Liverpool trying to muscle the PL into an FFP investigation of Chelsea. I think they’re already looking into Chelsea.



So, Scouse2 didnt put a bid in of over 100 million then ? was it all just a dream ?

Lavia has made it quite clear he wants to join Chelsea so that’s that for Liverpool. Tchouameni is not for sale from Real Madrid so Liverpool’s search for a number 6 continues.

I think we should be asking the same questions, after all the FFP shit that's been thrown at us for the last 10+ years.

Edit - nice to see the yanks turning on each other already, though!

Bayern sniffing round Ortega. They need someone until Neuer gets fit. I hope we keep him.

I wondered why he was playing so much, could be we are looking for a quick profit. Wouldn't want to fall foul of FFP!

We do seem to have quite a production line of keepers. Don't know who's next in line though

If he can be the current number 1 at BM he'll be off, pity we sold Trafford but Kasper is available and would take a club trained spot.

Makes our decision to sell Trafford all that more ridiculous. Steffan it’ll be that we’ll be stuck with

Trafford wanted to be number one. It’s natural. It’s the peril of having a reserve goalkeeper who’s too good’. If Neuer comes back from his skiing accident he’ll reclaim the jersey at Bayern for a couple more years. If he doesn’t than Alvarez would have a great opportunity he’d never get at City.

Ortega? I really hope Steffen is sold or continues to be loaned out, just not good enough if Eddy gets crocked.

Btw, Neuer is 37.

It’s an important part of Pep and Tixi’s role that they are able to convince these kids that their future lies at City and if they work hard enough they’ll be given the opportunities.

I’ve not seen any quotes from Trafford to state he wanted to be number 1 though mate, where’s that from?

Great news. Be interesting to see where Rico ends up playing - position wise

The Lahm/Zanetti role most likely

I didn’t mean at City. I meant number one at a Club, preferably a Premiership club. In any other position you can offer young players some game time depending on performances. Goalkeeper is different. They don’t get injured that often and managers want them to play every match excluding domestic Cups. Trafford was ambitious and was inevitably going to attract interest. I wouldn’t blame the Club for his leaving.

Probably in a memo to Tixi as supposed to Dail Fail?
