in my opinion if he's to switch teams, then he'll switch leagues, it would actually be interesting to see Ramos play in the EPL. There was also another rumour of Madrid giving a one year contract extension to Ramos and Ramos being interested in that as well. So Ramos playing for Madrid is still on table. But yeah there is Sevilla offer also on table. Still it would be quite wierd watching fan reacting to this. Remember how fans reacted when he left Sevilla for Madrid. |

As for Gambit and G2 , Gambit have been playing great CS but G2 have been playing great CS also.
I'm leaning on Gambit but only because I lost confidence on backing G2 after their back to back losses at flashpoint. Yeah they sometimes drop some easy matches like what they did in Flashpoint. Can understand why you lost faith in them. Still these stages are surprises for me so maybe pick someone underdog is call for me. Will back up G2 here with a small stake. Go G2  |

IEM summer 2021's semifinal matches today. Both are good matchups with almost all the teams being matched against with team like almost similar performance- OG vs Vitality and Gambit vs G2. OG and Vitality both have been struggling lately and just recently have found bit of their performance back. As for Gambit and G2 , Gambit have been playing great CS but G2 have been playing great CS also.

It looks like Ancelotti will keep Bale this season. With Bale's on the squad, maybe Madrid can win the title again next season. We know, Bale had a very important role for Madrid before back to Tottenham. In other news, Ronaldo is also rumored to want to be brought back by Madrid, if this is true, then the Ronaldo and Bale duo will further strengthen their chances. We'll see if it's true that Juventus let Ronaldo go or not.
Bale have impressive performance on Tottenham Hotspur exactly when Bale get chance at the end league and make few goals for Tottenham Hotspur, after Zidane out and Ancelotti become Real Madrid coach have chance for Bale back to Madrid, but many other player will think to left Madrid like Assensio, maybe he will ask to Ancelotti will get minutes playing again or not? Ancelotti has liking towards the players he bought when he was at Madrid. Bale is one of them , but he isn't that good like he used to. Still if think he will be handed lot of playing minutes in starting matches. If he give the performance as Ancelotti expects then he will get regular minutes otherwise will be a rotational player. |

I don't think Dortmund will sell Haaland. Chelsea desperately do need a striker but Dortmund has already stated that they won't be selling Haaland at all. He is indispensable member of the squad and he was the main goal scorer for them. Even there reports that Chelsea Abrahomovic is willing to give 154 m Euro but Dortmund aren't even budging from not to sell Haaland. Guess all they can do is to wait only.
Like they say, everyone has a price, and should Chelsea show so much interest in Halaad and one or more teams join this race...that 154 million might go up to 200 million and am hoping it does not get to this because the football market will be dented and this might result in no sales in the future as all good players will be sold at this bench mark and spill over to only the big money spenders getting all good players. For now BVB not budging which shows they still this talented lad! But it seems like the Chelsea owner really wants his interest in Hallaand at a high price, it doesn't matter that it's important to be able to get him, but what can be done if Dortmund don't budge and they will keep Halland who is so important at the Dortmund club. No wonder a group of big money will continue to hunt with high purchases and also exorbitant salaries what if players are tempted by this de? surely all players want a bigger salary, but who knows if this is a continuation of the story of this ambramovic offer. Haaland already said that he wants to honour his contract with Dortmund and stay. It actually depends upon player and how they feel towards the club and think about career. Haaland has many years ahead of him so no rush and he wants to be committed to the team. While players like Gini and Depay feels like time is running out and wants to achieve more as quickly as possible. |

Maybe there are already enough Dutch people in our team then, but it's no big loss for me I think. As I said before Wijnaldum is a great player but not really suited to our style and Depay isn't really I would think a good fit either. Both of them moved to PSG/Juve because of bigger packages. PSG offered double our terms! So no big deal, I'm happy we didn't overextend.
I actually though that would have strengthened a lot with Koeman getting some good options more in attack area to work with. Anyway I think they missed out a proper striker to lead which was what left them out in the title race last season. With Aguero I think they will be able to work this out.Garcia is also a good addition to defence. Depay is not yet confirmed, just rumours that Juventus getting in the way. Other rumours say Barcelona are confident on Depay signing as well. So anything can happen with Depay going either way. |

If next season is bad for Barcelona, then they could gradually be falling from the top, it's up to their management to secure very good players that the coach would work with, right now, Barca's squad isn't too special to win the CL again, they need reinforcements.
Yeah that for sure. It is not easy to get out of financial crisis quickly and will take time to resolve the situation. Still glad that they made the changes in management and resolved by firing Bartomeu as well. Now still it is a very difficult task for new management to acquire players and build squad with little money to spend. In my opinion they can do we if they start acquiring some youth with potential. They already have a lot of potential young players who could be club stars , maybe a little bit more and maybe sell them later would bring in some. |

Seems like Barcelona won't lose only Wijnaldum. They were supposed to be anouncing Depay in the next few days but that has been cancelled as well.
Apparently, Depay will be joining Juventus instead - also on a salary way higher than what Barcelona was offering. That are 2 free agents they planned to sign and have now lost, let's see now what happens with Eric Garcia.
He's a Barcelona youngster so they will probably complete that one - Garcia himself was pushing for that deal since last year.
Wijnaldum and Depay were two targets I thought would be a strong one as they have good relationship with Koeman as well but guess financial status of Barca right now is what pushes them away. As for Garcia, it is done deal and I think Barca already has announced his signing. It's funny how other big teams are playing the higher salary card to take away potential signings of Barca. Guess that's how transfer things are done. |

another top transfer is imminent, and it looks like manchester united has already reached an agreement with the player J. Sancho, and now only dortmund has to agree to it. In their attempt to sign Jadon Sancho, Manchester United have apparently made their first official offer: According to Bild, the English club is prepared to pay just under €70 million for the international. However, this is far below the Borussia Dortmund’s demand. According to a report in The Times, this amounts to around €93 million as a basic fee plus bonus payments of up to €23 million. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/news/view?id=38696170 m bid denied is being reported but United are trying hard to secure Sancho. Personal terms are all agreed until 2026. They are somehow trying hard to match 95 m Euro tag for Sancho and honestly it's lesser as compared to what they asked for last season. I would really laugh out like crazy if they still don't make it. It would be like two transfer window gone only focusing on Sancho. |

they dropped the ball on vertigo (round 26 was key, up 14-11, they lost to g2 half buy and went on to lose the map), inferno is G2's turf, so... but G2 are looking really solid, this might be their tournament. Yeah saw that. Vitality needs improvement in so many levels now. They need to get shox showing some form otherwise it's gonna be same for them. G2 actually were pretty solid today and everyone played their part well. watching Vp - NIP right now. Would like to see the former against Vitality in the playoffs, Zywoo vs. Device
NIP had a tough time in first map but they made it somehow. That match was screaming over 2.5 maps after watching that first map. VP weren't on their best but they NIP were even poor than them. |

also what a game LNZ had. ztr back to academy and I didn't had much expectations from LNZ but he did very good. He pulled off crazy last rounds for NIP to push the match to OT and he did well in Nuke as well.
oh yeah, he showed up with some great clutches. Good to see that if Rez or Device are having a bad day, Lnz or Hampus can still carry the team. plopski still the weakest player in the squad Yeah, it's been a while since Plopski played some good CS but everyone gets their bad phase. He is still a good player actually but yeah right now the weakest it seems. He used to provide good advantages earlier but not much now. for today i'm hoping to see a good 'ol Zywoo showcase of sensational CS. I have VIT to win and NIP - VP over maps. Virtus.Pro seems to be recovering their good form after a crappy run some weeks ago. Ovp for NIP, Inf or D2 for VP and Ancient as the decider? i like the sound of that
Zywoo I think in previous match played very well. I think other players in Vitality need to step up like for example shox. Shox was also one of the key players of Vitality.t's just that Zywoo became the face player of Vitaltiy but actually shox also used to pull out crazy rounds earlier. Right now they are 1 map down -_-. NIP - VP would be very interesting. |

 Transfer hijacked in the last minutes by PSG, the power of more money and single owner. Gini is heading to PSG after they offered more than Barcelona ever did in terms of Bid and salary after he agreed to join Barcelona few hours ago. PSG are terrorising the market once again, no player want to join Barcelona these days because of their poor recruitment plan. Well that's a surprise. I thought that Gini had his all mind setup to play for Barcelona under Koeman but guess PSG played the wage card too well and stole the player in last minute. PSG is a good club and they need a good strong midfield player and Gini can play that role very well. Now Barca needs to focus on Depay and confirm it for sure if they want to improve their squad. |
