Joelinton7 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 7 minutes ago, Nucasol said: Less, nominal fee with add ons that could be £3.5m, if plus a 40% sell on clause which is why he’s so cheap. That’s what I meant, just cba to find out what the initial fee was. 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 Share Posted February 1 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 Share Posted February 1 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.

brummie Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I reckon the big Greek lad at Forest just doesn't give a fuck and is one of those types who, having made a fortune, don't fully realise they're not masters of the universe. Their transfer activity is fucking insane. I'm half expecting them to sign me by 11. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 This darts thing, which they are still doing, is the most hilariously desperate shit they’ve resorted to on deadline day. This time next year they may as well just show a couple of films or something. To be honest, it’s all been downhill since the peak of dildo-ear.
