Norwich on Thursday and then Newcastle in the weekend. We could start to get a gap on 4th if we are as focused as today and Lukaku stays on the bench.

Three very important points considering all that is going on. Well done staying focused.

Lukaku needs a new home with a re-homing fee.

Lol, I was out hooking up my boat and came in to 3-0. Nice problem to have.

Ugggh avoided a gift there

Burnley’s press is no joke.

I think Saul and James wingbacks

If all parties are in agreement on terms and the owners is easily vetted, the sale can be approved in ten days. That is the fastest it has happened. If Roman is truly trying to do this with the fear of sanctions happening, it can be very fast. If he is doing this as a way to slow down being sanctioned, it could drag out for a long time.

I don't know about Wyss, but at least Boehly has an interest. He has attempted to buy the Sparks (women's professional team) and Chelsea. I hope they can convince Maria to stay for at least the transition.

Im not sold he will be great for the club. The part that is appealing about him is he is willing to spend big to win.

True but they owed the Buc's fans that as they owned the Bucs for 20 years and kept them the doormat of the league and didn't care as long as they were selling enough t-shirts. Glazers are horrible owners.

The Glazers have spent more than any other owners in the PL in the past 5 years?

I don't know that Boehly will be great for the club as the structure of the deal will probably look similar to what the Glazers did to buy Man U.

He is definitely a share holder and part of the group. I don't know much about him. The one I would be paying attention to is Todd Boehly. He will spend his own money beyond his share of the team to make sure a top player is bought. He loves making huge player buys and setting the team up for winning. For years now other baseball teams have been throwing a fit saying that he is just trying to buy championships. He is all about winning and wanting the biggest team in the league.

Another article about how after paying a staggering fee for the Dodgers Todd Boehly's group kept spending massive amounts of money to make sure the Dodgers were going to compete for titles, renovating Dodger's stadium and infrastructure in the club. https://www.latimes.com/sports/la-xpm-2012-dec-15-la-sp-dodgers-guggenheim-20121216-story.html

If you want to get an idea of who Todd Boehly is and how he might operate, he is pretty open about why he buys sports teams in this interview.

Wyss is not the big player in the group, he just went to Todd Boehly because Todd already offered 3B a couple of years ago to Roman and it was turned down.

I think Todd being in a group will be good. He loves buying top players and will spend his own money.

I don't see anything suggesting it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mansour_Group?scrlybrkr=d2712dd5

I wonder how long until Roman buys a club in Portugal and Marina is running it?

After all the chaos today, live to fight another day!

Werner to Lukaku!!!
