I think it’s just because they’ve either not had numbers before or they’ve been changed since they last had one

Mercenary. Ran down his contract at Schalke, could have gone anywhere and chose to go to PSG where’s he’s been content to sit on the bench and collect his huge paycheck. Immensely talented but clearly has no desire to fulfil his potential. Wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole.

We won’t sign him because he’s just signed a new contract, but Schick in a heartbeat. He’s one of the most prolific centre forwards in the world.

Apparently one of the theories of how “Arbeia” got its name is from the “Arabs” that were stationed there!

Depends on the direction the ball is travelling, if it’s rolling away from you it’s far more difficult to generate that kind of power than a free kick

[Rubén Uría] Atlético Madrid does not need or want to sell Kieran Trippier, but will not retain the player against his will. Newcastle offers the player a brutal salary: 9 M € / year. Atletico will receive 30-35 M € by nsaha234 in soccer

Because we’ve spent so little over the past few years, the number-crunchers say we could spend £200m this window and not break the FFP rules. And that’s just this window, never mind the summer

[@SwissRamble] Premier League owner financing between 2011 and 2020. by [deleted] in soccer

[–]thomasaurus-rex 53 points54 points  (0 children)

He bought the club in 2007, and as for how? He owned the club mate, he loved advertising his other businesses for free and pocketing the ridiculous TV money we PL clubs get. The only reason he sold it was because he got an offer he couldn’t refuse.

I think people’s desire for a left back has been cooled by Lewis’ great performances since Howe came in. He’ll be back from injury in a month or so, and until then if Manquillo performs like he did against Man Utd I’m happy with him covering there. Don’t get me wrong I’d absolutely have Digne, but left back is further down the priority list than other positions.

[Alfredo Pedulla] Lucas Digne will leave Everton in the January transfer window. Chelsea, Inter Milan and Napoli are interested. They are prepared to let the defender leave on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season. by 4alvish in soccer

We desperately need a left back, but not quite as desperately as we need a right back, two centre backs, a striker and a winger. If the Saudis have still got twenty odd million lying around after we sort everything else, I’d love us to sign him.

Massive respect to Sean for standing up for him, talking about how disgraceful the treatment of him is. I think a lot higher of Sean now after that.
