Watching Cavan Sullivan, excitement is tempered by memories of hypetrains past

The 16-year-old Union star isn’t the first wunderkind to be feted by the American soccersphere The trouble with trying not to hype up Cavan Sullivan is that he keeps on doing cool stuff. Like this past weekend, when he scampers along on a Philadelphia Union breakaway, loses his man by stopping so suddenly it’s as if he’s pulled a ripcord, back-heels the cutback behind his standing leg, watches it slowly kiss off the far post and in, and celebrated the goal by bowing and doffing an imaginary top hat to the crowd.

The big transfer stories to follow in final week of summer window

Bradley Barcola, Julián Alvarez, Enzo Fernández and Cody Gakpo could be on the move in the next few days By WhoScored Every transfer window has at least one saga that dominates. Barcola’s potential move to Liverpool has been that story this summer. Given Liverpool are crying out for a right-winger to replace Mohamed Salah, one of their greatest players, it may seem surprising their attention has been fixed on Barcola, who has spent 77% of his minutes at Paris Saint-Germain on the left side of the attack.

Obviously the target is for Arteta to sustain the same appetite and intensity to mount a credible defence. The big questions are whether we can reproduce the same resilience at the back with Saliba on the long-term missing list, and will the introduction of Guimarães be the catalyst for the sort of midfield chemistry we’ll need to carve open opponents who plan to park the bus?
