Village Idiot Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 We're swapping Ciljessen with Neto from Valencia. Odd deal. Anyway, good for Ciljessen. He's class, and deserves to start at a good club instead of warming our bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Wenger refused to change the wage structure and that led to them overpaying bad players who couldn't be sold, and underpaying good players who eventually wanted to leave to be paid better. Over time that resulted in a squad that didn't have enough top-end talent. If he had changed this structure, they would have been able to afford the top-end wages and would have attracted enough top-end talent to keep challenging. Now they've dropped far back from Man Utd's financial power because they haven't challenged for anything seriously in a long, long time. Wenger prioritized cohesion in the squad by making sure everyone was paid well, except that cohesion didn't lead to them winning anything. I wouldn’t call 3 PL titles and 7 FA Cups “didn’t lead to them winning anything” like. He faded badly near the end obviously, but should be remembered as the brilliant manager he was. He became more involved in the financial side over time because he won things and the board respected him. That's when things went awry for them. He should have just stuck to managing the team.

Tribesman Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Atletico Madrid are getting Diego Llorente as a replacement for £40 million. Its a shame they are getting torn apart like this, but I think they needed to refresh the squad anyway. Its probably why Simeone decided to sign a new contract to give the club some stability. I wish they signed Dybala instead of Feliex I think that would have been a smart transfer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did they pay for their new stadium? Weren't they were in dire financial trouble at one point and the construction was held up for years - will they pull a Spurs/Arsenal and re-prioritise funds to pay off that instead?

Imagine Ashley's face He loves it cos he can buy cheap and sell high, when you own a club and your priority is to make money the price of players to improve you means nothing cos for every £75 million Van Dijk you have a £2.5 million Fabion Schar.

Optimistic Nut Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Love the fact Celtic may be losing out on a player from Motherwell, to Norwich. Normally I hate that sort of transfer because of the Sky Premier League cash cow, but when it involves Celtic...fuck ‘em. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
