Trossard leaves Arsenal a Premier League winner after one season—not exactly the narrative either side imagined when they signed him.  •  The USWNT getting Spain twice is smart scheduling; nothing focuses a team like playing the best in back-to-back windows.  •  Argentina's vice-president dragging England into a political tirade before a World Cup match is exactly the kind of noise that gets in players' heads and costs games.  •  Charlton tying down their trio quietly suggests they've actually found something worth keeping, which in the Championship is half the battle.  •  Ugarte's knee surgery before the season's barely started is the sort of timing that makes you wonder if United's injury luck is cursed or just statistically due.
