Lee Trundle has tipped Brennan Johnson to thrive under David Moyes at Everton following his switch to the Merseyside club from Crystal Palace. The Wales forward has signed a four-year deal with the Toffees as part of a swap deal that saw Everton winger Dwight McNeil move to Selhurst Park. Former Wrexham, Swansea City, Bristol City and Leeds United forward Trundle believes the 25-year-old possesses the talent to win over the Everton faithful.
When sociologist Alvin Gouldner wrote in 1955 that "human action can be rendered meaningful only by relating it to the contexts in which it takes place," I'm confident he had the opening two weekends of the 2026-2027 Scottish Premiership in mind. In Falkirk, bruised by key player departures in the transfer window, St Mirren were presented with an opening away fixture that could have been worse. In facing St Johnstone, freshly promoted yet leaning heavily on those that sealed the Championship, as an opening home opponent, the Saints were smiled on by an algorithm that last year had totaalvoetbal pioneers Motherwell visit in the same weekend.
David Gray took a massive risk at Ibrox with a team selection that hinted heavily at prioritising our Conference League fixture on Thursday over one of the most difficult away games in the league. Gray has made a habit of breaking unwanted records - Sunday was also the first time Rangers manager Derek McInnes had lost a home game to Hibs.
West Ham and Arsenal are in talks about a potential move for winger Reiss Nelson. Both a loan move and a permanent departure are being discussed and the 26-year-old is into the last year of his contract at Arsenal. Nelson has spent the last two seasons on loan at Fulham and Brentford and is not in manager Mikel Arteta's plans for this season.
William Saliba’s back injury, picked up during France’s World Cup campaign this summer, has left Mikel Arteta with a genuine headache going into the title defence. No surgery is required, but “extended period” is the kind of vague phrase that makes fans nervous and with Coventry visiting the Emirates on August 21, Arsenal can’t afford […] The post Who should Arsenal sign to cover for Saliba? Three possible options for Mikel Arteta appeared first on CaughtOffside.
Brennan Johnson says David Moyes played a "massive" part in him joining Everton as he showed he "believes" in him and his capabilities. The forward joins from Crystal Palace in a deal that sees Dwight McNeil move to Selhurst Park. Johnson is Moyes' fifth signing of the summer and has signed a four-year deal.
Lionel Messi and Alexis Sanchez will be reuniting in the MLS as CF Montreal have reportedly landed the signing of the Chile legend. Lionel Messi‘s arrival in MLS in 2023 dramatically expanded the league’s global reach, paving the way for world-class international stars to follow in his footsteps. Now, one of Messi’s former teammates is set to join him in North America, as Alexis Sanchez reportedly closes in on a deal with CF Montreal. According to Chilean outlet El Deportivo of La Tercera, CF Montreal has finalized the signing of Sanchez, with only an official team announcement remaining. The veteran forward arrives in MLS as a free agent following the expiration of his contract with La Liga side Sevilla. Sevilla reportedly pursued a one-year extension to retain Sanchez, but the former Arsenal star elected to end his 18-year European career to embrace the new project in Canada. The Chile icon will fill CF Montreal’s second Designated Player roster slot alongside Spanish midfielder Ivan Jaime in a two-year deal until 2028. While the club has yet to issue a formal press release, final contract details are being wrapped up ahead of an official unveiling. On Monday, CF Montreal teased the arrival on social media, describing the acquisition as “one of the biggest names” in franchise history, while managing director Luca Saputo confirmed in a video clip that Sanchez will wear his signature No. 10 jersey. #🔟 pic.twitter.com/cxu9eOkJC7— CF Montréal (@cfmontreal) August 10, 2026 When could Messi and Sanchez face each other again? Lionel Messi and Alexis Sanchez were once dynamic attacking partners at FC Barcelona, sharing the locker room for three seasons between 2011 and 2014 before the Chilean forward departed for Arsenal. Since then, the two South American icons have clashed on numerous occasions in European competition and on the international stage, with a potential Major League Soccer matchup now on the horizon. The next scheduled meeting between Inter Miami and CF Montreal is set for Saturday, August 29, at Nu Stadium for the 2026 MLS. However, with Messi currently on leave in Argentina following the death of his father and Sanchez lacking match fitness after missing preseason training, fans may have to wait until next season to see the two star forwards square off on a North American pitch. Lionel Messi dominates the H2H against Alexis Sanchez While they built a formidable partnership in Barcelona, both legends have frequently found themselves on opposite sides of the pitch, competing in high-stakes club fixtures and intense South American rivalries. When examining the historical head-to-head record, Messi’s statistical dominance over Sanchez becomes immediately clear. Alexis Sanchez of FC Barcelona celebrates after scoring with Lionel Messi. (David Ramos/Getty Images) Across 16 all-time meetings, Messi and Sanchez have faced off nine times in international matches between Argentina and Chile, alongside seven European club encounters. On the international stage, Messi has compiled six victories while three matches ended in draws, though two of those draws led to penalty shootout victories for Chile in the 2015 and 2016 Copa America finals. In European club competitions, the two met seven times, with Messi’s Barcelona emerging victorious against Sanchez during his stints at Arsenal, Manchester United, and Inter Milan. Messi claimed six wins in those seven matchups, with Sánchez’s sole victory coming during the 2022-23 Coupe de France, when Olympique Marseille earned a 2-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain.
Hibernian's reward for a thrilling comeback win over Kosovo's Malisheva is another Balkan assignment in the shape of North Macedonia's Shkendija. David Gray's side host the Macedonian First Football League runners-up in Thursday's Conference League third qualifying round first leg, after recovering from two down against Malisheva to win 4-3 on aggregate. Artim Pollozhani's side have come through two qualifying rounds.
Players with international experience playing in Canada help grow the game by bringing expanded styles of play, a flair of different techniques, and also add so much to the culture of women’s soccer here.
