We have a much stronger case this time around as we've had two CL campaigns and won a trophy.

*As long as he stays fit.

Good stuff, can't sniff at an away draw to the European champions

He came from the Korean second division, he's probably well off it for PL level.

You know the saying things can always be worst right? Who knows how it will play out, we have to do better this summer though. Massive amount to do in a disrupted period of time.

I don't think Saudi care much about ghr sports washing narrative. I was just curious how they device which portfolio company gets which gig.

We have Ross Wilson who if we are being honest is a guy with a mixed track record and lacking elite experience.

Weve got a lot of work to do in the summer and it's a world cup year. I don't envy those who's job it is in the summer like.

Thank you for the insight. Do you know why they use Aramco for F1?

Luckily for them outside of set pieces we aren't much of an aerial threat

Next deal has to be more. Let's be clear Sela were just PIFs way of pumping money into the club. The company has very little real world value and must have horrible books The next step will be absolutely fascinating.

Source?

Oh dear.

Another canny heavy wage on Villas books.

I don't think it's like that tbh and even if it was it would never play out like that.

It's kind odd, we had two outgoings for money (isak aside who was managed by the ownership of we believe the manager) and that was Dubs for a nominal fee and Longstaff who was a firesale because of his contract. Looks like Nickson was sidelined to me.

Unfortunately for us the ridiculous rules we have in place enable clubs who are much poorer than us to spend way more. They wasted so much money but the rules allow them to continue to do so despite being 1b in debt before we talk about a new stadium they want to build

Lines up as I'm pretty sure the media were crediting A Howe for our incomings.

Pl FMV rules exist sadly they would likely try and mark it down. Also bombing players out after one season doesn't seem Eddie's style either.

Problem is, we downed tools last season and we all witnessed that. Although we did manage to handle the situation in the worst possible way

Most people won't have changed how they voted since September.

Gordon has shown over the last what? 18 months that what's best for him isn't best for the team. It's time he took one for the team.

We can go pay 5m for Asensio and pick up his 300k per week wages but id be sure he wouldn't get much playing time. Ultimately as the gaffer has said in a roundabout way he doesn't want players on loan so what do you do?

Not to be that guy but if we look at those players it's quite simple no? Keepers don't need bedding in. Botman we didn't have many other options Burn we had no other options. Thiaw came in when we had injuries Trips we had no other options/was miles better than what we had. isak came in because we had Wilson who was also injury prone. Also, if you look at all those players they are better than what we had before. We've proven to struggle to replace output recently Murphy is still out best right winger

I wouldn't put it that way. isak is definitely a cunt I do have some limited sympathy with Wissa. Ultimately we did what we have a habit of doing and we kicked the can until we couldn't and ended up paying a massive fee for a guy who was at his peak with no resale value Unfortunately we just aren't a savvy elite organisation, we bumble through making do.
