Tiresias Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Clubs in leagues that can't compete with premier league trying to do so by scouting younger and scouting better to bring in future talent they can then sell back to the premier league for massive profits so they can be at all competitive with them when it comes to european competition is the answer :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love booing, catcalling, all that stuff as soon as the opposition get the ball. Never seen the point in doing it to your own. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 (edited) Burn, Targett, Gordon, Miggy & Murphy Can see Tonali getting flack if he doesn't quickly replicate his world class performance against Rangers, a testimonial game for Alan McGregor the second week of preseason.

Like I said, I'm pretty sure it doesn't apply to u-18. The athletic article summed it up quite well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 We know FFP is holding us back. So I don’t understand the constant links to the established PL players and English youngsters. They all come with premiums. I like Anderson but he was available 2 years ago for 7m. It would take about £40m to get him from Palace. We can’t do better for £40m abroad?
