I don't get the sense that ETH has a strong enough personality to deal with the shit he's going to be faced with, on and off the pitch. Ragnick had the balls to call BS on a lot of it but not the skill to coach them into anything useful. Meanwhile Redgob is back, doing some kind of consulting.... aka meddling.
Ronaldo has always been a team of one - they knew it when they signed him, and then signed him again...
From your mouth to God's ears ... then toT HOR's sword as it eviscerates a freak in a stupid t-shirt....
Brighton held all the power - they had him under contract another four years. And both clubs have a propensity to plunk 50m on a fullback, so why should it be any different for Cucurella?
They bought a mercenary from Getafe for 15m and will sell him for 50m. Of course they are!! Either of these clubs should have been able to easily scout him in his three season of La Liga play (where he was quite good) and saved themselves 35m.
these guys are trying to buy every damn player in sight. Chelsea have had an initial £60m bid for Leicester City's 21-year-old French defender Wesley Fofana rejected. (Mail) The Blues are now considering an improved offer of £70m for Fofana. Barcelona are willing to offload 33-year-old Gabon striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Chelsea. Manchester United are set to walk away from a bidding war with Chelsea for the signature of Barcelona and Netherlands midfielder Frenkie de Jong, 25
Cucurella to Chelsea now confirmed. Chelsea will pay £55m fixed fee plus £7m add-ons. That's a lot of cash for a fb.
60m quid according to the bbc. the PL signings this window have been crazy, both in $$$ spent and number of players being brought in - especially by the Cheats, Arse and Spurs. and there's another 4 weeks or so to go! MU will also be splashing luicrous money soon, to satisfy their nutcase fans and grab headlines. thank god we got our (excellent) business done early.
Nobody they sign at this point will satisfy any of their fans. Frenkie isn't going there and they aren't signing Barella or Bellingham.
yeah, I think I saw something about him going to BHA, with Cheats having right of buy-back or something. he's been out injured for ages, maybe they think he's done.
