Direct symptom of financial doping : inflation in the transfer market.
Easy to look serious with that squad available. It’s been built to win on all fronts. So we should expect this.

Cody Bellinger? Sounds like a defensive mid (center) fielder with no attacking game whatsoever.
A superb footballer and a very decent human being.

German/American David Wagner takes charge at Norwich City...

Good luck to him. Norwich seem to be a fairly well run club, and they've got some decent talent for this level. Like most of the division, they're only a few points off the playoff positions, so he's in with a shout."
He'll have another American on the team, Forward/Winger Josh Sargent.
David Wagner Takes Charge Over Norwich and Sargent
German-American coach David Wagner has officially been given the reigns at Norwich City FC, and will become the third head coach for USMNT forward Josh Sargent at the Championship promotion hopeful…

Good game for Wednesday. They deserved to win--they took the chances they were given and took the fight to Newcastle. Also, the linesmen were terrible! Each team scored a goal that was clearly offside.
The game also highlights what Newcastle fans have been saying for some time now, there is no depth to this squad. Once we are past our starting 11, the quality just nosedives. As much as I love this run of form from the lads, I think a CL place might do more harm than good. I just don't see the current group staying fit enough to run multiple campaigns at once. We need reinforcements!

Looks like it's gonna get really painful for Chelsea fans before it gets better. I'd like to think Potter will stay on but given they canned Tuchel despite his credentials...
Conversely City seem to have lucked out with Chelsea who has allowed them to gain momentum.
Congrats to Stevange and Sheff Wed for their giant killing.

No quadruple for Pep then. Maybe a calculated loss to play less games and launch an assault on the league. Congrats to Nathan Jones for managing to make the champions not have a single shot on target. Incredible performance from Soton
And congrats to Steve Cooper for getting Forest into the semis. I'd be really chuffed if anon top 6 club won it but that's unlikely. Looks like ETH is set for a trophy in his first season
In other news, Chelsea paying £21m to borrow a player for 6 months and Athleti paying €126m for him is everything that's wrong with contemporary football transfers
