Christian Eriksen has agreed in principle to sign for Manchester United - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62037422. "A three-year contract is being prepared for Eriksen, who is still to have his medical at Old Trafford."

Report on today's game here - https://www.rangers.co.uk/article/rangers-kick-preseason-off-with-thistle-match/29BZPWmP01aTYCsBK3xw81. Our line up was Sneddon, Muirhead, Brownlie, Akinola, Milne, Docherty, Bannigan Turner, Smith, Tiffoney, Graham. McMillan was on the bench with two trialists and five apprentices. Mitchell, Holt, Lawless and Dowds were not in the squad. Cole McKinnon was on the Sevco bench.

He's better than Keane (not difficult) but it looks like Lampard's got no money to spend on transfer fees this summer.

Inter Milan have signed Andre Onana from Ajax on a free - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/africa/62011991. There was a rumour that, before his ban, Chelsea wanted him as a replacement for Kepa. Inter have also signed Henrik Mhkitaryan on a free from Roma.

Crystal Palace have signed Sam Johnstone on a free transfer from West Brom. Another very good piece of business.

Excellent news for Liverpool fans. The new strip is a big improvement on last year's. Simple and classy.

So where does he and Perisic fit into Conte's' preferred 3-4-3 formation? Richarlison could presumably as Kane and Son are automatic starters. Kulusevski impressed after his arrival last season Levy would be crazy to sell Son to Real Madrid if their rumoured interest is "real".

Probably confirmed officially later this afternoon. His new 3 year Sevco deal was announced yesterday.

The away kit's black shorts would look good with home top and socks.

Happy with that but the white shorts look a bit out of place. The away kit's black shorts could look good with it.

Arsenal are not going to let a 27 year old go on a free at this early stage in the window. It's a classic try-on because Bellerin would be able to get a bigger signing-on fee if he was released. He is in the last year of his contract. Arsenal will offer him to other clubs to force Real Betis to cough up some cash.

Southampton have gone Dutch with an Ajax home top.

The top half could be real, the Kingsley bottom is hopefully a wind-up or a promotional joke. Agreed and who would buy it and wear it on match days? It would be a huge commercial risk and O'Neills are very switched on. They did a half home/half away strip last year. It's possible that they are releasing a Kingsley top and that could be a promotional mash-up. I'm still hoping for a return to hoops this year.

Jacobsen fully deserves his spot, but considering QST aren't sending a GC prospect I think it foolish not to pick Cav too. A first week crash could easily bin their whole tour. A similar thought had crossed my mind too. A Covid positive could derail the sprint train. Cav was back to best when winning the British national road title at the weekend. He was aggressive and out-thought his rivals. Lefevre is a stubborn b*****d with a huge ego. Bennett was his number one sprinter last year and he looked embarrassed by Cav's four wins in the Tour. He is not going to risk a repeat this year unless Jacobsen is ill or injured.
