    Define "best"? Richest...yes. But who benefits from that? Certainly not the average fan. A Sky Sport subscription is ridiculously expensive and forget about attending matches. And it's only going to get worse. The richest clubs will continue to get richer and football will suffer in the end.

    Seydoux is a candidate to be new president of UCPF. I read the guy from Caen is another favorite. Caiazzo is not applying. Seydoux is bad for this job as he hasnt been able to take his club to the next level with the new stadium as he promised. He's going backwards instead. He just sold 2 more young talents to Monaco and Aston Villa and there's now 3 guys over 30 (Balmont, Mavuba, Odabbi) in the midfield.:laugh:

    Stephan El Shaarawy is coming to Monaco on loan. Anyone here a fan of this guy ?

    When Milan was good, he had a good season. Then he got hurt, Balotelli joined the team and affected the way Milan played, and he became a shadow of what he was his first season. He never got back to what he showed early on.

    I dont know what position they are going to have him play. It says he's primarily a left winger who can play as attacking midfielder or centre forward.

    Haha I get the joke but Monaco is small and they have more fans in Paris and the rest of the country.

    Meanwhile Mariano from Bordeaux is set to join Seville.

    Mevlut Erding is going to Hannover in Germany and they are bringing in Nolan Roux. Is that an upgrade ? Uhhh not really.

    There actually was a time when El Shaarawy was seen as the next world class Italian attacker, and there were some who thought he and Balotelli would be the starring lights of the Italy attack for years. It hasn't quite worked out that way, as both have had a catastrophic drop in value, and arguably El Shaarawy's drop has been even more precipitous than Balotelli's, since Mario at least has a few seasons, whereas El Shaarawy was a shooting star almost. Very bright during a half year spell, but nothing since. At the very least, we would hope he'd be good cover for YFC or Martial... but either way he definitely isn't a nobody.

    So do you guys think he has anything left ? He's probably burnt and Bielsa will run him ragged but I read Bielsa is the reason he signed so I have no idea. Makalele was older when he came to PSG and he gave them a few good years.

    PSG doesn't deserve to be dethroned until other clubs figure out a way to catch up with them. It may be impossible but they can definitely find ways to increase their marketing, sponsorship, and revenues, all of which they do a poor job at. Stop whining and get s**t done! Aulas seems to be the only one who is trying to make an effort to grow bigger and has a plan. I read with the new stadium he said their budget next year will reach 200m and yeah thats still far from PSG's budget but its enough to challenge them I think.

    One to watch though, this guy could break through and have a big impact.

    Thoughts of Bielsa potentially leaving Marseille to be the new coach of Mexico NT?? Apparently their federation are on their way to France to engage in conversation with the Argentine tactician.
