Has anyone got a clue what is going on with loyalty Points this season? I thought the points allocated for games outside of home premier league games has been this:
Newcastle away 3
Everton away 2
Borussia Dortmund home 2
Barnsley home 5
Apoel Nicosia away 5
West Ham away 1
Huddersfield away 3...
Does anyone think we could actually buy Embolo and Batshuayi? Playing Embolo out wide as he develops his game with Batshuayi in a different formation with Kane or as an alternative depending on the opposition/ fatigue/injuries/tactics?
Could the other reason include a guarantee on Kieran Trippier, we scratch Burnley's back by getting them a better price for Ings at a tribunal from Liverpool by means of our bid and Burnley scratch our back by giving us Trippier on the cheap ahead of other rivals, just a theory?
There's also the merchandise sales to factor in with a signing like Villa, that will help negate the costs plus being a name to help attract other potential targets.
My point was not about the survival, it was regarding you saying he was nowhere near as good, he scored 9 in 15 for us that season. Look at Scholes and Giggs, both a fair bit older than Villa and still effective!
Hasn't just come back, he returned in August 2012! Played most of the season as a sub and often out wide and still managed 15 goals. Better than what we've got and could well fire us into the Champions League, a class act!
It could not be more than a 25% purchase if the Qatar Investment Authority were buying in due to their controlling interest in PSG but if it's the Kuwaiti's they could buy us outright!
Where are Athletico getting £8m from? They are skint and still owe money for Falcao, maybe we are taking him to cure their debts and providing them with a replacement at the same time?
We could have stuck with Harry for next season but without the contract extension that he wanted he wouldn't have given a toss and the season would have been a disaster so Levy has had to bite the bullet and sack him and now get someone in to take the club forward, hopefully someone who will be...
Our record since the Premier League started has been pretty poor prior to 2005/2006 but we are on the up and not just since Harry rolled into town as he would have everyone believe, the 2 5th place finishes under Jol being proof of that. We doid fall back for 2 seasons but this was largely down...
I'd agree until the last 3 seasons where I think we have pulled away from them, Moyse made some comment on this last season expressing his disappointment that we had moved onto a different level when only a few seasons before we were very similar.
It should also be noted that on the only 2 occasions in the past 7 seasons when we finished outside of the top 5 we changed our Manager part of the way through the season!
