  1. in this new era of Profit & Sustainability FFP (& the new rules coming in), no club can afford to have that mindset. Man City do it each summer, consistently revolving their squad. Spurs were able to spend a ton due to the Kane sale. Man United & Arsenal haven't had a lot of major sales in the last few years and they are constricted with spending because of it (Arsenal did sell a few in the past summer, though).
  2. semantics, he's not the CEO. he's the "President of Business Operations". That title is interesting, because to me he is therefore mostly responsible for any financial decisions the club makes, but other things don't fall under his remit (unless it is a business decision". Splitting up Purslow's responsibilities between Unai, Monchi, & Heck was an interesting choice though tbf.
  3. Agreed, he’d cost a club record fee. Not sure about Vermeeren though.
  4. João Neves is one that quite intrigues me
  5. thinking of trying a lower league save in Portugal.
  6. Mainoo not getting a second yellow for trying to pull a Rodri tactical foul, and Douglas doesn't go down. Varane stopping a counter and no yellow (or that the ball gets booted away and nothing). Even the commentators over here were saying how is that not a yellow and others are
  7. Well Anthony Taylor showing inconsistency with that yesterday. He's the one (iirc) that gave the Jota pen vs Newcastle a few weeks ago and that is similar imo to the Forest one yesterday.
  8. and Blackburn appoint John Eustace
  9. Going to a Betis game in a few weeks. Excited to see how the atmosphere compares to a PL match
  10. Bailey the only one to come out of that game with any credit for me.
  11. it's our first loss with him as the center ref. Brooks has usually been one of the best in the league tbf
  12. I think it was clear that he was/is not going anywhere this transfer window. Over the summer would be a different story especially financially.
  13. Agree to disagree on everything else, but with this I am wondering if it is because of the age gap between him and the rest of that group. He's at least 5 years younger than almost everyone else in that group.
  14. yep, completely unsurprised that stuff like this came out.
  15. It's a convoluted mess, but New Hampshire - by its own state laws -- has the first primary in the country. There is technically both a Democratic & Republican primary today. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/bidens-ballot-new-hampshires-primary-dems-win/story?id=1065681
  16. Biden is very unpopular over here, he just so happens to be running against someone who is even more unpopular. He (Biden) isn't even on the New Hampshire primary due to Democratic party shenanigans..... I would be interested to see if Dean Phillips gets more than 30% of the vote.
  17. hopefully that account gets the right flag next time.
  18. From what I've heard, he's turned down other PL clubs in the past as well as NFL teams. Read that he is seen as highly regarded in sport as well.
  19. yeah probably. Happened in 2016 as well..... there was always going to be only 1 Republican candidate in '24.
