Alonso's already got Chelsea's pre-season locked in tighter than his tactical system will be come August—early mover advantage, or overthinking before a ball's even kicked.  •  Spending £34m on a goalkeeper when your defence needs life support is pure Chelsea, the same club that forgot defending exists somewhere between Stamford Bridge and the training ground.  •  Jayden Adams' death is a tragedy that demands respect, not column inches—our condolences to his family and South African football.  •  Muharemovic to Leeds for €40m is a decent bit of business if he can stay fit, which is admittedly a bigger ask than asking Leeds to stay in the Championship.  •  Spain have the players to dethrone France, but semi-finals aren't won on paper—they're won by sides that want it more, and right now that's anyone's to lose.
