Pizy 18,907 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 So after like 5 seasons straight of being linked with a move away to every big club under the sun, Milinkovic-Savic finally leaves Lazio. To go to Saudi to never be seen or heard from again. It’s going to take some real getting used to seeing under 30nplayers in their prime going to that league. xPetrCechx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are we doing? We had paramount for big money the PL said conflict we also had the stake.com and that was also reported for big money and the fans said no to gambling on the shirt.

Weird it went down so quietly and easy. Can't advertise no bank, beer, luxury watches, it services as well because of potential conflict? Yeah, lets all promote bookies and paydays loans, because that's pretty much what's left, is, say, legal and have funds. Meanwhile shady oil money good.

Being successful generates hate by definition in competitive sports, because only one wins each comp, so we always have to beat someone or someones to win anything. on the other hand, there is the dual standards as you point out. I think it may be specific to Russia money (Chelsky and whatnot), so that might change with what so looks like a much dumber money being the club. 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point keeping folk who aren’t interested in being here, regardless of what they will become. I mean thats been the message from the club this summer looking at how we’ve went around our business in terms of offloading players who aren’t interested in being here. The initial signs from his side, although may be misconstrued, don’t look promising at all. I mean if he really wants to play for Brighton ahead of us that is worrying - more so than anything else. Hopefully the way these rumours and signs etc look changes over the next week or 2 as he has a huge chance of being a nailed on regular from day 1 (even more so with BB injured). Although he still has to earn his slot in the same way like James did, like Mase did, like Fikayo did, like Tammy did etc competing with players in certain positions/coming out of the team for others as and when also if form dictates it. Can’t just expect it to be given which if this is something he is expecting, he needs to check himself a bit. The ethos and approach of the club and Poch has to be building around players who actually want to be here though and guys who are fully committed - particularly after the moans and groans of players downing tools last year. This is exactly how I feel. There's no point in delaying the inevitable if a serious offer does come our way.

Paramount + (CBS) provides Champions League and Europa League Games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,907 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 £25m for Lukaku when you’re receiving 50-60m for your keeper is pretty laughable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a relation with his current wages and his valuation: and it's off right now. His wages are (way) too high for the player he is, which lowers his fee.

Then we wash our hands of him forever. robsblubot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gundalf 806 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 If Inter turns this 30m + bonuses from € to £ we should accept. This guy is our highest earner lol, let that sink in. robsblubot and Hamilton 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
