>>144100885CHELSEAS REBUILT SQUAD AKA CHELSEA 2.0
>>144100934until mid september i think but im probably wrong
>>144100934Friday night, mate, plenty of kebabs to sell.
>>144100954reminding me of that pre season casemiro pic
i love /trans/ lads
>>144100885>Sterlel to arsenal ffsHow can this player keep falling upwards.Should be playing in the turkish league by now
>>144100991his agent is goated
Mad how Chelsea bought loads of players and then people went 'Right finally they can start trimming down the squad' and still end up with roughly 40 players anyway.
>League One side Birmingham have signed Jay Stansfield for £15M + £5M in add ons and a 20% sell-on clause. They got a new owner?
>>144101028tom brady
>>144101028americanbtw if im not mistaken that quadruples the league 1 transfer record
>>144100991It's only a loan and Arsenal got rid of their only other two players who could play RW.
>sanchingz vs mudringz battle for chelseas LW spot
>>144101041holy shit really? wtf
>>144101028Disgusting. Hope he flops and Birmingham don't get promoted.
>birmingham are in league 1kek
>>144101063hes part of a consortiummichael b jordan(killmonger)has a stake in afc bournemouth too
Luckhurst confirmed Sekou Kone isn't an academy signing. However he'll be spending some times in the academy team just like when Amad and Pellistri got signed.
>There is no loan fee included in the deal for Raheem Sterling to Arsenal, despite Chelsea wanting one. Arsenal are only paying a fraction of the players’ wages. That's a terrible deal for Chelsea, they should've been more proactive in selling him earlier in the window.
>>144101028I see Todd is helping out his American compatriots with advice on how to conduct transfer business
raheem sleepy
>>144101101zesty raheem
>>144100941>4-2-4bold choice lets see if pays off for them
>>144101088They clearly need to spend another £1b on more frauds, especially from Brighton and the Portuguese league. Otherwise, I'm not very optimistic about their chances this season. Not playing like this.
>>144101028>initial bid was between £9m and £10m>Fulham tell them to fuck off>instead ending up paying £15mThe Yanks at Birmingham are genuinely fucking retarded, Stansfield isn't worth that much whatsoever
>>144101028He's a good, young player and had a decent goal scoring record for a shite team in the Championship, but what the fuck? Even the rejected 10m is insane for a league one team.Remember when Championship teams spending 10m was a huge talking point?
>>144100941Not a single one of the players they have signed this window improves their team.
>>144101088so Arsenal basically got Sterling for nothing.
>>144100941There is literally only 1 player in this whole squad who is world class and he might be retarded
>>144101028hes useless, theyre better of signing lisa stansfield (i dont know who this is ive heard of her somehow and i dont want to google it, might be a pornstar)
any updates on the javi martinez to liverpool situation?
https://x.com/SamJDean/status/1829645618467520880?t=d1hhCXITqcM3KTw7lGAbaw&s=19Source of Jay's price btw
>>144101156Paying less than 50% of his wages too. I guess it helps Chelsea a tiny bit on the wage front but they're likely still paying £160k+ a week of it
>>144101168this?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVuuatjHGnY
>>144101088>no loan fee includedhHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahAHAhAHAhAHHAhAHAHAhAhahHAHAHA>only playing a fraction of the players' wagesAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHASHOULDN'T HAVE 'BOMB SQUAD' HIM THIS EARLY AND SHOULD HAVE TRIED TO OFF LOAD HIM BEFORE HAND. WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS? ARSENAL ESSENTIALLY GET A PLAYER WITH BARELY ANYTHING SPENTWHAT THE FUCK IS CHELSEA DOING?AND WHY ARE THEY BUYING SANCHO (or loan I don't know) IT'S FUCKING MADNESS.I WANT OFF TODD BOEHLY'S WILD RIDE THIS IS DOING MY FUCKING NUT I'M GOING TO SCREAM ALL THIS SHIT AND THE WOLVES GAME PAPERING OVER THE CRACKS.
>>144101088apparently todd didnt want to ever watch him in a chelsea kit again and told winstanley he had to sell sterling or he was fired so they pretty much had to bend over and get anything they could
>>144101146I remember this: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-5846041/Nottingham-Forest-make-13m-record-signing-midfielder-Joao-Carvalho.html>Nottingham Forest complete £13m club record signing of midfielder Joao Carvalho from BenficaHad two decent seasons then completely fell out of favour
>>144101028Tom Brady pulling a Chelsea 2.0
>>144101187this is what conte was singing all summer until lukaku joined
wait whatsterling at arse on loan deal
>>144101168A singer who had a rumour told about her where she froze a poo in the freezer then used it as a dildo
>>144100885Tough draw for united in CL this year
Going to very much enjoy seeing all the prem clubs crash humiliatingly out of Europe again this year, the English have once again been getting arrogant and they'll pay for it. Sole exception being City who are a good club and play decent football.
>>144101225lmao fucking hell
>>144101088What the fuck lmao. They could've rung the Saudis at least
>>144101088Surely they could get someone that knows how the market works right?
>>144101215>Tom Brady responds to David Beckham as he teases Lionel Messi to Birmingham Cityhe posted "I'm bringing @leomessi back to Birmingham with me. Sorry, @davidbeckham."finally pessi in league 1 is happening
>>144101229>who are a good club
I remember a couple weeks ago some anon said there'd be big money deals coming from man u and arsenal for chelsea players at the end of the window as something of a quid pro quoHe was right I guess but I'm not sure I would call this big money deals
>>144101225quintessentially british
I love how united have done the same thing they do every year (overpaying for Dutch shitters and cast offa from big clubs) yeah they're acting like it's a new era
>>144101229Shut up 190.
>>144101193Remember, you're here forever
>>144101228top kek
>>144101243They are already paying him Saudi levels of money, doubt they could get the zesty cunt to go out there
>>144101248Our League 1 would be an upgrade over the Uber Eats one anyway
>>144101250the wages are big money i guess
Is there a reason arsenal keep buying all of Chelsea's washed players? Is it some kind of cuck fetish?
>>144101225https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ice-docking+lisa+stansfield >it's real What the fuck.
>>144101193sancho deal is a loan with obligation
>>144101249Literally no problems with City, well-run, support their youth, great players, nice football. The least embarrassing club of the top six by a long shot.
>>144101250Man Utd spent big money on that PSG flop
Nice
Well that's enough of this LARPing little dickhead
>>144101295>nice football
>>144101218wasnt there rumors that the chain of events that led him to leave spurs started because he wanted lukaku there too and the club refused
>>144101250These aren't really quid pro quo, this is Chelsea panicking and trying to get anything for Sterling. Sancho going to Chelsea is odd because it's only a loan and while United will get a loan fee and I assume wages off the books, unless there is an obligation to buy United aren't in a good position unless he rapes it up for Chelsea and they can sell them.I don't even understand why they went for Sancho, so that might be a quid pro quo thing but I just thought maybe it's for home grown rules as they removed Sterling.
>>144101305>shitters so obsessed with United they literally buy players called ABUCouldn't make it up
>Get rid of Shitling>Bring in ShitchoWhat's the point?
>>144101315>unless there is an obligation to buyThere is
>>144101290Maybe because they actually know how to use them, unlike that retard Boehly?
Seems like Boehly's Strasbourg isn't on the same page with Boehly's Chelsea
>>144101325Sterling was home grown, so is Sancho. Gotta keep that quota in so replace him.>>144101335Oh, is there? What is it?
>>144101305This is /epl/ retard. Non league shit is off topic
>>144101314yup
>>144101325Boehly works in mysterious ways ours is not to reason why
>>144101347Loan this season, obligation to buy next season. Fee not mentioned (even in article) https://x.com/David_Ornstein/status/1829620974649762030
>>144101341
>>144101350Is it now? Who made you a janny?
>>14410134720m
>>144101325And Sterling will come back next season so they'll be stuck with those 2
>>144101341Does Strasbourg even know they own him? Does Boehly even know he owns them?
>>144101338Are we still pretending Jorginho and Havertz are good? Do we have to pretend sterling is good now too for consistency sake?
LIVERPOOL SIGN BENT!!!!HUGE LATE NEWS!!! GENUINELY CANNOT BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENINLIVERPOOL. SIGN. BENT. https://talksport.com/uncategorized/127209/breaking-news-liverpool-sign-bent/
Gyokeres news when?>>144101341but they are both equally shit. It's just a waste of printer ink, and paper.
>>144101369>The deal will see Sancho move to Stamford Bridge on a season-long loan with an obligation to buy for around £23m next summer.that's what dailymail reports
>>144101341Suspect there was a bumming from the authorities in the pipeline if they actually went ahead with something as blatant as that. One of retard bossman's underlings must have seen sense.
>>144101371top kek
>>144101387now this is a classic. there needs to be another player called bent so it can be brought back
>>144101401That makes the most sense
>>144101399Wow that's a hefty loss for United. The Sancho deal could be the worst in PL history purely because he was scouted by Utd for so long and no-one else even wanted him.
>>144101369Mental. Thought it was just a loan (plus loan fee).>>144101377Not too bad. £70m loss for United but Chelsea could prob resell him for £30m if he performs OK.
>>144101028omds

Sterling to Arselel was an indirect good move because it cucked manure out of signing him and he would have actually improved that shit team.
>>144101429>Jadon Sancho>€39MWell you can't count that now
>>144101415Nah for me it's >let pogba leave for free>he's part of amazing Juve team>buy him back for £100m>start huge #Pogback campaign>he flops and they let him leave for free again
>>144101415lukaku is worse
>>144101341what were these two retards doing all daydumb and dumber
At this rate when Osimhen does move it'll be for a packet of fags to Saudi or £200 million from Boehly. Napoli still holds out hope for the Boehly Billions Blessing
>A bit more on Jay Stansfield's move from Fulham to Birmingham - the 21-year-old has signed a seven-year contract with Blues.Tom Wagner genuinely has been taking lessons from Clearlake Capital. Absolutely retarded.>>144101431United already have shit wingers with no end product.
>>144101429>kwabwalaalso top kek at 500k for donny
>>144101399honestly 23m isnt bad at all if maresca gets something out of him

>>144101431he will be at man u next year
>>144101386They are miles better than they were at Chelsea, and Chelsea have done nothing but get worse in those positions since they left
So did Chelsea pay the loan fee for Sancho?
>>144101431United didn't want him. Chelsea wanted to use him in a swap deal for Sancho.
>>144101448Shouldn't have tried the usual Italian shenanigans on the Saudis when they'd agreed a fee.

>>144101460>>144101399>>144101429so is it 23m or 39m...
Meanwhile when Arsenal sell players to Chelsea, they turn out to be shrewd buys like Giroud.
>>144100885
>>144101456They must be paying Stansfield some pretty mad wages as well
Chelsea rattling cages again
>>144101431Arsenal prob only signed him because they got rid of literally all their English players so home grown quota is fucked (I know Raya counts as home grown) but they lost>Nelson (loan)>Nketiah>RamsdaleSo Sterling at least keeps them in that.
Staying in Sheffield tonight Fucking hell
>>144101371some chad shop boehlys face onto these
>>144101491Mostly decent fees too I reckon.
>>144101431Nigga if he signed for United you would just call him a worse rashford, at least be consistent

>>14410142914 transfers is incredible for INEOS' 1st transfer window
>>144101573 Is that Raheem sterling??That nigga has been on my mind. No cap, I been thinking about that time when I barebacked him raw in a Boca Raton Air BnB. That shit had to be the tightest, blackest, wettest boy pussy I've ever laid pipe into. I swear to God, the most heavenly high is gargling that wonderboy's nuts while going fist deep into his shitter. I had Sterling screaming in the sheets with head too ridiculous to ignore. That nigga frotted my cock until he busted on my mouth, I had to return the favor.That nigga Sterling and I been fucking non-stop ever since, but keep that shit on the DL. He does that shit for free. If you're gonna ask me how to "long" Sterling , I'll be deadass. All you gotta do is ask, be straight up, and get physical real quick. Touch his nuts, get on ya knees, talk your shit. He doesn't play around with no pansy-ass niggas either. He likes his men manly, and his dick thick. Dark skin, 6'5 is the minimum and I ain't talking about height boy.That nigga Sterling stole my heart and drank my seed.
>>144101570Yeah they had to operate his balls twice
Update on chelseas washington deal collapsing" Turnaround: at the end of the afternoon, the arrival of the player purchased for 16 million euros in the summer of 2023 was canceled for reasons which remain to be clarified. Is it because, as The Athletic suggests, the Premier League could study its structure, as it gives itself the right to do on transactions between clubs held by the same owner? The transfer of Diego Moreira, who went from the Blues to RCSA for €9 million during the summer, could already be. In any case, we will not have to go that far in the Washington file. "Basically seems like Clearlake pushing the envelope as far as they can until they're told they're not allowed. Speculation is maybe this deal was seen as too dodgy or sketchy lol.
Sterling is good actually and if anybody suggests otherwise I will aggressively shitpost about you for months until you leave the thread
>>144101513
>MUFC confirmed signing of 18yo Mali youth defensive midfielder Sekou Kone from Guidars FC - fee just over £1 million.That money can fund them for a decade ig. Always like it when some small community club gets some insane cash windfall because their talent got signed by some elite club.

Am told, on Sterling, Arsenal paying no loan fee and less than 50% wage contribution — Miguel Delaney (@MiguelDelaney) August 30, 2024
>>144101917Of course they aren't lol. Best mates don't ask for money
>>144101917Big brain moves: Openly banish player on £325k a week Loan player to direct rival club for no fee and cover over half his wages and have no obligation to buy Loan in an objectively worse player and have an obligation to buy them for £25milltodds cooking
>>144101917>boehlynomics
>>144101660>Thai foodFor when you like a Chinese, but miss the arse destroying fire of an Indian.
>>144101917todd must have a cuck fetish at this point
>>144101931TRUSTTHEPROCESSi will spam this forever, you bongs will eventually learn your lesson. todd is a big brain american in a small brain sport. his decisions will be vindicated in the end.
>>144101917>less thanWhat the fuck. How much less? 49%? 48%? 47%? Even 50% is 'oh my fuck' tier.
Interesting that everyone's saying Sterling's wages are too much only for Chelsea to step in and do a nice big favour to Arsenal no questions asked. What a philanthropic business Clearlake is.
>>144101993current sterling on anything more than 100k is still a negative
>>144101945Chinese has fuck loads of food variety. Sichuan is 'arse destroying fire'. Even Cantonese is if you find a place that loves chilli and garlic. >>144101993Or, you shouldn't have publicly told your player on £325k per week that they're not going to play a single min in the team this season, essentially told them you're going to play with the kids for the remainder of your three year contract and suddenly realise that is essentially £50m you're going to be paying a guy who isn't going to contribute to the club so you're willing to pay £200k per week to him and get him out of the club he will undoubtedly stink up simply being there.
>>144101917Chelsea must be a tight with PSR to take such a huge L while offering a rival a lot of upside and almost no risk.
>>144102011Nobody knows how much. It's less than 50%. But some have reported it is a 'fraction'. Which is used when it is extremely small. I wouldn't be surprised if Arsenal are paying 25% and it's part of the deal to keep that quiet.
>>144101561>will have played for 4 of the big 6 before age 30when do you lads reckon he's going to Spurs and uhhhhh I dunno, Newcastle?
>>144101917A lot of talk now but a lot of quiet voices when Chelsea smash Palace 5-0 tomorrow
>>144102069unitedxirs...
>>144102069i can see levy slurping him up when his chelsea contract ends
>>144102011Sterling is a good player. Just very interesting to see Chelsea being so kind and generous to an alleged league rival.
>>144102067i mean i guess if they can get him for 25%-ish seems like a solid squad option, but he's been shit for years. on the other hand, maybe his shittiness is just cause of chelsea (although i don't think that's true still think he's washed)i say all this and i expected him to be like 32, he's 29 (30 in december) i just googled. crazy. feel like he dropped off very fast considering his age
>>144102067Well if it was a 'fraction' then it's either 1/4 (25%), 1/3 (33%) since it is 'below 50%' and 'fraction' is used for simple shit, not like 3/5's.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-13784151/PFA-end-BOMB-SQUAD-Chelsea-expelled-Raheem-Sterling.htmlPFA want an end to BOMB SQUAD banishments after it was revealed Chelsea have exiled 13 players who are not permitted to train with the first team The PFA want the Premier League and FIFA to put an end to mass banishments
>sancho deal cancelled
>>144102124Here are the banished players.
>>144102098this is sort of adjacent to your point but also not really, always found it funny how incestuous chelsea and arsenal seem to be with players, you'd think since they're london "rivals" and top 6 yadda yadda they wouldn't really transact with one another but there's a decent amount of back and forth
>>144102069honestly im surprised either of them didnt take a punt at him considering his exileprobably has to do with the wage structure
>>144102088fuck, I'm getting oldif not Newcastle I was going to say Everton
>>144102165although after i post that pic and reconsider my post, seems like its more one way traffic
>>144102165Most are youth movements.
>>144102176>mfw i thought you were bantering them but theyre actually just that irrelevantholy based
lol
>>144102165On the contrary, what you're seeing is definitely related. These transfers make no sense in a competitive environment.
>>144102165chelsea arsenal and city love buying players off eachother
>>144102229>jermaine beckfordthats a name i havnt heard in forever. he had like 1 good year at sneeds or something
>>144102112He hasn't hit the 20 g/a mark in a while but then again I don't think he's ever hit that other than when he was at City and City was at their utmost peak. Even in his last season with them he got 18 g/a (17 in the season before that) which is respectable and only like 3 goals/2 assists behind KDB who was their highest scorer that season. I don't think anyone is going to say Sterling will hit those numbers again but even if hits half those numbers, which he kinda did even at that terrible Chelsea, then he'll be incredibly useful for Arsenal.
>>144102208true, but havertz jorginho willian luiz giroud, feel like you dont see that sort of activity between other top 6. the last united/liverpool non-youth player was in the 50s, spurs/arsenal campbell and gallas, etc. i know chelsea and arsenal don't consider each other actual rivals in the vein united liverpool do but still top 6, london, all that. they seem to be pretty happy to transfer is what i was suggesting
>>144102161I thought they'd all be boomersWhat did they even do just be shit?
>>144102260>those numbers again but even if hits half those numbers, which he kinda did even at that terrible Chelsea, then he'll be incredibly useful for Arsenal.fair, i suppose. if they can eat the wage which it sounds like they can. doesnt start over saka or martinelli/trossard though does he?
>>144102208Assna bought Havertz when they could've bought a striker (let's say, Watkins or Toney). Without that sale it's very likely Chelsea would've failed FFP.
>>144102319>doesnt start over saka or martinelli/trossard though does he?Definitely not over Saka but an case could be made for Martinelli. Arteta seems to love bringing Trossard off the bench (to great effect so fair enough I guess) but Martinelli also seems like a fan favourite so idk. But Arteta also used to work with Sterling at City so maybe he's got a pretty strong case on the left wing. Can they play immediately after being signed btw? Like, is it possible for Sterling to play tomorrow?
giving someone your owners paid 60m for 2 years ago, a premier league all time forward for free, one of only two or three wingers in the premier league 100+ goals club, to your biggest rivals, all so that you can make space in your squad for the arrival of Jadon Sancho, one of the biggest flops in premier league history. it is very worrying times for Chelsea F.C. If Sterling performs at 50% of his best (and I think he easily can), then Chelsea, Maresca, Boehly, Clearlake are going to be annihilated for this deal all year. Don't even think Sterling is unprofessional or declined.
>>144102369>Can they play immediately after being signed btw? Like, is it possible for Sterling to play tomorrow?dont think there's any regulation preventing that but likely would never happen cause the manager wants to impart their wisdom and such upon the player, for the same reason i dont expect chiesa to even come off the bench until after the international breakand the martinelli fan favorite comment, i watch a lot of arsenal games but not every game, im not a customer of theirs, i thought people are fed up with him now, did something happen? he looked really solid a couple years ago
There was a season when I watched almost all the city games when they had sané and sterling as wingers and in my memory both of them played very well and each of them scored almost every game. Since the transfers both of them seem like different players. So it was just the bald fraud who made them good all along I am led to believe?
>>144102369>Can they play immediately after being signed btw? Like, is it possible for Sterling to play tomorrow?no
Why have Palace got it in their heads that theyre some sort of miniature st Georges turning out next generational talentWe should be looking to City's academy why are all these shit Palace players getting call ups man
>>144102399>the manager wants to impart their wisdom and such upon the playerGood point. With the international break coming so soon I suppose Arteta will probably just wait before debuting him.>i thought people are fed up with him nowOh shit I didn't realise. I guess it makes sense cause it'd be his second season being meh now. The copium as far as I'm aware is that he doesn't get much support from the left side like Saka does on the right ever since Xhaka left but I don't know how much truth is in that. I think defenders probably just figured him out for the most part. He's got incredible pace but I don't think he's got anywhere near the dribbling skills Saka has so he can't easily get away from players other than he just out sprints them. Honestly I don't know enough about the game to really tell what his malfunction is. Everyone memes the fact that he always stares at the ground but he did that in his good season too so obviously that's not the problem. >>144102523aw man
>>144102369players must be registered by 12pm the working day before a game
>>144102379>Don't even think Sterling is unprofessional or declinedI also don't think that. Is it just public opinion that changed around him or what happened? Was he exposed in that chelshit side?>>144102161Also this list seems pretty strange to me. What happened to chilwell for example? I remember him being a solid wing back. Something about the locker room? Sterling too. Some of it just doesn't make sense to me. I can see how most of the players like chalobah and broja are rather fulham fc tier but still
>>144102546>Oh shit I didn't realise. I guess it makes sense cause it'd be his second season being meh now.no you see misread my post, i was saying despite watching arsenal games i dont really have a clue about them but i thought i had read martinelli is no longer that good. if that's true or not idk maybe some arsenal fan can comment but they all hide away in their weirdo general
>>144102573>Was he exposed in that chelshit side?no, he was their best player year 1 and 2nd best player year 2
>>144102573>What happened to chilwell for example?pic related is his problem as far as im aware
>chelsea needed 2 player swaps and 4 sales/loans to Strasbourg to meet FFP oh no
>>144102573>What happened to chilwell for example?they decided they didn't like his contract so they sent him home and absolutely destroyed any leverage they may have in selling him for absolutely no reason, pretty similar to Sterling actually who they basically paid Arsenal to take
>>144102562Ah I see. Fair enough. Thanks anon.>>144102586Oh right, yeah, I don't know if they're fed up with him or if he's still a fan favourite. But I can easily accept that they'd be fed up with him cause like you said he's no longer that good. I guess I just assumed he's a fan favourite because he always starts but that's more on Arteta having favourites.
Soon
>>144102637>But I can easily accept that they'd be fed up with him cause like you said he's no longer that goodi didnt say that, i said i HEARD that but i dont know if its true cause i dont watch every arsenal game and know all the inner workings
>>144102612Source?>>144102523They can, as long as they are registered in time. Chances are Sterling will not be registered in time (if it even has happened, it's 1am and no confirmation).
>>144102701>as long as they are registered in timewhich sterling cannot be so shut your stupid fuckin mouth before I shut it for you
>>144102714Except >>144102369 asked 'can they play immediately after being signed'. The answer is 'yes' with the context they are registered in time. It is still possible for him to be registered in time, but it is unlikely. As long as The Player Status Department gets the info, they can do it. If they are still up and Arsenal's legal guys are still up, they can register him for tomorrow. But most clubs won't bother rushing it.So you're wrong. Also you couldn't break out of wet paper bag you fucking plank.
>>144102665My bad. I understand that you didn't say that. But yes, Martinelli hasn't been very good lately. Last season compared to the one before that was pretty poor from him and he looks to be in the same rut in this season so far. >>144102649I hate that every single fucking website uses webp now.
>>144102792
>>144102792yeah i wasnt mad at you just was clarifying that i personally don't know enough about his every game performance to say whether hes now good or shit, but just heard that it's been on the downward trend, whether thats true or not is what i was asking. but full circle back to why we were discussing this to begin with, if arteta keeps trossard as that super-sub option maybe sterling gets some playing time over martinelli? who knows. will be interesting to see
>>144102783>The answer is 'yes' with the context they are registered in time which is required to be 12pm the day before at a minimum, which isn't immediately you thick cunt>>144102783>If they are still up and Arsenal's legal guys are still up, they can register him for tomorrow.no they can't glue sniffer, nobody signed after 12pm Friday can play a weekend game
>>144102792also, i have a plugin for firefox that force saves webp to whatever format i want, would recommend. i hate webp.
Ivan Toney will be even more of an afterthought now..
>>144102815Sterling can (and does for Chelsea) play on the RW. He is clearly the back-up for Saka since Nelson is going to Fulham (was originally Ipswich but he switched).
>>144102798I was hit with a .avif for the first image I saw. Wack. >>144102815All good anon. Does Sterling still have his pace? If he does then I can definitely see him starting over Martinelli in a bunch of games. That being said Martinelli does do a lot of defensive work (which was also part of the reason why people think he's shit now because Xhaka isn't there to clean up a lot of fuck ups so Martinelli has to work "overtime") and presses a ton and shit which I don't know if Sterling does. I imagine he does, because he played for Pep, but I just don't remember his game. >>144102832Might have to look into that at the rate this shit is going. I'm guessing that completely changes the file and doesn't change the filename and lets me save and post them here.
>>144102880but thats an interesting point, i mean you have to assume saka is gonna play the full 90 basically every game outside of resting him right? so wouldn't sterling be forced left wing more often than not>>144102889no comment on sterling pace cause not sure desu. but regarding webp idk how the plugin works, i see a webp, it gives me the option to save as .png or whatever i want and it works (pic related)
LMAO TONEY THOUGHT HE WAS BIG ENOUGH FOR REAL MADRID
>>144102792What causes this sudden use of webp?
>>144102947Definitely will look into that. Cheers.
Now that the dust has settled what was Todd's net spend t. cannot into maths
>>144102970would've been a better signing than mfloppe
>>144102889Sterling's pace is still there, he just hasn't improved much when compared to his times under brenny, finishing has improved from being dogshit to reliable enough but his overall game is pretty mediocre still, especially knowing that he broke the british transfer fee at some point, there's a reason why pep would rather play bernardo or foden on the right (Sterling's natural position) instead of him
>>144102880Right Wing>Apps>269>Goals>91>Assists>44>Goals Per Game>0.33>Assists Per Game>0.16>Total G+A>0.49Left Wing>Apps>172>Goals>51>Assists >49>Goals Per Game>0.29>Assists Per Game>0.28>Total G+A>0.57He performs better on the LW weirdly.

>>144103227I guess even "reliable enough" is better than Reiss Nelson (and maybe Martinelli) as far as Arsenal are concerned. >>144103239If you mean RW then if what Indonesia said is true about the right being Sterling's natural position then it makes sense.
>>144103298typical arsewog delusion
>>144103157Do you mean this window or in total? Like I can work it out for you but it won't include add-ons as performance based add-ons may or may not be achieved.>Spent>£220m>Sold>£148m>Difference>-£72mIf you want me to do that for since he took over...>Spent>£1.14bn>Sold>£439m >Difference>-£704mAgain, not including add-ons as Transfermarkt doesn't do them and converting from € to £.
>>144103239>>144103303Yeah I meant Right Wing, was a retard and messed up the shit.
>>144103351Holy shit lmao .. yeah I meant since he took over >704,000,000 pounds of sterling silver
>>144103303Yeah he might be a choke artist when it comes to important knockout games but he'd get the job done against midtable shitters so it's pretty unlikely that we'd see a repeat of last season's fulham games

I see 'Dave' is running through his gimmicks.
>>144103431>Is their manager trying to imitate pre Haaland Guardiola or does he want to get sacked before halloween?Fucking hell that freudian slipI just realised Arteta and Arsenal are basically the same.
No clue why Chelsea got rid of 2 great players Gallagher and Sterling who have played well for them.They must really want that relegation battle to happen, maybe it will be more interesting than 12th place again.

>>144103619>The England winger has signed a season-long loan at the Emirates, without an option or an obligation for the Gunners to buy him at the end of his spell.So he still has two years of potentially doing nothing when he's done there? Or is Chelsea hoping that he'll perform well for Arsenal so they can sell him? Arsenal would be absolutely retarded to buy him, even if he does well, simply due to his age (unless it was an absolutely steal and he dropped his wage demands, I'm talking £5m and 100k per week tops) but assuming that does not happen, he's still got two years on his contract at Chelsea so what happens if the expected happens and he doesn't do anything? Chelsea have to find somebody else to take him?
>>144103695>The England wingerWas he in the Euros squad?
>>144103757No and people were surprised because LW was a weak position and proved to be a major issue all tournament (yet still got to a final and STILL managed to fucking blow it, I still can't quite get over it).
>>144101579If FM is close to real life, then minimum 4 club grown players and 8 grown in england players for registration purposes
>>144103757hes been capped 82 times i think he qualifies as being called "the england winger"well actually he is jamaican but thats a different point
>Chelsea goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic will spend the 2024/25 season on loan in the French top flight, having signed for Ligue 1 side RC Strasbourg.>Petrovic moved to Stamford Bridge from New England Revolution last summer and made 23 Premier League appearances, keeping five clean sheets, in his debut season. The 24-year-old also started in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley Stadium.This whole thing i just dont understand.
>>144103795because retard southgate didnt play gordon when that was the obvious choice
>>144103795yeah a weak position because they left out Grealish and also had Trippier playing on that side, not because of anything to do with a washed Sterlel
>>144101579Of course. You don't need to own the player they just need to be at the club and in the squad.
>Liverpool midfielder Stefan Bajcetic has joined Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg on loan Klopps kids just need another 10 years
>>144103850Grealish, playing with the best team in the country (possibly Europe) managed 3 goals, 3 assists in 36 games. Sterling playing with a Chelsea team that finished 6th managed 10 goals and 8 assists in 43 games. He was statistically the better choice to take over Grealish and I think omitting Grealish was stupid as well.
>>144103902lijnders creating the new kloppo and the gang in austriajokes aside clark wont make it but i think bajcetic will if he doesnt get badly injured again

Sancho was still cheaper than Mudryk, and he helped take a team to a CL final.Mudryk will end up being sold for literal peanuts meanwhile United will get atleast half of Sancho's 2021 fee back.
Why can't we just take one of these useless red clubs out back already so we stop getting embarrassed in EuropeThere is no reason for say manure or Arsenal to exist, they have no organic supporters. Just get rid. I don't give a shit who replaces them. Give Villa a go, Leeds, I don't care.

United will need to keep Rashford, Amad, Garnacho and Antony fit at least until January otherwise it won't take long until someone being played out of position on the wing.I feel the depth is pretty thin as of now. could be because I totally don't want the horrific injury cases from last season to happen again. do United academy have some up and coming wingers that can be promoted just in case shit goes tits up again?

>>144105969Not only were they looking to sell to stay within PSR but Gordon was at the top of the list. If he'd wanted to move he could've put in a request. Did no one bother pointing that out to him? I don't use twitter.
>>144106338Actually insane that Liverpool spent $400mil on their stadium to go from 52k seats to 60k all because some slum lord refused to sell the Anfield Road tenements.

>>144106557Gordon never wanted a move, and Liverpool never wanted him. Made up football drama. When they have Gravenberch, Szobo, MacAllister, Elliot, and Jones in the exact same position why tf would they want more and would any player want to go compete for that.
I'll be flooding the /epl/ with my eulogy about Sancho. please be patient, I don't expect you to read anything from here but this is what I promised before.
>>144107357With the news that Sancho is inevitably moving to PSG (this is what is widely believed by the masses by the way), I want to deliver my eulogy about the hopes and expectations that came after Sancho was signed by United, now that is being buried for good.Jadon oh Jadon, the first time I came to know you was probably around 2 seasons before you came to United (so back in the start of 19/20 season, I think). I heard it from a bunch of transfer-seeker United fans, thinking he'd remedy the dearth of any actual talent playing RW at Man United (before that, the likes of Juan Mata, Jlingz, and even Rashford played there, hell even Ashley Young played there in 442). From the way these fans spoke highly about them (to the point that it could become some sort of cult), I was led to believe that this Sancho lad was supposed to be the Messiah, the Messancho if you will, who would lead United to its Renaissancho. Of course with me being completely clueless about Bundesligma, I thought 'hey, maybe I just need to trust these lots' while being clueless they too probably didn't watch a lot Bundes matches to actually form some sort of an informed opinion, instead of getting their opinion from some other twitterando. Well the 19/20 transfer window just passed like that, Sancho didn't want to move to the club that wasn't in CL, so United opted for a much cheaper option in Daniel James, the lad United bought from Swansea City. Well it never stopped those noisy United fans to keep wanting him to come so I had no choice but to listen to them yapping as always.19/20 season passed, United managed to return back to CL after beating Leicester City who had to start the aging Wes Morgan due to injury crisis. so it's time for another 'hyping for Sancho to United' round to come around again among United fans.
>>144107424Sadly that transfer window didn't produce le kino arrival of Sancho, instead United decided to bring in Van de Beek (a lad who ended up only playing 62 games for United in the span of 4 seasons, and in the meantime also got loaned to Everton and Eintracht Frankfurt), Telles as Shaw's rotational player, 2 Uruguayan in Cavani (a veteran striker from PSG) and Pellistri from Peñarol, and then Amad the Mad Lad from Atalanta. The transfer window that was deemed to be pretty controversial because none of the incomings had the expectation to fix the starting lineup which was pretty mediocre as it was. that transfer window also served as the grim remainder of how completely annoying Fabrizio Romano was because he spent every fucking day reminding about '120M OR NOTHING' about Sancho through his series of tweets. But hey, maybe United could buy him next year right? fast forward again, 20/21 season was done, at some point United tried to challenge for the title against Man City but the wheels fell off in the middle of the season where Pogba was injured (because that's what he always did in United) so United had to settle 2nd in the league table even though the season was not without its controversies. from 1-6 loses to Spurs, losing 1-2 against 20th ranked Sheffield United at home, being thrown back to play Europa League again because they finished 3rd in the CL Group Stage where they shamelessly lost against the mighty Basaksehir and went down 3-0 to RB Leipzig before they scored 2 goals but that wasn't enough to salvage their CL campaign. but here it is, 21/22 transfer window, and this time they actually managed to buy Sancho from the shackles of those German bottlers. 'WE DID IT' screamed by Woodward, Murtough, and some millions United fans all over the world. Well except me, because I never liked Jsanchz, and I much preferred for United to buy an actual premium striker over him. But I thought 'heh, maybe i'm just being a negative Nancy heh?
>>144107441Well on top of Jsanchz, United also bought a 36yo Ronaldo and Varane. Pundits somehow thought with these new additions, that United would go having a better season than before, and maybe they could actually challenge for the title for real this time. well they couldn't have been more wrong.I mean where to begin? It didn't take long to realize aging Ronaldo was a waning force despite him still being able to score sometimes, and that cost Ole his job and Ole was deemed to be a clueless manager because 'he couldn't come up with a tactic to serve Ronaldo well', the excuses that eventually became a lot-more-known reality after Ronaldo constantly crashed his NT both in WC 2022 and Euro 2024. Varane missed half of the season due to injury issues and Sancho was constantly benched because Ole didn't trust him enough. then came Carrick to steady a ship a bit before United decided to hire Rangnick as the new interim manager as United decided to seek for a permanent manager when the season was done. but Rangnick's appointment was merely a tip of the iceberg, the tin opener which opened a can of maggots which was the utter shitshow of the 2nd half of United's 21/22 season. winnable games became draws or losses, dogshit tactic being exposed to your eyes for full 90 minutes week in week out, Rangnick's presser that sometimes exposed stuff that should've been a behind-the-door secret like Shaw's family problem behind the reason of his missing. It was not for the faint-hearted, also it was not for fans who preferred to keep their eyes pure from the utter dross being served like this. We could only wish the season was done as fast as possible. Oh and Sancho finished the season playing 38 games with 5 goals and 3 assists, he also missed the last month of the season due to struggling with Tonsilitis. United finished at 6th, limply getting the last EL quota
>>144107463All were in doom and gloom, but United fans were convinced they hadn't seen the absolute best that our lad Sancho could produce for the team, citing the sheer imbalance of the squad and the destroyed mood in the dressing room surely impacted Sancho's impact at the United, so United fans were more than welcome to give him a lot of chance for the next season. And this time, in 22/23 season, United had a new manager, directly brought from Eredivisie, from a club called Ajax, a team that a couple of seasons ago were in UCL semifinal and could've reached the final if they didn't have some awful bottling moment in the 2nd leg against Lucas Moura's Spurs. But here it is, the new Reedemer in the town, the man which was touted to be the best modern football manager in the world. We were hearing such a progressive, super-attacking playstyle, with a stable defensive line and yet weren't scared to keep pushing up the pitch to exhibit more and so on so forth. This IS the new era boys and girls. and fans thought Sancho would, and I quote, "COOK" under this new regime. he'd fit with this fantastical Ten hag's tactic even though they couldn't explain to you how and why, or what even Ten Hag's tactic is.Aaanddddd he just farted another whole nothing of the season for United. the arrival of Antony made his chance to play on RW smaller, and Rashford was in his best form of his career, scoring 30 goals and having 10 assists in 56 games all competition so he also couldn't nail that LW position either. but it's not he didn't play a lot of games either. He played LW a lot of times when Rashford had to play CF due to the eternal absence of Martial and Ronaldo was getting a cold treatment by Ten Hag. but what makes it worse is that he disappeared. legit disappeared. into the mountain he went. for 3 straight months. while still being fully paid as one of the top-earners in United. insanity isn't enough to describe such shitshow. but he won Carabao Cup medal so heh.
>>144107487I mean alright it's not that bad i guess? Sancho managed to produce his best number at United so far, in the grand amount 7 goals and 3 assists in 41 games so that's quite an increase right? his first season, he had 5 goals and 3 assists in 38 games so if my math isn't wrong, 10 is bigger than 8 right???? well it shouldn't get any worse as he entered his 3rd season with United right???????????So we enter 23/24 season. Man United managed to finish 3rd in prior season, therefore they're eligible to play UCL again. People spoke about Ten Hag's United, that had quite a rough start of the 22/23 season like being battered 4-0 by Brentford, and that 6-3 loss against City, or that awful 7-0 loss against Liverpool which was weirder since they'd just won Carabao Cup prior to that match, that they could be quite an interesting force to watch for the next season, especially with the new addition of Mason Mount (the key player who won Chelsea their 2nd UCL), Andre Onana (a good GK with insane range passing in his weaponry), Hojlund (a promising tall striker that has a lot of potential to be developed) and Altay Bayindir (the turkish goaltending). with a stronger squad, comes with a greater expectation right??? and maybe with an even better squad, our boy Sancho will be even better right???????you know what at this point i'm too tired to type this shit anymore, but then I remember Gimai Seikatsu's author literally wrote a book in his X (formerly Twitter) account about his in-depth analysis just from the episode 9 of the anime (as shown in here https://x.com/mikawaghost/status/1829156647144677659) and I thought damn I can't give up just yet. So we enter 23/24 season, won 1-0 against Wolves, lost 2-0 against Spuds, won 3-2 against Forest (all 3 first games had Sancho benched), and then that's it for Sancho's 23/24 season at United.
>>144107505Ten Hag said he couldn't even give him a bench role against Arsenal because his effort in training wasn't enough to give him a bench role, and he retaliated hard by going to X with his incredibly arrogant, 'did nothin wrong' demeanor, to put quite a strong statement such as this:"Please don't believe everything you read! I will not allow people saying things that is completely untrue, I have conducted myself in training very well this week. I believe there are other reasons for this matter that I won't go into, I've been a scapegoat for a long time which isn't fair!All I want to do is play football with a smile on my face and contribute to my team. I respect all decisions that are made by the coaching staff, I play with fantastic players and grateful to do so which I know every week is a challenge. I will continue to fight for this badge no matter what!">publicly implying that Ten Hag told a lie that he's been lackluster even in the training ground>" I will continue to fight for this badge no matter what"off you go you bitch ass punk. He was immediately suspended from the squad, he had to train away from the rest of the team, he didn't even have the right to eat in the cafeteria together with his mates. What an absolutely retarded person to have in your team.So that's it, 3 fucking PL matches in and he was already sent to the shadow realm, not even played for the reserve team, he's just there rotting away, trained with a personal trainer just to make sure he didn't just sit on his ass, playing FIFA in his PS5 until 2am in the morning while still collecting his premium paycheck. he'd stay like this for almost the next 4 months before being reluctantly loaned to Dortmund so that his transfer value didn't completely reach 0 pounds.
>>144107521And what did he do at Dortmund? really not much at all. Which is ironic considering he was supposed to be familiar with the league, and hell, familiar is an understatement, he was supposed to completely dominate the league or otherwise United wouldn't come knocking and paid for his lazy ass around 73m pounds with add-ons. He played 21 games at Dortmund, only getting 3 goals and 3 assists in his stay there. Although there was a time when Dortmund's twitter admin got beyond smug just because he produced a 3-minute worth of skill compilation when they played against that sorry ass PSG side, and United fans were meant to be humiliated by such banter. Of course United fans were proven right in the end, he didn't do anything when he reached UCL final against Madrid, many many take-ons that ended up fruitless because he kept losing the ball anyway which is something that we United fans already got used to see it. Although United fans didn't exactly have the mood merry enough to laugh at this Sancho's downfall since United finished at their lowest PL rank since??? idk back in 80s or 90s I think? I've completely wiped out all my memories of ever watching from this season anyway. but Man United won FA Cup miraculously and that's the reason why United still could play Europa League next season.So we enter 24/25 season AKA Sancho's 4th season at United. I think it's pretty shambolic Sancho has spent this long at United and he still couldn't reach 20 G+A combined. I kinda had a feeling ten Hag also got tired from everything, from ended up victorious after having his 23/24 season being reviewed by the new partial owner in Jim Ratcliffe, and then he had to return to the training ground and face the same old Sancho with his anger-inducing smile as he got late again for his first training session with United since forever.
>>144107534At first there was supposed to be an armistice between these two, Ten Hag said that 'a line has been drawn', allowing Sancho to return with everyone else and join with their preseason and even starting for a lot of those preseason games as well. but ultimately I think both guys just knew it just wasn't meant to be. Ten Hag clearly preferred to give Amad some chance and Antony, despite being completely dogshit, has never shown a complete disrespect to ten Hag despite some occasional rants of why he needed to play LB at times. And for Sancho, good lord no one knows what even is in his mind, or is there anything inside his mind. And the conclusion is Sancho had to leave, he's now being loaned out to Chelsea (despite them having like 6 different players who can play both flank already) and except Chelsea's season gets thrown into a waste land, the clause to make Sancho a permanent Chelsea player will be activated, and that pretty much spells out the last time we ever saw Sancho donning a United jersey, which was kicking a very dogshit penalty which got saved easily and that led to United not winning the Community Shield after Evans' horrible penalty.I know I wrote a lot, and maybe I specifically wrote this thing just to annoy you all. But I think it makes for a funny journey, to which I traced back every opinions I've gathered throughout the years since the first day Sancho got signed until this very day. just let it be known, I've been against his signing since the first month of his signing, i've fought a countless people on the internet, saying that I was wrong, saying that I only hated his signing because my Daniel James got kicked out due to that, saying that I must've been blind because I couldn't see the skills he showed back when he was at Dortmund along with his impressive G+A there. the debate got heated so much to the point I got kicked out because 'you're just being fucking creepy, dude'. And as a result I moaned about him more on /epl/.
>>144107554And I can proudly say I've won the battle. I don't know if I'm actually proud of it but in the smallest of chance I'll get to be famous for doing anything else, I'd like to have a small info box on my website that my greatest achievement in life is actually accurately predicting Sancho would be a bust, way ahead of everyone else.Well 3 years have passed, I hope I don't end up with obsessing other player United have signed or will sign in the future as bas as this dude. thank you /epl/ may we have a good season.

>>144108935Coutinho money was used reminder they think Chiesa for £10m is a steal. Guessing they dont watch serie a
>>144108807I mean are they wrong though?
>>144108996yes. 3 reasons1. Howe can leave whenever he wants i.e. the available England job2. their successful window has been on the inactivity of Liverpool and City not pursuing Gordon/Guimares3. they may end up being better off cashing in big on one of them to improve the team anyway
>>144108975>Guessing they dont watch serie anobody does lad
>>144108996I think it's true in that the window could be much worse. Also, no sense in spending just for the sake of it. But Miguel Almiron as your only attacking threat on the right this far into rebuilding is grim and clubs will have sussed out how to beat them now. It'll be a hard couple of months if they keep piling up injuries again.
>>144109018They also retained Isak unless I’ve missed some newsGet your point about cashing in though. Brunos stock will probably never be as high again, it seemed like teams were actually thinking about paying the release clause
>>144106419Because he's changing room cancer.

>Man Utd sign Mali midfielder Konéwill he be the Mansa Musa equivalent of premier league football?
Guys, I created a much better CL format:1. 16 teams so no shitters2. 4 pots of 43. Every team plays 2 teams from each pot, 1 home and 1 away4. 5th to 8th play 9th to 12 with the former set of teams having homefield advantage5. 1st to 4th play the winners of the previous around; again the highest seeded teams have homefield advantage6. The semi-finals are 2 legs with away goals possibly brought backThis format allows for:>same number of matchdays>better games for a better competition>more games per team so that the money of the competition is spread around more than if you had more knockout gamesThis is the right format. Only people who don't want Sparta Prague in the competition will disagree, However, these sort of people never argue that Shamrock Rovers should be in the competition a well so we can disregard their opinion as reactionary uncritical wankery.
>>144109150better format: the rest of Europe make a "super team" and they play Real Madrid. If Madrid win they get a trophy. If Madrid lose the entire Madrid team get kicked in the bollocks by each member of the "super team"

>David Datro Fofana still expected to leave Chelsea in the next days.>Turkey, Greece, Portugal, Saudi and Holland among markets being explored to pick best option.>Hoffenheim and Sunderland opened talks to sign Datro on Deadline Day but negotiations collapsed.
>>144106108When you are trying to break into the big leagues PSR almost requires you sell a star player in order to act but they don’t want to take the risk. They should have taken the Gordon for Gomez plus cash deal. They would have had this team, kept Minteh/Anderson and had the ability to spend.
>>144109626i like anderson but only pure sentimentality would keep him in over gordon
>>144109643You could still have sold him too though. £100m for selling both would mean you could have spent big money with no Europe this year. Now there is a risk that Bruno or Isak get impatient if there’s another mediocre season and force their way out.
>kick out Gallagher and SterlingWhy though? To drop wages? Does the coach not plan with them?
>>144105975Was this a super league meeting a few years back? Whats happening here?

>>144109796Quit making us look bad, twinkle toes faggot. Big Boehly has it covered already.
>>144109759Just some rich Jews meeting and having a friendly conversation, don't worry about it
>>144109673i can't see bruno leaving although his form has oddly declined the more responsibility he's taken on, trippier is (or was) still clearly the unofficial head of the team so if bruno doesn't take his game to the next level i think he might end up being less appealing to the top buyersi do think isak'll leave maybe even by january, actually isak is my biggest worry because after crock wilson the only other striker is an unknown player who came in from blades and i can tell you already howe will start isak all 38 fixtures for the full 90 minutes and just drain the life out of himif the gomez swap and starting minteh over a new rw transfer had left the club clearer of psr than without i think i would've taken it, i was surprised how bearish some were about it, the team is desperate for depth and one howe training session away from throwing the reserves on
Why did city not replace Bencho
>>144109893they replaced him with James McAtee
>United fans shitting on Lindelof for stayingmeh, I can't be arsed desu. him moving out wouldn't add much to the money United have earned from selling other players. also he can play LB to an extend and we know the current depth isn't very secured on that position.not as egregious when United had the likes of Darmian, Jones, Rojo. now THAT's some bullshit scrounger.
>>144109626Maybe they shouldn't have spunked away over 100 million pounds last year on Barnes, Hall and Livramento only for the three of them to spend most of last season on the bench and they would have had a bit more room to maneuver
>>144110002Barnes was injured.
With these loan with obligation to buy, I suppose the permanent contract for the player the next year already discussed and signed? Or could you get into an obligation to buy but then the contract negotiations fail
>>144105975>me and lads discussing porn
>>144109214because they're cheap
>sancho loan will turn into an obligation if chelsea finish in the top 14surely they don't fuck this up
>>144110150You have to agree terms with the player
>>144110071Ok he couldn't sit on the bench because he was injured. Either way they've bought poorly since the new owners came in so them blaming it all on PSR is pure cope
I'm a bit disappointed to see Osimhen go to SA. He's one I've always wanted to see try out the PLTrash transfer window all round though. Nothing exciting and >we just sold our quality depth.
>>144110183>Either way they've bought poorly since the new owners came inHave they? You're ignoring Howe in all of this. I'll never forget a gassed Trippier and Burn being forced to play fullback against a Forest team on Boxing Day that raped them with counter-attacks while Livramento and Hall sat on their arses.
>>144110194Yeah they have, Hall and Livramento are shit. You make a fair point though, the sooner they move on from Eddie Meme the better
Dendoncker is still a Villa player
>>144110222>Yeah they have, Hall and Livramento are shit.And you know this because...

>>144110276>keeping GnontoSome turnaround from last summer.
>[The Athletic] Despite agreeing a £15M fee for Rabiot in 2022, Lou Macari (ex-Man United player who became a MUTV pundit) questioned the transfer live on MUTV. Rabiot was allegedly upset at the criticism before even joining, especially coming from the club’s in-house media, and had second thoughts about the move! what a fucking weakminded bitch
>>144110290This is why no club wants Rabiot.
>>144110194I think Hall wasn't one of Howe's even though he checks most of the boxes for a Howe signing. Howe is definitely an "I have my favourites" manager he's also not very hard nosed as when Almiron went on that one brief purple patch it seemed to convince him the RW was settled.That being said you're replying to shitizen who along with the aussie absolutely slated Barnes so you're wasting your time. Same thread also rinsed Gordon now they're begging for him. /sp/ will always be the worst place to talk about football.
>>144110225With Barrenchea gone on loan and Carlos invited I guess he's the last resort DM & CB.
>>144110258I've watched them play. I mean Livramento is ok but Hall is useless. They bought depth when they should have just spend a chunk of money on 1 or 2 players that could go straight into the first 11. Now they've got 2 average fullbacks and the depth is Tripper and Matt Targett. Oh and now they've got Lloyd Kelly too so they've just wasted another 15 million on a player that is never going to improve them. And they've got to play either Barnes or Gordon out of position if they want to use them both
lmao
>>144110328>Howe is definitely an "I have my favourites" managerKnew this from his time at Bournemouth. Charlie Daniels and Adam Smith playing as their fullbacks for years was mental.>That being said you're replying to shitizen who along with the aussie absolutely slated Barnes so you're wasting your time.Yes, I'd gathered that.>/sp/ will always be the worst place to talk about football.Because sadly most people here are clueless cunts who think they know more than they actually do.>>144110352>I've watched them play. I mean Livramento is ok but Hall is useless.Wow, truly exceptional insight.>Oh and now they've got Lloyd Kelly too so they've just wasted another 15 million on a player that is never going to improve them.That's Lloyd Kelly who was signed on a free transfer. Not £15m.
Morning lads, just woke up from a horrible nightmare where Chelsea signed Jaden Sancho and loaned Sterling out to Arsenal while still paying half his wagesAnyway, what did I miss?
>United wanted 40m for Sancho>Chelsea ended up getting the deal for 25m permanent (for next season) but that hasn't covered 13m from Sancho's annual wage cracking deal ngl. 250-300kpw just vanished from the wage bill like that.

Have zero time for PL clubs suggesting PSR "forced" them to do this and that. Lads, your club makes the kind of money 99% of other clubs in the world can only dream of. If you still manage to lose 100+ million over a 3 year period perhaps - perhaps - the rules aren't the problem.
