It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

[Keeper!]

We get it. You don't think he's affordable, but many do and maybe that includes the club

If he is and we also get the other players that we need badly I will be surprised but delighted.

i am running naked along the seafront if we sign messi,photos and dvds available for 1p each

That’s me in the no camp then....

 

[mosssideblue]

I would hope not, but I fail to see how we can do both, without getting back into trouble with uEFA

And there in lies your problem. Because you cannot see how we can achieve this equates to it cannot be done. Let those who manage the pursstrings do the worrying, much less stressful.

We would do what PSG did for Neymar.

, FFP accounting allows for transfer fees to be paid over the length of the player’s contract (just as in the actual deal, payments will be structured over time). So that gives you a bit of wriggle room

, Uefa has also allowed owners to spend an additional €30m of their own money over a rolling three‑year period. Providing there is a business plan that meets with Uefa’s approval, an owner can exceed the total.

, Neymar may have already agreed to become an ambassador for Qatar’s World Cup and that the fee for this might be around £200m. In that case Neymar would be able to turn up at the offices of La Liga and buy out his own release clause.

I just don't go with all the shirt sales/ sponsorship bollocks pays for big player, it's a lie.

I live in Asia, once upon a time every kid had a premier league shirt on, all dodgy, all copies, now they don't. Why? The Premier league and Nike, Adidas and Puma sent out people searching for the sweatshops, putting pressure on local governments to stop it. It still goes on, but at a far lower scale.

The real shirts are in the shops and guess what, no kid/ adult buys them, too expensive!

You have literally been presented with a real life parallel from 2018 with Juventus/Ronaldo based off their publicly declared commercial revenue, and publicly disclosed (because they're a listed company) renegotiations of sponsorship agreements that proves the sponsorship thing is not bollocks.

That's Koulibaly.

The one a certain poster was swearing blind that we wouldn't sign.

 

[TheThirdDeano]

Yeah that makes sense mate! Wonder if there is something special in the pipeline... we can dream!

 

[Stockport Blues]

That's Koulibaly.

Some plans change, don’t think they would be swearing blind anymore...

@Keeper! is Khaldoon. I fuckin knew it, trying to throw us off the scent with all this we can't get Messi bollocks.
Oh you!

 

[sir baconface]

At 36 mate, your still a kid in my eyes

Mine too. There again, whatever the birth certificate says, I think lots of us blokes are just big kids in many ways. :)

 

[BimboBob]

You'll only fall over and break a bone or summat :)

Or give yourself black eyes.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

What is it with failed goalkeepers snd second careers? Albert Camus, that fella from Westlife and some Polish lad who I heard went into the priesthood and did quite well
