Transfer Tweets - Summer 2017 | Keep it on topic

Think UEFA will have to act on state owned clubs. It's not right that they use football in order to advance their political and economic interests.


Why would they, though, realy?
All they care about is the cash. If the eyes are on PSG then the cash is flowing coz the Champions League for example, gets more attention.
I honestly think UEFA's approach to PSG and to an extent City, has been 'if you can't beat them, join them'.

As in, they'll always find loopholes so why not just take a nice chunk of the proceeds if and when the revenue flies into European footy in terms of viewers and sponsors.
 
Wow PSG are going in hard this summer.

Feel sorry for Lemar, last star standing (6 days to go so you never know) Monaco are fools what happened to keeping all their players, basically giving the league back to PSG.
 
Damn it must be great to be a PSG fan right now. The club is not settling for anything but the best.
Perhaps UEFA will grow some and investigate this obvious pocket lining scheme they got going and ban them from competitions. Oh, wait. It's UEFA pockets that are most likely reaping the rewards.

It will take pressure from the marquee clubs in UEFA. I doubt Real will get involved due to their Middle East sponsorship deal and we usually don't get involved. Barca and Juve want something done though.
 

Inter have an agreement with Mustafi.
The teams are currently working on the deal as Inter would like to get him on a loan with an option to buy while Arsenal would prefer an obligation to buy...
 
Can we please get grzegorz krychowiak from you? Pretty please?

He will leave the club IMO

The Poland head coach told him to leave the club if he wants to be called.

He seems to prefer the Premier League

Wenger cleary reverting to a back 4 again? Either that or hes only taking the EPL seriously and willing to piss about in the EL
 
Mustafi?
Origi?

Both lads were good for their team last season, neither have been replaced?

Unless Liverpool see a windfall coming and know they can score a 40m beast to add to what Origi gave. Ahem.
 
Always liked Origi, and still think he has it in him to become a top striker.
 
I will be so thrilled when PSG crash the feck out of the CL.
Scenes when this man sends PSG into the Europa League

The ucl winner this season will be tainted in my opinion. Monaco, were on the cusp of greatness with a few key additions in central defence and the benefit of being a more settled team with chemistry and understanding. They've been torn apart though by oil clubs with limitless budgets. Now we'll never know if they were to be a golden generation of talent developed together whom Europe rightly feared. A potential winner has been shred down the middle.

Such a shame.

Monaco haven't been torn apart at all. Their policy is to buy and develop young talented player's and sell them on. They've done very well in this regard in the last couple of years.

Monaco are an oil club themselves, erm a potash club to be precise. Their problem isn't oil clubs poaching their players, they would have left for other clubs anyway, sometimes for less money. They will either have to keep a high turnover or become attractive enough to retain more quality players long term. They would have to increase their budget way beyond their current €160m if they want to give competitive wages to an increased number of experienced players.
 
Still thinking PSG is a notch or two below Real and Bayern in terms of defence, team cohesion and coach factor. It will be very very interesting to see who will coach them next year if they fall short in 2018.

WHo else than Pep guardiola.:D
 
I've never understood the hate for these oil rich clubs. It's like if you're not part of the status quo of elite clubs you're not allowed to break into it the only way every top club has been able to do so, by spending money. Get over it! I for one am happy that there's more competition I mean do we really want the cl being won by the same clubs every year??? I know I don't

I think that's the part everyone arguing about. If PSG can just go buy anyone with their limitless money without any consequences like many elite clubs (normally run and have limited budgets) have, who's to say your last point isn't gonna materialize albeit it'll be PSG.
 
Why do everyone just assumes there won't be consequences? For that matter, why does everyone assume there should be consequences?
