    I guess because UEFA see clubs competing in Europe as a sides who get more global exposure, TV money, hence the knocking of more revenue compared to sides outside europe. Surely the UEFA cap should be based on having the players you register for their competitions wage cap equal 70% but you can have the 85% for domestic competition? That to me is a balanced compromise.

    IIf I look at that chart that Maguire tweeted it's all about certain levels and current squad strength as well. So we can spend £211m compared to, say, Everton who can spend £250m, or Brentford who can spend £353m. However, for what these clubs need to spend to get to where we are you'd say they'll get short changed, whereas for our £211m and the revenue from CL, Adidas and Betano sponsorship and more, we can buy fewer players but higher quality as the squad is at such a higher level, along with a higher level manager and coaching staff. We've players out long term to come back as well. We're now at the level in fairness Spurs should have been over the period it's took us to get up and get to this level of competing, ie great squad and now can have a summer and January strategy. Hell we've shown this season we have... A couple of big deals in the summer and look at gems in January. The plan is in place, as shown this season by the Don and Monchi. They won't be phased by these new changes. They've an obvious plan. Rogers is proof of that. And if you're a player. Do you join champions league Aston Villa and play for Emery or Everton and Dyche or Brentford and Frank having seen how much Emery improves you as a player. Look at Ollie, Dibu, Dougie, the quick rise of Rogers JJ, I could go on. We'll be fine.

    The key to this chart is, okay, let's say we can spend £211m compared to say, Everton spending £250m, I know who I'd rather trust to find bargains and unearth gems, Monchi and Don Unai. Plus we're putting things in place to raise revenue anyway. It's crap but there are ways round it with great recruitment for one. It's what Monchi does.

    I'm hoping it's precautionary considering Olsen will be starting against Olympia is so resting Dibu and giving Olsen game time makes sense.

    We've guaranteed Europa league with that point and have every chance of champions league. With this squad that has already been depleted before kick off. It is a superb season no matter what happens in the next 3 games plus the European games.a Let us appreciate the incredible job done this season.

    Target Cucurella and it'll be a cricket score

    I feel a Youri rocket goal tonight.
  13. stewiek2
    It's exactly the starting lineup if had gone with. Solidity in midfield and Youri or meatball getting forward is exactly what the Don has gone for and what I would have gone for. Diaby off the bench when they are tiring.

    Bailey versus Cucurella

    It puts pressure on them and really puts us in the driving seat. Psychology is a big thing in the final stretch of a season. A win tonight would be huge.

    I know but the Don has shown with us it's stages of building. He's destroyed the myth of Europe and club football can't be handled *cough Newcastle* as he knows how to deal with it. Players will be even more used to it next season so I'm not concerned about either Europa or champions league and league football balance as we've shown we can handle it. He's shown that he learns from defeats, from blips, so I expect us to be stronger next season even before reinforcements. And last season shows, as it seems this season does, thar he knows how to finish our seasons strongly. Perfect understanding of looking after the players energy levels, especially in-game.

    We lost twice to that gutter sack of shit side
  18. stewiek2
    Jaysus Everton v Brentford is like watching a championship game. If the Don ever left I want Frank nowhere near our club.

    4 games left and European football guaranteed this week without playing a game, and both times meant we went from conference league to Europa league. Let's end the weekend with champions league practically guaranteed. We've 4 games left and cannot drop below 5th, have European competition next season guaranteed. And we have the chance to win a European trophy this season with so many key players missing. It will be a disgrace if they give manager of the season to anyone but the Don.

    95-96 season we got 4th. I was living in Bournemouth at the time.

    Oi back off. She's mine!
  22. stewiek2
    Preserving their huge plus 1 goal difference as well. Theatre of dreams I tell yer.
  23. stewiek2
    And Sheffield United will have that brakes off no pressure that a relegated side has so they really have nothing at stake so can play with freedom so who knows.
  24. stewiek2
    Top 5 and Europe league guaranteed for next season. No way we drop a 20+ goal difference to Manure.
  25. stewiek2
    Manure draw guarantees us top 5!
