Not sure a true or false thing can be wide of mark, it either happened or it’s made up

I was thinking equal spending limits that aren't based on income.

Every club having the same budget is really the only fair way. Along with some measures to make sure they aren’t risking the future of the club, like proven funds to back up spending or funds being put in a certain account etc. It’s basing it on current income at an arbitrary point in time that locks in the advantage of the existing top clubs. I mean, not sure there really is a good solution since even a budget gap disadvantages the teams that can’t/won’t spend up to the cap. Guess it depends if we’re looking at financial sustainability or just pure sporting fairness.

Yeah, absolutely can’t happen. Hall and Bruno must be retained at all costs.

Raises questions about his mental state TBH - steer clear.

Well the picture was changing. Wissa was meant to provide guaranteed PL goals while we integrated Woltemade I assume. It doesn’t necessarily map exactly onto Isak/Wilson.

We all want a lot of things.

I think Bruno's corner was probably accidental so would find it hard to vote for it.

I’d say right now they’re equal, zero chance of 1 or 3. But he would only be signed if we had eyes on him as our starting keeper before too long. I mean, I don’t know but given we don’t have any top keepers it seems likely. I didn’t think he was just a punt on a PSR project like Minteh or anything, mainly because we badly need keepers. But could be wrong.

Well if he’s a highly rated young player and all these clubs are interested, I don’t think we’re buying him as a number 3 option. Surely he’s backup and potential to take over the starting spot pretty quickly. Not too dissimilar to Trafford.

He’s more likely to be #1 than #3. Weird thing to be worried about.

Just promise him the starting spot and get this over le line.

No need, just saying he's not just relying on vibes. Agree with the language around fighting cancer is not always the best, but I guess it depends what helps each patient.

He's also trying to beat it with treatment I think.

That's offensive at first glance

You have to actually read the full Mail article to see it's not what the headline says.

Yeah, that's what I thought but then the club's reaction post is also weird.

If they have the money.

I'm very confused whether this is news or just something he happened to mention.

Think I’m the opposite, love a bit of mono badge.

Think it's important to realise this isn't news of his cancer progression or that he's imminently dying or that kind of thing. The headline makes it sound like he's checking out right now, which is not the story.

He could probably sell out SJP on a non match day.

Very serious but if you read the article he's not really announcing things have suddenly got worse, he is still in treatment so hopefully will last a fair while yet. If he comes on the pitch next season I'll lose my shit for sure.

I always expected A Murphy to be more a CB than LB.
