Actually they have a history of sex abuse and aiding sex abuse.

Arsenal are apparently putting out feelers about a potential replacement for Wengy. I guess they have to, considering that Wengy hasn't signed a new contract yet. The guy who manages Red Bull Leipzig said that he has been contacted about the position.

I don't know wtf is serious or trolling anymore. Mkhitaryan is obviously a better player than Depay/Nani/Bebe and I didn't say he was AS GOOD AS Ronaldo, but it's been a while since I've seen a United player constantly trying to make things happen and trying cheeky flicks and tricks and them leading to chances.

Everyone loves a cheeky flick and a trick leading them to chances

Chelsea are going to win the league again aren't they? Admittedly it will be more bearable this time given Mourinho is no longer there. Still means another medal for that twat Terry though even if he doesn't really play.

That half season Taarabt spent at Milan was hilarious. He was selfish as hell but all of his tricks and selfish dribbles and shots worked out. Then he went to Benfica and got banished to the reserves, lol.

Tutumlu was definitely getting paid in the crooked agent sense but it wasn't really that much money relative to many crooked agents and how many players we signed through him (and yeah, half of them were poo poo). Some rules may have been broken, possibly, but it's not as if the legal agent payments system makes anyone look good. Clubs report every November how much money they've pissed away on agents and the Big Clubs are spending £10m plus.

Laudrup himself doesn't have a problem with this, or things like clubs being paid to try harder in meaningless games by other clubs to whom the game might matter more. Players didn't need to train their bollocks off every day, and once you'd won a cup and weren't going down you could relax. He had a good attitude to life imo.

Huw didn't like how business was being done, so bought Marvin Emnes, waited till we had a dip in form so he could fire Laudrup by email, gave himself bonuses easily equivalent to what Tutumlu got while doing a worse job (and still paying ~£3m a year to agents), and now the poo poo squad he's built is getting relegated.
