Ronaldo is better.

Even with a salary reduction i can't see any PL sides being able to pay a sizeable fee plus whatever % of that £99m, even a 50% reduction, except maybe City .

Yep its going to rumble on and either a stalemate and a wasted season for both or around 100-150m fee. I suspect the higher the fee then less Messi's team will be able to demand in wages.

Understand their motive, but surely the contract is between the player and the club. How can a national association stipulate the fee clubs will have to pay? If Barca want to hold on to a player who no longer wishes to be there, then it is up to them to manage the situation. This will definitely go to the courts, then i can see him spending a year going through the motions and will leave for nothing rather than the 50-100m Barca could have got? After nearly 20 years of service i'd have thought an amicable split could have been sought.

No issue with freshening things up after a while, but change for Woke sake is a bad cowardly change.

That must be illegal, how can a league insist a player remains within it just because he plays for one of their clubs?

Dinamo Moscow def one to avoid. A visit from the New Saints would be different.

Yep, but then again i've always thought Ronaldo was the better player for club and country.

Ahh, what a laugh, don't you just love it when a result comes together.

Not sure what team would be prepared to splash out a massive fee on top of his huge wage of 400k per week for a 33 year old untested in any other league.

I'm not sure where the lad would be more comfortable looking at his performances for the Gooners.

Might have option to push one up into left side midfield if required.

Isn't it in todays market? I think it's good business.

I'm not sure an EPL club would pay £14 - £20m. Tierney was massively overpriced. I think Kent will be here for the season, and the next if he doesn't kick on and be a consistent match winner.

If its the same Roofe as at Leeds then yes, if not then he might struggle but i think its worth the gamble at low cost.

2-0 Morelos 2

Would be a huge drop in revenue and not sure i can see turkeys voting for Christmas just yet.

I remember 3 coach loads of Rs fans coming along to the full members cup final v Man City which ended 5-4 . Simpler times.

As an aside. Much more history with Chelsea than Millwall https://www.ablueheart.com/football/chelsea/history-and-friendship-between-chelsea-and-glasgow-rangers

I doubt the guy was there then

I wouldn't trade Morelos for either Roofe or Itten or both together. We need all three plus Defoe as extra back up.

I thought the same about Chris Sutton.... and was right.

Ollocks

Yes defence definitely needs some surgery.

Like it, clean lines with no silly patterns. A winner for me.
