Happy birthday Sandro, you magnificent bastard

How the PL have aided and abetted these clowns will be a scandal for a few years down the road: https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/45023317/who-chelsea-sign-next-plus-all-need-know-estevao-essugo-other-new-arrivals

“It was Achraf Hakimi…” 😂

Paelladyce has zero shame and zero accountability. He'd infuriate me as an AFC fan.

At this point “Big Meeks” is a parody. More irritating than thrush.

Like a McDonalds uniform

6:47 onwards, love this aggro interviewer owning Arteta haha, also Micah Richards jesus, supports 6 clubs already, now seems he's a PSG fan, wtf this guy!

Arteta needs a few weeks off

Looking at todays talk in the papers I've changed my mind GK Allison CB Guehi RW Mbeumo

Those addons knowing Italian clubs will probably be achieved if Juve win the quadruple

Up pops a smiling Luis Enrique with a pair of wire-cutters...

I don't agree that teams are just going to sit deeper either. Us, Villa, etc don't play a highline as an offside trap, it's to try and condense the play and win the ball back higher up the pitch. We're not going to suddenly drop deeper just because of an offside law change. Teams who already play defensively will still play defensively.

Well beyond 20 million. 😁

Close enough, the point being that Cartel clubs always get high fees for players who have played first team minutes.

I think that's more in-keeping with the spirit of what the offside law was originally intended for though? I just don't see the point in a law where this can be interpreted or given as offside. With or without VAR.

27.5 million is well beyond 20 million. It says 3m + 0.8m additional fees for loan, 14.5m + 2.7m in additional fees for the purchase, and 6.5m add-ons. That is in total 27.5m euros. Obviously I'm not sure what they mean by additional fees, but exclude that it's 24m euros still.

Just a small thing, it was £27m Arsenal got for him (maybe more if clauses are met). £30m feels the upper end for these type of deals, not £40m that.

Slightly off topic but is Liverpool’s shirt this season the worst design to have ever won the title since the Premier League was formed ? Nike created an abomination, the collar design stinks worse than a trout fillet taped to a radiator

Doesn't surprise me at all, supreme athlete, minimal effort. Like having a top-of-the-range 911 and never going above 50mph.

Actually just looked at Sissoko's stats. 35 year old, 40 games, 6 goals. Clearly looks after himself.

They are "trusting the process" so expect them to throw more money at him and whine they lost the title because we refused then the recall of Isaks 6 year loan deal.

The Pardew manager/Sissoko club captain partnership we never thought we'd see.
