Well I'd have thought kane was more up their street. They love a striker at the top of his career then watch him drop off a cliff. 

Mancs have been good with that lately as well which is great to see - Sanchez - Falco

As someone pointed out the other day their big signings aren't always  successful but at the time they sign them you think mother fuckers.

Any good, Stig?

He looked it but he was awful this season. Really poor apart from a couple of games. Be interesting to see though, he might well step up his level in a better league. If he goes like Moussa Dembele though he’s fucked. He looked an absolute beast but now he’s badly struggling on loan at Atletico Madrid 

 

 

If Chelsea get Haaland I reckon they win the league next season.

Amazing what going to the Premier League and playing decently does for your reputation. I remember when Cavani was an overrated fraud who missed big chances all the time and that was when he was in his prime.

So true.

Those naysayers were just fakers. Real footy fans like us always knew his true qualities. Ever since he was available for about £9m from Palermo on Footy Manager.

Echo linking us with Brandt - for about £17m. Not sure if this isn't just speculation and wishful thinking but it make sense. Versatile and can cover a few positions. 

The Echo could tell me it's Monday and I wouldn't believe them.

More fool you. It is Monday! Yeah not sure how real this is. Seems like a big stretch to link him.

 

I'm not sure Klopp goes back for players who fucked him off first time around.

If he has got a release clause of £65 million next Summer, then it's in Dortmunds interest to cash in now.

 

If Chelsea really want him, they will pay £100 million for him. 

Personally I can't see him leaving before he gets to play in front of the yellow wall, 1 more season and he's getting a better deal at his new club due to the clause . We'd be all over him at 65m but not in a bidding war.

I agree, I'd be surprised if he didn't at least play in front of a semi full Dortmund stadium before he felt ready to go. 

 

That said, money talks, and every club bar Chelsea, City and PSG are struggling.

At a time of the pandemic, the footballing authorities said they'd 'ease' financial fair play criteria in the Premier League due to the severe impact no crowds would have on the clubs.

 

Im seeing reports chelsea are reportedly ready to pay £170m for Haaland. Im also seeing reports that city are going to give guardiola upwards of £200m to spend and, if Kane does leave Spurs, the majority of the £200m will go on him no doubt with more then made available for a clutch of other players costing £50m+ to warm city's bench.

 

How the fuck could the football authorities allow 2 clubs with mega rich owners to take advantage of the financial relaxation? The idea is to help clubs during a period of financial hardship, not give 2 fucking well off cunts the chance to spend excessively while others are having to be aware of what money they have coming into the club.

 

It's a fucking joke the football authorities never see stuff like this coming. I can only come to the conclusion they dont fucking care because they're all getting slaps on the back for the PL being such a success and getting all the freebies that come with it.

 

Any day now, Im expecting city's mouthpiece (no that stuart brennan of the MEN), mansour's man who actually runs the club day to day to come out with yet more bullshit about 'sporting integrity.'

 

Meanwhile, the world football authorities do fuck all to halt the 'city group' buying up other clubs around the world no doubt because they think money is going into those clubs. Yeah, dont bother about that and them squewing the game in their respective leagues, it's all sporting integrity, innit?

 

Rant fucking over.
