Vincent Kompany slid into your DMs :lol:

The Kenyon move and no gardening leave screwed us. I lost track of how many players we were allegedly scouting who suddenly ended up at Chelsea

According to our resident Barce fans it is all down to cheating. Other than that they attract a lot of the best players and managers, are ruthless when it matters with players and managers, they also appear to have the aura of the dominant united sides who beat teams before they turned up too...

Despite all the smug, snide and cringeworthy public backing I can’t see them putting their money where their mouths is and actually making a reasonable offer for him, despite a belief that we’d let him go on the cheap just to clear him off the books

Vinicius is also an example of a player thriving under real adversity too with all the racism and abuse he suffers, with a complete lack of backing from refs, fans, other clubs and the league. He’s just far stronger mentally than Sancho and always tries to perform to the best of his abilities...

Underrated reason to be ok with them winning all the finals they have. Another one is their fans are not sanctimonious bellends like the Barce fans, and they’re preventing them cheating swines winning trophies every year. Spent a bit of time working in Madrid, nice city and the people are decent.

Don’t dirtmund earn an add on from Bellingham winning league and champions league? They can use that to part fund. *yes I know Dortmund autocorrected to dirtmund and I'm leaving it in for the giggles

Take the boy out of Chelsea etc

Yes, just came to post the same thing. Stupid pass on the edge of the box

Real going to win this 1-0 and based off this match vs the FA cup we’d have pissed the champions league final :lol:

How will we stand on the home grown rule next season if we gut the squad and get rid of all the players we'd like to? Chalobah could be a cheap ish way around that, and would be a good squad player when fit. Cheaper, younger and more suitable for a high press than Maguire, Lindelof and Evans...

They haven't asked for records from 2019 onwards if I remember correctly, and I imagine if they were asked they would refuse and therefore have more recent charges too. The alleged shenanigans around Haaland's transfer are relatively new aren't they? My guess is they have never stopped and just...

Leicester had a wage bill of £96m or something in the Championship, Leeds were second (and well clear of the rest of the league) with a bill circa £56m. Leicester should have been promoted a lot more easily than they were in the end.

I was surprised the linesman put his flag up for the disallowed Rashford goal, these days they usually let them go to VAR. He did look like he was offside, but it was marginal and you mostly seem to see these left to VAR to decide.
