    Granit Xhaka

    I think he’s a good player and would be a big improvement over Locatelli, but my opinion is based on the occasional time I watched Leverkusen winning the league. I don’t know if he has regressed heavily since then.

    Kosovo is part of Serbia, just so Xhaka knows. Hope Dusan leaves him a handwritten note with that information

    The Eden Hazard and Coutinho seems worse on paper. I don’t think when they were released the clubs also didn’t get a transfer fee.

    Yeah but why? What's the purpose of negotiating a 30m option if we don't intend to use it and penny pinch afterwards? We did the same with Alcaraz and had a massive option to buy we were never willing to use. Why even bother and negotiating then? This might work as a consumer wanting to buy a...

    Jadon Sancho - RW/LW - Manchester United

    I think Nico’s unsellable but most likely we’ll sell Weah and Mbangula for 25M-ish combined to fund this. Chico’s gone if we sign Jadon

    Jadon Sancho - RW/LW - Manchester United

    Out of curiosity, is this guy better as a left winger or right winger?

    would you feel comfortable with a line up of Hojlund and David frontline?

    we can also say Hojlund and Zirkzee have flopped? So we could help each other out here.

    Termination doesn’t make sense economically. If we just pay his wages is 12 x 2 24 million vs - 28 m would be the effect of termination

    I’d just strip him of number and let him train with the C team and make him McKennie’s personal driver and drive him to Burger King and KFC

    Economic effect: Item Amount Remaining amortization (years 4 + 5) €28 million Effect of termination €28 million loss (immediate) This worsens your financial results for that year and could also affect your Financial Fair Play (FFP) compliance. This worsens your financial results for that...

    Xhaka is a pretty solid midfielder imo. Way better than Loca

    Dušan Vlahović

    aThe way I look at it, we can hope on two scenario's: Man U are becoming more desperate by the day and try to sign him Extend contract 1 year, loan to Milan, covering 1/3th of his wages and with option at 15-20m is my best bet right now at this point. If he has a solid season over there...

    Serie A 2025-26

    I would take Allegri over Tudor any day of the week. His second stint wasn't successful, but it was obvious later with Thiago Motta that this squad wasn't good enough. Allegri had to do it with Miretti/McKennie Locatelli Rabiot and Chiesa and Vlahovic upfront. As turned out later, none of...

    Serie A 2025-26

    Love for the twitter pundits, but I do think a professional football coach with decades of football experience knows more about defense and transitions than we do. Also Allegri is probably one of the most tactical coaches ever since his Cagliari days.

    Jadon Sancho - RW/LW - Manchester United

    I think this deal is very risky, why pay 25 m for Sancho who hasn't performed in like 5 years. A loan + option would have made sense, but not this imo. The only way this makes sense if Douglas Luiz or Vlahovic are going the other way for an inflated transfer fee.

    Bundesliga 2025-26

    Just another confirmation that the current football schedule is insane. Nations league and now this CWC crap also? Just keep it at 35-ish league games and a couple of Champions league matches with the odd euros or WC every 4 years

    Maybe someone can explain me transfer dynamics but how the f can’t we get a player from olympique friggin Marseille? Balerdi cant force a transfer? Say to his GM he’s done with it and wants a new challenge and won’t train. This is a once in a lifetime chance for a 26 year old Argie defender. I...
