    I'd settle for a sign asking for a ticket. I'd even offer them Pouchies lass as a trade.

    How would it work with them owning PSG too? IF they met in a final isn't that a conflict?

    Arsenal will finish 3rd, at best. Man U won more or less every game they were crap in, only a matter of time before they start dominating like they did vs Leeds and Forest. They'll have an exceptional end of season, just hope they have one more off day.

    Spurs, don't know. On their day they're ok, but too often they're weak. L'pool surely can't get up a head of steam, they're just not good enough. Chelsea will start to become difficult to beat and will be nailed on for top 4 next season.

    We look the worst of all 7 clubs at the top. In fact we look a lot worse than Brighton at the moment. And rightly so - their squad depth is ludicrous in comparison, even Brighton because of excellent scouting. Concerned that in over a year, we've signed Kuol and pretty much no-one else - and he's nowhere near the levels of Caicedo or Estupinan.

    I feel like a bit of old Newcastle will creep back in and we'll end up in the worst Euro conference, persevere with our 2 players per window transfer method and find next season quite difficult.

    I have been wrong in the past, though. Approx. 98.5% of the time.

    They don't. Different legal entities snd named owners, so they can get around it.

    I thought you couldn't even own two clubs in the same competition, but then how would anyone explain RB Leipzig and RB Salzburg?!

    Silly man. They are two completely separate entities:
    Qatar Sports Investments (the PSG owner) is owned by the Emir of Qatar Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani,
    Qatar Investment Authority (the Man Utd bidder) is the sovereign investment fund of Qatar. This was established by Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani but is now run by Mansoor Bin Ebrahim Al-Mahmoud.

    So they should clear any owners and related entities investigation easily.

    It's completely utterly moraly wrong!

    How can somebody be allowed to own more than one account in the same competition.

    Can anyone really watch Man City the same? I mean, I don't know how anyone can watch them and think "yeah, this is a legitimate football team". You can't possibly praise their play, or anything about them - surely everybody is just looking thinking "these ****ers shouldn't even be here".

    holy **** that is a ****ing AWFUL AWFUL decision. You will never see a worse penalty decision in your life.

    I mean, i'm fine with it! It's anti-City, and they suck balls, but it was laughably bad. Think the PL might be out to get them.

    Oh yes. Get your popcorn ready, there will be tears. It will all somehow be the ref's fault.
