  1. He's here because of Mino Raiola, who took advantage of Brendan and Ayre's naivety.
  2. It's not your job to know. It is the job of the manager and scouts at the club.
  3. It was more what was not said. He usually loves to talk. He was as downbeat as they come, irritated, one word, one sentence answers. Completely dodged question on whether he'd have money to spend in January. Looked like he'd just come fresh out of a bollocking from America.
  4. Judging by today's press conference, Rodgers knows he's a dead man walking. He won't be given much, if any, money to spend in January. Next summer he's gone.
  5. Not saying that at all. What I am saying is you need achievements to inspire faith. Or Perhaps you would like Garry Monk appointing when Rodgers goes? Mancs made a terrible start under Van Gaal and still aren't playing well. But they can keep the faith for a little longer with one look at his CV. On the strike force, Suarez leaving in July obviously meant he needed to wait until the last minute to buy the Italian striker, as no one else was available.
  6. Must remember to put all the times I nearly did something on my CV.
  7. If Blanc had really wanted to keep him, all he'd have had to do was pick him ahead of Alex.
  8. Probably because he doesn't believe we will be in the CL any time soon. But if you think Arsenal will be his final destination if they don't start to challenge for trophies, you're deluded. They'll be a stepping stone. Anyway, as I said, winning is a habit. "Winning the League Cup in 2001 gave us so much confidence for the rest of the season. It was probably the most difficult final we had. "Trophies exhilarate a team. Not only did we win two more finals, but we went on a long unbeaten run in the league and got into a play-off for the Champions League." Gerard Houllier.
  9. Winning is a habit. Not that you'd know anything about that.
  10. No, he probably thought we'd accept £40m, otherwise why is there a clause talking about entering into good faith negotiations for £40m in his contract?
  11. Fined half a million, asked to pay the £20m fee - You really are a tool with zero idea aren't you.
  12. I spotted that too. Question is, why is a public service broadcaster acting like a tabloid? And it's not just Suarez that has had their tabloid treatment.
  13. And we're all paying for their sensationalist tripe with our license fee.
  14. There's really not a lot of difference between £40m and £50m. If Arsenal have bid £40m, it's not too much of a stretch for them to pay £50m. They will make about £7m from selling Gervinho to Roma, which can be thrown in.
  15. https://twitter.com/chris_haire1986/status/292004251142615040/photo/1
  16. FSG got £50M from selling Torres and without having to pay the £30M or so G&H loans every year, that money that is made in profit should be available. So the idea that they sunk £100M into players is wrong.
  17. Four of those would have applied to Woy. Just saying.... (6)
  18. I'm not convinced our fan base would. Their PR is quick off the mark and too many are willing to swallow it. As long as they have us knocking around in the top eight, and keep spouting that we're building, then I think they will have a good four or five years.
  19. Milan ruined football in the 1990s bankrolled by Berlusconi? Real Madrid ruined football buying those Galacticos and getting sub from the Madrid council? You act like rich owners splashing their own cash was invented by Abramovich. Only thing that happened was inflation
  20. G&H took the money the club made to pay off the debt incurred by the takeover. That's debt has gone. And FSG are letting the club spend that money.
