Vesper

Jesus goal now given to Sterling, so he had a at trick, first FA Cup final HT in 66 years.

Sarri loves him, so I fully expect, if we can (I see that now we supposedly can buy him perm, despite the bans) we are going to buy him outright (maybe we will take £65, £70m plus Kovacic for Eden.

I would have went to Bernardo Silva, he was insane. First ever domestic treble in English football. And, counting the CS, it was a quadruple

what a demolition (and if not for two late wonder-saves by Gomes they would have had 8)

6 nil tied the record and they still have time to break it

5 nil one goal away from tying the record for biggest win ever in an FA cup final (1903)

If Agüero had scored 2 more goals in 2013–14 (he missed well over a 3rd of the season due to injuries), and one more n 2015-16, he would have 30 plus goals in 7 of the last eight seasons

Shitty have now scored 167 goals (and counting), most ever by a English team in a season.

I really have to LOL at people who say Jesus is a shit striker. I would KILL to have him here, and he only just turned 22. He has 21 goals all comps in only half a season's worth of minutes.

four nil running riot wow

De Bruyne will be fully fit next season too and you know (especially with possible bans coming) they are going to load up this summer.

I think still they probably are the best team in world football atm. Bans coming though, so how long that lasts is debatable.

I rate Niko Kovač, but Allegri is a better manager for Bayern. That all said, if Bayern played 38 league games, not just the 34, they would have probably topped 100 league goals and had 90 points. The 6 draws is what made it a tight race with Dortmund. They only lost 4 league games all year. They also have no players in the top 50 in value on T-markt (Thiago and Lewandowski are tied at £63m with 14 other players. so hard to say where those 2 are in reality). That will change when they officially buy Kai Havertz and Timo Werner.

SPOX claims Bayern Munich will fire Niko Kovac — Rummenigge, Bild call story a hoax SPOX claims Bayern plans to replace Kovac with Mark van Bommel, but they may have jumped the gun about Niko Kovac’s fate. https://www.bavarianfootballworks.com/2019/5/17/18629228/bayern-munich-fire-coach-niko-kovac-spox-karl-heinz-rummenigge-bild-hoax-van-bommel-psv The German internet publication SPOX claims in an exclusive article that Bayern Munich has already decided to fire head coach Niko Kovac at the end of the season, even if he succeeds in winning a domestic double by clinching the Bundesliga championship against Eintracht Frankfurtand defeating RB Leipzig for the DFB-Pokal. SPOX alleges that Bayern hope to replace Kovac with former player Mark van Bommel (42), who currently coachs PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie. Under van Bommel, Eindhoven has finished second, a mere three points (83) beyond youthful world-beaters Ajax Amsterdam (86) and a whopping 18 ahead of third (Feyenoord — 65). The reasons for Kovac’s theoretical firing are familiar. SPOX claims that Kovac “now has a majority of the locker room against him.” Even Joshua Kimmich, they state, “allegedly has also recently expressed skepticism internally,” although he has long backed Kovac publicly. The players supposedly feel that Kovac’s training sessions are too monotonous and lack “tactical finesse.” Unnamed “insiders” told SPOX that the ongoing discussions about replacing Kovac in the decisive phase of the season are “behavior detrimental to the club.” Although “Bayern DNA” dictates subordinating everything to success, the source claims, “At the moment, the opposite is the case. The coach is being weakened since a few weeks ago. In the present situation, you actually should have to back him.” Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Bild deny the claims Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, meanwhile, has denied the story completely. The chairman told Bild, “That is a total canard.” Bild adds, however, that according to their own information, the club has “not yet” made a decision. They state, That is rather less than a complete denial. SPOX’s editor-in-chief, Martin Volkmar, told Bild, “We stand by our story.” snip

DO IT

It is bloody madness to pay almost £30m (fee plus salary) for Higuain for one year and then not even own him outright so zero to be made selling him on. £44.4m for 18 months of shit play!!!!!!!! Insanity rules yet again if we do this shit.

Kai Havertz scored today, he is now the first teenage MF'er ever in a top 10 European league to score 20 goals in a season.

Chelsea WILL be able to sign Real Madrid loanee Mateo Kovacic despite FIFA-imposed transfer ban https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7040611/Chelsea-able-sign-Matteo-Kovacic-Gonzalo-Higuain-despite-FIFA-imposed-transfer-ban.html Chelsea begin talks with Kovacic over a permanent deal for next season https://www.legit.ng/1238972-chelsea-kovacic.html

Benzema is washed up, and he was not ZZ's pet, he was/is Florentino Pérez's. Diaz is pure shit, massive flop since they brought him back, and Rodrygo will play winger. Jovic made a brilliant decision.

Sicknote.

The clubs is fucking CLUELESS. This official announcement proves it!!! Boston trip proves to be a fantastic success Three goals, two scored by Ross Barkley and one by Olivier Giroud, plus over $4 million dollars raised for a range of organisations are the headline figures from our Wednesday night game in the United States.

Marina will never cede power, and Roman backs her to the bitter end why do you think we have no DoF for what will soon (in around 5 and half months) be two years? no one wants it as it is currently constituted we are a fucking joke

10 players Barcelona will sell to fund Antoine Griezmann and Matthijs de Ligt transfers Barcelona are prepared to spend £250million on transfers this summer, but with their own financial issues, they must sell a number of stars Barcelona are facing a huge summer overhaul as club chiefs scramble to raise cash to pay for the club’s big-money transfer deals. Ajax midfielder Frenkie de Jong is already due to arrive, in a £67million transfer, and the Spanish champions are also seeking to add his Dutch teammate Matthijs de Ligt in a £65million deal - although there are continuing complications with that switch. Antoine Griezmann’s announcement this week that he will leave Atletico Madrid on July 1 by paying his £105million release clause looks due to take him to Camp Nou, 12 months after the World Cup winner upset Barca chiefs with ‘La Decision’, rejecting a move to stay in the Spanish capital. However, now he appears set on linking up with Lionel Messi in Catalunya. But Barca have a major problem in splashing out over £250million this summer; the club have little in the way of funds to pay, with their intermediary accounts for the first half of the season overdue. Certainly, deals with Ajax, with whom they have a strong relationship, can be negotiated and paid over a period of time - potentially three or four years. But Griezmann’s buyout needs to be deposited with LFP chiefs up front to free him from his deal at Atletico. Now, 12 months on from opening up a £120million credit line with a New York-based lender, and with salary payments - the biggest in world football - to be paid to players at the end of June, they are in desperate need of funds to pay for everything. As such, decisions have been made to part with 10 players this summer, in a bid to raise over £200million. Chief among them is Philippe Coutinho, who has largely disappointed since his club record move from Liverpool 17 months ago. The Brazilian, who earns £12million-per-year after tax, remains the club’s biggest saleable asset and they want at least £90million. De Ligt’s arrival means France's World Cup-winning defender Samuel Umtiti will be allowed to leave. The left-sided centre-back suffered an injury hit 2018-19 and couldn’t oust Clement Lenglet from the starting XI when back fit; with doubts over his knee injury still, Barca are ready to sell for £50million - despite him having no intention of leaving. Juventus and Manchester United are among the clubs who have been keeping tabs on the situation of a player who, fully fit and on form, is one of the world’s best defenders. Similar to Umititi, Ivan Rakitic insists he is staying put, but despite being a key man for Ernesto Valverde, the Croatian is likely to be sold. The wrong side of 30, Inter Milan are keen to take him to Italy, with Barca keen on a fee in excess of £45million. Others on the chopping block, according to Marca, include winger Malcom, Jasper Cillessen, Everton loanee Andre Gomes, Denis Suarez - who has struggled for fitness and minutes on loan at Arsenal - Rafinha and, perhaps surprisingly, the Portuguese right-back Nelson Semedo. Interestingly, the club will spend €4million to bring back Eibar’s Marc Cucurella, to sell him on for €10million. However, big-money players, on big wages, with clubs knowing that Barca are desperate for cash, will not be easy to sell. It promises to be a long summer. snip I would LOVE to grab Umtiti (if his knee is sound he is a top 10 in world CB) and Semedo (I think they are mad to sell him, he is a top ten RB) Even Malcom might be woth a shot fucking bans, grrrrrrrrrrrr
