I don't spend as much time as I used to online tracking news, rumors, etc, but I still visit Ives Galarcep's site pretty regularly for US-related news, and still probably spend too much time tracking player values and other stuff on Transfermarkt. Occasionally check the Daily Mail (trash, I know) and Sky Sports for EPL stuff, usually on game day. Statto for basic stats and analysis. I don't play fantasy soccer, so I'm sure there are lots of good sites out there with stats and player ratings that I've never visited.

 

So...where do y'all go for all things soccer?

I used to follow SkySports pretty heavily, but they have even begun rumor-mongering. I follow Tony Barrett on Twitter for LFC transfer news.

 

A few general rules for transfer rumors:

 

1) Avoid Marca at all costs.

2) Be aware of fake twitter accounts.

3) No, that player probably has not always loved your club.

4) Don't believe anything is a done deal until the player is photographed at your training ground leaning on stuff.

Pretty much. Arsenal is linked with almost every player every year. poo, Nuri Sahin even took a medical, agreed on terms and posed for team picture and Dortmund changed their mind in last minute and Sahin signing did not happen.

Arsen, what sites do you visit? Not so much for rumors, just news, analysis, etc.

I use google and Fox Soccer twitter.

Google: I just type in Arsenal, search and click news button next to images. It gives me all latest news on Arsenal...

I also visit arsenal mania website too see what other arsenal fans are saying. Arsenal mania is very similar to Carolina huddle.

Fox Soccer twitter usually pretty reliable and always twits news and rumors.

Speaking of Marca....

Basically says Carlo and Flo have agreed to go after Suarez even without selling Benzema. While I don't doubt that we're going to at least make a run at Suarez, there's no chance we're keeping Benz if we get him.

While it's Marca, I'd be lying if I said I hadn't been expecting a bid from Real pretty much all year. Bring that paper and we'll ship him out.

ESPNFC

 

Which is weird because other than reading Grantland's articles on TV shows I watch I generally avoid ESPN.

 

Other the that I just read whatever my friend sends me.  I like soccer and Bayern but he is obsessed so anything worthwhile he beats me to it.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
