We don’t necessarily need a Kamara type DM for every game. We need players that can receive the ball in midfield, turn and either run into or pass into space. RB can definitely do that, as he’s shown this season.

They’re not even the same position. It’s like signing a centre back and saying “looks like we’re not signing a striker now”

I'm surprised Everton aren't in for him given their financial issues.

Apparently there have been discussions between us and Chelsea, no idea for who though. To be honest, the less we help Chelsea financially the better IMO.

Sportswash! - Let’s oil stare at Manchester City!
duke313 replied to ClaretMahoney's topic in Other Football
Yeah it'll be something like that, a point deduction that puts them mid table at worst and a season out of Europe. This is the reason why City will get a slap on the wrist at worse, the Abu Dhabi links to the UK government go above the PL. -

He's out of contract so won't be getting anything on 1st July. Unless he has loads of offers, I can't see him demanding a huge lot more than that as he would essentially be coming in as a backup option. Even if we doubled his wage to £60,000, that's not a lot for a PL team in the CL.

This is a good point, if we were linked to 2022-23 Leon Bailey, pretty much nobody here would want us to sign him. Emery seems to be able to get players to perform to their absolute peak, no reason why he couldn't do that with Barkley.

Sounds like there is interest in bringing him back. in fairness, Emery has tuned some of our players into top 4 quality, be interesting to see what he could do with Barkley.

I don't think they are going to get a severe penalty as some on here think. A hefty fine and at worst a transfer ban for a couple of windows. -
Even if those teams keep their players, we'll still be competitive in the CL. If we can beat City and Arsenal (twice), we can beat Girona and Stuttgart.

Most of those teams with exception of probably Leverkusen are going to be picked apart. Guirassy, Stuttgart's top scorer will almost certainly get a big move and Undav their next highest scorer is on loan from Brighton so i'd imagine he'll return. Girona might not even be allowed to play in CL with their links to City, and are already losing one of their main players, Savio who's signed for City. Bologna will get decimated, Thiago Motta is Juve bound and they'll lose their top players like Zirkzee. Leverkusen will get a stay of execution only to the fact Alonso is staying, if he had left they'd have been torn apart too.

I wasn’t saying that Glasner is as good as Emery, only that’s he’s had a similar impact to Palace as Emery had with us when he first came in. A good coach makes a huge difference. You’ve kind of proved my point, these players were performing pretty average before Glasner, and now he has them playing as good as they probably have their whole Careers.
-
They have a good manager though, we as a club should know how much of an impact that can have. But they will lose a few players, Mateta linked with PSG and Olise will probably move.
