Is juice and a sweetie Scots jargon for crystal meth and ketamine? 😆

We don’t have any other assets to sell, it’s our men’s team, a decent training ground, a leasehold position on the stadium and i guess the fee interest in the stack site. Our women’s team is far off. So please stop mentioning we don’t have any loopholes to use because we don’t. And the one time we sold a player to Saudi, we were run thru the mud in the press and made to defend why Maxi was a 25m player despite his age and helping us qualify for CL. Meanwhile Dhuran has one good half season and goes for double.

Surely he would start ahead of Martinelli who is a bit of a one trick pony. A front three of Eze - Sesko/Gyokeres - Saka with the rest of the team could win the league. If Arteta spends this much and fails to win anything (again!) then they would surely have to get rid. He has spent a fortune since he took over!

We're gleefully selling off our most beloved things. Rotten.

Aye, in fkn dog years.

Polite reminder that a players value rarely equates to their sale price. They're not items on a shelf, with more in the back.

Great, 6th goalie nearly signed. To be fair, he looks like a great prospect and will suit our game. Just like to see a bit of movement in areas we really need, but hoping that will all start to move now.

The fact that he has someone very good starting ahead of him doesn't really make the signing better, though. It's like buying an expensive backup for Isak and give the signing a better rating from a business perspective because he has someone world class infront of him. That's like half of the reason someone was disappointed. Until he hit some form, but then got benched again. I get he was injured in the first season, but we can't just exclude that season entirely from the evaluation.

We're gaslighted daily that middle eastern sovereign funds are the issue. Turns out football imitates real life politics.

PSR died as a serious concept with this Hotel/Womans team nonsense. Im not a hater of PSR in general and think things could be quite grim without it but it feels like we’ve crossed the Rubicon of allowing teams to circumvent it. Sticking to the rules gets you nowhere, starting to feel we should try and burn the whole thing to the ground.

Well colour me shocked... I'm not used to hearing such sense spoken on talksport.

Sold to their parent company. Utter joke these loopholes.

Flogging players to Saudi is no issue for them - guaranteed inflated income

Mmmm, more US investment companies. We'll not bemoan all of this in the future at all.

I did the full 7 day paper round as a kid. Up every day for around 12-14 quid a week. The thing is, I'd always get tick on juice and a sweetie each day, so I'd always end up getting paid about 7 quid a week after the tick was paid off. Sigh 😕

That photo says it all, empty stadium, sold for £55m - I'm fucking sick of this shit.

They are not allways the most accurate, but I still generally find them more accurate than the valuation of fans of the players club. A vast majority of fans would value their players and signings higher than what the reality is. Especially if things has been going well recently.

If it gives us the ability to sign a top class players then they can change it to The Poundland Arena for all I care. If it doesn't, pass.

Classic Scottish hard paper round. He’s 21 FFS:

He's 30cm tall.

Proper kicks can down the road to next summer, because they'll spend and be in same situation next summer. Monchi going to be wheeling and dealing like mad, once again. Clubs should stay away from signing Villa players and let them get fucked (at least to the point they have to sell top players for below value due to being in a weak position). Sure they will end up peddling Bailey and Buendia to Saudi for like £70m between them though.

Hopefully we don't hear too much about any links with Kudus because it will guaranteed just turn into being walked up the garden path.

A fellow Scotsman, so he must be fucking great at footie. BUY BUY BUY

What do we have to sell? Our women’s team won’t fetch much

It’s got them out a hole. Prevented them from selling and might even stretch to them signing someone. It’ll do them
