Terrible deal if true from Osimhen. Absolutely NO need to sign an extension with that release clause. End of summer he could have moved for like €80M. Then pocket the €50M delta as more salary. He had all the cards on the negotiation table since his old contract was up in Summer 2025.

We need to advise our boys better man.
I don’t mind it, I think it sets a fixed price which is important when dealing with ADL, it’s not exorbitant and all this does is put an end to a January move (which we don’t really want with AFCON and was gonna be difficult to pull off even without), he’s gone in the summer.

But all the EPL teams in CL, Europa and Europa Conference topped their groups except for Man U and Newcastle :skip:


Let's be honest we all knew Man U were going to struggle. They do this mad scramble for top 4 every year only to be knocked out at the Group Stage/R16.
fukking up the EPL coefficient :martin:

They need to be banned

Do you believe anyone besides Man City has a chance in the CL?

Champions League Heritage.

I don't know about that..

Man City "couldn't get over the hump" but it was clear as day they would eventually win one, all that "history isn't on their side" shyt went out the window quick and now they are among the favorites again. What heritage do the other clubs have right now to where we are supposed to think they have a chance? I guess we are talking about Arsenal only because Liverpool is in the Europa, they ain't even in the CL this campaign. Chelsea is one of the more recent winners and they are a dog shyt team overall.

Arsenal is the only team other than Man City left in it. Meanwhile, there's 3 Italian teams. There's 4! Spanish clubs. There's even 3 German clubs.

They've been the favourites every year for the last 10 odd years
It means nothing and it is even harder to retain the CL than it is to win it
Only 1 club has been able to do it since they changed it all in like 92
And that club is Real Madrid which brings you back to that good old phrase Champions League Heritage what Kunty said in previous post
