The FA will investigate a banner displayed by Crystal Palace fans showing Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis holding a gun to the head of midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White. The banner was displayed in the Lower Holmesdale Stand, where the Holmesdale Fanatics supporters’ group sits, at Selhurst Park during Sunday's Premier League game between the sides. On the banner, Gibbs-White is shown with a speech bubble next to him reading: "Mr Marinakis is not involved in blackmail, match-fixing, drug trafficking or corruption!" Marinakis has always strongly denied any wrongdoing in relation to these allegations. More here: nytimes.com/athletic/6572365…

Manchester United being blamed for the devaluing of Alejandro Garnacho makes me laugh. It has nothing to do with them, it never has. They are a poor selling club historically, that's the only relevance there. The conversation between Ruben Amorim & Garnacho was briefed to the press by Garnacho's camp, not the club. A player being for sale, does not devalue them. We've seen countless examples of this. If Garnacho was out of contract in a year or on crazy wages, maybe those people saying this would have a point - but he isn't. The club has the whip hand & do not have to sell him if a very fair asking price isn't met. His ego & recidivism is a far bigger issue than being given credit for - it's why suitors haven't been knocking the door down all summer.

With the sale of Ben Doak to Bournemouth for £25m, Liverpool will have made £102.6m from Doak, Jarell Quansah, Caoimhín Kelleher, Tyler Morton, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Nat Phillips this summer. Six players they paid a total of... £600k for.

Man United could be about to pay £112m for Carlos Baleba. Those dinnerladies must've been getting paid an absolute fortune.

Hearing from fellow big accounts and the cartel group, that price reveals are starting tomorrow. 👀 They’ve been told to keep it quiet but I’m someone who cares about the community and want to keep you in the loop as much as possible.

Prob obvious, but the main component of the FPL price is the performance last season. So someone who overperformed in 24/25 will be overpriced and vice versa. Makes the likes of Foden, Solanke & Gordon very interesting #FPL

FPL Tip for newbies and people trying to achieve a decent rank. Stick with the 'peloton' in the opening weeks, nothing maverick. Find your 2/3 differentials and then slowly move away from the pack #FPL

Arsenal have done well to flood the media with bids on Noni Madueke & Viktor Gyökeres in the hours since Thomas Partey was charged. I can't be the only one to find this extraordinarily convenient.
