You 8-2 See One Team Score 9 Times- The Other Teams Thread

Not surprising.

Can’t expect to land every player with 2 years left.

 

This was expected. Always said they'd put him in Lewa, Neuer tier. Goretzka could be available for free though if he persists with 10 ME nett wages demand.

 

Latest from Di Marzio on Lukaku posted on Instagram- in the past few days he has told Inter he wants to accept Chelsea’s offer which is an upgrade financially but also a better situation to win trophies

Inter have told their directors to maximize his sale

Di Marzio added that Lukaku has not asked Inter to match the salary Chelsea are offering him in order to stay and that he had turned down Man City last spring because he thought Inter would have a more ambitious project than one we see now, Inter will go after Duvan Zapata now

I know EPL teams get smack for their hype but they're legit building up well for next season. This is after two teams made the final of UCL and one in Europa.

Interesting season ahead.

 

Is he worth 10ME net wages, even on a free transfer?

If we end up having players putting him on the bench and the majority of starting lineup on wages lower than he's on then what kind of discontent might we expect at some point after? I doubt guys like Casemiro, Valverde, Militao, etc. will be happy about playing their way onto the team the old fashioned hard way if they feel like they are getting shortchanged on payday. Half the team could end up in the "tier 1" wage category for it to make any sense or be "fair."

 

New season, time for a new thread?

 

Please make sure the title is nice this time lol

Wow, it's really happening. what a signing

 

Some one is pigging out

 

Just unprofessional.

You have work horses like VJ and Benzema doing military prep and then you have Neymar, Hazard just thinking talent along will see them through.

 

No need to get fancy

Barcelona is trash and “UEFA saved football”. The other teams thread

 

I had to stay in shape year round because I always had to fight for my job but I just find it hilarious people who don't have the discipline to even reach a professional level of sport are critical so heavily critical when players let go in the off-season.

It's his vacation time.

As long as he shows up in better shape and gets himself in fine shape without injury issues or delay due to that vacation time it shouldn't matter to you how he is spending his personal time.

 

And Neymar has never been one to not give an effort on the field or be out of shape in seasons

 

The only problem I had were with guys who showed up badly out of shape, using training camp to get into some kind of shape.

Usually those were guys with big contracts so obviously someone like me who was always in fight mode would detest them lol.

 

New thread title!

Bomba

MARCA is reporting that Messi is further away from Barcelona than ever before and his renovation is nearly impossible

 

Sucks but it's alright, we got Blanco, the new Kimmich

 

Let’s go PSG, give Messi a soft landing in Paris and shed some salary by shipping Mbappe to Madrid.

 

Smells like bullshit but we’ll know soon enough because I imagine there will be 20 reports echoing the same in the next few hours if it’s true.
