The General Football Thread

Don’t really care now WBA are out, Leeds would’ve been the worst by miles so them Bielsa-ing the second half of the season and last night is glorious

 

I don´t hold any grudges against whoever makes it to the PL. The top 6 in the PL is enough to have a grudge against, and it is to be celebrated when any of them are beaten by a team from 7th down.

 

Anyone that you think Ralph should pluck from Leeds? The striker Kemar Roofe, for example?

 

I haven't watched them all that much this year tbf, only a handful of times. I lived in Leeds for a few years so I do have a few mates who are season ticket holders there and they all rave about Hernandez, he is 34 though. From what I have seen they have a couple of young players who look decent, Clarke and Shackleton, but I'd imagine they would be pretty expensive and maybe not too keen on the move this early in their careers.

I've never really got the hype around Jannson but most people rave about him so I'm probably missing something

 

Thanks.!! I get the WBA connection with JayRod. Anyone in that team? Personally, I would love Abraham. And if Derby fail to get to the PL, what about Mason Mount for a season on loan? Chelsea may well want to see how he maps out in the PL.

 

Haven't watched WBA at all this season apart from the 2nd leg vs Villa which was a weird game so really can't comment on any of their players. I have always liked Rondon though, but I imagine Newcastle will be signing him permanently

 

Man City could be facing a ban from the Champions League after being referred to UEFA's financial body.

 

That's as good as giving them the Premiership title for another year then.

 

Or not as they might not be able to atract the kind of players needed if banned from the CL. Pesonally, I feel it is witch-hunt against City. So what if they are funded by the Qatari rich boys. The top 6 are funded by fans all around the world and in due course, City´s following may well reach a similar level if they can maintain their current level of success, so they won´t need so much "financial doping."

 

Haven't PSG been up to similar antics?

This could be interesting?

 

I hope the police track the coward down and throw the book at him.

 

Interesting? Not the word I'd use for that. Disturbing, horrifying, disgusting are more appropriate I would say.

 

A lot of us don't like PFC but none of us condone this sort of behaviour.

 

Mount at Saints? He’s pretty close to JWP but I don’t think he’d choose us... too blue!

 

Abu Dhabi, not Qatar.

 

Qatar don't fund football but Abu Dhabi do according to Fred Flintstone. (with due acknowledgements to a joke posted on here a little while back)
