While we wait for someone to set up Lemmy bots, I guess this manual thread will do for now

    With so many teams looking for CMs this year I’m quite excited to see who moves where. I was expecting a few teams to really get a good start and to get a signing or two done early, but that clearly isn’t going to be the case.

        Yes they do. However Man City, Arsenal, United, Villa, Chelsea, and apparently Bayern are all still looking. Barca is probably trying to pick up one of the many free agents but their situation is complicated. Also, you’ll have some selling teams looking for replacements as well and I honestly expected some teams to panic buy for fear of missing out.

        I think both of those have been planned for a few months which is probably why they happened so early. Players like Rice and Caicedo seem like they might have longer sagas

          Tbf, both of those we’ve been putting months of work into if reports are right. Just need to get the fees negotiated, which admittedly is going to take forever.
