the proverbial slammer. Football slammer.

Let’s connect the dots here - deals taking exceptionally long to complete this summer?

Levy who was supposed to be taking a step back holding the reins again?

Using Pini Zahavi to broker the Kane deal?

No outgoings in over 50 days?

I wonder why that might be. Could it be because our director of football is a criminal and is officially banned from the sport?

He is not banned from the sport.

He is banned from being a executive. He is still allowed to work as a scout. Which he is doing for us on a consultancy basis.

You don't have a correct understanding of what "criminal" means.

Also you don't have a correct understanding of Paratici's punnishment.... .He's not "officially banned from the sport".

Why wouldn’t the Ange brand work in the PL?

Is this similar to people saying Pep’s brand wouldn’t work in the PL?

You can try and replicate Pep's style of play but you need players of a similar quality to what he has. Postecoglou's approach might work but the idea that any one manager has found a formula that can't be countered probably doesn't hold up. Remember when Bielsa was at Leeds? A very aggressive attacking approach that caught the league off guard for awhile and then the league adjusted and Bielsa didn't. Postecoglou should have some success with his approach. The league will adjust to it and either Postecoglou will adjust or he'll be somewhere else in a few years.

One can't help but get hopeful now......

CP interested in Dier & Spence..... Either could bring the price down and save CP a few quid vs the QPR 20% sell on clause.

Said before... Shame Gil isn't fit enough to loan them as a makeweight... Would work well for both clubs.


PEH & 1 or Spence or Dier sold and more than half the fee is covered. Get in there, Lev-meister!

He is banned from representing the club publicly in transfer negotiations, that I can be absolutely sure of, and he is officially banned from the sport by FIFA. He also officially resigned from his position I might add.

Look I know everyone is all warm and fuzzy over the fact that we employ a fraudster coz he’s good at scouting players (which is a joke to begin with), but that’s only half of his job.

We are CRYING OUT for someone to handle negotiations and do deals this summer but good ol Fab is banned from fulfilling that obligation.

That is a fact.
