Football Leaks/Der Spiegel articles

[Abattoir Blue]

Good article.I can taste their fucking salty tears and as for Didi H, ,well he`s always been a tosser.
And they call us the "bitter ones".

I don't think there's too much factually wrong with article, just the tone is embarrassingly whingy and bitter. But what did Didi do wrong? He's hardly quoted at all, and he says nothing really.

Does always make me laugh when they (nearly every similar article) shoehorn that we were playing in 3rd tier 20 years ago as if this is somehow relevant to anything. We were in the PL when we were taken over and more importantly 98-99 was out only season ever in 3rd tier - 1 out of 125 years - a statistical anomaly.

We were one of the founding teams in the premier league as well back in 92.

Yes they do seem to try and make their German readers believe we are some sort of start up club don't they.

If they want to find a start up club then they needn’t look very far, they could start in the foothills of Bavaria

De Bruyne earns more than Pogba, really?

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Did I imagine the regular open days at City?

So Kevin De Bruyne, signed for £54m is classed as 2m less Euros than the £75m of signing of Virgil van Dijk and earns £19m a year?

I thought Goebells had poisoned himself and his family?

With an emphasis on the word ‘earns’, yes.

Earns nowhere near Pogba, who their own leaks revealed was on £17.5m a year. Each July he receives a payment of £4m for image rights on top.

Kev's recently deal was £300k a week.

Top players get paid top money shocker.

I think you conspicuously missed the point of my post.

I got the 'earns' dig, was more pointing out the inaccuracy of the wages claim in the first place.
