Flick has called up a player from Barça’s fourth team for the pre-season tour. Who is Dro? For the summer tour, Barcelona’s coach has brought in eight academy players, with the biggest surprise being Pedro Fernández a.k.a. Dro. According to Gerard Romero, he has been the breakout star of the first week of training and earned an immediate call-up to the Asian tour. Not Jan Virgili — his positional rival, whose involvement initially seemed almost guaranteed. Pedro is 17, with a Galician father and a Filipino mother. He began his development more centrally but has often been deployed closer to the left flank — something that likely caught Flick’s eye. Regardless of his position, Pedro constantly looks to get on the ball, making intelligent runs between the lines. Dro’s technique was shaped from childhood on futsal courts and is now impeccable. His first coach noted a resemblance to Thiago Alcântara, even suggesting that Pedro’s vision might be even greater.

Good morning from Chloe Kelly, who sent the England women's team to the Euro final. A winning goal in the 119th minute, a *calma* celebration, and then she even leaned on the corner flag like royalty. Somewhere, Thierry and Cris smiled. 🛑

"Arsenal" has unveiled another nostalgic kit – with references to thunder, lightning, and the 1995/96 season. And thanks to Sports Illustrated, it was revealed that there have been quite a few jerseys in the club's history that used a zigzag pattern in one way or another.

Great point! 👏 The midfield overload from a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 can definitely choke a 4-4-2’s central duo. But I think a 4-4-2 with dynamic fullbacks could work under the right conditions. If the fullbacks push forward aggressively and support the wingers, it creates width and compensates for the lack of bodies in midfield. Think of fullbacks like Trent or Robertson in Liverpool’s prime — they stretch the opposition’s defense and open up space for counters. That said, the 4-4-2’s vulnerability remains: if the opponent uses high pressing or shuts down the flanks, fullbacks might get caught out, leaving gaps in defense. Against modern setups with three midfielders or a false 9, you need near-perfect discipline and fitness. I reckon 4-4-2 could shine as a counter-attacking formation against top teams, but against compact mid-table sides, it risks being too predictable.

One of the main reasons coaches shy away from the 4-4-2 formation is the lack of numerical advantage in the central midfield. Against teams employing three central midfielders, such as in a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1, an opponent's use of 4-4-2 often results in the former having a numerical edge in the center, making it significantly harder to maintain control and dictate the game's tempo

Another reminder: “financial galaxy” isn’t just a figure of speech — it’s the very real state of the Premier League. Out of the ten most expensive summer transfers so far, nine are from the PL. In the top 20, fifteen belong to the league. Here’s the current top 5: 1. Florian Wirtz – to Liverpool for €125M 2. Matheus Cunha – to Man United for €74.2M 3. Martín Zubimendi – to Arsenal for €70M 4. Jamie Bynoe-Gittens – to Chelsea for €64.3M 5. Mohammed Kudus – to Tottenham for €63.8M La Liga has four deals in the top 20 (three of them by Real Madrid and Atlético). The Bundesliga is currently last — Malik Tillman joined Bayer from PSV for €35M. This top 5 might change soon: United are close to signing Bryan Mbeumo, and Liverpool are nearing a deal for Hugo Ekitike.

Still praising Almería and Macron. The third kit, inspired by flamenco, definitely deserves attention — just like the away one.
