It has probably already been said but that kit is fucking awful. Looks like a polo shirt Andre 3000 wore when The Love Below was released.

Aye, I’m normally partial to a pink kit, but it’s hideous

Has a player ever returned to a club and it been a success?

Without thinking hard at all and there probably being loads, they either seem to return a shadow of themselves and offering nothing or they’re too old/past it to ever really make an impact

I suppose Drogba at the Blues did okay but he didn’t really score many

remember when Jens Lehmann resigned for The Gunners

It wouldn’t solve serious mismanagement by owners and chairmen, or the game at the highest level being rotten to the core, but I honestly think something that could have a big impact on lower-league and non-league clubs would be a) a designated night during the week when no football above League One level is allowed to be played/televised, and b) extending the TV blackout to include Saturday lunchtimes.

More chance of Moses walking through the front door, obviously, but most Saturdays I get up and think I’ll go to watch Bury or Bolton or Macclesfield, but then see, say, Wolves v Spurs is on so fuck it off.

Yeah, there could be some saving fund to pay these bills but it’d only be temporary with the current owner. And it’s not like you can blame the fit and proper owners test because Alkadhi started off alright.

Joe Sealey is still making noises about being interested in buying the club. Apparently the issue in the past was Alkadhi wouldn’t release the books. Now the administrator will have them in the next couple of days so we’ll see if there’s any hope of a sale but I doubt it will happen.

David Batty was decent in his second stint at Leeds

Can the lads on here who pretend to still watch the Spanish farmer’s league tell me what this Gimenez is like?

Looks like he could be a decent partner for Laporte.

David Luiz (to an extent)

Buffon

He’s good, very aggressive. Proper rottweiler of a centre-half, maybe what you’d need alongside Laporte. Interested to see how he’d do outside of Simeone’s set-up.

mad that party powder Szcezny starts in goal forJuve

Turns out there has been!

pretty good, but odd that Atleti are selling him? does he have a low buyout or something?

Looks like a kit I’d have designed for my team on Fifa when I was 10 years old.
