Hopefully we have an agreement, but as Lotito said words are nothing. Could turn worse for us if we never had a plan B player and go in P(j)anic mode. 'Cheap' solutions usually end up very expensive. Maybe new GM has it under control?

Griezman is a good player, but I cannot stand his personality. Anyway isn't he Dybala's replacement? I have a feeling that France would win the Euros and the demand for those players would go sky-high. They have the most complete team on paper. We are stuck with CR7. Probably trying to extend...

Maybe, if we sign the right 'normal' players. But we have too many holes to cover, we've done it with freebies so far and it doesn't work that well. We need to sign one to three WC potential players, while trying to keep those that we cannot effectively (90+%) replace on the cheapo. That's a lot...

TBH, I still fail to see the big picture of CR7's arrival. Yes, I know about his online presence and so forth. But if that was the entire point we could have signed Brad Pitt. I suppose on-field success was where the stakes were at. Surely COVID was not expected, and with hindsight we wouldn't...

Big clubs are never loosing a lot of money. In short that is how it is. It just sounds better as a propaganda. Clubs are tools in the grand scheme of things. They are the modern gladiators for the masses. Why do you think someone like John Elkann 'pours' money into Juventus? Because he wants to...

Are you crazy? Why do you think players like him? Think a little bit, would ya? On one side you have a club with billions of dollars, millions of fans and the platform , on the other a player with his dirty feet and a fat pizza maker. It takes a lot of smarts and guts to win such a negotiation...

Football isn't dying you fools. Whoever came with that idea must have his head shoved in Perez's or Agnelli's anus. While football is dying Mino, the opressor of poor clubs, is preparing to make Haaland the first 1M/week player. Yeah, sure, real inflation numbers are scary - but I don't see...

No one in their right mind would want an American system of any kind. The playoffs, those fascinating ideas, the novelty ... I mean thats why 'soccer' ain't so popular, right??? And why are those boring farts - the billionaires - buying(ops, saving!) clubs they knew nothing about a year ago? I...

John Oliver is an activist, not journalist. If there are problems in FIFA/UEFA I would think a massive club, never mind most of them would have the power to voice those issues. But they became fat cats under the yoke of UEFA slavery and stood mute. US capital has been trying to kill FIFA or buy...

Sure buddy. It can't be much worse anyway. We were knocked out by Porto (praise the lord they are not invited in this uber league and thankfully we have a 'legacy' seat, maybe even a trophy?), there were NO fans in the stands whatsoever (surely to improve, unless COVID-20) and we are about to...

I see that 'us vs them' mentality thriving in this forum. The real question is how and why do we need that change? So far despite the lack of 'revenues' and catastrophic losses the value of these same clubs is higher than ever before. There is a real market for them too. But competition is...

WTF is this? Champagne football at its best, played by Verona of course. Horrible stuff.

Chiesa is nothing to write home about. Meh player. Isn't bad as a young buck who'll intensify the competition for places, but not 50+M. And I know 50 today is like 15 a few years ago. Morata could be just what the doctor ordered. I think Diego Simeone's Atletico is a scrap yard for strikers...

Nobody wants to swallow a lower salary, shittier bonuses and little prospect for anything positive, other than a transfer. Let's not forget its not the 90's, but 2020 - players are being paid for potential and are millionaires by the time they hit 18. MDS is no exception and being average is no...

Kean doesn't strike me as a player with a particularly bright future. Granted he has the skillset and raw physicality, but lacks in the brains department. I was hoping getting kicked to the curves by Everton would ignite a lamp in his feeble mind to show him the right path and I know he is at...

If Suarez is available for free, he is a no brainer. Perhaps a 2 year deal? But first... maybe we can still get a dollar or two for Gonzalo? Ah, who am I kidding - we would have, if we could. On the other hand good CFs are never easy to find. Suarez now, Haaland next year and we have one of the...

Well, maybe they expected more from Rabiot and for sure a lot more from Ramsey. We didn't blow a lot of money, because we bought fantastic players and started wheeling and dealing with the lesser quality. Potato... I firmly believe they have a plan, but its a fact we've lost another year and...

CR7 was brought here to help us win the CL. Not win in by himself. So far he has been more than a helping hand in CL games, but we sacrificed midfield to accommodate him and it showed. Maybe the last coach didn't help either... But that's why we have directors that are supposed to see things...

How the hell did Barca manage to saddle themselves with all those wages? I mean- they don't have the space for la masia kids, but also have a whole attacking trident benched/loaned.

@Badass Dybala Are you sure about such law? I mean short of the city/country paying those debts, I can't see it happening. Barca are so broke, even the haters started pitying them.
