With Ange at the helm, the new signings and injured players returning to the squad, I’m sooo looking forward to the remaining matches of the season (and beyond). It’s such a huge contrast to last season.
 
Reading that Luis Enrique isn't pleased with Kolo Muani & Goncalo Ramos...no shit!!! Nearly 100mil each, both earning a sick wage and they producing meh numbers.

RKM has 4 in Ligue 1, a brace against an amateur team in the Coupe and 1 in Europe...that's 7 goals in 20. Ramos has 4 in 19...3 in the league, the other a pen against them amateurs. For context, PSG's new starlet, that Zaire-Emery kid, who is a 17yo DM, has scored 3.

Anyway, seems PSG wanna get rid on loan so they can bring someone else in...and as both players look so unhappy there, there's a deal to be done.

Still very good young players, just playing for a shit club that gives you no time. Kolo was solid under Deschamps in Qatar...speedy fucker, pressed hard, played some good passes. Was terrific at Frankfurt too and can play CF or RW. Ramos was a goal machine at Benfica and done it on the international stage too.

Should Ange feel we need extra cover for Richy or Brennan, could be worth looking into, especially if PSG covers most the wages. But likely we're focusing on CM.
 
Man City and Chelsea next
Really need an optimism button....

Not really true though is it? They carry on as normal for now.

Their investigations are ongoing because there's so much shit to sift through, would you prefer that all other clubs are allowed to get away with rule breaking in the meantime whilst City and Chelsea are dealt with?

Not saying they definitely won't get away with it either, in 2 years maybe you can come on here and bemoan them having gotten away with it, but until their verdicts and punishments are decided it's all hot air.

Those cases are so high profile now though, on the back of Everton and now potentially other clubs being punished for relatively straight forward breaches, that if the FA/PL or whoever is in charge don't throw the book at City/Chelsea, then they will have made an utter mockery of themselves.

It's frustrating that their comeuppance isn't immediate, but unfortunately it's unavoidable.

But Everton broke the rules, they deserve to be punished, as do Forest, Wolves, and Newcastle if they fall foul. I'm actually pleased this is happening, hopefully it puts others off from doing it and puts us in an even better position, as well as City and Chelsea being torpedoed eventually too.
They'll get away with it.
They'll have a 5 minute ban from European football which will quickly be suspended for 5 years with a slap on the wrists.

Unlike the other clubs, City and Chelsea sell the Premier League to gloryhunters overseas.
 
Fucking criminal that Everton have had points taken, Forest were threatened, now Newcastle and Wolves.
But City and Chelsea carry on as normal.

It is but the Everton charge has 28,000 pages for one charge. City have 115 charges and Chelsea potentially have more than 115 charges and fraud from Abramovich and lots of ‘off book payments’’.

As such both City and Chelsea could take 2-4 years to process as it has to go through the proper legal process. It’s fucking annoying that the scale of the cheating is so great that it will take long time to process it.

Chelsea could even face criminal charges as they where apparently paying wages via the Middle East this defrauding the U.K. of tax revenue.

I thought RKM would have been perfect but we signed Johnson who plays best off the right. RKM is a 9 or RWF…
