What reason does Odegaard have to go there? Same with Rice and Bayern....why would they?

Ugarte to Chelsea for 60+ million apparently. Cant say ive seen him play a lot but by all accounts a v good player.

Guaranteed Champions League football week in week out?

Plus living in Paris vs living in London should be no contest surely!

Just wondering, have you been to Paris?

Most of Paris is a dump.

To win something?

You start in Germany / France...you dont aim to go there. Its, for the most part, a one team league that no one really cares about.

To be fair, the area most of the PSG players live is lovely.

Can argue the same about Chelsea, Kensington, Belgravia, Notting Hill, Fitzrovia...etc.

Pretty much all of those are in the middle of the city, though.

The area where many of the PSG players live is to the west of Paris along the Seine, much quieter and with a slightly better climate year-round.

Oh ok, fair.

Edit: Wait, I have a response. Richmond.

Yeah pretty much. You also have very good transport links. The great parts of London whilst nice are an absolute pain to get to and out. Paris is nowhere nearly as bad. Although its been a good 7 years since I last went so it could have changed massively in that regard!

Do Bayern really have a chance to sign Odegaard and Rice? I can understand they would have some pull, almost always guaranteed silverware there. Or are they playing service to fans to 'show' ambition in the market.

All of them

This is proving more accurate than you imagined at the time.

According to L'Equipe, we've opened talks with Nice for Khéphren Thuram and there's reports coming out from Germany that we're in for Manu Kone from Mönchengladbach too.

Bigpig · 30 May 2023 at 22:25

Gees the PL is going to bring it next season.

Kone is tasty

BaZ87 · 30 May 2023 at 22:39

Do you watch these players @Bigpig or is this based on YouTube scouting? That Leipzig player you keep mentioning, I genuinely hadn't even heard of let alone seen play.

Manu Kone

A player named ManU playing for Liverpool, I’d love to see that (but only if he turns out gash!)

A Manu that's gash would be quite fitting to be fair

I follow a few statos hah

Seen him mentioned early this season as a number 6 for Toon with Bruno going to an 8. If I can remember correct he got bags of talent but his defensive stats a little off as his team play low pressure?

I've not even seen him on YouTube, you're asking the wrong person.

I've just finished a 6 minute Thuram clip and will be devastated if we don't sign him, he looks good.

He prefers Kone.
