Wasn't there talk of the football club being back on the badge this year?
It is on the badge in the background oddly enough. Of all the flags to use, they put a one with "football club" in the background, even though its not on the shirt. And we have MUFC on our socks.
 
This sounds to me as if a Midfielder of that quality and a winger have been signed already or the deal is very far down the line.

Or that they have FFP restrictions limiting there spending to £50 million, of which they have already spent £15 million and they are seeking a center back + new backup goalkeeper.

But does that FFP restriction apply if they manage to sell of quite a bit of their deadwood?
Surely if they raised £80m or so from player sales, aren't they allowed to spend that on a new player? Or does the £50m restriction mean that's all they can spend regardless?
 
Why/how are Juve so skint then?

Not really just Juventus, it's Italian teams in general. It now only has 3 CL places, it's does not get much from TV money, especially compared to Spain + England worldwide, financial situation in Italy hit sponsorship as well, Juve have relatively low attendances as well, average 37k.

Yeah it's net but who do you think they will sell for decent money?
 

You'd swear their club is run by some rich billionaire kid who just buys the best young players for the sake of it without actually thinking and analyzing how they would function in the team and why they actually need them.
 
Stevie da Menace stealing pens and causing all sorts of ruckus!
 
On initlal reaction on looking at the shirt, I thought the # said 'damned'. Would have suited them nicely. That kit is ok, they've had a lot worse before. Like that yellow custard one.
 
Is there even one photo of Sturridge where he's not staring angrily into the camera?

Or alternatively, that the press just like to make things up because ti sells papers/and or gets spun around the internet. Specifically they always go on about "swap deals" when the reality is that the practically never happen.
