This guy is an unbelievable keeper, one of the best in the world and potentially best in the league, but by god does he need to improve his fucking distribution
Every goal kick is just a kick, there is no purpose, can't count the amount of times he kicks into touch from a goal kick

International break stories...
This happened on my FIFA career mode, I called it. Then bloody woolwich tried to swoop in and he changed his mind.
Haha like Gareth Bale, he's a lovely lad, settled etc, named his child Dull after the manager..........
we won't challenge never for the title again if we can't pay more than 100k a week to our top players.
You're that empty glass kind of guy aren't you?
It isn't about a set limit of weekly cash. I bet this story is just as valid as the claim that Eriksen wanted 150k. In other words; stories sell papers. Headlines bring money to newspapers.
true. But we have a ceiling on the wages of 100k a week
Claim from the medias, there is nothing official on this. There probably is some kind of limit, but Levy wouldn't go out with it and it will be flexible the coming years and will be slowly raised.
Have no problems with us paying lower, as they get enough and if the money is the sole motivation they aren't right for us anyway.

That 100k ceiling is about 5-6 years old.
The new money deal is in effect. We still don't pay like the other big boys do, but I sincerely doubt that Levy still believes that 100k is our hard cut-off wage ceiling.
LET ME MELT WITHOUT REASON DAMMIT

It's funny... when a player (or his agent) holds out for "Disgusting amount of Money per/week" they're branded a mercenary, and all that's bad about the modern footballer...
and yet, apparently, when they're being offered what is still (let's face it) an enormous - but not in the same ball park as Man City/Chelsea/Real enormous - amount of £££££ per week, they're suddenly 'in dispute' and should be holding out for Disgustingly Rich FC to come along, and stuff their face full of cash...
Why aren't they congratulated for knowing the meaning and value of money, and that earning an already inflated amount per week isn't the be-all-and-end-all, especially when you consider you're playing in front of some people without a job, or who have saved up for weeks/months just to see you playing football!
You can't have it both ways, either some players have some moral values, and actually enjoy playing football (for £80k a week!!) and some just want to follow the mega-rich...
which is it to be?
