    Tyrone Mings out for a year. Max Gradel out for six months. Terrible luck for Bournemouth.

    Could have really used some EPL games to bridge the gap until the 12pm CFB starts... :crossedarms:

    With you man. Killing me, but the Copa, Euros and WC make it worth it in the summer.

    Yeah but these international matches are enjoyable and can you imagine watching if they didn't have a break and guys were called up. MLS doesn't do the break and not everyone is playing. So Columbus Crew are down 8 men and some teams don't have to play at all

    It would be great for teams without as many internationals... Sorry your team is too good (to be fair, the top 10 or so would all be missing the majority of their XIs)

    I was also thinking you'd have teams not releasing players too

    Clubs are required to release players for official FIFA match dates.

    Really happy FA decided to not ban jake Livermore for failed drug test. Story is he turned to coke in depression after his infant child died and he couldn't cope. Basically the definition of extenuating circumstances

    Roger Goodell would have probably made an example out of him

    I can't believe our top of the table clash with Palace got 10am slot instead of noon.

    I guess it's good to let these mid table clubs get that spotlight sometimes too

    crazy that the keeper played well in a 3-0 game but that could have been brazil against germany without begovic. injury certainly doesnt help our current situation though

    From the club itself:

    @ManUtd: David De Gea has signed a new four-year contract at #mufc with an option to extend for a further year. http://t.co/Z3JuQOaNEi

    Really can't help but wonder if MUFC were trolling Real Madrid the entire time. :laugh:

    Poor Begovic is like a mafioso with a no-show job in "waste management" but actually getting called in to work. This isn't what he signed up for.

    Back in May, there probably weren't very many people that would have thought De Gea and Yaya would still be residing in Manchester at this point in time.
