You forgot the my chairman

You are giving me ideas.
You are giving me ideas.
Chairman on a Budget
Takai signed, the fee was low,
Ben stays on — no need to go.
No flashy deals, no diamond spoons,
Levy drinks in Wetherspoons.
He skips the brands, avoids the frown,
Gets loyalty points at Poundland town.
Aldi’s aisle is his domain,
Where bargains flow like London rain.
And come Noël, with quiet knocks,
His wife unwraps… another pair of socks.
The last line is so perfect , I can’t help but think this is the music score to the next Amazon documentary. At Home With The LevysYou are giving me ideas.

So?
The money they are offering now is what they will have to pay next summer.
And there might be another team interested next summer. They pay or risk a bigger fish coming in.
99% chance Romero stays now
We’ve got LevyAnother day another peom! The poems keep on coming until we spend 50m+ on a player!
Levy Shops at Aldi
Takai in, for half the fee,
No gold-plated VIP.
Ben stays on — it’s cost-effective,
Levy’s plan? Purely selective.
No Gucci deals or spending benders,
He gets his signings from the enders.
While rivals blow cash wild and loudly,
Our chairman shops — you guessed it — Aldi.
99%? Extremely wishful thinking. I think it's 50/50. We shall see
We've got Van der Ven, Danso, Dragusin, Vuskovic, Phillips, Dorrington, and Takai as CB options after Romero.
We've got seen them play in a non-dumb-as-fuck tactical setup yet for defenders, so if VDV's hammys get a respite then we'll be stacked with at least 2 very good CBs, never mind a ton of high potential younger ones.
Romero only needed a 'replacement' in the Ange system, and - let's be honest - for a half a season or 2 weeks either side of an Argie match

back to Argentina then, hopefully he impresses and we can get a few pennies . Scouting team seemed to have had a mare on this one
I still think he's got something and the loans have fucking wrecked his development tbh. Curious if permanent option is part of the loan deal?
Was really impressed with his movement off the ball. Was a punt after the U20 World Cup, but has the club done him right really?
Agreed. Maybe he was a bit too raw but you could see why we went for him as a prospect. The injury was also prime unlucky.I thought he looked alright when he came on for us. Never really got a chance.
