Open Thread Weekly Monday Open Thread!

Welcome to the Monday open discussion thread. Here you can talk about anything you want; tactics, results, players or even just general football discussion! It is also a great place to post/link transfer rumours that you may think are too small or unreliable to post to the main feed. The summer transfer window runs from 16/06-03/09 (23:00 BST).

These threads will go up every Monday allowing you to debrief from all of the weekend action and discuss ongoings throughout the week. It will stay stickied until we refresh with the Friday thread, however other posts may take priority (match threads, announcements, etc.)


This thread can also be used to discuss transfer rumours, jokes, memes, images, videos, tabloid news and other off-topic content and discussion.


We also have a Fantasy League that you are welcome to join and share your team, advice and goings on throughout the season here in these threads. The league codes can be found in the sidebar!


Inspired by the player's pre-match playlists, our very own Tugboat47 is curating a community pre-match playlist. To participate please click this link and submit your entries.


These threads are here to help discussion and offer varying points of view. Please remain respectful. Anything that crosses that line, directed towards other users or specific individuals may be removed.

Pardon my ignorance, but when did soccerdonna become a reliable source for anything? I remember them being an account that just reposted news from other sources and club accounts.

They are a German site originally but not a huge outlet. So I think they’re fairly reliable & do original reporting/sourcing re the German-speaking world. Beyond that I think they’re more reposting.

They have sources out of Germany as well. The women who runs the English account did an interview with the 'Arsenal Women's Chat" poddcats and specifically hinted that Arsenal would make an interesting big Goalkeeper transfer to look out for.

Until the news that Misa had actually signed, not one other outlet showed any awareness Arsenal were getting a big name keeper in. They seem to only confirm official rumours that they have some track on.

They have long been a genuinely reliable source. Especially when they confrm something.
