No really, some busker strumming a guitar in the Sky Sports News studio while etc, and so on. After a near relentless onslaught of media buzzwords, hype and assorted reputable (and thoroughly disreputable) transfer insiders announcing they “understand” things, the summer transfer window is finally shut . But what’s that Football Daily can see pressed up against the glass? The out-of-joint nose of an apoplectic David Moyes. If you’d told me back in the golden era of Serie A in the 1990s that it would eventually become a dumping ground for underperforming (or past their best in the case of John Stones) Premier League players, judging by Tuesday’s front page of La Gazzetta dello Sport , then I wouldn’t have believed you. And if you’d told me in January that Donyell Malen, who scored seven goals in 35 Premier League games for Aston Villa before going on loan to Roma, would already be on 19 goals in 20 Serie A games, I definitely wouldn’t have believed you” – Noble Francis. Looks like Argentina have lined up James Maddison to replace Lionel Messi. That is if a street artist in Mumbai (yesterday’s Quote of the Day) can be believed” – Vaughan Wilkinson.

The Guardian FootballWhich footballer has had the most glittering club career? | The Knowledge
Plus: brothers playing in England’s top four tiers, shirt-hogging sponsors, and goalkeepers sent off upfield Mail us with your all of your questions and answers “Marquinhos won his 40th trophy in club football when Paris Saint-Germain beat Aston Villa in the Super Cup,” notes Paul Gage. “Has any player won more?” The short answer is no: here’s Pete Tomlin with the breakdown. “I calculate that Marquinhos has actually won 41 trophies – one Copa Libertadores, 11 Ligue 1 titles, eight Coupes de France, six Coupes de la Ligue, 10 Trophées des Champions, two Champions Leagues, two Super Cups and one Intercontinental Cup.” Not a bad haul. “This puts him at No 1 in the list of club trophies won by a player. Just behind is Lionel Messi with 40 (10 La Ligas, 7 Copas Del Rey, 7 Supercopas de España, four Champions Leagues, three Super Cups, three Club World Cups, two Ligue 1 titles, one Trophées des Champions, one MLS Cup, one Supporters Shield and one Leagues Cup).

The Guardian FootballFootball connects communities but can pull them apart if governed carelessly | Cath Bishop
Sport is a space to help youngsters to develop character, resilience and confidence, but we need stronger leadership and safer environments to make this happen The fight for the soul of football isn’t just happening in the offices of Uefa and Fifa, it’s taking place on pitches much closer to home. At the weekend games of football for 750 children aged five to six in Scotland were cancelled because of severe behavioural issues within the ironically named “Fun 4s” programme. Seventy-two red cards were handed out in the first week of the season. Accounts describe adults displaying aggression, intimidation and head-butting as if it’s the “wild west”. This isn’t just a Scottish problem. Contacts I speak to in different roles around football confirm and almost accept that “youth football is atrocious”. This should be sounding major alarm bells, for the consequences go way beyond the pitch. The existing disciplinary systems and PR campaigns are not nearly enough to address and change the situation.

The Guardian Football‘In my heart until I die’: Argentina says a tearful thank you to Lionel Messi
The Argentinian’s decision to quit international football was met by an outpouring of affection from the country he led to World Cup glory in 2022 Anyone who was present at Lionel Scaloni’s press conference immediately after the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina in New Jersey on 19 July and saw his tears, the sobs which prevented him from speaking while he got up and walked out, could tell this was a man weeping not because of defeat in a single match but because he was fully aware that what that particular group of men had been through for the past eight years had come to an end. Messi’s announcement that he is retiring from international football , posted on Instagram on Monday complete with photos of three handwritten sheets of some anonymous yet corporate-looking headed paper and a Harry Potter Time Turner pen, to the soundtrack of Brindis sung by Soledad Pastorutti , instantly dominated the news and unleashed a barrage of homages, gratitude and joy from all corners. But it’s not exactly a surprise. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballBarcelona breeze past Rayo but all eyes in Spain remain on Julián Álvarez
Hansi Flick is very happy to welcome Gabriel Jesus to Barcelona – but Julián Álvarez remains the ultimate prize If Raphinha has any misgivings about playing as a makeshift No 9 for Barcelona, he is doing a good job of hiding it. Julián Álvarez would have been proud of the Brazilian’s two neat finishes that inspired the Spanish champions to a 5-2 victory against Rayo Vallecano on Monday night, 24 hours before the transfer deadline. Lamine Yamal scored two wonderful goals of his own in a performance that reassured everyone he is back to his best. Add Anthony Gordon to the mix – impressive again in his link-up play – and you have a fluid, fearsome front three. Yet after the departures of Ferran Torres, Robert Lewandowski and Marcus Rashford this summer, there is no doubt Barcelona not only still want a centre-forward but require one – at least one. Hansi Flick was very happy to see Gabriel Jesus, an £8.6m arrival from Arsenal, in the stands. “He’s a top striker,” the coach said. But Atlético Madrid’s Álvarez is the ultimate prize.
