more on the oddity of city's transfers thus far. remember the Premier League’s profit and financial sustainability rules allow clubs to lose a maximum £105m over a three-year period before they face sanctions. Remember everton have been on this similar track City losses in 2020 126mil City profit in 2021 2.4mil City net spend in 21/22 121mil - 84.5mil = 36.5mil. Are they going to how a loss or profit with all the fake revenues for 2022? this summer thus far: Spend 98mil on Phillips and haaland. Sold 60mil thus far with 3 players going and have ake and sterling supposed to go to chelsea. thats spoosedly 41mil for ake (according to city wanting all their money bakc) and 30 odd for sterling (hard to say sofar) this puts city in an odd position of having actually made 33 mil on transfers if they all work out. net net is city are down a couple players still. Haaland replaced aguero who was not replaced before. (this cost them in the cups last year for sure) No replacement for jesus Phillips in theory replaces Fernandinho No replacement for ake no replacement for sterling. Surely they will move in the market soon?
Julian Ward has officially begun his duties as Liverpool’s new sporting director and already made a big impression, so who is he and what does he bring to the role? When Liverpool announced that, as expected, Michael Edwards would be vacating his role on the expiry of his contract this summer, there were concerns among supporters.

After Journalists in Spain continuously slated Gareth Bale for not speaking Spanish, ... first thing he does when signing for LAFC is speak perfect Spanish. ****housery at its absolute finest
We have to remember bale was given 30 odd mil per year for 5 years so he has rinsed 150mil out of that club He never scored 20 league goals for them and only got 20+ total once. 3 league titles and 5 cls. Like.... given the paid more than Ronaldo and a world record fee AND massive wages his return is pathetic in performances and he got carried. The press were savage cos he was ****e and milked it down. How real decided to not let him and his 600k a week wage go to china I don't know. They ended up absolutely hosed for 3 years and that includes a pretty bang average loan to spurs.
Anyone else half watching the wonens football. It just really shows the difference between pro and amateur as there's so many teams getting their heads handed to them. It does just smack a little of too big too soon like the world cup was. You've power house teams torturing amateurs which I dont think is all that helpful. We've seen the pointlessness of San Marino and such Gibraltar doing the same in men's game but the difference here is you've bigger population countires getting hockey ed as their game is less developed.
was the first game of women’s football that I’d watched all the way through (apart from a little nap half way through the second half) - Norway were shocking and totally rattled. England tore them apart to be fair but as far as level goes, it reminded me of watching my lad play at 15….there was commonly mismatched games with clueless teams…..and the mistakes were very similar.
Our good friends/hated chavs have agreed the fee for AKE. They are looking at koulibaly as well. the random scattergun stuff is continuing.
Salah has skinned koibaly more times than Harry.maguire amazingly. He'd be no upgrade on rudiger that for sure. Neither will ake.be.
He’s been talking about a move for last 4 years. Linked with everyone every year and napoli always wanting massive price. No huge surprise with 1 year left on deal and at 31 finally moved on to get 1 final contract.
