He wants more playing time apparently and not sure Slot is a massive fan of his. I think they should keep him but if they do sell there needs to be a buy back clause, I think he's a really good player.

There were rumours during his absence from the squad but nobody was reporting anything other than the clubs mouthpiece of an injury. Arsenal let him leave out of contract because of contract differences.

It was the number he wore with pride and distinction, leading us to countless victories in the process – and Diogo Jota will forever be Liverpool Football Club’s number 20.

After consultation with his wife, Rute, and family, the club can announce the squad number will be retired in honour and memory of Diogo across all levels, including LFC Women and Academy.

Nope. Arteta is not Xabi Alonso. Sadly we went shopping at a certain supermarket and now wonder why it's all gone wrong.

Pep didn't want to disrupt a winning machine. They could have foreseen what was to unfold.

Although Sesko for £90m and having £60m left over from Isak seems way too good to turn our noses up at.

150mil for a 60m injury prone player is crazy but Newcastle gambled with him so well done.

Sheshko :LOL: all these super fans were convincing themselves he's good. You'd hope he's a Giroud.

Marc Guehi has 12 months remaining on his Crystal Palace contract and Liverpool are keen to get him signed up. Nunez is going for decent money :shocking: you reckon you'll retain the title if Isak gets signed too Den?

Sesko has chosen Man Utd. Newcastle could be left vulnerable. A chat with Eddie Howe will only go so far, it's the champions knocking on the door.

Its pretty hard to retain the title as its a very competitive league where the top clubs are still spending huges amount of cash on new players.

The rules are the rules. Fair enough if you've found loopholes but this is admitting foul play then giving a reason. You have either broken the rules or you haven't.

Greedy bunch in my opinion. I reckon Palace are lucky to still be in a European competition. Go win it...

Re: Season 2025/2026
 
It was never going to be successful - CAS are there to ensure UEFA have applied the existing rules correctly, not whether they did the right thing.


The whole MCO thing has gotten a bit silly to the point they might as well just scrap any semblance of control they might have over it, and just allow it without all of this blind trust stuff, and then just keep an eye for anything which does sound unsporting, but none of that is what CAS were asked to do.


Palace were in a MCO and they took no steps to move Textor's shares into a blind trust by the deadline, so they were not eligible to be in the same competition as Lyon, and so as the lower placed side were demoted. It is as simple as that.

We were on it, nice to see us not need to counter attack.


Plus with the 2 new lads already signed and the other 2/3 who are apparently close, all attacking reinforcements, should give us even more options.


Just as well because our issue last season was breaking teams down who sat back and gave us the ball. Even Exeter managed it.

We beat them on away goals in 95-6 as well when we last played in a European competition. We were the last British side in Europe that year.


The next year we got relegated

Nope. Real Madrid, the biggest football club on the planet generally don't make many mistakes. Arsenal fans are convinced they have something in Martin Odegaard :no: He ain't winning Arsenal a title or he'd have done it at Real Madrid :dunce: Eze signing shows great depth.

The only plus is watching the sweet prince Calafiori grrr.. :LOL:

In fairness he is competing with both Aina and Williams who played most of last season, both are about equally good LBs as RBs, and we also signed a lad from Juventus who can cover all 3 defensive positions, and a 4th Botafago player who is also a LB. So he will need to fight for his place especially given the others are our signings and not just on loan

Alex Moreno, who we loaned from Villa, was Ok for a bit and then barely played after Xmas.
