Is there no other player in the World that could do as well as De Jong for United in CDM or a real prospect that's worth targeting?

I find that hard to believe.
We're all still waiting for these scouts to unearth a gem, old ones couldn't do it, New ones don't seem to have any targets. Malacia is the closest thing.

@Berbaclass we will never forget you. How you stormed those beaches, all posts blazing chucking your positive grenades. May we always have your spirit in our hearts.

a moment of silence please
Please bow your heads for the Café Prayer:

Our Muppet,
Who art in heaven,
@Berbaclass be thy name;
Thy season come;
Thy signings be done;
On Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our muppetry.
And forgive In-The-Knows for their posts,
As we forgive Tier 1s who trespass against us.
And lead us not into the Neves thread;
But deliver us our midfield.
For thine is the kingdom,
The power and the glory,
For ever and ever.
Amen.

When they do eventually go bankrupt, the behind the scenes documentary of this transfer season will be a must see.

Edit: Barca have already sold 50% of the rights to Barcruptcy after reading this.
I think with fan attending matches now they'll be fine with those revenues.

If one wants to marry a girl, do you really think it’s enough to receive her parents’ blessing?:)
They have done their part though. Feels like it's up to ETH and agents to woo him. Just feels an easy out to point fingers at them.

Wasn’t it we agreed a fee, Kenyon agreed to go to Chelsea so purposefully fecked it up? We agreed a fee, Ronaldinho said to Kleberson see you in Manchester and then Kenyon made a lower bid that the amount we agreed.
It honestly stunted my emotional growth as I watched him win the Balon Dor that very next season
It was both.

We had it, Kenyon lowballed PSG at the death and that gave Laporta the opening.

Kenyon screwed us there and also with Robben, whom we could have signed before he went over to Chelsea and signed him for them. Essien too.

It was only the Cristiano transfer he couldn't scupper. With hindsight, you can tell SAF was already making noises and suspecting something was off. He really pushed to get that over the line and Kenyon, who had everything agreed at Chelsea already, probably thought it was a record fee for yet another random whizzkid.

I was devastated about Ronaldinho as well as I had tracked him since Gremio, but all in all it was for the better. We were in transition and wouldn't have got the best out of Ronaldinho's peak, Chelsea would have likely dominated those years anyway. Instead, we got Cristiano, whose trajectory matched our cycle much better so we hit a lovely peak form in 2007-2009 when Goofy was already ambling around with a pot belly.

I dont know if its the new generation or something, but I've noticed that Chelsea fans are even less coherent than Arsenal fans on twitter these days.

Goodbye, @Berbaclass
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled

They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
And it seems to me you lived your life

Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would've liked to know you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
muppet king created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh, the doomers still hounded you

All the papers had to say
Was that @Berbaclass was found in the nude
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in

And I would've liked to know you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Goodbye, @Berbaclass
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
Goodbye, @Berbaclass

From the young man in the twenty-second row
Who sees you as something more than cho-cho train
More than just our Muppet King
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to

When the rain set in
And I would've liked to know you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

The Berbaclass stuff is only funny if he actually left. He’s still here. Stop.

Declan Rice. 150m please.

I am surprised at the news of Chelsea going for FDJ. I thought they'd be nailed on to get Rice next summer. I don't see Rice and FDJ being a good combo. Both play best in the same position. Neither of them are that effective when playing further forward.

Does anyone else hear a noise? It's like a wet farting sound but with less belief in the Muppet cause.
