Turnbull2000 Posted August 20, 2025 Share Posted August 20, 2025 Always wanted BlueCo. What a fucking farce the league is looking to be. 5 of the breakaway six demolishing everybody in the transfer market and probably seizing back control of the top quarter of the league, and all the cock sucking clubs happy to oblige them.

gbandit Posted August 20, 2025 Share Posted August 20, 2025 It’s fucking hilarious how we’re made out to be the bad guys in football and the ones no one wants to do business with.

Arsenal are a CL team taking one of Crystal Palace’s best players. You’re a CL team taking one of Nottm Forest’s best players. CL teams will take players from sides not in the CL, because they have more money and it’s an attractive proposition. That will always be there. We can have all kinds of discussions about multiclub ownership, PSR, nation-state ownership etc etc, but clubs higher up the table buying players from clubs lower down the table is always going to be a thing and is what you were ultimately pointing out. Edit: the anomaly there is Man U, but they have always had a ton of money with their revenue. I’m genuinely curious to see how that changes this year.

You are right, but it wasn't at this scale before PSR. You'd always see players moving upwards to those clubs but it was a few in total, not 8/9/10 or more, whilst also robbing those targets from would-be challengers.

And there was always the scope for a club which came into money to break the cartel. Which is EXACTLY how two of those five top clubs (I'm not including Spurs, because that's frankly laughable) got to be in that 5 in the first place. I agree some form of financial control is required, but the way it is shaped at the moment means clubs are encourage to do things like sell home grown product because the profit is all bankable against the rules. How is that a positive thing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely this shit can't be allowed for long? Conglomerates owning the player and just stockpiling them about at different clubs avoiding PSR and wage ratios? This window has been lifting like.

One who could have been a key player with us instead? Perfect demonstration of PSR in action. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
