Summer Transfer window

Anyone know much about Sarri? Never really heard of the bloke before up until he was linked with their job.

Surprised Chelsea have got rid of Conte, top manager.
Don't think Conte wanted it tbh. Apparently Sarri has a rep for attractive football, but we'll see.
 
... <laugh> we said exactly the same Bobbysox (only difference was he could have played Champions League if he'd stayed with us ... not Europey <whistle>) . if PSG follow up their interest he'll be off quicker than you can say "I really should read what people actually post"...

Don't PSG have FFP issues and that's why they can't buy Mbappe outright?

They have to raise about 100m before they buy anyone don't they?

Problem with FFP is that for clubs like PSG it won’t really bother them.

Worst that could possibly happen to them is:
A) a fine - peanuts for them.
B) transfer ban for a year or two which will end up getting appealed and likely reduced.
C) point deduction... they’ll still walk Ligue 1.

Ban from the CL
 
Haven't Milan been banned from EL? Must be first big club to get that level of punishment.

I would have given Conte another season to see if he could adapt after we got found out last year although his conservatism did my head in last year.

Dunno much about Sarri but if he can get us playing anywhere near the way Napoli did then i'll be all for it. Saying that, i think he stumbled onto that formation after his big guy milik got injured and he chucked mertens in the false 9 role a few years back.

Heard he hasn't won anything so we might be onto poch mk 2

yeah but the only difference is that he also got paid proper money rather than Levy money. Makes a big difference.

Plus the PL is the peak than a shambolic Ligue 1.

Now if someone like barca and real came sniffing instead.....
 
Shaqiri set for a medical, fee of about £13M is good business. He'll need to up his game to get in the team on a regular basis though.

Probably knows he won’t be a starter. But he’s likely guaranteed minutes in every game so I suppose that’s better than playing for Stoke. Anything’s better than playing for Stoke tbh.

Vestergaard to Saints. Good signing, we’ve been linked with him a couple times in different windows. Should improve their defence and make them a tidy profit in two years time once Pool offer another £75m.

Don't know much about Vestergaard but a 6 ft 7 CB doesn't sound like somebody who will do well in the Prem, hopefully I am wrong.
