There wasn’t much to be concerned about coming out of Tottenham Hotspur’s 2-0 away friendly win over QPR today at Loftus Road. Spurs handled a step up in competition compared to Wednesday’s match against Hearts and looked decent with significant rotation against a Championship side. All in all, a good day’s work before Spurs fly out to Asia next week for their international tour.

Postecoglou: Lucas Bergvall injury “not significant”

Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson is set to miss the start of the 2024-25 Premier League season with a back injury, according to Chris Waugh of The Athletic. Wilson’s injury could also have an impact on Newcastle’s transfer plans, as the Magpies were thinking about adding a new forward... but only if they could complete the sale of Callum. With his fitness questionable and this injury in place, it’s going to be hard to sell him for any sizable amount of money, let alone the fact that he’s entering the final season under contract giving even more leverage to the potential suitors to offer even less money.

We’ve seen only a few snippets of the work that’s been going on at the training ground so far, but the one thing that was immediately apparent was Enzo Maresca’s very much hands-on style.

Cats of Kansas City

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.

One of these six spectacular cats may be your next pet
