I have been on this site for around a year now and I have to say, I am sometimes left flabbergasted at how much Ed002 knows way before the media catches wind of it:
1) Talked about the European Super League way before the Der Spiegel Football leaks.
2) Told us that Barcelona are looking to sell Umtiti, which was difficult for me to believe at first.
3) Talked about Mane being a target of Real under Zidane which the media has caught wind of only now. (France Football, Marca, El Confidencial)
4) Talked about Griezmann being a target of PSG if Neymar or Mbappe left which the papers have discussed in the last month. (Diario AS)
5) Knew about Bakayoko moving to Chelsea way before anyone else knew about it.
6) Told us about Real's interest in Junior Firpo before the Madrid-based papers even caught a sniff of it.
I don't know how you know these things Ed, but your info is invaluable to the football community.
{Ed002's Note - You are very sweet.}

It's just amazing, isn't it? :)

I’ll be honest I thought Ed002 was a nutter when he was saying Pogba wanted to leave United when he was in great form and as Solskjaer was starting his revolution. I didn’t see why on earth he would want to leave and now it’s all come out that he wants to leave. Guess I should trust her even more .

For those of a certain vintage on the site, you'll know Ed002 mapped out Mata's move to Liverpool breaking down and Arsenal also failing to sign him before Sky even tried to report it. They also said Mata would join Chelsea about a week before the deal was announced.

I enjoyed knowing we were signing some bloke called Azipilicueta a year in advance.
Mata was good too.

Dave was my personal favourite! Everyone was raving about us signing Van Der Weil and Ed told us we have interest in Azpilicueta (who? ) - awesome knowledge and what an awesome player he’s been for us.
