You’ve made valid points but the main problem with your City’s, PSG’s or Chelsea’s has never been the source of their income. It’s been foreign ownership and a new found level of income that leapfrogs them ahead of the rest

Hope so as that means we get a cushty sell on

He done well in the Superliga so there’s obviously some talent there, I don’t know about Genk but Palace aren’t really the sort of side that will be peppering him with chances to score left, right and centre. If our DoF’s fancy him then financially it couldn’t be a good deal, one season of 15-20 goals in the Championship and he’s worth £20m. Him dropping a division and joining an attacking, free flowing side that has a high level of chance creation might be the catalyst he needs. Really I’ve no idea about him but his record in the Superliga looks encouraging

@The Palace Fan it was unfortunate that we lost Smith as at the time we were going through a dry spell but I think had he of stayed he’d have got us into the play-offs. Then Thomas Frank took over and we had to deal with that which took us longer than it would have had we not of lost Smith. On top of that Robert Rowan suddenly passed away throughout the season and he’s had a very big impact on the club that will be sorely missed. Rumour from a trusted ITK on our forum that you’re looking at cash + Sorloth(sp?) deal for Watkins

New season new Brentfjord. With 9 Nordic players and an expected 5-6 in the first eleven at any one time, alongside our Danish coach Thomas Frank FC Brentfjord are alive and kicking. This has been an up and down transfer window, we’ve made some good additions like Pontus Jansson and Pinnock who should give our defence some extra steel and experience it normally lacks. Christian Nørgaard who hopefully will will be able to help control the midfield with Mokotjo (relying on Mokotjo alone last season wasn’t enough) and the signing of Mathias Jensen will hopefully replace Romaine Sawyers who’s just left for West Brom. But we’re due to lose one of Maupay and Benrahma (most likely Maupay), maybe even both. Ollie Watkins is linked with Palace (@The Palace Fan), I think we could get over losing Watkins and I’d back our board to find a replacement for Maupay but I think we’re shooting ourselves in the foot of we let Maupay and Benrahma go, Benrahma has an extra year on his contract and I don’t think we can push for promotion if we lose 2/2 of our biggest goal threats from last season

This friendly sums Arsenal up, flash Harry’s on the ball, no incision in the final third and a shitshow in defence. Welcome back lads

Jesus Christ that’s the sort of thing a child would ask. A teacher calling her students half cast too...shambles

People saying he cleared the ball, why would he clear it after kick off at the half way line?

Didn’t watch a lot of Derby myself but from less bias accounts this seems to be the more frequent one.

Have you noticed the link between the countries who play cricket and rugby to England? Celebrate however you like there doesn’t need to be a debate over this mad stastictic

But none of the top nations in Football play cricket or Rugby (or take seriously)...half the top nations in Cricket barely play football and if they do they don’t take it seriously, the West Indies, Sri Lanka, India and Pakistan are hardly renowned for playing Rugby either Great that we won the World Cup, but we only have 2-3 consistent rivals in 2 of those sports. Celebrating that we’re the only team to win a World Cup in all three sports that we created and then shipped around the globe to different pockets where no one else takes all 3 as seriously as we do is genuinely mental

Hardly a stat to brag about

What an amazing game, edge of your seat once in your life sporting moment. New Zealand fought so hard and in reality lost in a manner in which I think every England fan expected us to. That 6 from Ben Stokes, sheer luck but sometimes it’s what you need. It doesn’t matter how you win as long as you win. Very happy for Archer, so young and he was very much an outsider to the team at the beginning of all of this. Bring on the Ashes

John Cleese said all of that whilst living in his new home in the Caribbean. Maybe John can connect the dots between him living there and the levels of immigration he doesn’t like in London.

We’ve signed Hibs academy graduate and centre back Kane O’Connor on a free

I agree he can offer a lot more, like I said I don’t think people are wrong to criticise him as a footballer but the countless column inches dedicated towards a midfielder who’s scored 16 goals this season, the anger towards him over things like his hairstyle or goal celebrations seems more personal than anyone else gets. I thought when United first signed him that he wasn’t worth the money as he seemed to have a lot more highlight reel moments (I.e. the long range goals) at Juve rather than consistent and dominant performances. He’s become a better player than then as seen by the World Cup and the goals he has scored this season but he really isn’t the dominant force United need.

Irony in calling out a ridiculous statement with “People love Mane and he’s black”. I never said Pogba can’t be criticised (seeing as I criticised him in the same post and agree with the criticism) but for a midfielder with his goals and assists tally this season he picks up a lot of column inches where other players don’t. Media has proven itself to be inherently racist time and time again

Way-hoo

Boom boom boom let me hear you say triggered, triggered

Pogba was never great at Juve, he just played with great midfielders who didn’t rely on him. This side relies on him and he can’t deliver. Great players lift poor teams, you’ve only got to look at what Gerrard done for years at Liverpool Pogba gets a lot of negative attention because he’s black, no doubt about that. But he’s also a record signing who has failed to make an impact consistently. So far the entire Pogba saga for United has been an absolute flop

He done it last season and he stayed

What happens if there’s an Arsenal/Chelsea EL final now one of you is guaranteed top 4? Will you both be given a CL spot?

Mustafi will never be good enough for a title chasing Arsenal side.
