oh right. are you selling him or releasing him on a free?

 

no idea, either would be fine I guess but I always felt like he was a good dressing room figure so it’s strange to get rid of him. Maybe that is why we got Willian, keep some experience.

 

Spurs get 6 games in 15 days, can we delay our PL season too?

 

Thank fuck.

 

Helpful rest for your eleven man squad.

 

ahem it’s 12 men. don’t forget our buddy up in the var room.

 

Barca want VdB. Suarez/Ajax links yesterday. Swap deal coming?

 

Don’t put yourself in a situation to play EUROPA qualifying games.

Wolves did it last year and did alright.

 

Van der Vaart?! I know they have some golden oldies but surely that’s a step too far

 

lmao VdB**

 

I mean, I get it haha and I’m only half kidding

But isn’t the PL and domestic cup schedule itself more jammed at the beginning anyways?

 

Next year is just going to be mental top to bottom to be fair.

 

The fixtures are out tommorow, apparently. Rumour has it we play Fulham at home in GW1.

 

This season is going to be so disjointed. Leagues starting at totally different times, the Champions League & Europa League not even finished yet, but next season’s started... add the inevitable games that will be postponed due to positive cases (see Aberdeen & Celtic as early examples), the fact that teams are expected to travel across the continent for European matches and the potential of more postponements if we see bigger spikes in the winter... could be a wild season. It’s hard to predict what could happen.

I continue to feel for the smaller clubs who are balanced on a knife’s edge due to the lack of fans in grounds.

 

You can't defend against crosses like that.

 

It feels so dirty rooting for PSG today but you gotta do what you gotta do

 

Neymar has been fantastic tonight. He deserves a goal.

 

Idk I think Leipzig is still the lesser of two evils here

 

Objectively speaking...probably true.
But for me it would be the worst if Leipzig won the CL. Especially if it would be against Bayern in the final.

 

Both teams are a farce and a major blow to the integrity of whatever competitions they’re actively allowed to compete in.

 

Current reports are that Coutinho is going to be recalled to Barcelona and given another chance. From the players labeled “not for sale,” it appears Koeman already made it known this is his ideal 4-3-3

Griezmann-Martinez-Messi
Coutinho-De Jong-Roberto
New-Lenglet-New-Semedo
Ter Stegen

I don’t hate it. Dembele, Fati, and Puig also not up for sale.

Suarez, Rakitic, Pique, Alba, Busquets all basically up for fire sale. Some team is going to get a diamond in the rough season or two out of them yet.

 

Mukiele with what might be, and I’m not exaggerating, one of the stupidest things a player has ever done on a football pitch.

 

Ironic that this tweet comes from a betting company. They are not wrong, but we definitely could add betting companies into the mix of what is wrong with modern football.

 

Fuck paddy power
