Not sure Elon knows I exist, thankfully (though he is a quarter Scouse, believe it or not). Still think my points about Gooey are valid, though.
So…..apparently…. Diaz is off to Saudi Nunez may or may not be off to Napoli Konate ain’t signing an extension Elliott wants first team football Summer sales are about to start $$$
Happy to let Diaz go, think his head was turned a while back only want committed players in the squad. Nunez, I'd except a blow on a ragman's trumpet just to get him off the wage bill.
Bayern CEO Karl–Heinz Rummenigge on players complaining about the packed football calendar: “I get why they’re frustrated — but players and their agents have played a part in this. By constantly demanding higher wages, they’ve pushed clubs to chase bigger revenues. And where does that money come from? More matches. That’s why I believe it’s time for everyone involved to come together and have a calm, rational conversation about how we can bring the game — and the business behind it — back to more balanced and sensible times Does he have a point? Always been split on players moaning. 99% of population pay to go and play a game of football for fun each week. These people are being paid to do something we all wish we could do so can’t complain. However, on other hand for 30 years they have to live their life in strict way, missing out on a lot of stuff during teenage years with no guarantee that will make it. Now being asked to play for about 10 months of the year with limited breaks… However think he makes a valid point. Football has got itself into a vicious circle. Clubs want the best players and to do that have to pay big wages, how can they afford those wages? Only by playing more and more games and new tournaments or pre/post season tours. Rodri was moaning last year about number of games contributing to injuries but do wonder if any point during contract negotiations he said I’ll happily take a lower wage if I’m allowed X number of games off and time off a season? It seems like it’s past the point of no return though as salaries aren’t going down and only way clubs can continue to afford to pay those top wages is to make more money….
