Optimistic Nut Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) I've just signed him and Alex Scott for Newcastle. Good signings if they're anything like their FM versions. Edited July 16, 2023 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Arsenal are hilarious, ever since that Samir Nasri song and adulation for him I’ve found them funny but they really are the ultimate wet wipe club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Arsenal seem to be the embodyment of that awful, homogeneous Twitter patter that is under every football tweet. Where everbody talks like they're an Angolan 12 year old immitating something from The Football Factory. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Levy is going to drag this Kane situation ad infinitum in search of every last euro, totally oblivious to the fact it is weighing that club down. Fucking sell him and move on, you can't have that nonsense almost every summer. He clearly wants to go, get it over and done with and move on. Obviously I don't want Spurs to get things right so ^^^^ hope they don't actually do the above, but jesus christ, it's such a boring never ending story, even for non Spurs fans.

Had a poor season just like the rest of them. £40m for him is a fair price given his performances last year, but really thought he had much more to give. Turning 30 this year which means he’d probably have another 3-4 years at the top. Shame as he was unbelievable before last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Twitter is full of people moaning at how unfair it is ASM is linked to a Saudi move. It’s beginning to really annoy me how half the league can do business with the Saudi clubs yet we are rumoured to be and it’s suddenly unfair and cheating. Just shut the fuck up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

prefabtoon Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 I feel there must be mass panic in football behind the scenes. We're all stuck within a FFP framework, while Saudi can have a billion $ wage bill and there is nothing you can do to stop For the Saudi's its a win-win. They either improve their league massively or they force FFP changes in Europe which will allow NUFC and any other club in Europe that they buy to do exactly the same thing.

I get it but it doesn’t take much effort and understanding to realise there isn’t any bending of the rules or getting an upper hand. It just comes across as bitterness. don’t hear any of the bitching and moaning when it’s their club selling a cast off to Saudi it’s been happening for years with udinese-Watford, the city group and the redbull clubs.

leffe186 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Maybe in some other leagues, don’t think so in England. There’s still a ton of money sloshing around here, and the prestige of the competition and potentially the Champions League. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including in here. If you’re owned by a country, and that country is going to give you a ton of money to take a player off your hands, it looks dodgy. That’s inescapable and part of the price of taking their money. I feel like you just have to suck up the opprobrium tbh, however unfair it might feel. You might actually be the bad guy, through no fault of your own, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Until we see the fee (if it happens) nobody can say it's dodgy - there's obviously a fair value for him (probably around 30-35m). If he goes for 50-60m then we're obviously taking the piss Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamPS Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 With Kane, for Newcastle the best result is he sees out his contract - Spurs would be stronger this season but would forego the £80m revenue and with Kane having 9 months left it would be a total distraction for them all year.

I'm not sure what angers fans of other clubs more, the idea that we won't do things by the book, or the lack of evidence that we aren't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
