NO

the world needs to see the absolute shithousery of Suarez and Costa in the same team.

 

As someone who wants them to do well, that would be a good move, but seeing those two up top would be hilarious.

No running, just vibes.

Angry vibes.

 

People talk about Thiago Silva wasting his career at PSG, but Cavani is right there as well. Would’ve loved to have seen him in England in his prime.

 

how is playing for one of the top clubs in the world a waste of a career

 

Because the French league is terrible and isn’t challenging for PSG at all.

 

how is that different from if they were on Juventus

 

The French league is NOT terrible. It's the fifth best league in the world.

Lyon and PSG got to the semis and final of the CL. Marseille, Saint-Etienne, Nantes and many more are clubs with really great histories.

It's main issue is that outside of the top 10/15 clubs, the very bottom clubs are always weak and get pummeled. And yet, no one says a thing about the PL being weak when Leicester win 9-0 at Southampton or Man City win 5-0 every week at teams with 1/100th of their budget.

 

Ah, the... *checks notes*... beautiful game

 

Lloris, Doherty, Alderweireld, Skriniar, Regulion, Hojbjerg, Lo Celso, Ndombele, Son, Bale, Kane

Hart, Aurier, Sanchez, Dier, Davies, Winks, Sissoko, Dele, Lucas, Bergwijn, Milik

If these last two deals finally go through, our squad depth is going to be ridiculous. The second XI listed was almost our starting lineup for a good chunk of last year haha

 

"Terrible" was a bit dramatic, yes. But relative to PSG, I think it's pretty bad. That club has no real competition domestically. Which, imo, is why most years they don't perform to their expectations in CL. I don't really blame a player for taking the big salary and going there and winning every season. But I feel like these guys have a competitive mindset and like to challenge themselves. And I don't think they really get that challenge playing for PSG.

With Juventus, I don't think it's quite he same. I know they've won that league several years in a row but the league does have a little more quality in the top half imo.

 

Hasn't Cavani already signed a deal with Benfica anyway?

Edit: I guess not!

 

yeah I do kind of agree with this and it’s why I think a season like this was their best chance to win the CL. Even then the league fucked them over by just cancelling itself.

 

Looks like City is swooping in for Ruben Dias. I saw 60m + Otamendi.

Which means we better wrap up the Skriniar deal since Dias was the other target haha

 

Unlucky for Trossard there. Would of been a worldy.

 

Brighton look very good.

 

We will be extraordinarily lucky to get a point here. Brighton just the much better team in every aspect.

 

They’ve hit both posts and the crossbar now

 

The delayed offside call is annoying

 

This Brighton jersey is lovely.

 

Another penalty against United lol

 

Bruno should be hooked. He’s been atrocious and now given away a penalty.

 

Well deserved for Brighton. Think they could score a few more too.

 

Undeserved equaliser.

 

Already on a yellow when that penalty happened too. Thought for sure he was off.
