It's funny how city always have basically no preseason for their senior squad and handle the 60 game load better than all of the Conte style coaches who make their players do insane training over the summer.Like surely figuring out rest is important isn't a 1000 IQ move only pep can manage
>>142949280good entertainment for the irish americans
>>142949614PL clubs do not do preseason for fitness, they do it for money. So it's not a suprise that when the best coach in the world tells the club with a money printer that he doesn't want a busy preseason, they don't do it. And they can still afford to spend 100m on Grealish.
>>142949614yeah whu don't other teams just sign a full squad of world class internationals

It's mad that United are managing to sell players for good money and getting good players in return. Meanwhile other clubs are getting pennies at best or can't shift their shit and STILL haven't made any signings (Chelsea don't count because they can just cheat and nobody cares).
>>142950160Arsenal are signing a lot of c-b tier players
>>142950592You're telling the truth but schizo will seethe and call you dave.
it's still crazy that they didn't sack ten hag
>>142950603They've not signed anybody bar two youth GKs.
>>14295048840M for Sancho and 15M for Wan Bissaka. McTominay could be 30-40M. Don't think the price will be as strict on his transfer because the fee will be 100% profit.
>>142950187also Jorginho, David Luiz (heh), Soares
damn
good to see everyone is sticking to the rules ITTreminder for newcomers: we do NOT discuss Chelsea here
>>142950675McTominay might be worth that much to Man United but I don’t think he is to anyone else. Good when you need a goal late in the game after the tactics have broken down. Not many teams looking to pay 30m+ for a starting midfielder that isn’t good at passing or dribbling, not a solid tackler, doesn’t win interceptions and is out of position often.
>>142950752Yes we do, we discussed them last night. But there isn't really much to discuss. They keep signing players but there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it, other than they are 'wonderkids' and 'Brazilian'.
>>142950790shame Moysey left West Ham. He was gagging to splurge on McTom. Sang his praises vociferously during the Euros commentary and talked about how he really wanted to sign him.
>>142950790if anything, Fulham do need him considering Mctominay will be their best scorer coming into the team and he's not even a striker

>>142951065Mctom unironically only had 28 yellow cards in 176 PL games with United since 2017. Palhinha meanwhile got 27 in just 2 seasons.also not a single red card too.
>>142949358>Masonit's a boys club mate
>>142951124>>142951114if you are born on december 31st , when january 1st hits, you are 2 years old even though you have only been born for 24 hours.
>>142951215>you're 2 years old when your 24 hours old
so how old is son heung min
just had a thought... having an accurate way of describing age is non-triviallike saying you are 18 years old in regular fashion, when i think about it, doesnt seem like a truly veridical way of describing agefor instance, this way assigns a zeroth year whne surelythat shpuld be first yearif we arent apeaking ordinally then i am not exactly sure what the literal meaning on 1 year old is ... that you have had 1 full year? maybe but that is still messy coz you got the other unaccounted months. Surely doing it ordinally (i.e. 2nd year) is a better descriptionmaybe this is the logic of the koreaj system hence 2 years old after 24 hours. maybe its a better system after allopen to thoughts from others
>>142951414Well he was born in 1992 and that was in the 20th century, but it's 2024 and we're in the 21st century now, so according to the other anon he's either 200 years old or 2000 years old. Mad he's still playing at that age.
>>142950939I thought RH would be Rasmus Hojlund? Or am I not misunderstanding this tweet?
>>142951476Pretty much every single mother I know use months for a kid's age if they're less than 12 months old. Sometimes even up to 24 months.
>>142951476well we use a retrospective viewpoint of time. we're talking about how many years you've experienced on the earth, from your perspective. the koreans are using their calendar as the perspective. it's about whether you value personal experience or not. like, when we talk about babies in the west we talk about how many months old they are (up to about age 2-3 usually) because of how much development and change there are between the months. a 1 year old who's 12 months old is much different than a 1 year old whos 18 months old. i don't know how they do that in korea, so maybe they don't.
Please, somebody tell me where these following players are going and which number they're wearing:>Toney>Coman>Martial>Rabiot
>>142951784They do the same thing with prison sentences, but it gets a bit weird because sometimes they'll say 60 months instead of 5 years. Usually once it was 2 years they'd say 2 years, but then it was 24 months and then 36 months started to creep in and now it's just mental.
>>142951665It is. He changed shirt number to 9. As worn by Man Utd legend Flacao.
>>142950280Retro Leeds badge
>>142952061Kek, I don't think I've seen a 60 month sentence so far. I know some articles interchange between years and months to make you think the sentence/whatever subject is longer or shorter cause you're likely only looking at the headline and moving on. There is some kind of psychology behind it I'm sure. >>142952105Taking on the responsibilities of the great Martial will be a tough task indeed
>>142951853>>142950252Rashford at least has runs of form where he's a genuine goal threat. Sancho has shown nothing since he came here, I'd give him to PSG if they offered me a bag of peanuts >>142951853If I had to guess>ToneyArsenal>ComanEither stays with Bayern or goes to PSG >MartialProbably signs with some French team that isn't PSG>RabiotApparently been linked to AC Milan
>>142952456I've only seen it a few times tbf. Seen it again the other day though so it reminded me of it. You are right there is some kind of psychology behind it, but weirdly prisoners generally do theirs in months rather than years because it sound less. They definitely do it if they have months to go. Like you talk to someone and ask how long they have left and they'll say "26 weeks".
>>142952559It's pretty fascinating how words have an effect on our ability to feel the passage of time. Shows you boring this transfer window has been when I'm gushing over the use of words.
>>142952781Yeah it is. You're right about it being a boring transfer window too. Feels like all of the big deals get sorted before the window opens so there's not really anything to look forward to. We don't even really see those mad dashes right at the end like clubs are bidding on an ebay item and just go wild with bids because they suddenly desperately need them/don't want anyone else to have them.

>>142953993I dont like harvey elliot. I wont expand on that but its important that you know i dont care for him
>>142954033Maybe his wife and kids drive him mental and he wants to play football again.
>>142954033He was on nearly 350k at utd and clearly still thinks he's worth that kind of amount - even after not playing for a year. He was great for a long time, but it's pure delusion at this point.
>>142954099I guess hes got enough money that he doesnt need to play. Why take a huge pay cut when he doesnt have to.
>>142954128He clearly doesnt have to, unless he still has a love of the game. He could easily get 100-150k from someone surely.
>>142954036that's fine. but he is actually good.

Zinchenko can't defend (he is like a worse TAA, the guy should just play LW or midfield for fuck sake), Tierney is good but he plays 1min a year because he is always injured. Timber isn't even a LB and I dunno why they even signed him for that position (and he's dead anyway) so they need a LB and that guy is apparently left footed and is the type of player Arteta likes - technically gifted, forward thinking and able to defend and attack... but isn't particularly fast (he was but he ruptured his ACL at 16 iirc and he lost all his speed).

I can't check the source because you need to be subscribed, but plenty of places are mentioning what Fabrizio said. I am also seeing €30m which is £25m. We'll see. It's hardly a 'heinous' price tag when Kellyman went for £20m and has played a grand total of 72 mins of PL football in his entire career.

>>142955345All their LBs are dead men walking and of varying quality. Now why they decided to buy another dead man walking to add to that list, I do not know. But they do need an LB they can rely heavily upon like they do with Ben White. Arguably they need a younger Partey/Jorginho first though. Even before a striker.

Just saw there is a video game coming out, where you're not in charge of a football club.. but you're in charge of managing fans getting to the match. It's officially sponsored by Arsenal and Bayern. It looks interesting but if it has sponsors it is going to be £60 and I won't pay that. Hopefully they'll do a demo or something. Could be interesting.
what was the idea behind this
>>142963933you organise coaches for them?
>>142963944Damn they have regressed under Kompany
>>142963944Kompany is without 3/4 of his squad and he still got double digits. CL is going back to Bavaria this season.
>>142949447>15 hours
>>142963970Basically you do shit to get the fans to the game and the stuff around it. Make sure the path to the stadium is secure and doesn't cross opposing fans so they don't fight, set up police and shit, set up fan zones and media areas.Never seen anything like it before. It'll prob be boring and shit, hence why I'd like a demo, but yeah.

>Martial scored 90 goals in 317 games in 9 seasons with united>averaging a measly 10 goals/season with a big portion of your United career being the starting striker especially when Ole took over but after 19/20 season, he just petered out because too many injuries so it's not the coach's fault they kept signing some new strikers (Cavani, Ronaldo, Weghorst, Hojlund) because he just couldn't get fit at all.>and this happened when his salary was like 250kpw>meanwhile Hojlund's 1st season managed to score 16 goals in a completely dogshit team that finished 8th and played with wingers that were notoriously greedy with the ball>that number is already better than whole Martial's seasons in United bar 2 (15/16 season AKA his debut season where he scored 17 goals, and 19/20 where he scored 23 goals and United fans thought 'THIS IS FINALLY THE MARTIAL WE BOUGHT FOR')>being a Martial stan in 2024
>>142964354Martial was better than his body let him be
any gambling shops doing odds on kane finishing his career trophyless?(i doubt it would happen since he can just go to some forrin shittank league to get a "trophy")
>>142964401I suspect Kane will win his trophy next year. No way that Bayern fail to win nothing for the 2nd year in a row.
>>142962760a bit sad tbqh, he actually had pretty decent season numbers-wise last year and most foreign players improve in their second season. must've been offered absolutely ludicrous money.
>>142964354I think the worst thing about Martial was the fact that he actually had the skill to be a world beater if he wasn't so injury prone/lazy. Reminds me of Berbatov a little, though worse. Shouldve sold him 2 seasons ago >>142964435>No way that Bayern fail to win nothing for the 2nd year in a row.They just hired Kompany who literally has 0 qualifications for a job of that magnitude, it is very possible for them to go trophyless again if Leverkusen keep most of their pieces
>>142964693>Shouldve sold him 2 seasons agosadly impossible because of his massive wage, he signed a 5-year extension back in 2019 and things did look on the way up for him (Ole preferred to start him over Lukaku) so United board recklessly (as always) gave him a new long-term contract.At first it kinda paid off because he was scoring nicely in 19/20 season (even though part of it had something to with the season being paused due to Covid and he used the vacant time to heal itself and managed to go on a run during Project Restart), but then it's reported Ole was forcing him to play through injury during that insane Project Restart schedule and since then he was permanently broken.
>>142964693If Kane carries on firing and they shore up their defence and improve their midfield (Olise is an improvement as is) then I really can't see them not winning something. I mean, it'd be funny if they didn't.
I wonder if Kane will go on a murder/suicide rampage if he finishes his career and only has an Audi cup medal to show for it.
>>142964912he can go to my local club when he's 40yo and watch our biggest rival (Persib) win the title
>Fulham close to reaching agreement with Arsenal to sign Emile Smith Rowe. Talks over move worth up to £35m; would be record recruit for Fulham and would match the largest Arsenal sale ever. If the deal is struck the 23yo is expected to do medical & finalise termsHow is their largest sale only 35 million lmao
>>142964882Other than Olise and Palinha who have they been linked to? They're probably going to lose quite a few key players by the end of the window as well
hilarious if true, bro can barely run nowadays. Edgar Davids' style

>>142965507Happened last season with United, at this point I'm half convinced they are being paid to job to Wrexham in pre season.

>>142965575Haven't looked at it yet, but I won't turn down a chance to laugh at Lelsea. Forgot that Gore got a red in that game, did Chelsea at least go down to 10 men?

>>142968006it amazes me people are still stupid enough to put their money into these things, to the point where the people who started it have enough money to sponsor a football team. you are getting scammed brother.
>>142968006>>142968126I don't understand this desu, isn't it supposed to be a currency? who is sponsoring it?
Man United are skint la
>>142968214udinese are a shit serie a team. altcoins are cryptocurrencies that usually operate as scams. they create fake 'wealth' that only a small portion of people can actually capitalise on. it's kind of like a ponzi scheme. if you know how stocks work, the way their worth is determined is a bit like that, except they aren't attached to a tangible company/good. during covid there were tonnes of crypto scams where people would set up these altcoins, wait for people to start buying and trading it, and then flood the market with coins they were holding, taking money from the people stupid enough to buy it while driving the price into the ground.

>Aaron Wan-BIssaka has turned down West Ham and favours a move to Inter Milan. [@David_Ornstein]Very random that, is he inspired by Ashley Young and maybe he's interested to win Serie A?
>>142961160literally all of them

>>142969085they're consistently in the CL and challenging for the title
>>142968992definitely. did Atalanta not bid around 20m EUR? I guess that's not far off in terms of £s and they'll be hoping the PL is more attractive. personally, if he has to go, would like to see him abroad.

>>142969306I mean English players tend to just stay in PLI'd understand it more if we already got some news that Inter are interested with AWB but so far we haven't got any so I'm wondering how in the hell AWB just picks Inter for his most favored destination?
It's kinda funny how broke continental football is.Bernardo wanted to leave city for years for warm weather and now alvarez wants to do the same but if madrid don't want you and you don't want to play ligue 1 with psg there's nobody out there who can afford you
>>142969389He'll stay a year and then replace Stones at city I reckon
>>142969409Only 1 club in each non-PL europe leagues that can splurge massive money for just one signing (Bayern, PSG, Madrid), and after that, the biggest they can pay is 30-35m maximum per player. Serie A clubs also like to trade each other.
>>142969424City have a kid in their academy, Callum Doyle, who if they can get premier league time for in the next season, is up definitely up there. If the treat him right they have no reason to go for Branthwaite.
>>142969389>3 years left on his dealKek

>>142969646>An idea that would see Aaron Wan-Bissaka go to Inter and Denzel Dumfries join Manchester United is being discussed by intermediaries! Breh, another Dutchy
>>142969389>Jarrad Branthwaite has no intention to sign a new deal at Everton unless they offer £160,000Even then, why the fuck would you extend at Everton when big clubs are interested in you?
>>142967807>ynr when spurs fans thought hed be massivehow many decent youth players do they actually produce? i dont really remember hearing much about their academy compared to the other top 6 clubs
>>142969409i mean these multi millionaires could take pay cut?50m+250k (65m in wages over 5 years)v50m+150k(41m in wages over 5 years)Makes a big difference on affordability, especially with clubs that cant guarantee CL money each year

>>142969736yes they're shite but they do at least win cups and play in europe.what does Everton have to offer but misery
>>142969714Why would you extend at Everton who:Are in yet another takeover drama now the last deal (lost count) fell through Selling off their assets to try and meet PSR due to massive debts Still haven’t finished the new stadium and the yanks who tried to takeover are now listed as creditors due to the loans that kept them going last year Barely scraped relegation and are probably going to be in another relegation scrap
>>142969752it's not about what Everton have to offer, it's about what moves you block yourself from being able to make if you join the first mid table club that bids
>>142969746ah fuck my bad, i was thinking about tanganga lol. >its a surprise archie gray went theretheir track record is pretty bad, but hes probably taking advantage of their rebuilding status to try and cement himself in the first team before the squad positions actually becomes competitive
>>142969746Tbf Sess was injured quite a lot during his Spurs stint so he barely played for them, although the managerial merry-go-round Spurs went through when he's still around only made the whole thing worse.>signed in 19/20 season when Poch was still around before being culled in November>then Mou, NES, Conte, also Stellini and Ryan Mason interim.
West Ham have agreed club + player deals to sign Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich, deal is close but not done. Man United still retain an interest in the right back but will only go for him or another right back after off loading Wan-Bissaka. AWB previously rejected West Ham, apparently would prefer a move to Inter. Intermediary talks have been held about a Dumfries/AWB swap deal, not advanced. -David Ornstein

https://x.com/BackseatsmanLFC/status/1816392201296826804?s=1911 years ago arsenal bid £40m+1 for suarezPretty wild looking back, John Henry just outright publicly saying the contracts in football don't mean shit and they chose to ignore the clause Wonder if it would play out the same way today if a club chose to ignore a release fee
>>1429708611. A trend about two decades ago was if you had a double-barrelled name, you looked/sounded fancy, so you're more likely to get a job.2. People who have potential footballers want both of their surnames on the back of their kids' shirt. If Mr Smith and Mrs Archer have a kid they don't want Mr Smith getting the 'claim to fame'. So Smith-Archer. I pointed out a year or so ago there is a footballer who has a quad-barrelled name. As in his first name is double-barrelled and so is his surname.
>>142970921Obviously, I should add, there has been quad barrelled before but it is more of a double barrelled double barrelled. Jan-Ingwer Callsen-Bracker is one.
>>142970921>>142970971Who do you think they're giving credit to with the first names? Their brother?
>>142970921Thank you this actually makes sense, I had always just assumed the reason is that they are from broken homes.
>Brentford’s Igor Thiago suffered a meniscus injury during the Bees’ 5-2 victory over AFC Wimbledon.
>>142970996There are more reasons obviously. People have done it to prove they know who their fathers are as it is predominately with mixed race/blacks as you've probably noticed. Can be legal things too. It's dumb. If a double-barrelled kid has a kid with another double-barrelled and they keep the name gimmick it becomes dumb. So Mr Smith-Archer and Mrs Gate-Gayle will have a kid that is Smitharcher-Gategayle. It's stupid and dumb.

>>142971029>sign for club>look good>immediately injured
>>142970921And the actual answer 3. It is their actual surname and therefore they want their actual surname on the back No you didn't cover this with 2 Don't cope You were wrong
Branthwaite DOES NOT want to stay at Everton
>>142969409It's weird how Bernardo Silva is still there and been there as long. Literally from the second he arrived there were stories he wanted to leave and every transfer window it was talked about how much he wanted to leave. Yet he remains 7 years on.
>>142970996so traditionally in the UK it is a sign of two wealthy families marrying each other and one of them wanting their children to have a proper claim to their extended families estates when people up the chain die and whatever, especially when there's no son in the family and only daughters. obviously now in the modern era where its really easy to keep information, either digitally or centrally with multiple copies within the state itself, so this kind of thing isn't really needed any more, but now it's not really done for that it's done for other reasons. but like 100+ years ago it was incredibly easy to lose a birth certificate and records like that went missing (or were destroyed) all the time, so you needed something consistent across your life that proved part of your lineage, because you know if your mum died before your grandfather or something you didn't want to get iced out the will when your grandfather actually dies because he now just rejects you as family and your mum isn't there to inherit it first.
>>142971330Mate there are loads of reasons why people use two names. I'll list them because you're a sped.>Cultural and Social InfluencesDouble-barreled names are often seen as a way to combine or preserve family names or lineages. In some cases, parents choose to give their children double-barrelled names to honour both sides of the family.>Desire for IndividualitySome parents opt for double-barrelled names to give their children a distinctive or unique identity. In a competitive field like professional football, having a memorable name can help players stand out. Which is why a name like Traore or Diaby will get a lot of hits when searching but Traore-Diaby would not.>Influence of Celebrities and Public FiguresThe practice of having double-barrelled names has been popularised by celebrities and public figures, leading to its adoption by a wider audience, including young athletes. Which again links to other reasons.>Legal ConsiderationsParents may choose a double-barrelled name for legal or administrative reasons, such as to ensure that both parents' surnames are included. This helps when moving nations if you follow your kid to another club in another nation.>Fashion and TrendNaming trends, like other aspects of culture, can change over time. Double-barrelled names may have become more popular in recent years as a fashion trend... Why you ask? Because footballers have them. It's a cyclic process.You going 'it's their surname and they want it on the back' is baffling because no shit it is their surname, but the reason why their parents have given the surname to the kid is listed above. If the parents have a double barrelled name then it goes back to whenever their fucking parents gave them that. Why are you a mong?

We don't want fans missing out on more than one or two games a season in their home stadium.'>'When you look at the way the Premier League works, a lot of the money the clubs receive comes from TV rights,' he added. >'The key thing for our fans is to make sure our fans don't lose out. To make sure the games are in the right time zones, that the players are looked after when they come back..'One of the things we learnt from American Football is that often when the players go back the next game is an issue due to time zones and diet.'I didn't like Khan regardless but this lowers my opinion of him even further.

Fucking Spurs built their stadium SPECIFICALLY with hosting NFL games in mind to make them more money (also did they even sell their naming rights yet?) so Khan doesn't get a say in any of this. Lord Mayor of London is the important guy anyway. Khan is just a fuckwit and I hope people slaughter him. Khan just knows he is in a political cage and wants to break out by losing the next election so he can run for Labour leadership because Labour is a month into running the country and is already building the gallows while Corbyn drinks his champagne and starts making breakaway parties while bragging about fucking Dianne 'I can't do simple maths and you're racist for telling me the definition of racism and FUCK JEWS TOO' Abbott.The only way this could be a quid pro quo is that London was getting a deal to create the London Redcoats, the old 'fan name' of a hypothetical NFL team based in London, designed specifically to get their arse raped by New England Patriots.

>>142983665This is actually really worrying behaviour for a young man with confirmed depression.Hopefully it's just bollocks.
>spurs fans are desperate for the club to sign ezeWhy are Spurs fans so retarded?Crystal Palace want £60m up front, he's 26 and never been a world-beater. Nothing more than a decent average player for a midtable club; how many more times to Spurs need to be scammed into this type of transfer before they learn?If you're a top 6 club and looking to take the next step, you should be looking to sign someone akin to Sadio Mane circa 2016 (Southampton to Liverpool). He was a far better player than Eze is and will ever be. If you can't find a player with those credentials, then back your academy star Mikey Moore.
>>142984169Without a time machine or being blinded by scouse delusion who would you say they sign then, out of interest.
>>142984216Nobody.Tottenham have one of the best young players in the world for that LW position, Mikey Moore. Give him an extended run in the team.Tottenham are historically way to willing to buy shit players from other clubs and way too reluctant to give game time to good academy prospects. What has this philosophy returned? Jack shit.Postecoglou has played Moore in the pre-season games, but out of position on the right to accommodate shit players like Werner and Solomon on the left, and he STILL outperformed them both.If they are going to sign any winger for that kind of money, Pedro Neto makes more sense because he can play inverted on the right, and Wolves are willing to accept a bid in installments. He's injury prone but he's better than Eze and doesn't have an english tax.
>>142982742He is but he only has 1 year left on his contract and is rejecting new offers. Villa probably asked for some wording in a clause to be changed rather than simply saying no deal.
>>142982742>this gonna be a whole new kind of shitshow lol.Yeah kinda noticed this when playing Wrexham, his position was a CM in 343. My guess is that Reece's body just can't keep up with the physical demand of being a fullback hence repeating injuries so now he's being put centrally because the expectation that he won't need to do a lot of sprint playing there.
>Harry Maguire on his future and links with Man United exit: “To be honest, everything I've heard is that I'm part of future here at Man United”.>“I'm ready to fight for the biggest trophies”, told Sky Sports.
>>142984270The best way to ruin Moore’s career would be to play him into the ground at 16. Barca can take the risk because they always have another young player to throw in the blender. Spurs can’t.
>>142984362>Barca can take the risk because they always have another young player to throw in the blenderWhat a nonsense reason.Yamal was good enough to play at the level, simple as that.Whether or not Moore is good enough is yet to be decided, but he should still be given a shot. He is clearly above the level of all the youth divisions and has already been given sub appearances in the Premier League towards the end of last year. Borussia Dortmund made him a big offer, a club with a taste for playing english teenagers in their first team.Historically Tottenham send this type of player on loan to Plymouth or Leyton Orient or Milwall or MK Dons, and that's the last you'll ever hear of them.
>>142984401>Ansu Fati - age 21 - games missed with injury 120 - permanent hamstring and knee problems>Pedri - age 21 - games missed with injury 85 - permanent hamstring problemsPlaying someone off the bench is fine. Using a player that young as the first option destroys everyone who isn’t a little caveman like Rooney, Milner and HGH Messi.
>>142984494Tbf Rooney was practically finished by his late 20sKinda the same with Fabregas
>>142979362I love this shark!
>>142979362there is absolutely no fucking way real madrid are taking kepa. they had him on loan for the entire season, and then for most of the second half of the season he did not play and they started Lunin over him. Chelsea would have to add something extra surely to make this worth it for them when Lunin was clearly the favourite as the season went on.
>>142984346>“I'm ready to fight for the biggest trophiesWhy is he at United then?

I get that they want to replace AWB but still, I'm not sold on Shaw/Malacia being fit for the whole season to be fair though, there's hardly any left backs available on the market right now.
