It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Raphinha earns around 100k per week in Barcelona. Sure, he was offered more by Chelsea & Arsenal, but we are talking maybe twice the money, not 10x the money. Not sure where you got your information from, but pretty certain Chelsea & Arsenal didnt offer him 1m in a weekly salary.
Maybe don't be Carolle Vordaman

What I meant was both English clubs would have given him way more over his 5 year deal than Barca

Can't wait to see what we look like at West Ham.

We start with a christmas tree formation with Ruben, John and Rodri as our anchors and the fullbacks overlapping providing the width.
The midfield has energy as Phil and Bernie do the running, Kev goes wherever he wants and Jack dribbles and runs at the right side of the defence. Then of course we have the big guy up front ready to bang them in.

Subs from: Ortega, Walker, Laporte, Ake, Wilson-Esbrand, Palmer, Phillips, Gundo, Mahrez, Alvarez, McAtee

I think this team and squad can win everything imo, so we don't need Neymar!

I'd rather us take stock and keep any excess money handy for next season and go and get Bellingham, because i think Bernie may really leave next summer.
 
I've been banging this drum for months. Not because of any inside info, but because if I look around the PL as a person who fits the exact mold of what a City player looks like then it's Saka. It just seems to fit perfectly.

I respect your opinion but it isn’t mine. His decision making is poorer than Raz.
 
If we bring in an expensive player who is no better than Palmer, maybe.
What a shame it would be

Palmer looks like won't be good enough to play for us in future, which is no insult to him. Saying he's not going to be one of the top 5 in his position in world football isn't an insult. Or he might become great after a couple hundred Prem games or so and develop late. But he's not currently good enough to slot into our team and the fact that some of you are using Palmer who has played maybe 1 proper senior competitive game in his pro career against Everton and was out of position, to someone like Saka who has 20 England caps, 100 PL games and was playing in a Euros recently is absolutely bonkers. Playing against Burnley/coming on while 3-0 up is not experience you can judge off and even if it was, he's played about 4 or 5 times doing that. He was great in the Carabao against League One sides - again not something you can really judge on. So frankly I have absolutely no idea what some of you are using to get so carried away with him.

I've been watching since he was 15. He's good, I like him, I think he can be a good squad player for us. He's not world class and I don't see any particular signs that that is something that will develop. He reminds me of a lot of Barcelona youth players who were going to be world class until they left Pep and ended up at Stoke. He's better than Stoke but I don't see him in that elite level talent and I'm not sure why anybody does apart from wild optimism or misunderstanding the standard of the PL2.

Smith-Rowe is going to be better than both of them put together but as a friend of mine says, y'all ain't ready for that conversation yet.
