i'd love B.Silva here but he'll cost just about what Maddison will cost us and not to mention his wages is big. not sure how Man city will sell him

Don't really see where he could go? None of the Spanish and Italian clubs have the money for him and only us and maybe Tottenham would want him from within the league.

yes that's why i can see a surprise candidate for us if the maddison deal didn't come through, but it been said he want to play in La liga maybe they'll loan him out.

Another signing for us which was a no brainer. All our eggs are in the Maddison basket now.

If the chooses go to Al-Hilal at 25, I really don't think he should be considered a no-brainer signing for us. Talent doesn't compensate for weak mentality. We have a squad full of mercenaries. We need players with ambition to develop themselves as footballers

This is just disgusting. They have by far the best squad in world football. Even their B team is good enough to challenge for the PL while spending record breaking sums and you still have the media ***-licking them.

I hope they never win the CL.

Tbf if chelsea add lukaku then they have a very strong 22. Utd are 2-3 signings off a insane squad.

It doesnt bother me, city and chelsea are doing what we should be doing and getting 2 good players in every position.

B silva walks into the vast majority of first 11s in europe. If we got him i would be arteta in for another at least another month.

he is but 90% of teams in europe currently cannot afford him Man City will ask for 50-60M at least give him 6-8M a year.

I know there is zero chance of it ever happening but I think Messi should stay at Barca and play for free or a token wage. I know it goes both ways and he has bought them a lot of trophies but they have made him a net worth of between $400-600m depending on which source you believe. They have made him one the richest sportsmen of all time and by doing so have almost bankrupted the club doing it.

He is already a legend but imagine the status he would have if he finished his career there for free and saving the club from near financial disaster. Barcelona aren't just losing Messi they are losing their figure head and I would imagine a massive chunk of merchandising and sponsorship revenue.

He can do an extraordinary, unprecedented thing or take a couple of £100m of PSG or City's dirty, immoral money. One makes him a little bit richer when he is already obscenely rich, the other cements him as probably the biggest legend in football history.

No doubt we will go for Silva makes too much sense. But highly probable he wants CL football and will go to Atletico. The only chance we have funnily enough would be Arteta persuasion.

Lasagna doesn't bang nearly as much as this though.

Is this what they call fusion cuisine?

 

[El Duderino]

Insane

Imagine not taking the money offered for Messi last window. They deserve everything coming to them.

Looks like Spanish wrestling to me.

PSG apparently have trouble adding in Messi now with FFP.

Looks like Edu’s strategy of keeping our powder dry has worked.

It's reaching a point where there are more expensive players than there are clubs able to buy them. The valuations aren't going down, the salaries aren't going down. Something's gotta give.

Agree in principle but football is a pretty brutal business. Few bad games and he either ends up on the bench not getting paid or the fans turn against you anyway. It's not likely that either happens with Messi because he's a complete legend but he would be gambling on that a bit.

Honestly I think what you've said makes perfect sense. Ask them for a token salary (squad average or whatever) - donate it to a local charity and then just enjoy your football for a few years and become a massive hero.

Pep says they were able to afford 110M for Graelish because they sold players worth 60M.

Norwich is financing my club After Rashica it looks like they will sign Sargent too. So they signed two of our most interesting players. In combination with Farke it's a team i have to watch next season too and Palace looks interesting too.
