Unfortunately not where moneys involved
The rags are a licence to print money for the media with the 658million fans all to eager to click/buy anything to do with the scum

I doubt it will ever change unfortunately
They have too many glory hunters from the past who will believe anything the club tell them.

Look how this £40m been brushed away with barely a headline.

The fact that the Glazers get away with millions year after year just shows how gullible the sad bastards are.

unfortunately de ligt does improve their defence

No idea about the guy they are buying for left back but if they also get one of the CDM targets they will be better than they have been

They also gave Wan-Bissaka £5.6m to get the deal done hahahahahahaha

The only problem is with amortisation they won't have lost money on the deal.

If the 115 charges were heard tomorrow and we were relegated to the Conference League, this shower of shit still wouldn't win the PL before we do it again.
That's how shit they are. OK Angel Delight will improve their defence but fuck me, my grandma could improve it, that's how shit they are. (She's been dead 20 years) They only finished 8th because of some very dodgy decisions.
They are shite.

Corruption where the PL/FA and the rags are concerned is the norm, always has been and always will be.

They won't risk killing the golden goose.

The premier league is the golden goose and its in the process of being killed by the American owners of premier league.

In terms of PSR maybe but when your bank balance shows 50 mill out and 2? years later 15 in, then you have lost money.
Plus you need to remember the asterisk next to the 15 million. (The fact that they had to pay out nearly 6 to get rid of him)

Let's face it Fellow Blues, we've been miles ahead of them for more than a decade now. That's a long, long time in football. As much as I took great delight in beating them in the CS I had to face the fact that anything less would have been an embarrassment. That's how far we have come
It ain't over yet, either ! :-)

Shocking business that. He's got to be worth more than £15m or are they just that desperate to get some wages off the books and opponents are low balling them?

Surely not because they have scruffy jim and other first rate football people in charge these days .
