He's better than Grealish. Grealish out for £100m and Coutinho in for free (for now - and less than half his Barca wage) strikes me as a ruddy good deal

I reckon Stevie will re-light the fire in Phil. It didnt work out for him at Barca, but that had to in part be down to him having to fit in around Messi.

Talk about Villa going all in for Bissouma as well... what a window that would be for them! (Assuming Bissouma's not banged up for assault)

& back from Afcon unscathed.

Actually i think that link is bull****; they are struggling with FFP due to their spending ( i know they got 100mill for alice band boy) but was listening to a villa podcast contributor on TAW & he was concerned by the limitations on spending stevie G will have due to FFP.

Are we still assuming that FFP is being enforced?

But.....but...... but they just signed two LEGITIMATE non UAE related sponsorship deals and according to Pep they sold a bunch of youth players....... and they amazingly got double their money for Ferrarn Torres from bankrupt Barca. They stink and it’s only a matter of time they turn the English league like Germany and France

Only Newcastle (in time) and possibly if United get their **** together will stop them. Even Chelsea can’t live with them

Think it could be said that they already have. Had we not won the title the season before last then City would be chasing five titles in a row this season.

As things stand if they win it this season then that is four out of the last five and six out of the last ten. From a club that prior to that last won a title in 1968.

[SB]

Yeah without anyone enforcing FFP it’s become a bloody joke. Even Roman can’t compete with the levels of corruption we see at City.

[Exiled_red]

Are the PL still investigating City over FFP or has that been dropped?

[Slinky Skills]

Butland lol

[Tribute]

Jack Butland showing why he’s only played five senior games in eighteen months. He’s turned into Karius…. What a mare. Was a special talent when he was younger. Talk about a fall from grace…

[Deano]

I do like the Arsenal white shirt they are sporting for knife crime

[Slinky Skills]

Lol at Arsenal and Arteta the Lego head!
