At least roman buys good players. The American owners steal billions from the fans generally.

With the narrative being that the first is bad, the second is good.

Crazy.

From a football fan perspective roman = buying top players. Investment in club. Good

Glazer's or Levy = essentially stealing money from fans. Neglecting investment. Bad.

From a human perspective obviously all billionaire and most middle East regime are bad and consumer capitalism very dumb.

 

[moomba]

Suspect people wouldn't care about the second if the first didn't happen.

 

[joop]

Yep, all over Spanish news.


Would be a monumental signing.

Apparently Cabral from Basel too.

I don't think we will get both, but we will see.

 

[moomba]

Is this talk of limiting the number of loan players actually happening or is it just talk at this stage?

Where will he play?

Wing?

 

[Pykie]

Wing?

No, as the striker in Bamfords role.


However, he can also play through the wings.

Bielsa only really signs players who can play multiple positions.

 

[Bostonian]

No, as the striker in Bamfords role.

He's scored 11 goals in the last 5 years at Valencia according to wiki, is that wrong?

What's Bamford's role normally?

*edit 7 goals last season it seems

He scored 16 goals in La Liga in 2018 in the role.

Last two years he's been playing through the wings.

He's also played most of Spains internationals for the last 3 or so years.

Yeah but Lingard played 14 internationals in 2018 for England so that means jack

I'd like to know this also.

Apparently Cabral from Basel too.

thought for a second this was cabral from sunderland fame (infamy?)

Meanwhile... we are twiddling our thumbs.

Ugh.

Oh no, what ever shall you do with a side that won by a billion points.

This is why you don’t listen to journalists all the time. Apparently Messi has this clause in his contract and no one knew about it lol.

 

[Marcel Proust]

Emergency meeting within FC Barcelona board in the wake of Messi's formal request to terminate his contract.

Jesus Christ. I guess they thought he’d never use it. That’d sting if they got nothing

That's surely not a real thing hahah

Agree with this. Liverpool are still the best team in England. No need to panic. Who knows if Chelseas full new first team will gel together. If you get Thiago im putting you in the box seat for another UCL final and close to 100 points. Once you get Sancho in 2021 and Mbappe in 2022 it’ll be carnage

For this window I'd just be happy with getting Thiago and a 4th in line CB.

Sadly, it seems like United’s only hope of Liverpool not winning the league next season and reaching our 20 league titles is for Messi to go to City. Who’d have thunk it?

 

[joop]

Valencia & Leeds have agreed to 30m euro for Rodrigo. He seems to be exactly what we need. Now we need a CB or 2.
