There was a time when Aguero was absolutely terrifying, you just knew he was going to destroy you.

Yeah, quite like it, don't see why he shouldn't. Better that than another gambling website.

I'm not sure it even means he's staying. If the club activate their option to extend his contract, he could still ask/look for a move away. Which if I was him, I would have already started.

I'm not sure why we would agree to go to arbitration, nominate the panel, and appeal the third panel member for a delay of several months, if we thought we could settle without it.

I mean, I hope so, but he could have escaped with dignity any time he wanted. Just admit you're not up to it and resign.

You can cross contract expiry off that list, they'll offer him a new contract.

This is basically how I feel about paedophiles really, though I don’t expect it to be popular. Course you can (and probably should) extend that logic to anyone who commits a whole range of different crimes. They will all have causes behind them which have driven the person to act that way. Yet we still hold them responsible.

Same I think. Actually kind of wanted us to go down so I could watch the premier league without hearing about us.

You'd find out quickly when he dispensed with the lot of them.

I get why people might not like him.

We basically have no punditry or analysis. People like TIFO and The Kick Off are miles ahead of anything on the big broadcasters.

Verratti’s gone, he’s next up.

What an idiot.

Without VAR and the culture it created there wouldn’t even be an appeal there.

That said, the involvement of Rubens and Staveley etc mean a cheaper deal is probably more attractive. Who knows.

A major part of it is sportswashing though right? Which isn’t related to the purchase price or the future value.

It's certainly not our income that's going to make us balance sheet champions, so spending nothing is probably the best way.

Gullit wasn't proven to be shit either really, he just turned out to do badly here.

I'm surprised the stadium's still standing up.

Yeah, one of those games where the opponent doesn't really need to beat us by many, so they settle for 2. We won't really attack in numbers so I can see their counters being a bit limited.

Well, it's just a massively rich business where the entertainment is provided by inexperienced, young and working class lads. I don't want agents to take ridiculous money or be paid by clubs either, but I also don't want the players to miss out on the majority share of the money in the game. No doubt lots of things to do with agents need to be improved mind.

Seems a bit unfair to ban players from having representatives to help them make the most of their careers.

Football clubs to be treated as some kind of entities of community value, like listed buildings. Which would ensure they must always be run with the best interests of the community and the club itself. And limit things that can be done with renaming, moving, sponsorship and that kind of thing. Not sure on the governance, maybe some sort of citizen's assembly that can make decisions on any contentious moves they want to make.

Yeah, ideal result is finishing 4th bottom with as many heavy defeats as that allows.
