- Off topic chat - non-football discussion is for Free Talk Friday, and you can use the dedicated subreddits to discuss FIFA/EAFC games, Football Manager, fantasy football etc
- Discussion of ongoing matches - that is what match threads are for. We may be less strict for matches of teams that are less in the spotlight, and may not have as active match threads
- Harassment and brigading - including links to posts in other subreddits or to other users' comments
- Advice on betting - you may discuss outcomes of bets you have made, but we do not seek to actively encourage gambling
- Meta discussion - we have a strict stance. This is because it derails discussion, and can lead to harassment and witch hunts - and we prefer you to contact the mods via Modmail If you have queries over moderation or post removals. Some meta discussion may be allowed in the DDT, if any meta conversation was productive and in good faith - we can take a "case by case approach". In general, however Modmail remains the first port of call, and other meta discussion will be removed.
- Complaining about bans in this or other subreddits - use the relevant Modmail, instead
The moderation team will remove comments that violate those rules and ban offenders.
Please report comments you think that break such rules, but more than anything else, remember the human. The Internet is full of places to discuss football in bad faith. This community tries to be an exception.

News Gastón Edul: Julián Álvarez will stay at Atlético Madrid this window. He has rejected several offers, driven by his firm refusal to live in England and his desire to join Barça. This story is likely to run until January.
soydelmillo.comThe matter is settled: Julián Álvarez confirms his future after Barcelona offer
Gastón Edul put an end to the speculation and revealed where La Araña will continue his career.
Julián Álvarez has put an end to the speculation after emerging as Barcelona’s top target in the transfer market. Faced with Atlético Madrid’s firm stance, he has confirmed that he will remain at the club for another season under Diego Simeone. Gastón Edul revealed the news on Tuesday morning, bringing a pause to the transfer saga that had kept all of Europe and Argentina on edge.
In recent days, Julián Álvarez had been pushing to continue his career at Barcelona. However, Atlético Madrid’s hierarchy remained inflexible and refused to budge. They rejected every offer from Barcelona for the former River player, leaving a move to the Premier League as the only remaining option for the World Cup winner.
However, the striker put the brakes on that possibility and rejected a move to Arsenal.
“Julián Álvarez will remain at Atlético Madrid. It is a ‘personal’ decision he has made after rejecting not only Arsenal, but also other offers. Today, he is training with the team. Once the rest of the players finish, he will have an individual session with Luis Piñedo to catch up with the squad,” journalist Belén Sánchez García confirmed.
The news was not limited to reports from Spain. Gastón Edul, the journalist who closely follows the Argentina national team, also confirmed that La Araña will not be moving elsewhere in the short term.
“Julián Álvarez will remain at Atlético Madrid during this summer transfer window,” the journalist said on Tuesday morning.
When will Julián Álvarez’s future change?
According to ESPN, the saga between Julián and Barcelona will have more chapters in the coming months, meaning he will have to keep waiting for the chance to play alongside Lamine Yamal and Raphinha.
“Barcelona has already informed the Argentine that it will only resume attempts to sign him in the next transfer window. At this point, it seems practically impossible for Julián to leave Atlético Madrid, so he would remain at the club for at least the next six months,” the outlet reported.

News Jose Mourinho imposes strict new rules at Real Madrid with harsh fines. The days when the nutritionist was at the players' service are also over; now it's the other way around. They no longer eat what they want, but what they are told.
sports.yahoo.com"Mourinho has eliminated the €200 or €300 fines for being late to training because he considers them ridiculous for people who earn millions," Diaz explained.
The manager has also changed expectations surrounding injured players, as recovery is no longer something players will manage independently away from the club whenever they choose.
"The days of getting injured and recovering wherever you please are over, and if you need to continue your recovery in the afternoon, you work at Valdebebas," explains the senior journalist
Furthermore, nutrition has come under similar scrutiny. Rather than players deciding what they want to eat, Mourinho has placed greater emphasis on following the club's nutritional instructions.
