Leeds are an interesting story - they have won the league 3 times, but they also "did a Leeds" - effectively went bankrupt, and were eventually relegated two levels down to League 1, before earning promotions back the Championship, and then the Premier League.
I actually think its more likely that your guys get it done, than City.
I am indifferent toward the move, but I do have to say that I like the idea of a player named Chelsea playing on Chiesa.
And that is just the second audio. The first one caught him slamming Raul and Casillas.
I am not so sure I agree. Would love to believe it, but the owners made their big purchase in Sancho. I don't see them laying out another 100M+ for Kane. esp if they do get Varane over the line. They also seemingly want Declan Rice or other CDM who will cost a lot. Plus they need to sort out Pogba, Lingard and some of the other stragglers (Jones, Pereira).
Rashford out for 3 months...Pressure to start the season strong. If you move Pogba and Lingard, that frees up the money...
True, depending on what they get for Pogba (Lingard rumored to be 30m)
This man is a sicko if anyone wants to go down the Epstien Rabbit hole. His name pops up routinely in those circles
ok, so when do we put together the Futbolguys Ownership group and get one of these teams? Even better, does our group go after a lower division team and work to get them promoted?
Wonder what the handshake agreement for being an ambassador after retirement is worth?
It would have to go down as one of the dumbest management moves ever if Dortmund doesn't accept Chelsea's €150M+ bid this summer. His release clause for next year is half of that. Everything I read says their digging their heels in though, so who knows.
If I was a rich man.... this is where my investment money would go. I think we're in early 2000s NFL territory here with MLS. In 2000 the average NFL team was valued at just over $400M. Now, the average NFL team is valued at over $3B. I think MLS is about to blow up in the same way.
Google Bobby Bonilla former MLB player and his annual July 1st payday....
Dortmund wanted €120M for Sancho last year and sold him this year for €85 / £72.9M / $100M
Same with Lewandowski. Bayern got him for free after Dortmund refused to sell him the prior year to multiple suitors. Not that I blame them one bit. That club definitely knows what it is doing. I don't expect Haaland to leave Dortmund this summer.
for anyone wondering what a bream is: https://www.unlockingthesevern.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Common-Bream-4mb-1024x678.jpgThese Florentino Perez leaks just make my day
I hope the paper has an endless amount they drop one day at a atime

Florentino on Özil: "Mourinho grew tired of the relationship between Özil and an Italian model, and he told Mesut "You, bream, she has ####ed every Inter player, every Milan player, and the whole staff of those teams"
I was musing to myself a couple of days ago that FIFA should just go back and review film of the 1,826 games in the Big 5 European leagues and just time the games for how much dead time there is. Maybe there's an average of 60 minutes of actual play, maybe 70, I dunno, but I don't see how this would imperil the integrity of the game.
I think all leagues time this.
Not only would this neutralize dawdling tactics but it would also mute the domestic critics who are dismayed by the inconsistencies of time keeping in the game. I have a friend who is particularly incensed by it and I often tease him with tales of a game being won in the 97th minute (after five minutes had been added). He thinks I'm nuts but he loves baseball.
Option 1, for me. Better competition, more exposure, more opportunities.
This will 100% be his decision, we've let him know that we would support his choice 100% either way, and when we laid out the pros/cons, he definitely has a preference right now - he just wants to talk to his keeper trainer tomorrow morning at training (he is not involved with either club) to get his input/opinion before making a final decision.
agreed.
Ive always wanted a hockey style penalty for yellows. Makes the professional foul much more dangerous to the guilty party.
2x30.
