Extremely highly rated 18 year old Real Vallodolid right back.
Had a €40m release clause which has gone down to €20m now that they have been relegated.
Dortmund leading the race but Arsenal are very interested in him and have been for some time.
A player I had recommended some time ago back...
Yes but if he'd got to this summer he'd probably go for an amount similar to Bissouma, or on a free next year.
This way we get more money than we would have no matter what.
The point of the new contract was to get some money instead of him going on a free.
The lower release clause is because it's the only way he'd likely sign a new contract.
Actually I believe we didn't have to seek permission from Liverpool to talk to Milner once he had less than 3 months on his contract.
Bosman ruling means that a player can negotiate with teams in a different country 6 months before their contract ends. In the same country it's 3 months before...
I'm not likely to get VR any time soon. It's fun don't get me wrong but at the same time I don't think it's going to be massively useful when all I play is DOTA 2 and Football Manager.
Yep, tbf I only went for 3 years when I was 17-19, wouldn't go again even if the lineup was good, would rather not spend a weekend with 17 year olds getting off their face and trying drugs for the first time.
Reading and Leeds is shit now.
Hardly any good rock/metal bands play, it's now mostly pop and rap stuff.
As far as I can tell there's not even a dedicated metal/alternative tent anymore.
It might also be worth making a classification between players that are homegrown in England vs Homegrown at the club.
European Tournament rules require 4 players homegrown at the club and 8 homegrown in England.
Big fan of Google products.
I've had phones ranging from the Nexus 6p all the way up to the Pixel 6 Pro and they're the best phones I've ever had, can't go wrong.
Also have the Pixel Watch and it's great, only downside really is the battery life.
Around the home we have a few Chromecasts...
The race was actually incredibly good, especially for a Monaco race. Perfect mixture of a dry qualy and wet race makes it a good weekend.
Pleasantly surprised.
The vegetable tagine is actually pretty damn nice. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get it for about 5 games now.
Also the vegi pies have been running out before the game which is a pain.
