The white stripes are too wide and close together in the middle. Think all the 96 ones have that issue.

Levy probably asking for significantly more if it's a PL club you'd think. It basically guarantees a champions league spot to whoever bought him. Would be disappointed if we finish below Spurs this season without Kane now.

Grealish role at City is very different to Villa where he was the main man. He's basically there to hold his position right on the touchline outwide and draw defenders to him whilst creating space for the midfielders and Haaland. City pretty much play with a front 5 in attack, two wide players to stretch the opposition as wide as possible then two '10s' exploiting the gaps between the fullback and CBs who are occupied by Haaland. They don't even use pacy wingers anymore just ones very good at dribbling, holding the ball and passing. Wide players stats probably suffer in this system but they are clearly doing what Pep wants them to do. It's daft to compare Grealish to Sterling and Jesus as that was a totally different setup with essentially wide forwards getting into to the box as much as possible.

Nope.

The food looks terrible for the price

They've got back £200+m in player sales this window already. Between that and handing out those daft 8/10 year deals in January they should have loads of wiggle room in terms of FFP for a while unfortunately.

RAWK be in meltdown if they've haggled over a few m for Lavia after getting a massive injection of Saudi cash and Chelsea just come in and pay for him

Mark Flekken. Apparently got a few caps for Holland but no idea how good he is.

My mates bought a youth ticket despite being 25. He's just going to risk it and see what they say.

I'd say he's about equal level to Raya. I think the problem Arsenal have is the drop off from Ramsdale to Turner was massive. Any sort of injury to him could totally derail their season. Now they have good cover and a season to see which of them can hold down the number one spot. Seems like it's been quite opportunistic due to Raya's contract situation and them having already bought his replacement.

Already got one haven't they? Been playing ahead of Raya preseason.

The context is it's a side that finished on 40 points selling their two best players and replacing them with bang average (at best) players.

Arteta could have been on the blower to Pep again to get him to put in another fake bid.

You must feel absolutely sick as a West Ham fan to see the list of names they are targeting with the Rice money, and then to find out City are in for Paqueta too All just a few days before the season starts anarl.

We got Bruno, Botman and Tonali for not much more than that

Despite having a fair few really good technical players I've always found them painful to watch since they came back up.

Looking likely this is how they could lineup v Liverpool on the weekend. Definitely looks underwhelming Kepa James Silva Colwill Chilwell Gallagher Enzo Sterling Carney Mudryk Jackson

Nkunku isn't really a striker, Poch usually plays a 4231 so he'd be playing in one of the three behind Jackson.

He actually says "I don't think they're the type of signings the rest of the premier League are seeing and thinking thinking wow" I'm not sure why him and Neville are acting like FFP isn't a thing though, talking about all the money we have and how long before 100+ m signings etc. We have the money we just aren't allowed to spend it.

Buckled at that, like

So Moyes is spending the Rice money on McTominay, Maguire and Alvarez?

It's a great league. It's entertaining to watch, the support and ownership model is brilliant and produce/develop some of the best players and managers around. The issue is they just can't hang onto the players and managers for very long. The clubs are constantly having to do rebuild jobs as Bayern or other European sides raid them of all their talent. It's a bit sad as Dortmund are huge club and the biggest challengers and they are essentially viewed as a stepping stone club now.

Brilliant having someone so composed and ruthless infront of goal. Cant wait to see him get some game time with Isak, who I think he'll link up much better with than Wilson.

I know this is a pisstake but that would instantly put us -£25m for the year in terms of FFP and make it impossible to sign anyone else
