Man City. They will pay him a 50 mil signing on fee in an offshore bank account so Leo can avoid tax and City can pretend they are playing ball with the financial fair play. City will get caught red handed but UEFA will be too incompetent to actually do anything about it.

fyp.

20 Euros should have been more than enough for the Greek coppers, but the dopey slab probably offered them United tickets instead and they just decided they might as well arrest him.

Sterling>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Rashford.

Rashbeck seems like an absolute top, top person, but he's probably a better lunch lady than a footballer.

I agree Sterling is better than Rashford and I am fairly critical of him myself but he managed 17 goals and 8 assists last season playing mainly on the wing. Salah had 19/10 Mane 18/10 Sterling 20/6.

He might not be elite but he's a good player.

Barca haven't given him nothing but shite in management and on the pitch. Now it's never mind the bollocks here's Ronald Koeman and suddenly they're looking to rip up the contract of Suarez like it isn't insanely disrespectful and all that just because they don't see him having a significant role in RONALD KOEMAN'S SYSTEM, the guy who got the boot from Everton. I would judge Messi for not leaving them tbh.

True, but at least Messi will have the CL quarters where Pep will stick him in at center-back against Shakhtar Donetsk.

Completely forgot Koeman had a brief failure at everton

Imagine messi wanting to be coached by this guy :

I got no problem with him leaving but taking advantage of a gentlemans clause obv designed to allow him to leave to a boyhood club only to then turn out for an oil club with no compensation to barca would be a pussy move.

Koeman has always come across as a smug *******, so it would be quite entertaining if he blew his chance with Holland only to be sacked before he ever manages a game with Barca.

He couldn’t even bully Niasse out of Everton. Imagine trying that **** with Messi.

you seem to have a real problem with him leaving by calling him a pussy, idk lol

my take is, if you have one of the greatest players of all time then it's your responsibility to field a squad that can contend for trophies. if you can't do that, then the guy should leave for a squad that gives him chances at trophies. truly generational greatness should not be squandered due to loyalty at the expense of fans being denied amazing experiences.

lenC is right, the guy has been there a long time, barca is now a wreck, bye.

Surprised Nicholas has lasted so long. Always thought he was one of the worst pundits on tv.

Thompson should’ve gone years ago. He should’ve been ditched completely when they stopped letting him cover the Liverpool games.
They’re keeping Merson though?
Presumably we will get Micah every weekend now, unless they’re sacking them because the Soccer Saturday format is going to have to change this season with distancing.

Honestly, couldn't agree with this more.
