Now without CL they need to make big bids

Fellani is alright, one of their better players, probably one of the best CDMs in the world
Without CL you need to make big bids to the players, not to their clubs.

Probably not, considering Europa

yeah but the club can just jack up the price and tell the buyer they need this player to get back into the cl

Money means nothing to PL clubs now. I know inflation plays a big part, but I miss the days when a £30 million deal was a mega transfer that everyone took notice of.

Parker Mitchell
He was good under him at Mainz. And at Leverkusen too to be fair. It's just last season the only players getting smart balls forward into attack were Gustavo and Arnold, who alternated being ded.
Besides they have money to spend.
Jose Phillips

Wyatt Cox
>spend £250 million in the space of 5 years on mid table players >become a mid table team
I know Kloop is overrated as fuck, but I thought he'd at least stop Liverpool's yearly spending on PL players not deemed good enough by Man City, Man Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham and Leicester.

problem is that happens maybe 3 times a season for 60 minute stretches.
Connor James
As long as China, India, and the USA are markets that football can still expand into, prices will go up.
Grayson Hernandez
literally DUDE POTENTIAL LMAO
Colton Ortiz
Hopefully soon la, although it looks like we are gonna have to spunk big money on Koulibaly as there aren't that many good CBs on the market
Michael Allen
Said it at the start of this season that Eric Dier has the potential to be captain for club and country if he keeps developing.
Cultured defenders are hard to come by and he can read passages of play well even if he can't influence them with his passing as well as his bumboi Alli. Super happy for his new contract.
Kevin Moore
Someone make a proper thread please
Brody James
if these soccer clubs have so much money to waste they should be taxed more heavily
paying a 100 million dollars a year to kick a ball around is fucking insanity
Ryder Cruz

Noah Williams
no player gets paid anywhere near that much and would you rather all that money be pocketed by the owners?
Kayden Sanchez
>Super happy for his new contract. Getting paid peanuts, someone should have bought him
No one is paid that much, more like 300k/week
Carson Edwards
Seems that way lad. I'd go for Higuain personally if we're gonna be paying stupid money like that
James Perez
reminder that Dier is good because he learned to play football outside of england
Grayson Hughes
Higuain is 30m more, that's another quality players worth and Higuain isn't proven in the Prem
Lincoln Turner
>30m >a quality players worth in todays market lol. it isnt 2008 anymore friend
Dominic Miller
>Isn't proven in the prem
As if people still use that as a yardstick to measure a player's ability.
The league is shit, the players are mostly shit and there's too much money. Stop baiting tripfag. Is Messi worse than Ronaldo because he 'isn't proven' in the prem.
Isaac Butler
Looks like the pattern on old bus seats
Tyler Reed
I'd look at is as being about the style of the league rather than a gauge of ability
Grayson Martinez
The Prem objectively has higher defensive quality than Serie A
Fernandinho as bought for 30m only 2 or 3 years ago
Cooper Moore
He's almost 24, he's not even young. People only rate him because of his meme run against Bayern last season.
Austin Johnson
>at is at it
Jonathan Reed
The prem is extremely fast paced and physical is a meme
Mahrez won player of the year and he is borderline anorexic
Robert King
>Is Messi worse than Ronaldo because he 'isn't proven' in the prem.
that and no international troophies and a history of being a choking faggot

Aiden Williams
matuidi is probably one of the targets, theyve still had a good transfer window even if they don't get pogba
Hunter Cook
That tactic is a direct response to the defensive styles of many teams
Aaron Morgan
