Deuce

If you want to pick up a free agent, you have to submit a waiver claim on him. If you're the only one to submit a claim, he's yours. Otherwise, it goes in order of most shit team -> least shit team. It's for parity, i.e. if Messi suddenly ends up at City during the season, he can't just be picked up by whatever cunt tries to sign him first.

Nah, you only get bumped down the line if it goes through successfully.

Did y'all do an auction draft?

It's occurred to me that France could be starting a front 3 of Dembele-Mbappe-Martial in the next few years. To say nothing of the rest of sub-24 year-olds they've got to fill out the rest of the team (Mendy, Umtiti, Zouma, Rabiot, Lemar, Coman, Tolisso, Kimpembe).

Despite his pretty pedestrian career, Wenger must've seen something to sign him. Or not, Wenger's signed his fair share of shit over the years.

A clock is right two times a day. I agree with this. He also has two hands, a face and can count to twelve.

Gayle, Lucas Perez, Joselu

Has he played there before? Klinsmann, the moron, loved playing him as a right winger for the U.S., but I don't recall ever seeing him on the left. Maybe occasionally for Seattle early on in his career. Edit: seems he played LB for Spurs in a couple of preseason friendlies

And that's why it won't happen.

Sanchez is a better player now than he was at Barcelona. Ironically, he'd be one of the best options to replace Neymar. Your FB lad's an idiot, mind.

Until they prove otherwise, this is still a Championship-quality squad. Getting a point would be a good start.

I imagine that'll be the XI vs. Spurs, depending on what's up with Gayle.

Arsenal 2-1 Leicester City Watford 1-1 Liverpool Chelsea 3-0 Burnley Crystal Palace 1-0 Huddersfield Town Everton 2-0 Stoke City Southampton 1-0 Swansea City West Bromwich Albion 0-0 AFC Bournemouth Brighton 0-3 Manchester City Newcastle United 1-1 Tottenham Hotspur Manchester United 2-2 West Ham United

Neither team probably cares tbf.

Your secret's safe with us.

Trades allowed in this?

Love me some injured players like

Blind trust of the opinions of other teams' supporters, especially re: potential transfers. The average football supporter is a fucking moron.

Such a waste of a career.

That's his agent. He must look like white-hot dogshit in training, has barely seen any time on the field.

Very good article which I feel sums up a situation I've been expecting for a few seasons. Finally we are approaching that transfer market stand-off where wages at clubs have gotten so silly that clubs can't get rid of the deadwood because the players are refusing to take pay cuts in order to play football. If I was a Riviere or a Haidara and getting silly money here then I can't say I would be keen to abandon that to go elsewhere. Certainly not given the form and fitness record of those two. They may as well run down their contracts, take their money and then take their chances of someone picking them up on the free when their contract expires. Dump them in the reserves. Make them play against kids in front of a handful of fans. They're allowed to collect that paycheck, but that doesn't mean they're allowed first team football. Doesn't directly solve our problem, as we've still got them on the books, but maybe it'd force their hand.
