    I saw someone say that as a business Tottenham is in the best shape in all of the EPL, that stadium is huge and generates alot of revenue, they suck but they don't pay big wages and they've typically sold pretty well over the years. Winning and legacy isn't the most important thing anymore unfortunately, Italy's economy and country are shrinking, you can just look at which leagues are building new stadiums and getting revenue and tv deals to track out where the value is going.

    Italian league unfortunately doesn't even produce good young players to generate income, they overly rely on older guys and rightfully alot of the best clubs still want to win but Italian competitiveness will keep falling behind unless they change some things and find more ways to compete.

    Serie A still produces young talent though. Off the top of my head, Calafiori, Tonali, Huijsen, Casadei.

    They're still a good country but they sell like ass, Huijsen was 14m and Calafiori 45m, compared to alot of the other countries they just aren't producing or selling at good prices. Look at France for example, EPL poaching players all the time and within France the best young Ligue 1 players getting bought up for big money from PSG too. Italy doesn't produce enough talent these days to make it profitable, look at Portugal a much smaller country selling top young talents all the time for huge transfer fees.

    Speaking of Italy...

    ...Atalanta is reportedly interested in Davinson Sanchez.

    Wow! This surprised me a lot. He hasn't even been a regular starter or scored that many goals. But somehow they've spotted his qualities anyway, great for him. Hope he gets to leave.

    I actually think Alzate has done better from the games I've seen of Hull.

    Inter would be better than Liverpool.

    Already acclimated into the culture and playing style/tactics. Not much expectation in contrast to an overexaggerated, hyperbolic British tabloid type of environment.

    Now Barca would be okay but still high expectations and he would be compared to Mina by the fans. Would have to dig out of a hole of that reputation.

    No Spain curse for Lucumi please. Italy is our best league. Although it seems like Bologna will play CL next season again which is an amazing achievement if that happens.

    Seems like Bologna just won Copa Italia too? :eek: They lost their coach and several key players if I'm not misstaken and they made an even better season this time. Amazing.

    Seems like I was mistaken about CL. Bologna does not seem likely to qualify. So lets hope he gets sold this time.

    Would like it if we picked him up. Inter needs the defense to improve with how shaky we looked over the last few weeks.

    Eww Qatar is not even Saudi Arabia. At least he won't be bothered by horny women there.
    Probably True his market is dead in europe. It was a really long summer last year waiting for offers. Arias should do the same because he is even older.
    What makes me mad is that once you're in europe you have no problem at all playing until your 37 or something like that. 32-33 is no longer seen as old if you're already schooled in.
    But they don't trust you can adapt from outside europe if you're older,
    This is all on the club, if they weren't so greedy he could've had a nicer career and left a little cheaper to europe.

    This move makes a lot of sense from both sides, Barca are limited in funds and they need a Left footed CB. The Barca system under Flick is the most demanding possible for a CB, you need to be able to play a crazy high line, need to be fast and need to be able to be comfortable with he ball and want it under pressure.

    Financially and from a profile Jhon is a great fit, but the demands and pressure on the CB's are probably about the highest in the world because of the way they play, CB's in that system will give up goals and make mistakes, you're isolated 1v1 and aren't going to be sitting back in a deep line rarely and many players won't be able to mentally handle the ups and downs or unique demands. It's a high pressure high reward system and club, they might be a generational side with the young talent they have building around Yamal, but it will demanding and alot of competition but if it works Jhon will really improve and reach the highest levels imo.

    I am hearing Fulham for Rios as a rumor.
    Way better than Qatar but still not ideal.
