The Glazers have taken him to school IMO.

They should've waited a few more years before taking another run at this, there's still way too much bad feeling and suspicion.

There was always too much money to be made for this to go away, and I’ve always been convinced that Chelsea’s valuation was based on them being a future ESL member. I’m not necessarily opposed to a European super league, but it has to be meritocratic, which I expect defeats the objective for the clubs pushing it. They want a closed NFL style gravy train. If we joined such a league, I’m not sure I could watch it.

I picked the stats most suitable to comparing them. The Portuguese league is notorious for high scoring strikers that are pretty mediocre when they move to better leagues.

Only if you count the Portuguese league. In the premier league; Isak 17 in 31 Watkins 49 in 126 Nunez 13 in 45

He's obviously a more talented footballer than Nunez though, and he has a better scoring record. Nunez has his plus points but on a technical level he often looks like Andy Carroll. He was way ahead of Watkins in the guardians list as well. Madness IMO.

That Isak is better than Nunez? Isak scores more and Nunez has the ball control of a horse.

Knowing that the team will be toast after 10 minutes puts a dampener on things. I never thought I’d be aching for an international break.

Team looked fucked physically all game tbh. This season is a nightmare.

The Guardian are doing their top 100 players and it’s already a steaming pile of shite. I don’t know why they bother. Apparently Nunez is significantly “better” than Isak, imagine being a football journalist and holding that opinion.

It’s weird how often being shite in the final 3rd is infectious.

I find it annoying that Paqueta is still allowed to play.

Lloris is finished. The only keeper worse than him last year was that donkey at Leicester, and he had been on the slide for a few seasons before that.

Disgraceful player tbh. He’ll go to a retirement league and underwhelm there as well.

So these monstrosities actually expect to be in the promotion places. I reckon they’ll end up regretting this.

That’s some weird reffing,

Grealish feasting on humble pie.

I was never a fan of Grealish, but it’s staggering what Guardiola has done to him. He’s a £100m water carrier.

Wage bills never get mentioned in these net spend debates either, as if the only spending players is through transfer fees.

Son is on fire here.

I’m sure I’ve said this before but Palace shouldn’t be allowed on tv.

We owe Man U an absolute hiding one day.

It's so transparent.

Might have done Man Utd a favour here if this energy vampire is injured.

This feels like a tricky 3rd round FA Cup game against a plucky League 2 side.
