I don't think it will as easy for clubs to pick off our players now, if Eriksen leaves I don't think all our fans will be that bothered and I think Toby is staying. Kane won't go anywhere either but we need to keep hold of Poch.

Poch aint going nowhere now. Not with Levy getting the players he asked for.
Now Eriksen on the other hand....
Atleti's history with forward signings (El Bandito, El Tigre, Kun, and Griezz) is the only reason i have some faith in the choice to spend 120 mill on Felix.
Seeing Robben retired makes me sad for coming FIFA years, he's been one of my go'to guys for years now in the game.
N'dombele and Lo Celso would give Spurs a monster midfield. Still unreal Betis bought Celso for 22 mill or some shit from PSG.
Hope Zaha to Arsenal happens and that Pool signs some wing/midfield depth. United is like warching paint dry with their transfer negotiations.
Saw that Barca was lookin at Laotaro Martinez as a Suarez replacement over time.
More than anything though i really wanna see Mbappe moved the fuck on from PSG as that shitheap of a team aint going anywhere fast , Neymar can fucking rot away there though but Mbappe to a prem team would be the dream as i think Lagliga is pretty fucking terrible to watch for the most part because of the enormous disparity between 3-4 teams compared to the rest. Because of the tv-deal structure in the UK even smaller outfits have quite deep pockets there in the prem.

The idea of Dyche and Mbappe working together is kinda funny.
The fastest recorded player is just down the M65 in Blackburn. Might be easier.
Shame he's a centre half.
Even by its own standards it's a ridiculously open league this year.
Yeah. Wonder If leeds will finally get their act together this time lol.
Prem isn't that much better. Barça has for more competition from teams they were playing last season than Man City did.
Some teams didn't even bother to try and attack City, not even the one up top for the long ball. Just 11 men in their box for 90 mins and some of the most boring football I have ever watched in my life.
At least when teams play Barça they actually try to play them and it's not damage limitation.
Man I'm so glad Liverpool don't got any players with Raiola as their agent.
Agreed, from the very little news you ever hear about how we approach and negotiate with agents, we're either been shrewd to a masterful degree, or extremely good at rubbing them up the right way. That and we pay up in the end. Can't see any kind of charm working for pricks like Raiola.
Some interesting stuff from Fabinho from a Brazilian podcast

He's an agent. A very good one. You don't get to be good and not be a prick in that business.
Ok but there are a ton of pricks in football, i just don't get how whenever Raiola is involved in a controversial deal it's always his fault and not the player, it's not like he'll put a gun on Pogba's head and force him to join Madrid.
He's a powerful agent with loads of great players connected to him that makes deals with every top club, he may be a prick in real life but that doesn't mean that he's not good at his job.
Literally, nobody said he wasn't good at his job.
He's still a prick.
There's an alternate version the did the rounds wherein it was Mané rather than Klopp that was quoted over the "Now we are three", but regardless, either seem credible given the level of composure we were still carrying after losing 3-0. Like that Lijnders's is getting a lot more praise, especially after more has come out over why Buvac left. No ill will there, but Pep has done wonders since pre-season last year. I remember there were Reds in here, myself included, that saw us not Gengenpress like we had done when Buvac was here (during that mad spell of games with PSG, Napoli, Chelsea twice, Spurs etc) that there was worry Klopp had lost 'the brains' of the operation. But, Buvac leaves, we go more conservative with our gameplay, and we've a European cup and a well trained squad to show for it.
No, he'll put the gun to Woodward's head.
If he really is as much as a prick as people said he is it's kinda of amazing how so many players talks fondly of him.
Because he helps make them money. Not a hard concept to grasp.
Are you Raiola's Era account or something?
No, i just don't understand how he's always painted as the villain in every situation, i bet United's fans weren't that angry with him 3 years ago when pogba joined them over Real or Barca?
Also, he's one of the few figures in italian football that openly talks against the federation when it comes to racism and other problems, that alone is enough for me to like him.
99% of agents are dickheads. You also can't really like a person you have never met and don't know.
Anyone else bored with seemingly every elite player wanting to Join Real or Barca if it's at all possible? It's been going on for 20 years now. Not sure English clubs can ever compete with them.
Don't get me wrong, he's definitely a colourful character to say the least, i just don't think he's the ultimate prick in football like a lot of people think he is, i'm sure there are way worse people and agents in that world.
English clubs just have to dominate the CL the next several years to sway the elites. :P
England has never competed against them, or Juve, or any of the others though. Going back to when we were the biggest club over here, we still bled a lot of talent to mainland Europe, and in most cases, with only passing regard. It's to be believed we had with a few stars a very open idea of how what they did for Liverpool could open the doors for them later in Spain or Italy or Germany or wherever they sought - as long as they helped us win something. After that, we can cash in on you, and go find the next big thing.
United knew the drill too, albeit a bit more begrudgingly. "You can fuck off there, once we're in a comfortable position." Was Ferguson's mentality, and it worked well for him overall, if you think the kind of talent that left for Madrid, and what he achieved with them beforehand.
Moving players only becomes a problem when you aren't winning stuff, therefore less likely to attract newer ones. Look at City, for instance. A lot of their squad aren't mercenaries (at least, they don't come across as such), yet apart from Sane you don't hear of any of them even grunting towards Spain, because they're in a position where they win stuff. Odds are, over the next couple of seasons they will start to disperse, only after City have guaranteed they've got newer players lined up - and as much as it fucking hurts to admit, they've got that down to an exact science.
Also, as an aside, Barca's level of success is relatively shorter than Madrid's, and what will be fascinating to see is how quickly they land on their feet once Messi retires. They aren't a one-man team, and they did have success prior to him, but my God that club is so synonymous with him that it could really set them back while they find their new identity, with a lot stronger domestic and European competition than they had a couple of decades ago.
Man Utd appointing Moyes really did bring a curse onto the club.
I can not believe that clown Woodward is still there lol

Messi retires, Barca will probably put a monstrous bid in for Mbappe. I know not same position...but i could totally see it.
I wouldnt be so sure. I could see Wolves and Everton really pushing 6th this year.
Leicester and West Ham are dangerously close too. My predictions for this year; 1st City, 2nd us (unless Brewster and the likes hit the ground running to prove we can have a B-team that wins, then I don't see how we go further than we did last season, all the while City strengthened), 3rd Spurs (and it will be dangerously close this time). Then the gap between us three and fourth, which in my opinion is up for grabs by 7 clubs. That's where the drama is going to be this season.
Yeah i could totally see this honestly. I think this year could be one of the most interesting to watch in quite a while.(Hoping so anyway)
Bayern to put 2 GK sups
There might be another thread of people who think they know football but don't say cunt nearly enough to actually know football.
Welcome, friend.
Fantasy league? yes probably.
