Brilliant that all the top six can be in the CL next year except for Man U. Poor bairns. Interesting - I think Eng is only allowed 5 so say Spurs and Arsenal win - Chelsea miss out There are five places, if Arsenal win the EL only Man U miss out. Chelsea can't finish outside the top four. Ffs that’s 5 isn’t lol - my head is all over the place

They spent the Neymar money badly I like Arthur and De Jong will be good BUT Busquets has been losing the ball far too many times, wonder if his legs have gone They need to buy someone to play down the left, he's most likely going to Real BUT Hazard would be good for them or they should just get Neymar back, would be best for all If they are to play 4-4-1-1 which they have to now during this phase of Messi’s career they need to alter the make up of the team - they should have realised this when Neymar went and bought accordingly - I agree with you on Hazard - he was the ideal replacement Suarez needs replacing too - his legs have gone too

Watched every Barca game this season - so this result doesn’t surprise me in the slightest - without Messi (when he has a quiet game or is rested) they are hopeless They’ve never replaced Neymar and Iniesta properly - it’s cost them the CL this season

Players to retain Dubravka, Darlow (Woodmam or promote someone) (3) Manquillo - Schar - Lascelles - Lejuene - Dummet - Fernández - Ritchie (7) BIN - Lazaar - Clark - Yedlin Longstaff - Ki (2) BIN - Aarons - Saivet - Shelvey - Hayden - Colback - Murphy Rondón - Perez - Almiron - Atsu (4) BIN - Gayle - Joselu - Muto That leaves us with 6/7 players to buy

Yes: both need to be binned We need 6 players by my reckoning

Pretty sure Shelvey and Hayden (plus Diame) will go - with the money we receive for both we should be able to get 2 really decent midfielders (would love to get Nandez) Rondón obviously Should be persist with 3-4-3/5-2-3 then the priorities are obvious 1 RWB 1 LWB an alternative to Almiron/Pérez 1 CF Would love to get 1 out and out winger but that could stretch the budget

STUNNING

Mass fewmin I bet

That challenge from Westwood was disgraceful - clear red

They’ve been really good post their loss at SJP - think there were good signs for them during that game too

Holy fuck It’s a solid free kick, but no one seems to have noticed it kicks up off Gomez’s shoulder subtly which helps it get the lift. Best angle is 1 min in. Very good but a bit of luck involved. Think pretty much all the pundits said it came off Gomez' shoulder - it was very minimal fwiw

No. Get well, GK. He’s a Toon fan - all the best Iker

Not entirely sure what his role (think he’s CEO) is but Van der Saar has done a great job at Ajax

From what I remember Arnesen didn't really do that well (he was at either Chelsea or Spurs) - then I think he went on to Hamburg and did awful there too - sounds perfect for Man U!! Peps made (under the Laporta era at Barca) now work for Man City

Nice to see Hayden come out and say more ambition in required

Chronicle Newcastle United midfielder Isaac Hayden spoke about the players' ambition for the club going forward and the important of Rafa Bentiezd FML

Andreas Andersson for me - he was beyond useless, complete and utter tripe

What’s he said......?

That’s brilliant lol

Basically this - he was going off the rule book

Can't believe Al there like, if that isn't a goalscoring opportunity nothing is. He was saying due to the distance from goal by the letter of the law it’s not a red - what’s wrong with that?

Would love to see Muto play in place of Almiron - give him 3 games and go from there

Just checking, but did you play your Wild Card this week? If so then it won’t let you play the Bench boost as well. No - played that 2 weeks ago - I clicked bench boost then that blue box appears - did my transfers - saved team - no differently to how I have done it for last 5 years???
