Perhaps they knew this would get negotiated so thought they may as well start with an extreme, ridiculous proposal and wear people down to a compromise.
Problem is, the most despicable part of the project happens to be the only reason they're doing it. So I doubt the 'power grab' bits would go away.
Was scrolling through earlier and it's quite an effort he's put in
Sunderland roughly the same rank and they really are. I wonder how high we'll finish.
It's mad that any respectable club went for Solskjaer, never mind Man Utd. Some managers start low and quickly rise up, some go back and forth between Molde and Cardiff because they're shite.
Wildcard before international week?
The break shouldn't make a difference really. Although I did the spend the week debating whether to replace Son with Barnes or Grealish and obviously went Barnes.
This was an alright Wildcard, until Mourinho lied about Son's injury and now it's turned into a bloodbath. Because of Son, the old team would've marginally outscored the new one
It's mad, like. I thought it was a decent day with Calvert-Lewin scoring and Trossard assisting, yet it's another drop (so far) because of all those Rodriguez and Wilson owners
So difficult to rise in this game.
Had to chase up On the Continent because the Ramble keep fucking around. Can't believe Dotun Adebayo is now the host - love him on World Football Phone-In but he's hardly there for his footballing knowledge.
According to FM, Barca are rammed with wonderkids. Maybe it could be a similar to Chelsea last season, where other circumstances force them to put faith in kids.
What's the worst that can happen - get repeatedly humiliated in the Champions League? Completed it already, mate.
