Ratface is right on that point, all these rules hurt us internationally. Real Madrid are top dogs worldwide.

It's problematic in terms of if everyone can spend 500m per year but they don't have the revenue to back it up then who covers the gap? It would give credence to the patiently false original intent which was to protect clubs.

Anchoring won't run alone, it will be anchoring plus squad cost it's just anchoring is the upper limit.

Yes because both of them combined net out to be a positive. Squad cost without anchoring is worst for us than the current system however we need all the details.

That's correct it would still be helpful as it would put a hard cap on the gap, it essentially brings the entire field together even with the squad cost ratio.

Not on twitter so can't see the whole thread. That being said Anchoring is problematic and the PFA will be fighting it should they go ahead.

This is problematic. Let's zoom out. Manchester United is a company listed on the us exchange. Are we buying a stake with any investment or is it a donation to the shareholders?

Lisa Nandy was on the athletic podcast and they asked her would the govt be providing funding to old Trafford and she basically refused to rule it out. Old Trafford meaning the actual stadium

10/10 will watch again.

To circle back to everybody's favourite subject ffp. You can see why the sky 6 would rather blow up the league than ever let it go away. Imagine what Eddie would do to arteta if we were actually able to invest and comparable levels.

That actually makes sense. Extremely unlikely Liverpool would be willing to pay what it would take.

I don't think he understands how much he would cost. If Isak is to leave in the next 12 months I can only see PSG.

As someone else pointed out, Eddie and legohead can't stand each other. It couldn't be more obvious

That's a shame, I'm guessing it goes to league position in that case.

If Liverpool beat spurs does it practically guarantee us Europe next season regardless of the final?

He's also noticeably fitter this season which is good to see.

To you it does aye, but you are not the intended audience. It's obviously a much wider convo and your entitled to like what you like but as someone who was raised in the inner city (not London) the terms you use and the way you speak is your sense of belonging in your community.

I've always been a fan of Rice but he let himself down today, if we assaulted Odengaard in the way he assaulted Bruno with that ridiculous tackle arsenal fans would be demanding an apology from the PGMOL.

Hope we can keep growing so we can tie him down. He isn't replaceable in and shape or form. Haaland maybe the best the best goal scorer in the league but Isak is the better footballer and it isn't even close.

Language is constantly evolving you may not like the terminology used but it's what the young culture is in London.

Being delirious at 7am is canny

You can ask and see what people say. A gallowgate expansion doesn't help much with ffp. But obviously would allow more in but the cost probably makes it not viable.

One more thing I forgot to add Those who want to stay with no changes, would they be happy with us getting both left behind by the sky 6 and potentially being over taken by clubs such as Villa who are willing to do what it takes to compete? We can complain about the rules all we like ( I don't think anyone on here be-moans them as much as me) but they aren't going to be loosened imo so this is the big picture choice that's actual being made.

Definitely I do too but my personal view is somewhat different, I want to see the club become the best it can be and stick it back to those who've looked down on us for as long as I can remember. Should this happen and we take the right steps elsewhere it will be even more satisfying seeing us compete with such artificial constraints placed on us. That's my selfish angle. The other angle I have is the ability for the next generation of supporters to be able to be watch in person and not be locked out is of paramount importance, so a new stadium with a larger capacity is a massive plus, from Sydney to shields everyone should get the chance to see the team play.
