Its funny you should say that, they have there own hospital in the main stand over looking the pitch. Or they did when I went there around 1990 for Bobby Robson 1st game and also when Romario broke his leg in a game he didn't have far to go..as I remember it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can already imagine it "I'll give you 3 million euros over 15 yrs and the rights to onuachu's first born son", these turks are dodgy as fuck when it comes to transfers, look at the lyanco fiasco where they tried to change the offer when he was in turkey about to sign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarehamSaintJames Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 How does FFP work in the U.S.A.? If there is any? I’m aware of the “designated player” rule where three players essentially are allowed to be paid over the salary cap; but you can’t tell me Inter Mia are sticking to this.

Surely? 😅 The last time I looked there were various wheezes for deferring costs. Everything from allocation money being used to reduce designated costs, offsetting costs, trading costs with other clubs. At least at one point, you could trade a designated player spot. I'm fairly sure that only a set amount of the likes of Messi will go against their salary cap. The rest of the squad will fit within the many salary related rules.

Nothing to do with Jason Wilcox but just needed to point out that Real is still the club every player would leave their club for, and historically always have. And I prefer Barca.

Patches O Houlihan Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Has anyone seen any of Romain Perraud's games at Nice this season? https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/romain-perraud/profil/spieler/318523 Transfermarkt has his value down 25% since the loan. He'd have a year left on his contract at the start of next season. Wondering if HCDAJFU in the PL if we won promotion. We've four, maybe five loanees that we'd be really keen to buy, and would need money for at least one striker to replace Che, so the opportunity to get in a LB who is a known quantity might be handy. I always appreciated his efforts, and the only time he played under RM he was hung out to dry at LCB against Gillingham: He looked like a fish up a tree, I felt really sorry for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that matter, he's already demonstrated that he handles the LB role at Prem level quite well. Whose decision was it to farm him out on loan? I think we have a gem in Meghoma, but he won't be ready for first team Football (in August) if we go up. The Jack Clarke rumour sits well with me too. Just looks like a young player who will make the transition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 1 hour ago, Master Bates said: https://football-italia.net/juventus-change-alcaraz-deal-southampton/ That was always going to happen, the high 'future fee' advertised in the loan was just to appease some figures/numbers, it was never being activated. We'll probably negotiate an obligation in the region of £20ishm, with a loan deal for one of their wide players thrown in. (if we get promoted, they won't come here if we don't).

Convict Colony Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 The most obvious Italian tactic every winter is getting a loan with an option to buy that they will never ever pay if they like the player.

Just where are a top level scouting department supposed to find this fantasy player with 2 working legs who can do his job half decently? And that's before SR's left field hiring smugness gets applied. I hope you guys don't hold your unrealistic expectations against SR rolling out our recently deceased, uniped zonal attacker next season. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
