isn't the whole idea to make sure clubs are sustainable? How does lumping fines onto clubs who are apparently living beyond their means helps with this?

Glad to see all the players hate Havertz as much as the fans do

She's always really good. Don't know why she isn't on more

Yeah, it's certainly going to be a sizeable rebuild. We can only hope that the Kelly and Almiron sales are part of a bigger plan to sort out squad issues rather than just a scramble to make sure we are complying with PSR.

It's three of our first choice back 4. I don't really have an issue with having experienced backup in defence - I'd be more worried if our entire squad was made up of 20 year olds

Botman, Hall and Livramento say hi. If we get a youngish right sided centre back then we will be very well set. Selling Lloyd Kelly for £20m is good business even without PSR nonsense.

I don't think anyone does, but I doubt he'll be getting the full whack when he's leaving after 6 months. His much discussed wage was likely so high because the signing on bonus was spread over his full contract. If it is structured like this then I don't know what the would mean in terms of PSR profit though

No Gordon assist for the Murphy goal?!

JUUUUIICCE!

Rather than 20 on the Greek keeper? Yes.

I think this is the crux of it. Accepting a bid for a player who doesn't want to go makes no sense. If he was up for the move I reckon they would have accepted it.

Bye Miggy. We'll always have Paris x

Maybe Villa go after Ferguson now?

No doubt an unknown villa youngster will be going the other way for c.£20m

We've been out shithoused

What the fuck is. the ref up to?

Yeah, either Isak or Palmer for me today

I'm not suggesting I want to sign him, just pointing out that his injury record isn't comparable to Wilson's.

This is total bollocks - he's had a few lengthy injuries but isn't a permacrock like Wilson. Whether he's good enough is up for debate

Turns out Elanga is actually not bad. Maybe Eddie does know how to pick a player after all.

Emery looks like good value

I think we just need a new keeper who can both.... 1. Make saves 2. Pass the ball competently Both Dubravka and Pope are lacking in one of these.

Is Allison leaving when the Georgian lad comes in?

Just because it isn't applied consistently doesn't mean the rule isn't clear. It was explained by the officials during and after the game. Ange seems pretty clued up on the rules when they work in his favour.
