Unlikely, given that they would still have an income which outstripped 95% of the top division Looking at Man Utd and Spurs’ current position and thinking that this is anything other than a blip is wishful thinking. They’ll both be back amongst it, maybe even as early as next season (Man Utd are the bigger basket case of the two, so do need more work). FFP builds in the advantages to these clubs, so they could have multiple years like this one and still outspend the likes of us or Villa

Everything that's wrong with modern football in that competition.

Yeah but they would have dropped like a stone if there were financial regulations then like there are now. They spent loads and kept bobbing along.

Merson again. Relentless. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-14660981/Arsenal-win-league-TEN-points-one-signing-Paul-Merson.html?ito=native_share_article-top

Liverpool finished 8th once, but they continued to sit in the top four places and won plenty of cups during that period I’m not convinced they do need to spend huge sums to get back up the table - look at who they need to leapfrog. Man Utd and Spurs are still massive draws to players - if Forest get a CL place, I still would be surprised if they attracted a player ahead of those clubs.

That's ignoring how much they will need to spend to get back up there. Overpaying wages to get a player to choose them over a champions League team. I remember how quick Liverpool dropped off in the 90s.

Easiest way I can think off the top of me head is to head along past Scotswood bridge then cut back on yourself at the roundabout where b and q is then up the bank past where the club used to be and it's on the left.

And this is the answer to anyone asking ‘why do the other clubs support FFP?’ I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the PL is full of historically small clubs - to an unusual degree. This season we’ve won more trophies than Brentford, Fulham, Palace, Bournemouth and Brighton have between them in their combined histories - and I’ve basically just listed the PL’s midtable.

Man Utd and Spurs incomes dwarf the other 14 clubs even without CL football - they’re in no danger re FFP; both have around £200m+ of headroom vs the 7th richest club (us) even without CL football. They can survive extended periods like this one.

Which tune does this one go with?

Arsenal want Isak I want a Ferrari Life's a bitch.

Be a good 2/3 miles from Newcastle College!

Surely man u are not set up to miss the champions League for any length of time. And they can't keep making up shit to balance their books every year either. As soon as Spurs and Man U are in trouble I wonder if they will push for a rule change or if the remaining Big 4 will turn their backs on them.

I think the rationale was the hope that he could play his way into form. Obvious now that isn't going to happen. Late in a game he can take the ball into the corner when needed. Would think that Gordon is our best option if we need a goal.

When are we getting the full length metro printed? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DE5bcYjtJL1/?igsh=MXdwMGJ1cmJnY3M2Zw==

Thought there wasn’t much in the game. Chances for each team. Arsenal still in it.

Not enough boots on the flag

The Wor Flags champions league tifos are at the top of the replies to that tweet. They are majestic. We need to do more with the magpie character. Proper swagger on that guy.

Not the same. Their legs, pace and body hadn’t given up on them. I almost feel sorry for the multi millionaire good looking fucker watching him now.

Looks like an AI “draw me the shittest tifo imaginable”

Extend for a year and sell to Saudi / another team? Thats exactly what I am hoping we do with Dubravka

Inspirational stuff. As I’ve just seen on Twitter “what in the fifa career mode is that?”

I’m relaxed. If he goes it’s time. If he doesn’t, Howe sees something, and all those writing him off with such certainty are wrong, just like they were with Gordon, Murphy, Barnes etc.
