Nope as previously explained, it's impossible now. We can't finish below United so City will have to be in top three for us to finish fourth. So fourth guaranteed CL regardless of Europa.

How's is it impossible? City can finish with 70, Arsenal with 70 (lose to City) and we're on 69 so we can finish 4th. If Liverpool win the Euorpa, they get champions league ahead of 4th place.

No - Europa gets CL place of it's own. The only way 4th loses CL place is if both Europa winners and CL winners finish outside top four, which can't happen to us now.

Just posted this in another thread but apparently O Dembele stated that he'd rather go to Germany than England when asked after the PSG game. Rafa Honigstein said Dortmund are pretty confident of getting him for 15m Eur as he technically has a €5m buy out clause.

Are these new comments by Honigstein or his comments from 24th April? I though Dembele's agent had denied the buy out clause?

I heard Honigstein say it tonight on the European Football program on BT Sport. he said it is known there is a 5m buyout, but Rennes wouldn't let him go for that without contesting it legally but would be happy as long as they get something reasonable like 15m.

Every article I have read about O Dembele says that the release clause is not enforceable in France. I think he is probably off to a giant but that would end up being a financial decision.

Montero is the quintessential player I hate. All flash, no defensive work, and little actual production. Lots of fancy dribbling so fans think he's good, but at the end of the day he's usually done fuck all except make a FB look bad.
Yep. He's Bolasie-lite. Both great dribblers and exciting entertainers, but absolutely dreadful footballers.

Bolasie at least has a bit of end product. Not enough to justify how much people like him either, but at least there's something.

Some fairly odd quotes here from Batshuiyi - you'd think he'd be more on the fence if we were close to agreeing a deal...

“My future is at Marseille. I want to stay. I love the stadium, the fans, the players here. I would prefer to make my mark here before leaving. My story with Marseille is far from over.”

Maybe trying to keep on the fans side and when sold blame it on the chairman

How old are the quotes though?
