  1. So he's essentially on £800kpw + royalties he receives from images rights. Not bad.
  2. Rudiger esq performances from Disasi these past couple match weeks. 2 points off 7th.
  3. Only use Netflix nowadays for their documentaries. I wouldn't dare watch any Netflix original series/films with the cookie cutter plot they constantly recycle. Stranger Things and Squid Games. That's it.
  4. It's funny how the mens team is all about the future or building for the future, the project, the project, the project, etc, etc, whereas the womens team is is straight to business. Transfers that fit immediate needs and they just appointed that Lyon manager to replace Emma Hayes, where in the women's football world is like replacing Klopp with Pep.
  5. Yeah good film. Didn't know he was the first athlete in history to receive royalties off of his branded products. His mother always knew he'd ascend to greatness.
  6. $98 billion aid for Ukraine and Israel yet the majority of Americans can't afford homes, health care, or have salaries that can keep up with this inflation. God Bless America.
  7. Best performance of the season
  8. Incredible actor in his own right and responsible in help making the first two Rocky films into cinematic masterpieces. RIP Champ.
  9. Any manager that makes the excuse regarding the Klopp/Liverpool comparison will get sacked in a matter of weeks.
  10. Bunch of gaywads in Germany amiright @Tommy?
  11. Lampard said the same thing. Dead man walking.
  12. Boehly stepped down from day-to-day operations back in November of 2022 despite the media's weird obsession to include him in virtually everything. The co-directors Winstanley and Stewart have been in charge since with the backing of Eghbali (Clearlake founder). Ownership want a model/operation method similar to Red Bull, as they believe it to be sustainable. Which is true in essence, but this is the Premier League, and the directors are bringing in far too many inexperienced players all at once which reflects on the pitch. Some of the players, like Mudryk and Madueke, I refuse to believe any analytics showed them having world class potential. They look like mid table/bottom half footballers and they are the ones called upon when Sterling is being Sterling. I still believe, squad wise, we should be where United and Spurs are. This is where I have little sympathy for Poch as we are now 7 months in and this group still looks like they were handpicked yesterday and asked to play together.
  13. Why is Gallagher 3rd captain? Why is Reece James who averages only 3 matches before injury since 2021 our primary captain? I understand the sense of identity and building a foundation around an English core, but when these players are either bang average or not fit half the time, what's the point? Poch really hasn't adapted his football and it's left me incredibly disappointed. Wolves had one game plan, and mind you this game plan wouldn't work against any of the other 18 clubs in the Premier League. We play a high line so lob it behind Chilwell so a 40 year old Thiago Silva gets dragged out wide. Simples. This type of management from Poch you'd expect from Lampard. Our midfield is non-exsistent and gets cut through like swiss cheese. Squad wise, we spent this much money and we still need to fix our entire left side, we need a ST, probably another winger, and definitely another CB.
  14. Only 750k. Rises to 4m if there are penalties (not achieving the required appearances).
  15. We need to follow Arsenal's footsteps like with sacking the bloke responsible for Pepe. Sack the bloke responsible for Mudryk and Madueke.
  16. Off to Fulham on loan. No buy option. Really don't understand this football club. Why are we heading into the second half of the season with only 1 striker?
  17. No away from home this team is pitiful and I don't think it'll be any different unless serious changes are made. Poch on a short contract looking more and more of a blessing. What we saw last night defined everything wrong with Clearlake. Big money spending with nothing to show for it.
  18. Was a poor game from him but he's easily been our player of the season and the best signing we've made in ages. Not going to put a lot of fault on him yesterday when he's carried the team all season. (Likely to end the season with Lampard esq numbers) We are such a disjointed mess of a team. 7 months in players still haven't a clue in how to play. Caicedo in isolation with the other two midfielders nowhere to be seen is peak Lampard management. Expected far better from Poch.
  19. Sterling pocketed by a 20 year old and was forced to switch sides the second half as a result, whilst that same 20 year old fled past him to score against him. £325kpw.
  20. I question De Zerbi's actual ambition as a manager. I don't think he'd particularly want a big move as of now.
