    Premier League 2022/2023

    Here's your post that I quoted : 'Couple of players in Man utd team 2021/2022. Varane Pogba Fernandez Rashford Sancho Martial This is what ma dude has to start with, could sell and trade and buy freely to make it is own 😂' Compared that to this [Barcelona squad, including all the players I...

    True. His talent ID is bad. 100m on Antony was a big waste and he brought other guys like Malacia and Lisandro just based on his own knowledge of them. If he had a sporting director to take the transfers out of his hands it might be better, because it's questionable if Antony even improved...

    Premier League 2022/2023

    Pogba never played for Ten Hag. He left on a free transfer before this season started. Martial has been injured almost every single game so far this season. That's why they've had to play Weghorst. You're bringing up guys who are not even at the club or permanently injured to say he had some...

    Premier League 2022/2023

    Ok I'll write it in a way that's simpler to understand. You keep repeatedly stating that the amount of money spent dictates what objectives a team should be competing for, therefore you believe that money spent is the best indication of your squad quality and what it can achieve, and it is the...

    Premier League 2022/2023

    Not true that a team with B team players was inherited. What happened during Koeman's tenure last season and up to about January was a massive injury crisis, in which at one point dozens of players were out. Nowadays, 2 players being injured is enough for people to claim 'injury issues'. When...

    Premier League 2022/2023

    Xavi should get a 7/10 for the season. We can't take winning a title like this for granted and have put together a great league campaign. My personal question marks over him are the style of football and if that is sustainable for a project going forward, but we will see now, he's going into the...

    Premier League 2022/2023

    A lot of teams 'spend all that money' in the EPL. It is not LaLiga where only two teams spend money. Chelsea, Arsenal, City, Newcastle, Liverpool, Tottenham, even Notts Forest all spend big amounts of money recently. Not all of them can get top4 mate. It is also necessary to look at the...

    Premier League 2022/2023

    I assume you don't watch a lot of English football or maybe not before this season so you might not get it, but United haven't been a contender for quite a while now. They haven't won any trophy of any kind since that Europa League, until league cup this year. So you need to align your standards...

    Premier League 2022/2023

    United making top4 and league cup + potentially FA cup in his first season in management is great for them. They haven't won a trophy in 6 years before now and nobody had them in top4 predictions at the start of this season yet some here are claiming it is a failure. The bar is moving too quickly.

    Premier League 2022/2023

    Utd are set to finish above Klopp/Liverpool in only Ten Hag's first season managing United. That apparently doesn't make him close to Klopp but next season if Liverpool finish above them it does? Let me guess this season is a blip but next season will be taken into account if Liverpool do...

    Premier League 2022/2023

    What is being seen is that United don't have good enough or well suited players to control games and take the ball from their opponent. Too transition based which can get you some big wins but might not be consistent picking up points in the league. Players like Bruno, Rashford, Fred...

    The Negreira case

    Clearly that guy must have some other significant source of income because being a ref doesn't pay near enough to be able to fully pay up front for 7m property. They make max 350k a year gross. But yeah, the news doesn't state they are suspected of anything, just that they would be analysing...

    The Negreira case

    One of the referees investigated is Clos Gomez, who has some link to Caso Negreira, as Negreira Jr inappropriately informed Barca that he would referee the Copa Del Rey final 3 months before it happened. It has not yet been discovered how this information was obtained.

    The Negreira case

    Four top category Spanish referees are being investigated by the Anticorruption unit in Spain over suspiciously acquired assets. This is not currently/yet being linked to the Negreira case. All four have several properties worth millions each, that seem to all be paid for in cash, and did not...

    The Negreira case

    'Making sure the refs aren't biased' with payments is understood as CORRUPTION in legal terms. This explanation is not accepted legally because there is already the presumption of neutrality in sports and indeed the firm belief that there is. Nor is there any real evidence suggesting corruption...

    The Negreira case

    Sergio Canales to Del Cerro Grande during Betis-Barca : 'You send someone off every game we play. You know you are ending the game with this red card right? You don't have to do this. You don't have to give in man. You don't have to give in.' Wonder what he meant.

    Haaland wage is reaching a million a week with bonuses no? Lewa can't be on close to that.

    Jude Bellingham

    Madrid already have Camavinga/Tchouameni/Valverde, of which none have managed to hold down a role in midfield, now they are paying huge money for another one? Idk. Seems like they are focusing on their strongest area of the pitch when defense and attack been far more problematic.
