Disco Posted February 1, 2024 Share Posted February 1, 2024 Just now, joeyt said: Are Lyon flush with cash now? I thought they were having to sell players which is why they were struggling so badly in the league Yet they can afford to spend on Benhrama? Worried about going down / dubious (shit) owner you'd imagine. All a bit off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted February 1, 2024 Share Posted February 1, 2024 5 hours ago, Dr.Spaceman said: Just me or does Forest swapping Mangala for Reyna seem a bold strategy? Mangala seems to play every time I see them and is more a DM than AM. I'll put money on Reyna not being able to match Mangala's 50 appearances in then next 3 seasons (if he's still there after this one). If they don’t play the same position, how is it a swap? Reyna is only on loan. And they likely need to sell due to FFP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they likely need to sell due to FFP. It's a swap in terms of one-in-one-out of the squad - Seems as though they had to get rid of Mangala to bring Reyna in. Otherwise the timing of the two announcements were weirdly close to each other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact they've brought in these rules AFTER City have already financially doped for years and heavily invested in their academy means it just solidifies everything. They can outspend everyone, but no club is ever going to generate as much as them. Klopp on his way. PL fast becoming a one team league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armchair Pundit Posted February 1, 2024 Share Posted February 1, 2024 The league isn't anywhere near as interesting and the transfer windows are boring as fuck. Surely the stakeholders who make money from broadcasting and reporting, even the league itself, see how much this FFP bollocks is damaging the product? I bet even Peter Odemwingie hasn't been driving around looking for a new club today! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maze Posted February 1, 2024 Share Posted February 1, 2024 Their initial intention with FFP I’m sure was noble. But it will never work as intended. Never. It will backfire immensely and utimately hurt the interest in EPL and football. It only serves to protect the biggest clubs, and if that’s the way they want it, they should support the creation of a Super League rather than fight it.
