  1. Memphis Depay (stays)

    I agree with this wholeheartedly. He’d be targeted from day 1. I’d love to see him in Serie A as well. Highly technically skilled player, with a decent bit of physicality in his game. He’d do really well there.
  2. Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

    We’re not going to keep an unhappy Cristiano at the club. If Chelsea are the only club in for him(which it seems) he going to them. Regardless of what happens with FDJ. Chelsea certainly aren’t messing around. They’re clearly going all in for the league this season.
  3. Paulo Dybala

    Eh, theres a reason that no one outside Italy is in for him. Good player when all is well and the attack is fluid, but not one to rely on when the games becomes more of grind as it can be against lower table Premier League opposition. Don’t think he’ll suit the league. ETH clearly has a type...
  4. Paul Pogba / turned down United offer of 300k as “nothing”

    Be Most logical response to the situation I’ve seen anywhere. Sums up my feelings exactly.
  5. Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

    It’s his first season, signing from a different league, having to adjust to a significant step up in quality. Not to mention the ongoing dysfunction that this season has been. Let’s be a bit patient wit the kid. Whatever happened to realistic expectations?
  6. Antony | Here we go! €100mill, contract until June 2027, option 'til 2028.

    What a time this was! Those Nike soccer ads didn't miss back in the day. "Joga Bonito" the "Secret Tournament", etc. I'd see one of those commercials and immediately be hyped to play. Still curious why those types of adverts are a thing of the past. It was wildly successful back then. I know...
  7. Martial agent looking for a new club for him

    Well, yeah. I was just making the point that he is a good player, being played out of his best position. He may be playing in his preferred position, but certainly not his best.
  8. Martial agent looking for a new club for him

    This. I’ve never really understood his conversion to striker. He can actually be very dangerous coming in off that left wing on his right foot. He’s not a true striker and never will be. He just doesn’t have the instinct or hunger to be an elite level striker. His main skill set is his close...
  9. Erling Haaland

    Is there a reason why you feel this may not happen? Genuinely curious. He’s just turned 23 in October and to this point has continued to improve. Assuming he continues this progression(big assumption to make, but not SO big since he’s only 23) I don’t see why he won’t make that leap within the...
  10. Phil Foden - What Is His Potential?

    And Sancho left why? Foden possibly wants to leave why? These players were/are at the facilities everyday. They see who gets minutes who gets certain treatment, etc. They can read the writing on the wall and see the minutes may not come as quick as they would like. The “reasons” young players...
  11. Fantasy Premier League 20/21

    Bamford & James, uh thank you! Auba + Willian, Martial + Fernandes, please be good to me!
  12. Jadon Sancho| Staying at Dortmund for now

    I believe the cousin's post is what we in the states call, “clout chasing”. Doing it for the likes and recognition without really being itk. At the same time, the cynic in me see’s this as a nicely timed and intelligent promotion of his new Nike line. The post would obviously blow up on Twitter...
