in fairness they're doing alright without him

Doctor Bojan_ so some stories about Miki are he doesn't train well others (the one and only one I read) is that he is the first one there and one of the last to leave. And it's more to do with him going on national duty while not fully fit then coming back with a small knock them sucked in the first half of the derby.

What do you think it is?

The latter seems more likely to me.

I was turned down for ER, they were insistent I needed a thing called a "license". Fuddy Duddy's!

To be fair asking that young, gorgeous female patient to take off her shirt to examine a broken toe probably was against some medical code of conduct.

klose has retired, and is now working towards his coaching badges.

unremarkable footballer with remarkable scoring.

 

[Jatz]

Unremarkable footballer who was secretly remarkable. His international record was/is immense.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Similar to Pippo Inzaghi.

Doesnt Klose hold the record for most World Cup goals?

 

[NTRabbit]

Doesnt Klose hold the record for most World Cup goals?

Yes, with 16, and genuine Ronaldo on 15. The only player within shouting distance who is still playing is Muller on 10

How?

 

[moomba]

How?

You get prize money for wins, draws, qualifying for groups/later stages etc. Thats the same for everyone.

Then each competing country gets their portion of the overall TV money distributed between their teams.

Englands share of the TV money is huge, so the distribution to English teams is huge. Think it's over €100m now.

Half of that market pool is based on previous years finishing position (40% first, 30% 2nd, 20% 3rd and 10% 4th). The other half is divided according to the number of games played.

In our case United played 6, Chelsea and Arsenal 8 and us 12 (I think). So we got 12/32 share.

 

[kangaspurs]

HAHAHA I hope none of the Arsenal fans on here are like this.

How come Utd got so little?

 

[moomba]

Knocked out in the group so didnt get much in way of win/draw bonuses or bonus for qualifying for knockouts.

Finished 4th season before so only 10% of first half of market pool (we got 30%)

Only play 6 games out of the 34 the English sides played, so around 17% of the second half of the market pool (we got 34%).

Sanchez being investigated by the taxman in Spain for not declaring 983k euros he received for selling his image rights whilst at Barca during 12/13.

Are all these cases due to Barca or are the players all badly advised?

 

[NTRabbit]

Both. Club and managers too slow in realising that broke Spain wasn't willing to put up with the lot of them doing as they pleased anymore.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

I'd also dare to say that it's also a case of Spaniard authorities targeting not only the wealthy ones netting in a lot of that income, but also, ahem, 'nationalism' biases? (Catalonia, of course)

All of them are South America it seems.

 

[Magma]
