Harry Kane misses training

Plenty of reaction to the news that Harry Kane did not turn up for training today.

This has to be the winner though...

Who wouldn't want to play in the Europa Conference League?

This partly explains why Kane is keen on a move away from Tottenham.

From a Champions League final two years ago to this.

Tottenham will play Pacos de Ferreira or Larne in the Europa Conference League play-offs. ??

Jack Grealish U-turn

Breaking: Jack Grealish decides to stay at Aston Villa after seeing this emotional social media post from a random fan.

Open letter to @JackGrealish:

One final bid for Erling Haaland?

"Only a crazy bid can change the game."

Then again, that could be said about every transfer.

"I think this week is the deadline [for Chelsea to bid for Erling Haaland]. I still think an “informal” offer will be the case here, cause nobody wants to lose their face. Only a crazy bid can change the game."

Abramovic to sell his yacht?

Easy to say when it's not your bank… or yacht.

Lukaku or Haaland, just throw the bank at either of them & give them one of Roman’s yachts as a bonus. As the days go by, the reality of Ashley Barnes arriving increases.

Poor Hector

Inter Milan turned down Arsenal's offer to include Hector Bellerin as part of any deal for Lautaro Martinez.

Maybe they stumbled upon this clip from the weekend.

Héctor Bellerín makes a mistake which allows Chelsea to immediately retake the lead. pic.twitter.com/NEM667vWja
