I'm sure there will be lots of scouse screaching over the Origi pen but Yoshida should've had one in the first half.
 
Boro close to getting Jese on loan from PSG.

Good number of teams were after him in the summer and were willing to pay upwards of £20m to Madrid before he took the Paris move.
 
I'm trying to work out which is more satisfying: Los Ladrones getting dumped out of the Copa del Rey by Celta Vigo, or Los Ladrones pissing away €6m in legal fees to try and bully €20,000 in damages out of a Catalan TV station for, among other things, depicting Pepe as Hannibal Lecter - only for the Spanish Supreme Court to tell them to piss off.

Pepe has also told them to piss off, as he's off to China in the summer, by all accounts.
Hebei China Fortune FC (seriously) have offered him about £250k p/w to join.
He'll be alongside Ezequil Lavezzi, Stephane M'bia, Gervinho's massive head and Ou Ya.

It's a shame he's a goalkeeper, otherwise they could play this every time he scores...

The China league still haven't signed that "poster child" player still in
their prime that would have the massive PR effect.

What chance of say one of the current Barca front 3, CR7 etc ending up
there in the next 2 seasons ??

Ronaldo strikes me as the type to have too much pride to ever make such a move, even at the very end of his career. He cares deeply about his image and reputation. Wouldn't put it past the tax-evading toad at Barca though.

Could you narrow it down a bit, please?
I'm not sure how the club or it's senior figures haven't faced charges on it, to be honest.
Conspiracy to commit tax evasion, perhaps?

Dodging an estimated €150m in taxes by funneling them to the British Virgin Islands says that the Oily Rat isn't that interested in his image or reputation...
