Lookman is an intriguing example. Everton accepted an offer from Derby County for him to move to the Championship for five months in January, and considered that his best option. But the winger rejected that chance in favour of RB Leipzig, much to Everton’s disdain.
“We have got some deals for him but he was adamant he chose Germany,” said Sam Allardyce, barely hiding his disgust. “We tried to persuade him not to because I think it is a big challenge for his development with not being able to speak the language. But he was stubborn and got what he wanted.” For the record, Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy were the only English players to score more top-flight goals than Lookman in April and May.
Would take Lookman at Spurs.
That he wasn't getting a look at Everton in what was such a pointless season is stupid

Tbf, as fun as it would be to have Lookman/Sess/Sancho in the squad, it's not going to happen. They haven't a cap yet.
Still building up some pre-emptive rage at Livermore being included.

I think the point about already playing 50 games this season at 17 is probably more pertinent for Sessegnon, and I suppose on the flip side someone like Sancho just hasn't played enough

Shame if we end up losing Brewster. Think Klopp would have given him some game time this season if he hadn't gotten injured.
Probably better for his career that he plays somewhere regularly though. Same could be said about Woodburn tbh.

By Kidjr Go To PostI thought we were getting Sokratis for like 20, pls we are already 5 mill over budget.
Ooo shanks may pull the trigger on a new watch, Patek Phillip nautilus (blue dial) but had heavy look of #concern from the wife as we're about to ask for mortgage that will take us within reach of our limits. But I want it lol
You will need a second mortgage just for that watch lol
Show your wife this. I have always liked tagline.
Could someone give me more insight into the kind of person who goes to see a marvel movie five times.

Afternoon, lads. I hope you didn't forget my reminder yesterday. It's EL Final Day between Marseille and Atletico. Should make for a-
By Laboured Go To PostHad no idea it's the EL final tonight.
West Ham will never have a chance of amounting to anything until they change ownership and revamp the structure of the club hierarchy.
I'm honestly surprised Fonseca even bothered meeting them to begin with.

The FIFA European super league been discussed here?
Been a number of leaks about it recently
Looks like FIFA are going to put it up to a vote - massive clubs all behind it.
Big clubs better start begging to get involved

It's pretty much the gateway for it isn't it?
Can't say I'm a huge fan. Seems like the clubs just see the dollar signs and nothing else.
I mean it's just another step toward killing footers
But it might actually benefit some leagues and make them more interesting/competitive. It's just that nobody will watch them.

Willian is in good shape, expect cunt Mou to play him nonstop till February and then whine that he got a knock, try a young player there for 20 minutes before banishing him to the shadow realm for having the audacity to attack.

By Freewheelin Go To PostAllardyce is so Brexit.I wonder why he is leaving. I wonder if there is a PL team who need a new manager.
Stunningly twattish manager

HAVE YOU GUYS HEARD ABOUT THE BIG SCANDAL?
By Pennywise Go To PostIs he good?
Pretty weird, considering the alternatives.
Can he come to Chelsea?
By Perfect Blue Go To PostIs he good?I don't like his personality.
Can he come to Chelsea?
But as a coach he was pretty good. Developed alot of players and let them play pretty well. He was also a rather honest guy when it came to CL footy and said he also had to get used to it.
Would give him a chance, allthough the club would have to adjust to playing a different kind of footy. More towards what Klopp does, instead of parking the bus.

Wonder why he decided to leave. Surely not for Everton or West Ham, right?
