Lucas Paqueta investigated by FA for alleged betting breaches

[BlueLou82]

More than one occurence?

Maybe someone at either the FA or Premier League leaked something, as it would’ve become a whole lot messier if the deal had actually gone through. Feels like this came as a bit of a surprise to all parties. Doubt negotiations would’ve got this far if either side knew.

The FA according to Sky. They stepped in when they realised he was about to be transfered

Paqueta gave us good odds on it coming to light. He got his sister’s uncles brother friend from his second marriage to send Txiki a txt.

Don’t shoot the messenger-:(

Think I know the fella, he lives up in the hills in Rio in the big favella

At least he got to play a Wold Cup as a starting player.

 

[City Raider]

They better be right because if his move falls through and they’re wrong, so many parties will be able to bring claim against them. For that reason they must know he’s guilty.

Txiki has now set his sights on Portuguese wonder kid Beton DeGama

You know Fab is going to tweet that tomorrow, don't you!

 

[Karl8]

So, who do we sign next to fill in for KDB ?

 

[ElMago_DSilva]

Why go out of your way to bash Phillips when there was no need whatsoever?

I'm not bashing Phillips, I'd love to see him succeed... But the fact is Pep didn't bring him in for the last 20 mins v Burnley.

Why?

You tell me.

He brought McAtee and Palmer on.

So, who next then?

So, who next then?

Don’t know lol.

Need to start doing a police check before we enter into negotiations -:)

 

[WestGorton]

I placed a bet with Lucas Pagueta......

The elephant in the room. West Ham and the EFL allowed the City bidding process to proceed when both must have been aware of the pending investigation. Is this at all ethical? If not, how does this impact the 115 charges? Surely now all charges must be dropped immediately.

It’s a conspiracy to try & derail us. He’ll be cleared after the transfer window closes :) :)

Give McAtee a go!

 

[oakiecokie]

TH said we have been aware of this since Tuesday....therefore we have had Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and today before the news broke to react to it behind closed doors and decide what to do about it....Im sure we plan well ahead (months even seasons ahead) BUT we have to react to it...if we go with what we have we will struggle a little more than usual.

All conjecture and hearsay.

While it wouldn’t surprise me, is that really fair on the player? Would they put him through this if it wasn’t genuine. I doubt it.

Maybe he was broke after buying all those cars
Had to make the money back somehow
