That all sounds very Boris Johnson and his misses.
No, you've not missed anything.
The player wanted to play more games, so he asked Fabio to send him out on loan. But because Fabio has no brains, he didn't think that it'd be best to send little Bryan on loan to another PL club. If he had, maybe he could've rung round to see if a So'ton, Palace, Norwich, Burnley or Brentford were keen on welcoming him and giving him a few games.
Something tells me there'd have been interest. And all would've been great for all involved.
But no, Fabio rang Valencia or Valencia rang Fabio (more likely) and he said yes sure. Will do nothing to help little Bryan become big Bryan ready for the English game, but oh well
Let’s look at that for past 5 years.
PL
2017- Chelsea. - Oligarch
2018 - Manchester City- Country
2019 - Manchester City - Country
2020 - Liverpool - Not dirty
2021 - Manchester City - Country
So 4 dirty owners and one non dirty owner.
CL
2017 - Real Madrid
2018 - Real Madrid
2019 - Liverpool
2020- Bayern
2021 - Chelsea
So you have two super clubs way bigger than us. Liverpool, who beat us in the final. And dirty Chelsea. Doesn’t seem like we should be competing with these clubs.
Maybe FA Cup?
2017 - Woolwich (beating Chelsea)
2018 - Chelsea , dirty
2019 - Manchester City, dirty
2020 - Woolwich (beating Chelsea)
2021 - Leicester city (beating Chelsea)
That has a better chance for us but in the last 5 years it’s either been won by a dirty money club or the winner has beaten Chelsea. About that…
Even the shitting league cup has been won by Chelsea or City in 7 out of the 8 last seasons! Twice against us…
So the end result is, the two dirty money clubs almost always win everything (10 out of the last 15 domestic trophies), except in Europe where super clubs win too.

So let me get this straight, you don't know if there were actual offers and you're arguing over a scenario that you have no idea whether it happened or not?
No I am arguing that if we loan him it should be in England as he has the skills but needs to mentally/physically adapt to football/life here.
As for no idea I very much doubt that a championship club or even someone like Norwich would refuse Gil given he would be an upgrade on what they have.
There are other trophies , League Cup ? Europa League …. Primark European Conference ? Two of them none of oil teams are even in
Your FA Cup has 3 of 5 being none oil teams & 4 of 5 in the CL
It's pretty normal once an offer has been accepted by the club for the agent to frantically call everyone in his rollerdex to see if there are any better offers.
Liverpool are a more attractive prospect for most players. As are Barca, Real, United, Athletico, PSG, Juventus, Munich, Chelsea, City.
Madness not to keep that option at the club. At least until the summer and then review
I’ve now edited to include league cup. 7 out of past 8 winners were Chelsea or Man City.
10 out of last 15 domestic trophies won by two dirty clubs. That will get worse when Newcastle rise.
I think the average fans manages to underestimate how much of an impact that dirty money has had on the chances of success for everyone else.
Everyone talks about the big 6 but only the best Liverpool team for a generation has managed to make a dent in their PL dominance. One of those two teams have reached every domestic final in the past 5 years. You either beat a financially doped side in a final or they win it.
The champions league final was those two teams last year.
If you can’t see the impact not just money but DIRTY money has had over the past 5 -10 years then I can’t help you.
City, Chelsea and Liverpool are bolted on for top 3.
We are United's biggest rival.
100%.
Compared to some of the wage thiefs in this club.
Absolute scandal if it comes to this.
I’m not a big fan but it was a really good show last night
Great post.
Course people can't because they have myopia.
It doesn't however excuse our rubbish decisions or failure to develop our players or complete absence of a coherent strategy.

How can we compete with this, when this is what dirty Russian Oligarch money gets you.
