I have no frame of reference for the transfer market anymore. Is 50m even expensive?

It looks like the Swedish Viktor Gyokëres is signing for Arsenal for £65 million from Sporting Lisbon.

Mbeumo to Man U (71 million quid - not sure he is that good).

And Wissa just left camp, if Wissa goes thats two major losses for them

Spain went through to the final after winning the Semi Final against Germany 1-0. They dominated possession for most of the match.

Spain will be big favourites for the final against England on Sunday.

The way thus tournament has played out you can’t count England out

But they do have a shedload of cash to spend .... but with a new manager that's a lot of pressure to make a good start

the Isak to Liverpool stories will not die even after they signed Ekitike

The club has spent the national debt of a mid-size nation in the last few weeks, and have brought in what? 5 or 6 guys who would all expect to be first XI? That never goes well.

Sort of weird a manager comes in, takes on the existing squad, wins the title at a canter, and then goes ahead with a revolution like they finished 6th. Be interesting to see what his KPIs are for this season given this level of investment.

Did anybody light things up with their charisma, charm or absurd arrogance? I honestly can't think of anyone.

Another riveting watch in the Women’s Euros

1-1 after extra time

We’re going to penalties

[sparky]

The English women looked out out their feet at the end there. Not sure why Russo was taken off after 70 minutes.

[sparky]

Beth Mead fell over but scored. She called back to take it again. It's saved. Advantage Spain.

[sparky]

Spanish player makes no mistake with their first penalty.

[sparky]

Second English penalty taker (Greenwood) looks nervous as fuck.

[sparky]

But it creeps in. 1-1.

[sparky]

Second Spanish penalty is terrible. Easy save. 1-1.

All square.

[sparky]

And Williamson the England captain hits a terrible penalty.

[sparky]

But the Spanish player misses. 2-1 to England with one to go.

[sparky]

Kelly for Glory.
