He added: I’m really pleased Adam Wharton has got in. I really like the Crystal Palace midfielder. I’ve said before he knows the responsibilities and discipline required of a midfielder and has real quality. Kobbie Mainoo is good on the ball but Wharton has greater understanding of the position.
In Wharton, Mainoo and Cole Palmer you have three young players who have seized their chance and are full of confidence, but Palmer will give his manager a major headache. England’s real strength is in their firepower. Gareth is blessed in the forward positions but I just sense Palmer, if he can replicate his Chelsea form, will give a performance, maybe from the bench, that will make it very difficult to leave him out. I believe it came down to a straight choice between P…

Barcelona are looking to sell Manchester United-linked striker Vitor Roque after taking the No. 19 shirt away from him, according to reports.

Casemiro is reportedly set to start the season for Manchester United despite being mauled in the media at the back end of last season, given they are failing to get Manuel Ugarte through the door.
Five-time Champions League winner Casemiro is clearly a fantastic footballer, and one of the best midfielders of his generation. But at the back end of last season, at United, he was shoddy at best.
It was put best by Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher at the time: I m deadly serious – his agent, the team of people around him, they need to tell him: this has to stop.
I am nowhere near on a level of what that man has achieved, [winning] Champions Leagues, playing for Brazil and Real Madrid. But I always remember something when I retired myself, and there was a saying …

Atletico reportedly had a £34million bid accepted by last week, with young striker Samu Omorodion expected to move the other way in a separate deal.
The Blues deal to sign Omorodion fell through, however, and has cast massive doubt over Gallagher s proposed move to the Spanish capital.
There have been reports of Gallagher training on his own while the two clubs work out what the hell is going on.
A full agreement appears to hinge on Chelsea signing an Atletico player and they are repor…
Liverpool have identified Rennes full-back Adrien Truffert as a potential long-term replacement for the popular Andy Robertson at left-back.
The Scottish international is still the first-choice left-back under Arne Slot, although it’s no secret that he isn’t exactly getting any younger.

Richarlison has dropped a hint ahead of the North London derby over who may be starting for Tottenham in a major boost for Ange Postecoglou s side.
Spurs take on Arsenal on Sunday afternoon at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium and much has been made of the Gunners selection concerns.
Declan Rice s suspension and injuries to Martin Odegaard and new signing Mikel Merino have left them light in midfield, though Tottenham have injury problems of their own, with doubts over the fitness of Yves Bissouma, Richarlison and Dominic Solanke.
Solanke – signed for £65m from Bournemouth in the summer – has missed the last two games with an ankle injury that also meant he wasn t considered for Lee Carsley s first England squad.

Former Everton chairman Keith Wyness reckons Dan Friedkin s takeover of the Premier League club will be done in mid-November .
The Friedkin Group has reached agreement .
The group, led by the American billionaire Friedkin, had entered a period of exclusivity to negotiate a possible purchase in June, before Everton in July said that no deal would be struck between the parties.
