Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Compared to subscriptions and game break advertising I’m not convinced SSN is the golden egg laying goose like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I think Sky would be more worried with the lack of transfers in that it will result in fewer 'names' being signed from abroad as they have no resale value once they hit 26/27 which makes the league less marketable overall. And then social media takes over and Tik Tok becomes the primary medium for consumption of output Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I'll bet we are glad we did now. Spending that sort of money on a centre back is looking increasingly dubious as the PSR shackles kick in. It would have prevented us spending money for a long time on other areas without selling key players. The transfer market is well and truly bunged up thanks to PSR. Transfer fees will be on a downward trend in this country at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I'm not as convinced about this as some of you. They challenge for the title (poorly, ok) and are in the CL every year. There's no real reason why Isak wouldn't go there for the right money. They can't afford him though, so it's moot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 For all the Isak talk it’s Sesko they went for in the summer, and I expect them to go for him again. I suppose it’s not a rumour that creates as much engagement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine a world where PSR is removed. PIF finally wake up and are able to spend at will. We have a bigger ceiling than Arsenal - even if they are bigger right now. Saka is still very young. If Arteta gets binned, they could drop off a bit if they don't get his successor right. Meanwhile we have a strong English core, Gordon on the other flank, Tino behind him. Englands first choice left side and right side pairing for WC 2026. Jobs a good un. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
