If Bayern get Xavi Simons they won't go for Doue. But then PSG may go for Doue :cool:

Shame he's not interested in coming here. Has fucking magic dust in his boots.

One thing I'd say is that he scored yesterday but vanished afterwards a bit. I'd seen games in the past and he'd been a willing presser to get the ball back. Yesterday for long spells he wasn't bothered. Maybe Lange and Ange see them same more than I had done before.


Dutch should have picked Summerville instead of Malen or one of their other forwards. If you have Zirkzee you don't need a donkey like Weghorst
 
It’s insane that this hasn’t been agreed yet.

He’s a woefully average player. We don’t want him. Our manager doesn’t want him. He wants to leave.

At what point do Milan just tell us to fuck off?

They would have told us ages ago if they didn't want him.

The fact is they do and putting in paltry bids under his value isn't gonna cut it, they know exactly what they're doing.

AC Milan are skint as hell.

They've been taken over by an American investment fund that want to run them as cheaply as possible while still being competitive.

They have a lot of money owed to Chelsea for loans that have turned into permanents. So they are hoping to get Emerson as cheaply as possible.
 
Hey if England would’ve just gotten knocked out early, Ese would probably already be a Spurs player

Really think so?

60m in a lump ? Sounds nothing like Levy to me.

Tbh I think even City pay that much in one go. Eze stays at Palace imo but I’d love it if it did happen.

Get one of Neto or Doue as well. Whichever one they think is the best option. We need 2 class attacking players minimum.

Apparently he's a LB who can also play as a winger.
 
Right ok

I’ve never heard of him and was sent the post

Nothing on SC either apart from a begging post from Archibald and Crooks asking for more funds to run the site

Loads of them signed up donating between £5-20!
Some even starting PayPal accounts to pay monthly ffs!
Genuinely baffles me.. power to em but people having monthly donations set up blows my mind.

I don’t know the details but A & C sends out these begging letters a couple of times each year and lots of their posters respond with donations

How does anyone know that it all goes to running the site?
 
I'm sure it's already been discussed multiple times, but olmo with a £50m release clause looks a bit of a steal doesn't it? Been one of the players of the tournament.
I'm guessing repeated differing injuries could be why no one is going hard for it.

I suspect they're 50ish year old single men with very limited social awareness.
All I hope, is that they're flush enough to be able to afford it and aren't struggling before their next pay day.

How so many people have been so convinced that nameless faceless tossers on an Internet forum have better info than media outlets who put both names and faces to their stories is beyond me.

And to then be convinced that giving money away is cool and makes them good is even more amazing to me.

Then again, there's thousands of people who have been convinced the earth is flat, so I guess this isn't that out there really.

If it’s a release clause that still needs to be paid in a lump sum?

If it does that’s still a massive dent in the rest of the things we can do this summer.

If you sign a 50m player on a 5 year deal, you can pay it over 5 years (roughly). So only 10m out of the budget this summer.

You pay the release clause on the 50m player in one go that’s like committing to 5x 50m players. It’s the kind of thing you do when your squad needs one final piece to tip you over the edge to win things.

We need the 5 players more than we need 1. IMO that is. I’m not expert*

* stupid fucking caveat you have to put on every opinion now because some dickheads want to police opinions on here

Reading through the thread I think you’re right as some of the posters admit that they couldn’t function without the site and they’re getting regularly fleeced because of it
