Betis have just signed Juanmi Jimenez from Sociedad.
Lo Celso replacement?
Lo Celso replacement?
I'm not sure about this deal. Of all the players we've been linked with he's the one I'm less up for.
Nabil Bentaleb
for a cheeky breakdown on if he's shit hot or not?
Maybe because your'e a bit dim?
Go put a £10er on it happening.
You'll get £160 back if it happens.
Juanmi is a forward. Doubt it.
Better than Messi mateI'm not sure about this deal. Of all the players we've been linked with he's the one I'm less up for.
Curses, foiled again
Maybe in the process of spending Lo Celso money though?
What are people's order of preference regarding our CM targets btw? For me...
1) N'dombele
2) Lo Celso
3) Tielemans
4) Van der Beek
5) Bruno Fernandes
1) N'dombele
2) Lo Celso
3) Tielemans
4) Van der Beek
5) Bruno Fernandes
is Eriksen sold in this scenario?
Do you seriously think van der beek and tielemans are better than Fernandes?
I don't think it's as simple as that, they kind of all have different qualities.
N'Dombele for power and drive is number one priority, however Van De Beek would solve that ae old problem we have where we get 30 yards out from goal, grind to a halt and slowly go sideways before going backwards.
Get those two and Lo Celso if Eriksen leaves. If Eriksen stays, put the money into Lozano.
If we get Fernandes then Eriksen is probably gone. Him asking for a transfer 10 days before the final and then his comments about leaving after the final likely decreased Poch's opinion of him. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he's sold regardless.
You cunts seen this?

I just hope its because we got him and not the Fighting Ole Gunnar's
the stadium hire business does not make up for drop of revenue from bad performance: I don't know how much it would be to hire the pitch for sports and concerts, but from the looks of it the PHEX event was in the South Stand for something like £10k per day.
Assuming £5m-£10m in stadium income, compared to the risk of dropping 4 places by neglecting the squad:
£9m less in PL prize money.
Tens of millions less from not being in CL.
Probably lower performance payments from the sponsors.
Lower returns from the corporate box holders.
if Eriksen is sold then:
1. Ndombele. (Capable of allowing us to play 4231, 433, 41212 or 352 comfortably)
2. Lo Celso. (Same as above, only want him if we sign Ndombele or Diawara though)
3. Diawara. (Not a pure CM but important to allow us to attack without a lack of cover)
4. Fernandes. (Can play CM, CAM or out wide if needed)
5. Tielemans. (Weakest in terms of what he can do, but Prem experience)
