Official: Everton sign Tyrique George from Chelsea
Tyrique George’s transfer to Everton has been made official today, with the 20-year-old joining on a four-year contract good through 2030. Everton are reportedly paying £24m, though that’s inclusive of the potential £6m in add-ons and bonuses, unlike initially reported (i.e. the fee was initially reported at £24+6m, but it’s instead £18+6m). Still a decent […]
2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Portugal vs. Spain; USA vs. Belgium
It’s the last day of the Round of 16, and it’s the last day of 26 consecutive days of football at the 2026 World Cup. I have no idea what I’m even going to do with myself tomorrow, but we’ll worry about that later. (And that will largely depend on how the USMNT do tonight […]

Hmm Agreed Interesting
England survive the Azteca in instant World Cup classic
In terms of home-field advantage on the international stage, it doesn’t get much greater than Mexico at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. Not only is the support world class, the stadium’s sitting at over 7000 feet above sea level — more than twice as high as the highest point in all of England — […]
Chelsea set £50m asking price for Andrey Santos, with Manchester United keen — report
According to a Guardian exclusive, Manchester United are ‘targeting’ Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos, and are exploring a move with an ‘offer anticipated’ in the near future. No word on how much to anticipate that anticipated offer, but Chelsea are anticipating a number ‘in the region of £50m’. Santos himself is said to be ‘open to […]

2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Brazil vs. Norway; Mexico vs. England
It promises to be a blockbuster day today at the World Cup, with two marquee matchups in the Round of 16. First, it’ll be Vini Jr against Erling Haaland in the early game, as Brazil look to see off upstarts Norway and reach the quarterfinals for the ninth tournament in a row. In fact, only […]
Everton, Chelsea agree £24+6m Tyrique George transfer — report
Tyrique George spent the second half of last season at Everton, impressing the locals in his limited minutes and cameos. But even though his loan included a loan-option, the Toffees would decide to pass. However, they did not want to pass on the player himself. So instead, they’ve now negotiated a separate transfer agreement, which, […]
Cole Palmer to use World Cup snub as motivation for next season
After a fantastic debut season and an excellent sophomore effort, Cole Palmer’s third season in Chelsea Blue was a bit of a disaster. Injuries hit, form dropped, and he never could quite reach the heady heights that we’ve come to expect from him. Though he still hit double-digits in goals, he was less “Cold” Palmer […]
2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Canada vs. Morocco; Paraguay vs. France
And then, there were 16. The Round of 32 served up some quality entertainment, but it may have saved its best for last, specifically the game between Argentina and Cape Verde. It was a battle for the ages, between the defending champions and one of the smallest countries to ever qualify for the World Cup. […]
The Daily Hilario: First pitch
Throwing out the ceremonial first pitch is a nice little tradition before every baseball game, and last night, the entire US Men’s National Team got to do so for the Seattle Mariners, ahead of Monday’s Round of 16 match against Belgium (the football stadium is across the street from the baseball stadium, incidentally). Mauricio Pochettino […]
Official: Real Madrid ‘categorically deny’ any speculation regarding Enzo Fernández
Enzo Fernández’s agent, former PSG man Javier Pastore, made a big show — and not for the first time — of his client’s potential move to Real Madrid with a couple interviews this week. The first time he did it, Enzo ended up copping a fine and an in-house suspension from Chelsea for some rather […]
Granit Xhaka rejects Chelsea, ‘will be staying’ at Sunderland — report
Granit Xhaka was supposedly all giddy about the possibility of reuniting with his old manager, Xabi Alonso at Chelsea, but apparently that was just a bit of Casa Amor dalliance, and he’s now realized that his heart is truly with Sunderland. According to a Sky Sports exclusive, the 33-year-old midfielder “will be staying” after “reaffirming […]
2026 World Cup, Round of 32: Australia vs. Egypt; Argentina vs. Cape Verde; Colombia vs. Ghana
We’ve come to the final day of Round of 32 matches, with three more on tap, including the defending champions (including Enzo Fernández and Valentín Barco). Yesterday, Spain made short work of Austria (Marc Cucurella with a couple assists!), Switzerland got past Algeria quite easily, and Portugal (for whom Pedro Neto started and played about […]
The Daily Hilario: Come out to the coast…
I’m still buzzing from the win Wednesday night, as epic of a football match as any I’ve got to see live and in person. Levi’s may not be my favorite stadium, but it made for a good ol’ time despite the $30 beers. Now it’s time for the long July 4th Independence Day weekend, and […]
Enzo Fernández looking to leave Chelsea as he ‘demands things the club can’t provide’
It’s no secret that Enzo Fernández is looking to leave Chelsea this summer, with his agent, former PSG player Javier Pastore, making his client’s intentions clear several times now in the last few months. Much to Pastore’s frustration, overt interest in Enzo has been slow to materialize however. Obviously, there are only a handful of […]
2026 World Cup, Round of 32: Spain vs. Austria; Portugal vs. Croatia; Switzerland vs. Algeria
Yesterday was long, exhausting, and glorious. Woke up at 6am to catch the early train down to the Bay. Walked around for a couple hours after getting there, had some lunch, a few drinks. Got to the stadium early to beat the rush; nice and leisurely. Watched the US win 2-0 despite two offside goals, […]

Chaotic Wow Where is this money coming from?
Official: Chelsea sign Marco Palestra from Atalanta
Over the last few years Marc Cucurella dominated the left flank of Chelsea’s defence, up until moving to Real Madrid and now trying to play poacher for them instead of focusing on Spain’s World Cup efforts. Yet we haven’t made the “Marc” spot empty from next season on, with Chelsea signing Marco Palestra from Italian […]
2026 World Cup, Round of 32: England vs. DR Congo; Belgium vs. Senegal; USA vs. Bosnia & Herzegovina
Well, here’s the big day for local interest in the first knockout round: both England and the USA in action. The nations are expecting, on both sides of the Atlantic. I will be at the US game in Santa Clara, and I’m quite excited for that. LFG! ENGLAND vs. DR CONGO On paper, this looks […]

Moisés Caicedo’s Ecuador lose to Mexico in Round of 32
Moisés Caicedo’s first game as the official captain of the Ecuador national football team did not turn out the way he would have wanted to, coming out on the losing end of a 2-0 defeat against Mexico, who thus advance to the Round of 16. Ecuador are going home, earlier than they would have liked […]
Chelsea ‘open talks’ with Rayo Vallecano for Pep Chavarría — reports
Chelsea look set to significantly revamp out options at full back for next season. Marc Cucurella has gone; Malo Gusto could follow. Marco Palestra is set to come in, as are Valentín Barco and Geovany Quenda, both of whom could play wing-back if needed. But that may not be needed, with Chelsea apparently also working […]
Everton ‘progressing in talks’ to sign Tyrique George from Chelsea — report
Tyrique George spent the second half of last season on loan at Everton, and while the Toffees liked him well enough, they didn’t really give him (m)any minutes. So it was entirely unsurprising when they also opted to forgo their option to make the deal permanent. But it would appear that Everton have not given […]
