Looks like Fekir is off to AC Milan, for about £30m Liverpool were sniffing around him for about £50m last summer?
The poor bastard probably heard how the Mousers pronounced his name, and the experience so startled him that he decided to "stay the fekir away!"
We werent sniffing mate, he'd completed the first interview. Not sure what happened but not signing him was clearly a huge mistake #6
Top 4 shoe-ins You finished behind a Chelsea team that were run by a new manager who played his best players out of position in a style that the were obviously not suited to and finished one point (1 ****ing point) ahead of a team that had a new manger who's hands were tied by the previous managers poor recruitment. You were almost caught by a team that were in total turmoil for the first half of the season and brought a temporary manager in to calm the ship (did a great job for the most part). If that was a shoe-in after previously finishing 2nd, then 3rd and now 4th (with very little competition) god help you if other teams get some stability
We just took our foot off the pedal once we realised you lot done a runner when you had a whiff of the top four. We knew top four was then more or less a certainty as Arsenal were guaranteed to **** up leaving only us and Chelsea to complete the pack.. Our own fault for making it look close. Hopefully we learn from that
No one bar city of liverpool deserved to qualify for the top 4 last season after that clusterfuck of a seasons ending
Yeah but that’s what makes it so much sweeter knowing we were ****ing dogshit and still got in top four. Though that said, if we’re that bad again next season we need shooting.
Chelsea set to sign Kovacic on a permanent deal (they’re allowed to do that as it was a stipulation in the loan contract prior to their ban). Supposedly €50m so around £45m I think. Chelsea fans, happy with that? Never really impressed whenever I watched him last season. If I had the choice of giving more game time to RLC or spending £45m on Kovacic I’d definitely take option A. Big fan of RLC, would happily have him at Spurs.
