think it was 3.5 mil but i guess there is appearance bonus in there, the fact the club did not try to keep hold shows that other players are ahead, Kasey Palmer, izzy brown, Bertrand traore ?

I doubt it, seeing as youngsters never get a sniff there

I've read a similar amount plus appearance fees + sell on % of future transfer.

Van Dijk deal done. Nice to get our business done early

Given his age it will be determined by the league. Much like Ings.

If the clubs can agree a fee then it won't go to tribunal (with Tom Ince a while back the fee was agreed about 6 months after the transfer).

Tribunals do tend to be big on add-on fees and sell-on percentages.

I'm not really sure Simeone has tried to change the ethos of his team - Godin, Miranda, Costa, Gabi, Thiago etc have either moved on or gotten older and less mobile. He's rebuilding the team on still limited resources and achieving pretty impressive results. Though certainly a less successful season on the pitch and in terms of recruitment.

Anyway, they're the managers I would like to see, not that they're going to happen.

Wenger signs for two more years. cries

That was the rumour I heard - Sevilla or Roma/PSG could be interesting. Plus either of the Milan teams might change management.

Watzke/Zorc clearly didn't want him at the club, so it wasn't for footballing reasons.

Nagelsmann or Jardim would be exciting options for Dortmund. They have a brilliant young squad but it struggles to perform across 3/4 competitions in terms of depth.

lol

Everton players getting England U20's through to the QF'S of the World Cup

Ex Derby alcoholic Paul Simpson is Manager

There are even fewer fucks given about u20 international football than the grown up version.

Can you give negative fucks?

He prides himself on never having broken a contract. I doubt that will change this late in his career.

This. You really are clutching at straws with this nonsense. Did anyone even know there was such a thing?

One of these is not like the others

Impressive James manages to be on the list twice.

Cracking bit of business by Lolverpool.

Which player has been the worst, in comparison with the cost (except Carroll)? Maybe too early to tell with Pogba. Martial?

No tea towel after all.

Not sure I like the "FootyHeadlines" tag across it.

really a blue t shirt with club crest and a badge, I wanted full tea towel / table cloth. its actually ok hope its not one of them tight fit ones.
The bestist recent kit for chelsea was the 2013 /14 away

I love it...

Apart from the fucking tyre advert...

I won't be tempted to buy one. The only replica shirt I own is a 1950s v-neck cotton one which is reserved for wearing in the house when watcching major football games (and no, not during David Mellor moments)

Tyre advert doesn't bother me. Better than gammbling or beer and as I will never need to buy tyres for a car, it doesn't influence me one way of the other. Good money though.

Too much red on the logo...

happy 125th birthday liverpool

split from the blue half and their terrible football and haven't looked back since
