I dont think he won the league with Roma.

He was really not at all good, all their back 3 had bad moments. But Upamecano especially was clearly a target to go after him, definitely it was something they saw as a weakness and yes, he obliged by giving up the ball over and over. And the thing with him is too, he is so fast, which means he...

It will have had everything to do with it. His mother passed away January 19th I think, so he’s been mourning her and having to deal with everything else on top for a while. I cannot imagine the pain that causes, to be so far away and have to go through this, he of course is incredibly close...

Schalke are one of just a few German clubs not to separate the football side of operations from the other sporting clubs under their name. Most German teams have their football club ran as a sperate entity from rest of sporting clubs, which allows them to get far bigger sponsorship deals. So...

I think the fee is £18 mill going on reports on Twitter, not 100% sure on that though. Maybe it’s 18 plus add ons. Schalke are in a very bad way financially yes, they where anyway, and now lack of revenue because of Covid is killing them. Why they let him go, I would guess that yes, the loan...

It’s a good way to try before you buy! Ozan has a lot of potential, but has hit big stumbling block in a terrible Schalke team.

He has started every game he’s been available to play. But yes, he has struggled, in a poor team. He showed what he is about more in Stuttgart, only time will tell if he fulfills this potential. Easy decision for Liverpool though, pay a loan fee, get a good look at him, if they like him...

He’s having a difficult season, the team is in general of course. But he’s a young defender with a great deal of potential. I am not sure how much he could contribute coming into a new team in a new league suddenly in the middle of a season though, so it is a bit of a strange move if it is true...

The chelsea job is actually a great job for coaches regardless of the fact they don’t seem to last long. - They get very well paid, most likely making them one of the highest paid coaches in the league, if they get sacked - they get a payout on their contract too, so financially it’s great -...

agree. Whatever people think of Tuchel, he is never a step back from Lampard. Tuchel is a good coach who will get a lot more from the great group of attacking players they have in Chelsea. For sure he is to clever for his own good at times, but he will get them back on track. Chelsea squad...

Cos they finally realised what a poisonous character he is? :p I do not follow French football, but Tuchel getting sack is never the biggest surprise to me. There is always so much going on under the surface.

£25m apparently, if they hit all the clauses. And just £5m up front according to reports in Germany, which is not great to be honest! But when a player wants to go to one club, it does handcuff a selling club as we all will have experience of I’m sure with our own clubs. It does suggest how...

that seemed to be the general consensus from the press in Germany. Bayern had tried to extend his contract, but when it became clear he wasn’t going to sign a new deal, all the talk started about him wanting to go to the PL, specifically Liverpool. And that he didnt want to go back to La...

I think Thiago made it clear he wasn’t going back to Barcelona and that he wanted to go to PL. I am sure they’d have loved him back if he was willing to go. I really rate Wijnaldum as a player though, always very underrated, if he ends up leaving Liverpool, maybe he will actually start getting...

I didn’t say you where banned for breaching FFP, I was just pointing out the irony of some having a more positive image of Chelsea, despite the fact the paltry 1 window ban came for rule breaking. Of course your club is one of the big spenders, once you sign Havertz for £90 mill, it’ll be...
