people loving love that website. I've never read any of their stuff myself but smart hockey and baseball folk all all about it. also Bale is going to be next to impossible to move unless RM eats about half of his wages. the good news is that his fee will be pretty minimal.

wooger posted:Are there really any *big name* football writers? they aren't going bust anytime soon, because they started out catering to a relatively under-served, and heavily loyal, market in NA (ice hockey fans). every hockey person I know, myself included, subscribes to them and likes it. plus they run so many deals you never pay full price.

advanced statsman posted:i wouldn't pay $50 a year to get poo poo takes on sports when I can just check these dead gay forums It's got a lot of good stuff and good writers on the MLB side, from my view. I find it worthwhile. I wonder about their long term business model, they're focused on growth right now and they're spending a lot of cash to grow their audience, but until the private equity guys demand a payout they should be OK. Who knows when that will be.

AC Milan is apparently sniffing around Lovren. https://twitter.com/_pauljoyce/status/1138762957851156480

Really weird if de Ligt goes to PSG. Their league is a joke, and PSG are perennial losers in all competitions that matter. Surely they're not paying THAT much more than Barca would, so why go to what is clearly a much lesser club? Also I guess Lukaku is going to Inter, or at least really wants to. Lukaku posted:It's good to see Conte joined Inter, for me he is the best manager in the world. I've already taken a decision about the future but I can't reveal it because I have a contract with Manchester United and because I respect the club. My agent will speak with them. I've already taken my decision. The club need to decide but my agent wants the best for me, I am sure it'll be an agitated summer.

Inter need to sell Icardi before getting Lukaku; Conte wants him as well. It's pretty much down to that.Diva Cupcake posted:AC Milan is apparently sniffing around Lovren. Wouldn't be mad about this if his wages weren't too absurd, seems a good deal in this market even. I don't know if we're able to hang on to Musacchio but Zapata is definitely gone and Caldara is still unknown so we'll need another CB.

Mostly because Paul Joyce doesn't put out poo poo rumors or speculation. There's likely smoke even if he can't explicitly say it.

I would be extremely happy to sell Lovren. Yes, he's good as a 4th CB, but he is a complete shitstick in big games.

Lovren for £25m would be a good deal. He's the only CB I'd want to see leave, but I think we'd need to bring someone in to replace him. Honestly, though I don't think it would happen, I'd love for us to get Vertonghen from Spurs. He'd provide cover at full back and center back, and would weaken one of our rivals. edit: also Lovren has also literally never played 7 consecutive games in his career, which is mental.

You don’t think the team who just went to the CL wants to sell their best defender to the other team that went to the final? Who could have guessed that

Supposed itk claiming Sessegnon twins to Spurs are nearly done, and that Ndombele has passed his medical and should be wrapped up soon as well. I'll be thrilled with Ndombele, but I'm not convinced by Sessegnon yet. What's the success rate of young players who lit up the championship moving to big PL teams?

Maddison and Alli both turned out pretty good. Nick Powell didn't.

I'm going to be a pedant and point out Nick Powell came from Crewe who were a League 2 side at the time and Alli was from MK Dons who were League 1. Also Maddison is better than pretty good but other than that, spot on.
