And Barcelona is probably a top 5 city to live in whilst insanely loaded.

Shrapnig posted:Liverpool's youth setup is dogshit, I wouldn't trust any player coming out of it. We have a few decent players. TAA is pretty good, Curtis Jones is good, KiJana Hoever is promising. Apart from that though, yeah, bit crap

Shrapnig posted:Ah yes, the latter two who I've definitely heard of. I'm agreeing with you, one massive success, two vaguely promising types and lots of fleecing Bournemouth is not a good youth setup. I'll be sad if Brewster is washed, but that many knee injuries so young is really hard to power through

It's possible that they consider CL qualification a lost cause, so why chuck good money after bad?

He was supposed to be amazing, but could never get a work permit and stagnated due to playing in basically every league ever created

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51142447 Someone is paying cash money for Ashley Young in tyool 2020. I take back everything I have ever said about Ed Woodward.

I've seen a few articles over the past six months saying how Odegaard has basically reconstituted himself as a potentially great footballer, given that he's still only 21. Moving to Madrid clearly hosed him up a bit, but any 16-18 prospect is going to have plateaus, and he seems to have come out of his.

sticksy posted:Long but interesting article in The Athletic today about how players handle transfers, whether agitating for move, having an honest discussion with a manager about your career or being beholden to the ego of a billionaire owner. I can c&p the whole thing or share a PDF if anyone wants to read it but this part in particular made me I'd read that if you're offering please

The alternative of paying sporting everything they were asking for a month later is equally hilarious

In small fairness to him, that was probably true twenty years ago in the PL, and ten years ago in the Championship. And oddly I wouldn't on first thought have expected the various vanity/sportswashing owners like Leicester, City and Chelsea to be particularly shrewd, but the clearly are

He truly is the gift that keeps on giving. This can only get better if Fernandes turns up two stone overweight with a twenty a day habit.

He was actually good at one point. Maybe not "as good as Man U think they are" good, but still pretty good.
