Yes, but you were suggesting getting extra money from Sela who already are the shirt sponsor. The regulations certainly aren’t fair and we should look (and I am certain the owners do) how to bend them as far as possible. But becoming unreasonable would see us getting into serious bother not being worth it. I see people are getting unhappy how things worked out in recent weeks but we shouldn’t lower ourselves to a level where we are just blindly looking for success whatever the costs.

They would because it would change the terms they agreed would be fair value (for them not for us). We are in no position to bend the rules. But I will not call it being unfortunate because the joy of us shoving their attempts to keep us small into their face by working our way up will be really worth it.

They would make an example of us. We have seen how the ”big“ ones react to feel threatened. Us committing even the tiniest infringement of FFP would see us thrown a whole library at us. Us working our way up by sticking to the rules will be the biggest insult.

Used to write for the Guardian, now for the Athletic, hosts the beer and honey podcast and is author of a biography of Klopp.

It would surprise me a lot and make me weary about the fickleness of Ashworth and the owners. The last four weeks have been disappointing but shouldn’t determine Howe‘s future judging on the things he has achieved and the mitigating factors.

I do recommend taking hydroxychloroquine to cure this thread.

What a Kuntz.

They do still profit from selling Grealish and getting rid of Gerrard. They can invest in players as well as in a good manager. They will probably struggle once they are restricted by ffp as well.

It does prove that FFP rules are not just there to stop free spending but also to maintain the status quo. Our squad is still lacking depth due to years of underinvestment. We won’t be able to sign anyone notable in January.

Herewith I will retire from starting match threads. Thank you very much you cunts

Ask your wife, she might be glad to help…

They will only allowed to offer deals reparations fair market value, in the case of “United” it does mean any sum less than a trillion is fine.

After Mudryk and Wood it is inevitable that Nunez will score a hand full.

I take this one for the team

It was brilliant to finish 4th to get this year’s experience with playing in a group of death and just go out mainly because of the dodgiest decision I have seen for a long time. Not finishing in the top 6 won’t be a disaster and this is what I mean with “writing this season off” already. There is still a lot to play for obviously. January will really be difficult and you need luck to win the FA cup with draws and who you play. The mackems will be very motivated against us do this won’t be easy as well. This doesn’t mean that we can’t have a very good second half of the season once injured players are back and maybe with one or two shrewd additions. If we have a second half of the season like Villa did last season or we had ourselves two seasons ago then there is still a lot possible. But I do not expect it and as long as we keep playing like we have done this season for most games then this is fine with me.

Only way to save my day will be 10 red cards and abandoned game later. Or Klopp and Arteta having a fight on the sidelines with Klopp losing his fake teeth.

Meh

They will score a second soon and the place will go berserk.

It is absolutely nonsense what they have made of the offside rule. Instead of giving attacking players the doubt to increase attacking displays goals are ruled out depending on the resolution of a screen nowadays.

This could still go either way if we were able to score and shatter their confidence.

I really don’t understand the constant bashing of Miggy. He does have poor days and can be frustrating but hardly more than most other players in the squad. Imho his contribution to our positive results is most often underestimated. Game is frustrating and demonstrating that we are having a bad tine at the moment with things not going our way. Referee is poor but the result is rather more down to us lacking confidence. It us a shame because we could have needed a couple of positive results before going into a difficult January. I am close to writing this season off already.

We are really ot in the right state of mind at the moment. Totally lacking confidence.
