Like man united used to be able to do. Thank god those days are over. Edited March 20, 2021 by villa89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Haaland ended up getting 2 today but Dortmund only got a draw. He's having yet another fantastic season but Dortmund is not. Jadon Sancho got player of the month for February in the Bundesliga btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't even know it was an FA cup game... There's so much football on at the moment and to be fair I've seen snippets of lots of games but bar villa I've not paid much actual attention to most of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villaphan04 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 2 hours ago, OutByEaster? said: Yep, it's the effect of the most recent Premier league TV deals - in England it's meant that teams outside the traditional big six can afford to attract and pay the wages of better players and has closed the gap between the top and the middle, and abroad it's meant that Crystal Palace can outbid the likes of Inter Milan and Dortmund for players - that's put pressure on the big two in Spain and they've overstretched and found themselves skint at a time where they both have to redevelop their grounds. It's all the result of that TV money that's making Southampton richer than Juventus. TBF I think i remember reading that the PL is one of the only leagues which "evenly" shares the broadcasting revenue compared to the La Liga (and Barca/Real getting a majority of it) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Remember that weekend at the start of the season when refs booked players for not leaving via the nearest touchline? They seem to have decided that's just not a rule anymore, take your time, Raheem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted March 20, 2021 Moderator Share Posted March 20, 2021 I can't make my mind up if Graham Potter is an excellent coach who is a striker short of a top half side or if he is a coach responsible for the most dull and boring football ever. Not sure that makes sense but it is how I feel watching Brighton. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Posted March 20, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted March 20, 2021 I have the anti Newcastle bug, however the more i think about this maybe its Brighton that could be better option for us to go down.

sne Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Newcastle have 25% possession and zero shots on goal and they are still behind at HT. What happened? They did everything according to plan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
