    Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Chelsea thread

    With Abramovic, he did make a large profit (even if he couldn't actually recieve any of it). But if he tried to sell in 2015 (example) I'd be surprised if any profit would have been made. The rapid financial growth of the PL and CL has increased clubs values more than anyone could have...

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Chelsea thread

    This whole idea that Chelsea is an investment is a laughable idea. Ken Bates ran them into the ground and Abramovic lost a shitload for the duration of his stint. They don't have the stadium, the potential to actually earn from it is small. They don't own the land, the chance of building...

    Match Threads Newcastle vs Spurs

    Royal, Hoijberg and Kulusevski/GLC on for Udogie, Bissouma and Werner. Maybe introduce Sarr soon after as well.

    Alejandro "Álex" Baena Rodríguez

    I think we're probably looking for both. Maddison and GLC are the only creative attacking midfielders we have. Presuming Gio goes we'll definitely need one. Especially considering Maddisons injury record. I always worry about signing from Spain though, the game is so different to the PL...

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Chelsea thread

    I am really torn on this, do we want a slow death, 10 points a season deduction and a gradual decline into oblivion or a devastating relegation that will put them our of business quickly. I never really understood schadenfreude, I mean how could you really revel in the suffering of others...

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Liverpool thread

    I know everything is judged on trophies, but considering the rebuild he's done (pretty much changed the whole midfield and front line in the last few years) then it's still a spectacular achievement. Not many managers could've done what he's done (if any), he leaves a legend whatever happens...

    Financial Fair Play (general thread)

    Thanks for sharing, Kieran Maguire is the only guy out there (as far as I know) breaking this down for us. Excellent work. We all knew but Chelsea and Newcastle are really up shit creek, people will say they'll just sell to Saudi, but I find it more unlikely, not just whether the Saudis will...

    Arsenal

    Surprised Saka is getting this abuse and Bellingham isn't, he was diving all over the place last night. Even one to try to win a penalty that was just as bad as Sakas. Also the tactic from all the real Madrid players who were pushing the city players everytime they released the ball. Guess...

    Spurs finances report 22/23 (swissramble writeup)

    I don't think anyone is that bothered about being the richest club in London, and although revenue wise we are, we still have a huge debt. Looking at the finances and what it says is we have massively increased our spending for the last couple of seasons alongside out new revenue. Which is...

    Spurs finances report 22/23 (swissramble writeup)

    This is mainly due to Chelsea and City having an excellent academy. If there was one area of the club that needs to improve its this. If everyone is fit then I don't see any homegrown (from the academy) players in the squad. Which is very poor. Currently Skipp (not playing) and Scarlett who...

    Harry Kane

    I know it's only in jest, but no chance of Kane coming back for next season, Bayern will never sell their star player, especially after a poor season from the other squad members (by their standards). Bayern look an absoloute mess at the moment, the defence is all over the place, the midfield...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    Perhaps wrong use of words, hoped maybe. And I agree and there are signs he's getting back to something near his best, but it'll take time. But yeah definitely not his fault and to be expected. Another positive that we will see him, hopefully, back to the player he was pre injury.

    This. If he knows both GLC and Hoijberg (who has done well off the bench this season) are not going to be here next season. Then why give them more game time? Ange has made it clear he wants players who are committed to the club. Regardless of how good he is, getting Maddison, Sarr...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    I really don't see how people can be disappointed with how the season has gone. 4th or 5th is a very good return based on our early season injury problems and how many young inexperienced players have adapted to the league. The worries at the start of the season were clear. We'd lost our...
