Village Idiot Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Yeah while there is dodgy accounting, they seem to at least know what they're doing getting the clubs to actually be run well and doing well, wonder if theres ethical issues elsewhere. Suppose if they go through a bad patch itll come under more scrutiny There's ethical issues since Granada are using all the players they get for free to circumvent La Liga's spending limits rules, giving them advantage over their relegation rivals.

madras Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 The lad Everton signed seemed to turn up in his car on his own. Fly in, hire car, drive myself to the training ground, just seemed strange he wasn't driven there. I smell a rat. Turns out his wife is from the North west.

The College Dropout Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Surprised how quickly they've given up on him. Haven't seen much of Atleti this season though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Surprised how quickly they've given up on him. Haven't seen much of Atleti this season though. Reportedly he was unsettled and asked Simeone to be let go. I suspect Evergrande will be paying him some really stupid wages and, being 29, he snapped at the chance. He's been awful for them, so I don't think Cholo gave it much thought, tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The money is way too good. Increasingly Europeans too. Maybe peak in your mid 20's in terms of clubs you play for. If that doesn't work out by 28-30 China might be a great destination.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I would go like, shit football but a really interesting place to be and loads of cash to boot. Especially towards 30 when you've already played in Europe for a while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially towards 30 when you've already played in Europe for a while. Most Europeans are reluctant to go somewhere so alien(relatively) in culture. For South/Central Americans & Africans they've already experienced that by coming to Europe. The numbers that go through Russia alone lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooneyToonArmy Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Brilliant piece of business by Atletico, Martinez has been a complete flop and they made a profit on him after 3 goals Also Alex Texeira rumoured to be going there too for 50m euros....no wonder they rejected Liverpool's bids Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I don't fancy Disco's chances given Mendes has a £1.25B head start and already has many high profile clients. Sorry Disco, I don't mean to hold you down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
