I hope Mudryk is watching and doesn't give Chelsea any further thought

Stevenage scoring two in the last two minutes of regular time to beat Villa.

I thought Stevanage was the goalscorer and went to check who he plays for.

It's the magic of the FA Cup, learning who actually is a team lol.

I remember as a kid, wondering why London didn’t have a team.

There could be something in that.

I love the FA Cup, so much fun when soccer powerhouses get upended and humiliated by non-powerhouses! INJECT IT INTO MY VEINS

Surely only because of his intolerance for poor results though. No way they can be upset that there’s no investment, because they’ve spent a lot of money already, never mind what’s rumoured.

I like Potter and I think he’s a good coach.

Sounds like Chelsea are getting Jaoa Felix on loan.

Hopefully they back off Mudryk now and Arsenal can get that wrapped up.

sounds like Weghorst to United on loan is going to get done, once Besiktas can figure out his replacement. Can't say I'm all too thrilled about it or that I particularly like Weghorst as an option, but they desperately need another option up front and Weghorst offers an element that they don't have right now. I'd still prefer signing someone like Thuram, but it seems like they are only doing loans this January ... so as a stop-gap option until the season, fine. Better prepare to sign a proper striker in the summer though.

Plus I'm firmly in the "whatever Erik wants to do" camp. He's been unbelievably quick to earn my full trust as a manager, so if he thinks he can make this work, then I'm all for it.

Chelsea look to have secured a loan for Joao Felix for £11M.

I guess if it helps them nab a top 4 spot thats a good bit of business. I didnt read if there were any purchase conditions or clauses, looks like its a straight temp loan.

He's propping up the Dutch economy by getting his buddies some fat Man U paycheques...

That being said though, for a stop-gap solution I think it'll work out well for you.

He is a giant target to hit and when he's on his game he is exceptional in the box. He's a lot of man to try and move.

It's a miracle lol - Also, I see that Saints have signed a guy names Carlos Alcaraz and I had to do a double-check to ensure it wasn't the Spanish tennis star who won the US Open last September.

Nottingham also through on penalties.

Man United, Newcastle, Southampton and Nottingham in the semis.

Southampton v Newcastle
Forest v United

Two legs. First team at home for first leg.

I presume Forest will be without Henderson.

How are they not offside with FFP? I know that FFP is essentially meaningless and all that, but come on. I think they've spent something like 340m since Boehly and them bought (and his company is apparently backed by the Saudis).
