We’ve got Chelsea and Manchester United coming up this week. If the lads can cruise through the second half and have an easier recovery for those two fixtures then I’m all for it.

Replaced by Morgan Rogers then? He might have to get used to that.

The General FFP (Financial Fair Play) Thread
The_Rev replied to Marka Ragnos's topic in Other Football
@MrBlack Palace spent more than we did too, but it's hard to get reliable numbers once you start trying to account for loan fees. There seemed to be a few dropping £10-15m during the window, Spurs were the only club who spent over £25m as far as I can tell. -
Dan Burn is having a good game for them.

Link to tweet because Elon decided to break embedding from phones. (The replies are amazing btw. It’s incredible how many people are trying to explain that, well, you know…)
-
They said that about Villa fans once remember?
-
I was gonna say I think Barcelona probably know what they are doing, only then I remembered everything they have done in the past three or four years.
-
Can’t see it. Klopp is citing exhaustion as his reason for leaving Liverpool and he doesn’t strike me as someone who would straight up lie about that just so he could take an even more demanding job. I think he’ll have a sabbatical and then either end up in charge of Bayern or the German national team.
-
This is incredible. 38 attempts on goal to 2. Lose 2-1.
-
Tbf to Lenglet, he signed for Barcelona during their Peter Ridsdale period.
-
Manchester City finally score a goal at the new White Hart Lane. A minute earlier the commentator said they’d had 100 attempts on goal there without scoring.
-
Should have lost 4-0 lads.
-
I don’t think we’ve been as bad as the discorse on here would have you believe but Chelsea should have scored a couple of times. Lenglet seems off it again, the well drilled back line of September to December looks sloppy and now opposition are snapping into Dougie early we struggle to use the ball as well as we did before. We’ve still had our moments going forwards, if Chelsea should have scored then so should Youri. I don’t think we’ll win this game but we’ve got a punchers chance.

There’s no obligation to have it in the cup. If a stadium isn’t set up for VAR then no VAR is required but if it has it then it’s used.
-
Chelsea have four or five players in their team that I couldn’t tell you if they came out of the academy or were signed for £43m from some team in Italy.
-
He’s just signed a new contract at Al-Ettifaq so he’s not even available.
-
Im guessing the players and staff didn’t find out half an hour ago mate.
-
It's not like they are struggling without him. Guardiola has referenced him a couple of times this season when talking about Oscar Bobb, saying that Palmer wanted to leave for first team football, something he wasn't going to get at Manchester City this season. The fact that they got a high price (£40m) for the transfer probably means they won't lose too much sleep over it, that's the absolute most they'd get for someone who was a squad player with a ton of potential.
-
I believe he worked down at the BIMM Institute on Floodgate Street too. Good dude. He’ll be missed.
-
TBF I can see the sense in this one. Trippier is an experienced pro who you want in the team because of what he can do with the ball at his feet. He’d looked decent at Newcastle until the last couple of months when maybe Eddies 1000mph football was starting to catch up with him but as a player in a Bayern team who dominate possession in every game they play? He could tear opposition apart.
-
Tamworth are at home on the Saturday. It's not much further out of the city centre than Sutton Coldfield really, some 20 minutes on the train and their ground is barely half a mile from the station. They've got a good team this season too, absolutely walking the league.
-
You might be able to get in on the returns but the system they use to allocate away tickets basically mean it's a closed shop. Because people get a head start on being able to buy them once they have a booking history then they are practically incentivised to snap up tickets ASAP just to keep collecting that booking history. It's so easy to sell the away tickets on the secondary market for games they can't/don't want to attend that it's impossible to lose out.
-
Just chiming in to agree with the consensus really. Carlos wouldn't be playing if we had a fully fit squad, he's nowhere near the quality of Pau, Konsa or Mings. He's going to be in the picture for the remainder of this season, but unless Mings doesn't recover fully from the injury then I don't think Carlos should have a long term future at the club.

Saw Real Madrid were 3-1 up against Barca, then remembered it’s the Spanish Charity Shield which gets played mid season in Saudi Arabia and is basically rigged so Real Madrid and Barca are in it every time. I don’t think I’ve had my interest piqued and deflated this quickly since Kerri Evans flashed a bit of bra at teenage The_Rev in the woods behind my High School but immediately vomited over herself because she had necked half a bottle of Kiwi Fruit flavoured MD20/20 about twenty minutes earlier.

PSV are romping home in the Eredivisie. So far this season they have a 100% record. P17 W17 D0 L0 GD+52 Pts51.
