Deal agreed with Bayern Munich for Leroy Sane - €60m (including add-ons)

[Bald fraud]

I agree with much of what you say.
I can't see how any clubs are going to be able to comply with FFP.
Shirt sales and general merchandise wont pay more than one or 2 players wages for the season at Real and the scum.
'The Swiss Ramble' estimated those two make around €19m from shirt sales. So with utd paying more than £50m to three players, that's a massive deficit.
Whilst Burnley, who proudly boast about making a profit, could lose a fortune.
Players at all clubs on current long term deals will be very relieved, but those with 12 months left might be revising their asking price.
Bayern may well get Sane on the cheap but they wont be signing Havertz and other targets unless they ignore FFP, which would be ironic!!!

I think we’ll see countless clubs failing ffp but as sure as night follows day exceptions will be made. We will still fail as eufa will simply say we failed pre covid19 when the rules where still in place

I said 'personally'.

I don't see City doing any big deals and each club will want to avoid being seen to go big first.

City, more than most.

We can go big first. Yes the press will slag us off, but they do that daily anyway. 115m bid, we get the 15 percent back or the rags have stump up Huge cash and we get a bigger slice of the pie. This kid is top class, plays either flank and seems to be matching up well with Harland....

No player will go for that money after this, hopefully it's the reality check football needed.

The last point you make is quite interesting, it looks like Sancho will leave at the end of the season and Haaland maybe the year or 18 months later.
The draw of reuniting with Sancho may be very tempting for him and may swing any deal in the end.

Sell a natural left winger and buy a right winger, sounds like a well thought out plan does that sir.

You are Ed Woodward, I claim £5.

Really you know your stuff then
Costas left footed and plays either side
And torres can play either wing
So your £5 is in the bin!:))

And both predominantly play on the right; Costa very rarely played on the left (mainly during one season) at Bayern when Ribery was injured. Torres, I've genuinely never seen him play wide left, not saying he doesn't switch sides occasionally during a game but certainly not for the majority of a game. But you knew that I imagine.

That line up with Gabby up top with sane and raz on flank . Kdb feeding them on first touch.
Those three can run all day terrorizing defenders .

TAA didn't butcher him, it was a normal tough

I agree and I think he's not quite a right fit. You almost need to build a team around him and for us other players produce more. Sterling has been shit for months but still has another 20 goals season

Could’ve sworn he done him just below the knee after they’d gone over the touch line

As much as I can’t stand Terrence Trent D’Arby, I think you’re thinking of something else because it was in the middle of the pitch and he only tripped him. Leroy’s injury came after the trip and was all his own body weight, when he planted his foot into the ground and his knee came down over his foot with all his body weight and opened up his knee joint.

Sly foul by a right sly twAt.
