It's Quiet 16 - Txiki grinders

Yeah maybe. Although they have made exceptions before and spent big on key signing (Alisson & VVD) albeit lower fees.

unless they find someone dopey enough again to flash huge money on one of their players like barca did on couthino then no chance the dippers go that big.

Foden (25) - Haaland (25) - Sterling (30)
Grealish (29) - Rodri (29) - Bellingham (22)

McAtee (21) Palmer (23)

Will be the ages of all the lads on August 1st 2025. Looks a decent mix. We'll take it. lol

Not sure McAtee and Palmer at centre back will work, but you never know with Pep!

Keita is probably the closest example to them overpaying for a player.

They‘d need Salah and Mane to go for big money for that to happen though.

Why would they love seeing these images?

If I saw my opponent wearing that I'd be up for the match.

Sterling still only being 30 in 2025, completely through me when i was working it out. Lad has been around for ages.

They paid, at the time, world record fees for those two.

I'm hearing that one of the problems with Salah's new deal is that Van Dyke has a clause that puts his wages at the same level as the highest earner.

Never injured either. Players overused as youths can burn out, but there is no sign of that with Sterling as of yet.

The issue with Sterling will be his contract numbers.

That countinho money went a long way.

 

[Asa's left peg]

That countinho money went a long way.

What do you mean... 'went' ?

Spending some more of it this summer.

Edit - they are buying some English kid from Germany.. cant remember his name..he's 17, I think

I’ve no doubt we have interest but I’d be shocked if we signed Bellingham this or next summer. Quality player, but I don’t see it
