HAALAND’S RETURN! Erling Haaland’s arrival at Man. City has made them MATCH’s favourites for the CL trophy this season! The Norwegian net-buster hasn’t had to waitlong to face his former side, with City being drawn alongside Borussia Dortmund, while Pep Guardiola also knows Sevilla well from his time in charge of La Liga club Barcelona!

MIKELOYA RZABAL REAL SOCIEDAD It feels like Oyarzabal has been around forever but he’s still only 25 years old! The Real Sociedad club captain was involved in four goals in six Europa League games last season and is also their penalty taker, so he’ll have his eyes on the tourno’s Golden Boot! WHYWATCH HIM? The winger has a battle on his hands to be named in Luis Enrique’s Spain squad for this year’s World Cup, which means he’s gonna be well motivated to impress! JOE RODON RENNES Rennes snapped up the Wales star on a loan with an option to buy so, providing he has a good season, it’s pretty likely that we won’t see him back in a Spurs shirt next summer! He was desperate for first-team footy after…

Arsenal Best signing: Gabriel Jesus Verdict: Persuading Jesus and Zinchenko to leave Prem champions Man. City for Europa League footy was a masterstroke by the Arsenal bosses in our eyes. They’re elite-level ballers! Grade: AstonVilla Best signing: Philippe Coutinho Verdict: Signing Coutinho permanently was the top priority, but the additions of free transfer Kamara and Carlos went under the radar. It’s just a shame the CB got injured straight away! Grade: Bournemouth Best signing: Marcus Tavernier Verdict: Tavernier has slotted straight into midfield, while Argentina international Senesi could have a huge season! We’re still not sure they’ve added enough quality to stay up though… Grade: Brentford Best signing: Mikkel Damsgaard Verdict: The Bees lost Eriksen but replaced him with a younger Danish baller in Damsgaard! He’ll be an awesome signing,…

West Ham Third Shirt 2022-23 There have been some sizzling shirts launched over the summer, but none hotter than the West Ham third jersey – it looks like it could actually be on fire!

United Third Shirt 2022-23 TheMan. United third shirt’s official colour is “Slime Green”, which isn’t the most appealing of colours!

Spurs superstar! Here’s Tottenham fan Harry with last season's completed wallchart and this year’s one in his hands. Great work! Summer style!

Spurs fan Tristan is gonna see his tracker every time he wants something from the fridge! Bayern baller! MATCH subscriber Arthur spent hours putting the tabs perfectly into place!
