What is the NWSL salary cap gonna look like given that they have so much more TV money? I think it's something like $5m per team per year.

Gemma was officially presented today at a press conference, and the Norwegian FA bought out her contract with Wales for £100,000. She'll make £180,000 per year as the new Norwegian head coach and will get bonuses if she gets us to championships, with the Euro bonus being £25,000. She's going to remain living in Leeds and will commute frequently to Norway and she'll bring an assistant coach with her to the team. NRK asked some Welsh journalists about what we can expect of her before the presser. quote:For most Norwegians, Grainger is a completely undescribed leaf. Then the big question is: I'm... cautiously optimistic. I know absolutely nothing about her so we'll see what she does against Croatia. Also she's a Middelsbrough fan.

https://twitter.com/GuardianUS/status/1745425604743442443 Very weird to see Hansen at #7 and Smith at #18. Both were really good in the league but godawful at World Cup. Horan should be higher. The French seem to be underrated, they were really good and their clubs are always good in the European cups.

Breakdowns by league, so long as I didn't fat finger any. It sums to 100, at least: England- 31 Spain- 24 France - 15 America - 12 Germany - 11 Italy - 4 Mexico - 2 Japan -1 Barcelona has 15 players in the top 100. Which, yeah, they're an amazing team but lol. Not as funny as Farcenal with 10 and Chelsea at 8, though.

She seems to treat Leeds as a base and intends to fly a lot in Europe to attend matches so I look forward to the headlines decrying her expensive travel habits in a year or two if she fails to get us to a couple championships.

I'm sure the logistics are possible, I just think that managing a national team should see you immerse yourself in that country a bit more than being based in Leeds still is going to permit.

Current Barca squad is pretty much galacticos-era Real. World class player at every single position. Their goal difference is 20 in their CL group. Outside of a slim chance of them playing two subpar games against Chelsea or Lyon they're absolutely getting to the final. Grimson posted:They put Earps at #9 and Endler at #49, lol.

Maybe he's saying the asset is valuable and can make money but dodging whether he thinks the sport itself is any good?

And also, after getting Gorry and Mewis this transfer window, West Ham are losing 0-2 to Birmingham. This is only League Cup but they have to improve and fast if they want to stay in the WSL.

MADRID (AP) — Former Spanish soccer president Luis Rubiales will face trial for kissing forward Jenni Hermoso without her consent at the Women’s World Cup, an investigative judge said on Thursday. Judge Francisco de Jorge ruled that his probe points to Rubiales’ kiss “being unconsented and carried out unilaterally and in a surprising fashion,” the court said. State prosecutors have accused Rubiales of sexual assault and for allegedly coercing Hermoso to publicly support him in the public backlash against him. Despite initially claiming he was the victim of a campaign led by “false feminists,” Rubiales eventually resigned from his post for his behavior during the World Cup awards ceremony in Sydney in August. He has denied any wrongdoing. The judge also ruled that along with Rubiales, former Spain coach Jorge Vilda, sports director of Spain’s men’s team Albert Luque, and the federation former head of marketing should be tried for allegedly pressuring Hermoso to defend Rubiales, a step she refused to take. The trial date will be determined. Hermoso testified before the investigative judge in January. The 33-year-old forward, Spain's all-time leading scorer who plays in the Mexican league, has been widely supported in the country. The kiss scandal has many hoping it will spur a reckoning with sexism in sports. Based on a sexual consent law passed in 2022, Rubiales could face a fine or a prison sentence of one to four years if found guilty, according to the prosecutors’ office in Madrid. The new law eliminated the difference between “sexual harassment” and “sexual assault,” sanctioning any unconsented sexual act. FIFA banned Rubiales for three years until after the men’s 2026 World Cup. His ban will expire before the next women’s tournament in 2027. Spain's sports authority also ruled him unfit to hold a post in sports management for three years.
