We should all be glad that they listen to their fans. That’s how they secured Ole, Ronaldo and Fergie as adviser. With any luck they’ll appoint Rio as some sort of director.

To say you gave in to fan pressure is ridiculous and makes your manager look weak when it comes to transfer decisions. Just address the negative reaction by saying the rumours you were looking to sign him weren't true or yeah you deemed the value of the transfer as not worth it.

I think Paredes is coming in after Rabiot is official and Rovella is on loan to Monza.

Checks out given the time-frame since that was when TRP started and exploded.

Parking the bus is a phrase that was initially coined during Jose Mourinho's first spell in charge of Chelsea between 2004 and 2007.

Frenkie should just stay and refuse to lower his wages. Roll up every day in a tricked out disco bus with a fog machine in it then moonwalk into the building wearing a suit made of €200 notes.

I guess Barca will end up having to pay him off to leave because they can't afford to forego the transfer fee and the opportunity to avoid paying the rest of his wages (minus whatever Frenkie's compensation is for the last 2 seasons). The soft deadline is their first match this weekend and the hard deadline is the registration deadline on September 1st. I can't imagine Barca is super thrilled to have their new signings unregistered for the first match, so maybe we'll see something happen later this week.

They just might not register Christensen. He pulled out of their last match with what Barcelona’s English team described as ‘cervical pain’

He started doing that as his Chelsea career wound down, most famously pulling out of the FA Cup final hours before.

He also kissed the badge at his Barca unveiling.

Mourinho aimed it as a jibe at Jaques Santini, before the frenchman broke completely and ran home, leaving Martin Jol in charge of Spurs. M's seventh ever match in the league back in 2004.
