Their wage structure is bananas and it’s no wonder players want to leave.

 

I really don’t think Poch “wants to leave”. I’m not saying he’s staying forever but he’s had plenty of chances to get out and he stayed.

As far as the wage structure yeah it sucks. But Eriksen was offered 230/wk and said no. He’s not worth much more than that.

 

I think it’s more that it’s taken that long for them to offer him that much.

 

Yeah, if I was paid so much less than people who performed worse than me, and it took so long, it would be a point of principle to move.

 

I will say, Bayern are a damn good team. I feel like they are hated by a lot of people but I enjoy watching them play. They seem to be perfectly balanced this year and obviously loaded with talent. Lewandowski doesn’t get enough praise. I wouldn’t be upset if they won CL this season.

 

lol

 

Update:

 

Inter up already, only just got my stream up in time for the goal.

 

Mount has been great so far this season and Hudson Odoi is a MASSIVE talent. I think he’ll end up on a completely different level to Pulisic. Pulisic hasn’t really impressed in the limited time he’s had so far but it’s still early days. He seems quite one note so far.

he doesn’t seem to have the control or speed of thinking in tight spaces to make it as a #10 in the premier league yet either.

 

Why has Lampard had to make Chelsea more likable by playing English youth players? Where's Diego Costa and the like to make me hate them again?

 

That Chelsea goal, omg

 

Barca Twitter has been amazing. Suarez apparently started the match playing “the worst he’s ever played for us” and guess who scored twice.

 

Actually looks like a good England team, no complaints on my end.

 

Kompany has been removed as head coach of Anderlecht.

 

That didn’t last long

 

Odds of Kompany going back to City in January to give them depth?

 

Watching AZ pass through United's press is laughable. Like a warm knife through butter.

 

We’re horrendous lmao. I’ve turned this tragedy off.

 

AZ should have had 2 penalties.

 

0 shots on target.

 

Got a memory on Facebook that Udinese beat Liverpool at Anfield today back in 2012. Wild how much times have changed. I miss keeping up with Serie A.

 

Martinez looks unbelievable for an 18 year old.

 

Also, when we get Bellerin, Tierney and Holding back in our defence i fully expect us to look more solid at the back.

 

I torn between being excited and remembering it’s the Europa league. No doubt Bellerin and Tierney will improve our play, enormous players both going forward and in defense. Bellerin in particular will help Pepe

 

So apparently Sissoko will be playing RB tomorrow. Kinda sad it’s come to this. But at the same time I think he’ll be just fine there.

It’s also looking like Dier will return to the starting lineup. Hopefully we aren’t running the diamond. Give Winks a rest and put Dier and NDombele as the two CM in our better 4231 formation.

Kane
Son Dele Lamela
NDombele Dier
Rose Jan Toby Sissoko
