I agree with you. There have been owners that feel an obligation to the team and it's fans to leave the team in the best hands possible. I don't believe Moshiri is in that group.

This tells you that Man City has played out the delaying tactics as long as they could and know they are going to get hammered if they don't do something else.

I would think any prospective owner should have access to a lot of cash or this would not be a good choice as owning a sports franchise isn't a tight budget purchase.

Hard to believe that there are not more teams than Man U that want him. If they deal him for £40 million out of desperation they have earned another relegation struggle.

They could have hit Man City with a 60 point deduction and they still would have been clear by 5 points.

I was going to go with crime, but miracle works too.

I hope someone there now knows how the spending rules work well enough to not violate them again. If it is a surprise to you that you spent too much, you either have a bad bookkeeper or make deals when you are blackout drunk.

Hopefully the last Ashley Young moment for Everton.

On penalties, all VAR should do is identify the more difficult to interpret situations and give the ref a chance to thoroughly review it with the benefit of various angles on replay. If the VAR is taking that chance for a better look away from the ref, then that is a problem. All the plays...

No buyer is going to purchase the team for anything short of a deep discount if they believe another point deduction is imminent. This season will not repeat with 3 horrible promoted sides. You will be back needing close to 40 points next season as usual to stay up and if they have to sell the...

Seeing the choice of buyers the first time from Moshiri, he would probably end up finding a billionaire on the government "no fly" list.

With reinsurance you should have to have the ability to actually pay the inevitable claims and that usually means the investments are fairly liquid. It appears that 777 isn't really worried about that since they seem to have the ability to keep borrowing more. But that always has an expiration...

Buyers of sports franchises almost always have a huge foundation of money generated by the assets they hold or just cash they have generated from earlier assets. 777 just seems to borrow constantly and move money around. That eventually crashes and burns when all the creditors want paid at the...

Always easy to be the high bidder when the money is being stolen from someone else. Even if they eventually get the team ownership on paper, it will be taken from them to pay off the court cases. While that is happening, Moshiri has spent the sale proceeds on other investments.

That was the value of Lukaku. Could create for himself and was so dangerous that others were open too. Everton needs to start doing a lot better with their Academy or get some personnel guys that can find young talent in the less obvious leagues around the world to ever see that level of...

DCL needs someone else up front to draw defenders. With Richarlison, he was way more dangerous because Richarlison demanded attention. Even if they have some money to spend in the next window, you are not getting a fully developed Richarlison equivalent in their budget. They need to properly...

Not sure why they don't drop the appeal now. They will probably get docked more points next year because the money they spent paying lawyers for this appeal put them in violation of the spending rules.

And after this insane season with point deductions hanging over their heads for most of it, it would not be surprising if they still have a hangover from guaranteeing survival. Combine that with Luton being in desperate need of a win and being at home, I will be pleasantly surprised if they can...

If you have multiple bidders then the price should reflect his value. Fofana went for £75 million. Branthwaite should be in that same range.
