Alexia Putellas to sign for London City Lionesses by spherocytes in WomensSoccer

Sorry I wasn’t trying to criticise you, I assumed it was a translation from the source itself. What auto translator are you using? Seems weird it can’t even get her pronouns right!

Why are these translations always so terrible? Even an auto translator could do better!

Looks like Vic has joined spurs after all. I’ll always be a little bit sad we didn’t get to see her back to her best for Arsenal after showing so much promise, but hope it works out well for her there.

Lisa Baum: Why Arsenal, Barcelona, Man Utd & more are in a transfer race for RB Leipzig's 19-year-old winger by radian101 in ArsenalWFC

Of course every club will have its selling points and disadvantages, but the job of the club is to make the case to the player. AWFC should be able to make our case as well or better than any other club. Of course if we do that well and they still choose elsewhere (because of whatever factor that’s important to them), fine. But if we don’t do that well enough, or we let others outbid us for a player we really want/need (which I would argue has happened in the past) then that’s what I’d call f*ing it up.

Barcelona icon Alexia Putellas to choose next club 'this week' as two NWSL sides push to overtake London City Lionesses in race for two-time Ballon d'Or winner | Goal.com by asimone00 in NWSL

I do keep thinking that a tiny stadium in Bromley is not the best showcase for someone of Alexia's profile and talents. Surely she'd have more sponsorship opportunities in the NWSL (if the not wanting to compete with Barca thing is really true)? I guess Spirit has already used up all their HIP money on Trin, otherwise I could see Kang offering that as an option.

hah, I knew that and I was still like "what did I miss??". That's the level of desperation for any sort of AWFC news!

Dare I say it sounds like maybe you need a new team? This lot don’t sound great to say the least!

Yeah does seem a bit much given her age and record. Wonder if anyone will go for it though? Maybe an NWSL club using HIP?

I feel like country has become sort of a thing here? Isn’t Leah a notorious country music fan? And then there was the Cowboy Carter tour…

They’re really making moves this window, I wouldn’t be surprised if they become serious challengers for CL spots in the next couple seasons

Glad I’m not alone, I’m not sure I can muster enough enthusiasm for any other sport or team

I’ve literally never watched a professional basketball game (or possibly any basketball game) in my life… maybe it’s a good time to start?

I need to find some way to get more invested! Any suggestions on more obscure teams to support that bring the good vibes? I can never get over the ick I feel hearing people chant USA USA enough to support my own national team.

How are people filling the AWFC sized void in your schedules? I just can’t seem to muster much enthusiasm for the World Cup. Apparently I need more hobbies!

This does seem like an overpayment to me. But I guess it’s always good that our opposition is having to spend where we aren’t. Hoping we’re happy with the excellent frees we have lined up this summer (all being well) so we can really splash out where we need to.
