Why are we sending shirts to Romano?
I said when it was announced that the shirt was a bit stupid with the CR7 but it's been a massive hit. First stock was sold out after 3 days, it's going to be our best selling shirt ever.
Weird that Bournemouth really were the only ones in the prem for Aarons at that price.

Did Xavi hate Franck Kessie or was he really so bad over the last year that no one was interested in him? A mere €13m for him to end up in SA in what should be his prime contract years is wild.

Apparently he scored quite a screamer vs Madrid from comments I saw when it was rumored to be happening.
Very smart idea. Not entirely sure why Brentford are willing to do it, but I suppose they figure they can probably get something close to 30m next summer from another team in a scenario where Arsenal don't buy him.

Looks like Caicedo to Chelsea is inching closer.

By Perfect Blue Go To PostWhy doesn’t Caicedo put in a transfer request? Do players still do that?They do. It doesn't really mean much ultimately since it can't really force the issue, but if Football Manager is to be believed, it means they have to give up their remaining loyalty bonus which is usually some millions. Obviously Chelsea would be able to easily supplement that, but everyone involved knows he wants the transfer so it's sort of moot.
I imagine they'll meet in the middle. Something a bit short of £100m with add-ons that can take it there.
Gotcha, makes sense. Yeah as long as it gets done soon idc how much we pay. He looks like the real deal.
I do love how aggressive Burnley have been in the transfer market the last two seasons. They had to replace so many players last year and knocked it out of the park.. making what seems like a lot of shrewd ones this time too. Seems like most all of them are young enough that if they do go back down right away (and I don't expect they will), they'll be able to build with them.
Crewe scored with their only attempt on target last night... literally a yard out from a corner. Nathan Bishop am a fraud, thanks for nothing United papangus.
Never trust a n8.

Would that have even counted if it went in?
Can't kick it twice. Mitrovic had a pen disallowed against us last year because he kicked it off his standing leg.

Di Maria is back at Benfica and winning games for them. About to win the Portuguese Supercup over Porto.
Looks like Pepe got a red card too, lol. Seems he was on the bench from what I can tell though.

Chelsea looking at different options…
What options are there?
Jesus Christ, now we've bid for Lavia. 😩

By barber Go To Postlavia AND caicedo? bfffft.It makes sense considering Gallagher and Enzo are the only other options with any experience.
Think Caicedo is a certain baller and will only get better.
If Lavia, given his age, can continue on his current trajectory, £50m (considering Saints won't get the full fee) seems more than fair.
So £150m-ish for those two seems like not the worst idea ever all things considered.
Enzo, Caicedo and Lavia are three of the best young midfielders around. Don't think they can all play together, but that's fantastic depth.
By n8 dogg Go To PostWhy would you bid 48 when they have repeatedly asked for 5048,000,001.00
Just bid 50 you stupid fucks
Ben Jacobs is saying Lavia wanted LFC, so they (FSG) probably think this will break Saints resolve and they'll accept lower terms.
But once you get into the £5m or less discussions, like, what the shit are you even doing? Get on and play ball.

Absolutely embarrassing for us if Lavia ends up going to Chelsea. Could have had it sorted weeks ago if we didn't spend so much time trying to lowball Southampton. Would have had some time to train before the season starts too. Fucking jokes.
By Meier Go To PostDi Maria is back at Benfica and winning games for them. About to win the Portuguese Supercup over Porto.Didn't watch the game as I have my cousin, her husband and their 1 year old daughter visiting from mainland Portugal and I spent the whole night playing with the baby but Pepe was on the field and got a straight red card.
Looks like Pepe got a red card too, lol. Seems he was on the bench from what I can tell though.
The only ridiculous thing it that was only the second red card Pepe ever got in Portugal.
Benfica are by far the strongest team so it's no surprise they won.
Porto only to do as well as they do because of Sergio Conceição, they play with a lot of aggression and passion.
Their starting CBs are a 36 and a 40 year old, their wingbacks aren't that good to the point that their best winger (Pepê) plays at right wingback most of the times, Galeno is a pace merchant with poor decision making, Otávio is the only top class midfielder they have, they have a lot of strikers (5) and Taremi is the best but seems out of form, dives a lot and is on the last year of their contract.
