A treble won under a suspended European ban for cheating.... a ban they managed to duck through dirty lawyers delaying the evidence.

Everything that man's ever won sits under a cloud of skulduggery<laugh>

Cheating being having the money to buy the better players? ... terrible crime that ... nobody else has ever done it <whistle>

Peeps thinking Pep will soon be off need a rethink - he's building another dynasty ...

Marmoush is their 3rd signing of the window after Khusanov and Reis and it looks like Juma Bah is to be their fourth - all young but with already proven quality ...

That would take their spending north of £150 million in this window, so they are obviously not concerned about future PSR FFP either ...

Expecting this from Sucky sometime soon ...

Marmoush looks like a bargain at £59m too. He’s a cracking player who is dangerous in a number of positions.

Forest preparing a £60m bid for Cunha too. Hoping we would have signed him. Forest will be definite CL contenders (if they are not alrrsdy) if they get him.

Edu is sporting director at Forest now (after he’s finished his gardening leave with us) I’m expecting them to do big things in the transfer market from now on.
 
Pep on the offensive desperately trying to buy his genius back.


Meanwhile slots showing how a proper coach gets the best out of what he's got.

Forest will win the league ...


... then the FA / PL will step in - dock them points under contrived PSR / FFP rules ... and it will be just enough points to hand Liverpool a second title with an asterisk <whistle>

Marmoush stats prior to this season aren't anything to write home about

£59m for a player who was moving on a free transfer two years ago is never going to be a 'bargain'

Depends on 'why' he was moving on a free - plenty have run down contracts to facilitate a move more to their choice and maximise a signing on fee - doesn't mean they're crap ...

why would they be? They've spent much less than Chelsea, Arsenal and United have over the last 3 years, whilst also being successful. I think even we may have a higher net spend than City atm.

But that's because they accumulated their team expensive stars years ago so haven't need to buy them again recently - just sporadic refreshing. Take inflation into account and they've got fourteen players in their current squad that cost at least 50m euros. (Marmoush, Gvardiol, Nunes, Doku, Haaland, Phillips, Grealish, Dias, Ake, Rodri, Walker, Silva, Stones, KDB). And then take into account all the other big money players they've bought ages ago and then, for quite a lot of them, sell and use those funds to shout out about 'low net spend' (Sane, Jovetic, Dzeko, Sterling, Otamendi, Jesus, Mendy, Mahrez, Cancelo, Danilo, Torres, Alvarez).

Liverpool have eight current 50m+ euro players (Szoboszlai, Nunez, Diaz, Jota, Alisson, Konate, VVD, Salah).

Arsenal have five (Rice, Havertz, Partey, White, Jesus).

To try and claim some sort of moral high ground of 'look at their low net spend' or 'they've spent less than Arsenal and United' when said team is filled with £1bn+ worth of bought talent is disingenuous.

City have spent absolutely loads and are no doubt going to get no charges whatsoever for doing so. Ah well.

Yes, City spent massively, and won the Premier league twice before FFP, whereas you hadn't won it in a decade and were barely qualifying for the CL, yet manage to spend far more than anyone bar Chelsea. Arsenal lost their big players for nothing, whereas City financed Haaland with the PROFIT from selling their **** to you.

FFP is a complete farce - a modern measure (purposefully or not) which ensures ongoing big club domination by stifling competition from clubs with ambitious owners who have bottomless pockets - a domination rooted in spending the most since football went professional and wage caps were removed - I blame Jimmy Hill <whistle>
