There's a small part of me that would love to see them offered a big chunk of public money on the provision that they build the stadium on something like an out of town site with easy access to the motorways, the fume from Che Neville would be immense and the tax dodging Jim out campaign would be in full flow

"Machester United Football Club can't be allowed to leave Old Trafford because how else is my shite hotel going to be incorporated into the stadium reasons..."

Neville's Hotel receiving a compulsory purchase order and being flattened for a car park would be nice.

Would much rather we go for Olise than Kudus, he is a better player now with a higher ceiling and won't come with the AFCON bullshit every other year.

He might be switching his NT allegiance to Algeria.

This is excellent and is from his first season in Rotterdam.

That significantly reduces the number of available players though.

Injuries are a part of the game, some of them can’t be helped and some of them aren’t the player of club’s fault. I keep reading people berating our medical team, like it’s their fault Harvey’s ankle snapped, Robbo’s shoulder popped out for Scotland, Salah went to AFCON or Gomez went on England duty…

Nearly every player around can face a spell on the sidelines and more often than not they’ll suffer another one close to it, but if we rule out players who’ve had any kind of long term injury we could end up missing out. I remember all those years ago being desperate for us to sign Gundogan when he was at Dortmund, my mate was adamant he was too much of a risk because of his injuries and we needed someone who’s never had an injury before. Eventually we ended up getting Keita who became the most injury prone player ever, City ended up getting years of 40-50 game seasons from Gundogan.

I should have clarified muscle injuries are mostly what I'd be vary of. Impact injuries you cannot control those.

Liverpool FC Forum / Re: Mohamed Salah - Best in the World *

It's a bad negotiating standpoint for us if it's let out that we are looking rid of Salah - just saying. So I don't think anything in the press at the minute is going to confirm either way. I think it feels like the end to a of people now though. It does make sense with our business model too, sell while there is still some value and the player is past their peak.

I would be really surprised at Edwards offering him a new contract.

As a player he is probably in the top 5 we have ever had, but we need to put aside sentimentality if we want to get back to where we want to be for the next era.

Other players have also missed massive chances.

The best finisher in the squad had an open goal and didn't score.

Indeed and he too should have scored.

That's a form of "cheating" as he subverted the rules.

Yeah but in terms of the bottom line, once he blew the whistle then any goal couldn't stand. I think he's reacted quickly in embarrassment, going over to the keeper.

Taylor will be going to the Euros and was at the heart of controversy last week.

We must ask for audio of this situation.
There is literally not a single redeeming point for Taylor.
He did it to stop us from scoring.

But those team lineups are correct. You not wanting to believe something or disliking the fact it was revealed doesn't make it untrue, any more than I would choose to disbelieve a weather report just because it predicted rain.

Two completely different things though. The actual lineup is revealed hours later so the veracity of the claim can be checked. Leaking that you wanted someone else after a player has a dip in form is completely different.

Neither thing should be happening and the second is an example of arse covering. The leak last week was also at a time when there is a power vacuum at the club with Klopp leaving and people are jostling for position.
