RicRic Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) Lads theres a player we were linked with before his move who imo has been overlooked tremendously and thats Michael Olise he racked up ELEVEN assists last season and known for direct pace and trickery, by far better than bailey and has such a high ceiling with potential at the age of 21, I’ll be the one to say id rather us pay £42m for Olise than Diaby. Emery would turn him into an absolute beast and the more I think about it this would be the ultimate signing for us , man city are heavily interested in him atm which tells you a great deal… but ive heard couple murmurs about him in the forum which have only been good but too rare.

What are we talking here, the difference between giving them Bugatti’s instead of Porsche’s on their 17th birthdays?! Exactly. If you can't setup your family's lives on premier league wages earning 100k a week for 5 years then you need help managing money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) Starting to wonder if we will sign Ferran… it seems almost likely… and maybe even another player from Barca… Not adored there, nor been on top form, but, more importantly, they have a 60 million Euro debt to clear and new signings as well as re-contracted players that they can’t register at this moment in time - the deadline is 31 August. Their overall, recorded, debt is 1.35 Billion Euros What a shit show… They have to sell players… Ferran, Kessie and Ansu-Fati(?!) are the most mentioned names in terms of most likely departures… Edited July 19, 2023 by Jas10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other people might be satisfied with earning "just" 5m/year while playing in leagues with real standing and for historic clubs, but with the added bonus of avoiding playing for a morally decrepit political regime in a country where 110F temperatures are common and restrictions on women and LGBTQ people are brutal. Not everyone needs to make 30m/year to take care of their families. You are in the other 5% then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballers spend money like gas fills space. It's called lifestyle creep and it doesn't matter how much they earn, they'll spend it.

Emery would turn him into an absolute beast and the more I think about it this would be the ultimate signing for us , man city are heavily interested in him atm which tells you a great deal… but ive heard couple murmurs about him in the forum which have only been good but too rare. he just had to have surgery so is out for a few months. Also, I'd be stunned if he left Palace for us. City & Arsenal have been linked, don't see him choosing us over either of those. And he is a London guy as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
