Fekir on the verge of joining Betis means we should hopefully wrap up Lo Celso soon.

Decent week if we get him and Sessegnon in.
 
And what did it mean? Absolutely nothing.
We still qualified for the Champions League again and you finished mid-table, as you would have anyway.
Our win at your hired dump in the League Cup meant more, but you won't hear us banging on about it, as it's not meaningful.

To be fair it was your first defeat in your new ground.
 
Means something though, it’ll be one of them stats on your stadium forever.
What was Man Utd's first loss at Old Trafford, then? You probably can't even remember what the last one was, off the top of your head.

Well I can certainly remember the last one <laugh>

I can also google some fun facts and find out who beat us there first 750 years ago.

Obviously you’ll play it down but it’s a thing, innit.
 
The Gunners are set to beat Tottenham to the signing of Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos. The 22-year-old Spain international would join on loan. (Mirror)

<doh>
What the hack journo doesn't point out is that Poch won't sign loan players without the option to buy, and the loan of this player does not include an option to buyer, so we were never going to buy him.

Therefore, Arsenal haven't "beat" us to anything.

What they have done is get themselves stitched up like kippers on a temporary loan deal with no guarantee that either Real will sell the player at the end of the loan, or that Arsenal will be able to afford him if Real do offer to sell.

Cardiff! <laugh> Sorry, I forgot.
Your first loss was the first game, apparently. You got beat by Liverpool... <whistle>
