It's becoming apparent that sacking Ange may have had something to do with Levy's absolute lack of desire to spend. Frank is a compliant new boy who won't say anything derogatory.
hmmmm I said this would happen.

I was one of the first Ange out posters on here but at the end I actually wanted him to stay(if we couldn't get a proven winner) because I fucking knew his insistence on publicly stating he wanted proven players brought in was what got him sacked and not the shitty league position.
 
Isnt there any top argentinian players we can sign realistically? Theyve done us proud since ossie and villa.

Will be sad to see him go. Almost as sad as seeing us not adequately replace him.

Hand on heart, I low-key swear I started this rumor.

I was an LAFC season ticket holder for their first three seasons of existence before I moved away from LA.

I actually lived in Koreatown (adjacent) for almost a decade.

To be clear, this move would be massive for LAFC/MLS, but I actually think Son could still do well at a Serie A/La Liga/Bundesliga club.
 
If Son and Richy both go we need another winger and striker.
So Sonny might be off to LA. I wonder if he could arrange, as part of the deal, that Solanke, Maddison, Johnson, Benny and Bissouma could join him?

Wishful thinking I know, but our front line is bang average and we should have identified this before the season was over and had plans in place to refresh/renew them. Maddison is a 7/10 every 6 games and Benny is not the same player since his injury.

We want (apparently) to win The EPL and The CL. Not in a million years! We will be lucky to qualify for Europe with players of this calibre starting week in, week out.

Close to 130-50m I'd say to off-load this 6. I'm pretty sure there might be another 100m lying around to add to this, allowing us to go and freshen up the whole squad with....

Watkins. 50m
Jackson. 65m
Elliot. 50m
Robinson. 50m
Palhiniha. 20m
Those 5 to freshen us up…..really setting sights high
 
Corrected your list.
UCL Squad of 21 can consist of maximum 21 Association Players + 0 HNG, 20 Assoc + 1 NHG, 19 + 2, 18 + 3 etc down to 4 +17 NHG. 17 is the maximum NHG players allowed.

Club Trained (1)
Austin
Association Trained (6) (maximum 21)
Spence, Davies, Gray, Maddison, Johnson, Solanke

NHG (23) (maximum 17)
Vicario, Kinsky
Porro, Udogie, Romero, VDV, Danso, Dragusin, Vuskovic, Takai
Bissouma, Bentancur, Sarr, Kulusevski, Bergvall
Kudus, Yang, Gil, Solomon, Odobert, Tel
Son, Richarlison

List B - Lankshear, Devine and Scarlett and most of the Academy players.

Current squad is 6 HG and 23 NHG =29.
Maximum allowed is 21.


So at least 8 players need to be chopped from NHG list.
Or potentially 7 NHG and Davies.
I can't see any other of the association players being left out.
that is crazy bad. we don't have one actual club home grown player playing for us, really hits home when you see it in black and white.
 
He’ll get out at some point, just not to us.

Juve, Chavs, Dippers, Bayern - someone will come in for him.
Bayern spending almost what it would take to get Rodrygo to sign Luis Diaz for the same position definitely causes me to question whether Rodrgyo is actually available, but who knows.

And again, let me not let cynicism act as cover for the bare facts of the situation: we have more available financial capacity right now than the clubs you listed.
