It's Quiet the £250m return

Yep, and after the real punishment we had, and PSG, it's now just fines if you break the rules! The Premier League is eating itself with these rules! When they say, “Oh, we can't let teams pay what they want,” well, Chelsea have rags, have they? When they should curb what they are spending! I think the new rules, which were coming in this season but postponed for some reason until next season, bring in more squad control. The % of turnover limit is a better model. Guess what the original old FFP had, in a way, a built-in squad control? The Rags Director was in charge of FFP and took it out when his club was going to fall foul of it.

FFP was always just aimed at pulling the ladder up, other clubs adhere to the rules whilst the cartel do what they want.

The rags should have been relegated due to their financial mess and the spade in the ground con by the scouse barely gets a mention.

It still feels strange hearing Liverpool being called champions—it just doesn't sound right yet. Maybe I’m just too used to City's success—I’ve gotten spoiled.

I think Liverpool are deserved champions but not convincing champions like we have been several times. They were better than the rest with Arsenal tailing off like they do and us having so many injures and tired off form players.

I think we've all gotten spoiled but it has given many of us a sense of perspective and humility instead of entitlement and expectancy that inadvertently crept into certain posters minds.

Been told we have enquired about the RB from Porto, Martim Fernandes, 19 y/o, come from the same person in Portugal who told me we cooled interest in Costa (GK) a few weeks ago, so I thought I'd share in case it's anything.

Release clause - assume we'd look to reduce it, I think it's 60m Euro

25 league games this season, 6 assists.

Thanks for sharing mate. Interesting and sounds like a Viana vibe for sure . . . maybe Viana went off Costa a bit too last season. Think he dropped quite a lot of clangers from what I read. Hope Edders staying

in 15 starts as well, definitely a longer term project player but decent stats on him.

Linked to Liverpool earlier this year..


Why Martim Fernandes Could be the Heir to Trent’s Throne at Liverpool - Breaking The Lines

Liverpool have pulled off two vital pieces of business by signing Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk to new contracts, with the veteran duo entering the final months of their deals before finally extending their time at Anfield through 2027. However, they haven't been quite as lucky with Trent...

You are not kidding.
I read so many posts with people on here saying they want "our titles/trophies" back.
They are not "ours". They are earned every year. Any true City fan knows this and respects this.
Just waiting for the "this is City we are talking about", to know we've changed!

Martim sits behind only Desiré Doué in Europe’s Top 7 Leagues among U21s for key passes per 90.

not bad for a RB lol

Obligatory, playing the rags video (Well Cherki has one!)

Delph & Zinchenko must have been left backs then seeing as Pep won trophies with both those players not playing in their so-called natural position.

We won the league with no striker and got to a CL final playing a false 9. Doesn't mean we didn't need Haaland.
