https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2026/06/18/arsenal-transfer-news-jeremy-monga-leicester-city-rejected/ Opening bid rejected but a deal expected to be agreed. Wonder how much it'll be. I can't read the article, can anyone paste it?

I reckon he immediately gets that bit of an attitude you need to become a top player. He looks a bit shy here but I reckon he comes out of his shell at Arsenal.

Something about Tuchel isn't there. I didn't think he was the right man for the job and I didn't think he did enough to convince me otherwise in the games leading up to the tournament. But so far he's behaved impeccably. He carries an aura about him where he's calm but ready to snap if you're not pulling your weight and his past successes tell you he's as astute as they come tactically. Obviously it's one game and the proof will be when we play a big team later in the tournament but I reckon he's got it spot on. First England manager in my lifetime that wants to play to the player's strengths. The front 6 complements each other perfectly. Nice to see we're not just shoehorning names into the team.

The bloke responsible for pushing a toddler into a crocodile enclosure needs to be strung up.

Loving Cov's horrendous start but I doubt they'll care.

The question mark was whether an experienced Croatia side could be too much for us. But now that we've just walked over them, we should be able to make a couple of changes for Ghana and then play the reserves against Panama and win the group no problems.

I don't think it suits any party for him to come back for a year. I think Arsenal will want him in their youth set up with occasional first team exposure. Seems a more common method of integrating young players in top teams now. Long gone are the days where teenagers would be sent to the lower leagues to get booted about by men much older. We should just get as much as we can for him and let him go. No point in developing him and we shouldn't be paying money to keep him.

Incredible to think that he's the same player we had on loan all those years ago.

Same people laughing at Emma Hayes are the same that simply do not understand what she is talking about.

Thought there were more answers than questions on the whole last night but a really solid start all things considered. I thought the left hand side was very weak and I thought Konsa looked like a rabbit in headlights. For me Rashford and Guehi have to start against Ghana.

Messi is just the undisputed greatest ever.

Cherki has put in a genuine 0/10 since coming on

I think he's a bit quicker but there's nothing Olise can do that Riyad couldn't IMO.

Absolute crime that Olise wasn't picked for England at some point. What a footballer he is.

Best English player of all time IMO. Good to see him taking care of himself.

Olise is an absolute magician. So similar to Riyad.

Yeah was gonna say. Barely (if any) contact. Vardy special.

Daft tackle like but i'm not sure it's as blatant as they're making out. Minimal contact.

The pitch is tragic. 1st week of the world cup ffs.

A lot of Leicester fans seeimingly do not understand how a midfielder defends outside of a basic tackle. Skipp and Winks are horrendous at defending. They offer absolutely zero cover for the back 4.

Crazy if he picks Chalobah as the replacement. It will mean we're going into the tournament with 0 natural left backs and 2 right backs (one being injury prone). Just pick Hall or Shaw, surely? I feel like Tuchel is too worried about "he can cover here" or "he's played there before" and not about where these players natural positions are.

He's undoubtedly slow over 5-10 yards. Not Vestergaard slow but he's not exactly quick off the mark.

Has his job role changed? I'm sure that yesterday he was described as head coach.

Rangers; - Are a big club. - Are in a league where everyone sees them as the cup final. - Are a club whose fans are totally disillusioned. - Are a club that historically plays quick, entertaining football. - Has a dressing room that doesn't like being told harsh truths. - Are in need of a serious rebuild that probably won't happen. Rudkin watched Martin go there in almost identical circumstances to those we'll face this season and achieve a 29% win ratio and thought, yep he'll do. It is gross incompetence.

I do get where they're coming from by making out it was entirely involuntary because these wet wipes that think everything is offensive will never believe that something is genuinely just innocent banter. But yeah, he's clearly not making white power signs on the biggest day of his career in front of hundreds of millions of people watching all over the world.
