Has anyone EVER seen this be something that actually needed a rule like this for?

My initial guess is that it could be a thing with some junior league setups with different pitch dimensions and they're trying to have as unified of a ruleset as possible.

Or someone at the department of rules felt like they need to justify their existence.

Think it is more about bringing it in line with throwin and the changes to the handball rule. After this theres now no way to score a goal with the hands

Trippier to Atletico for roughly 20 million pounds is probably the least expected transfer so far. I don't know if it's a good or a bad one, but definitely unexpected.

I guess there are not too much good players in that position and Atleti needs one (They wanted Semedo, but after the Griezmann issue they don't have good realtions with Barça).

Although, English players in Spain don't have a good record, Gary Lineker in Barcelona is the only sucesful one I remember right now.

probably cause there isnt a whole lot of them to begin with. wiki lists 20 who have played in la liga, if accurate, that is much lower than what i would have guessed

i guess there really is no shortages of places to play in england if you're from england, so u dont have to look abroad, or they dont like spain?

I think it's the language barrier. Spain is generally the least english speaking place in the western Europe. I blame their dubbing.

Dumb asses, it's almost like they believe Messi is about to retire, and Neymar is just there to take the spotlight if that indeed happens so he wants to get there ASAP.

It's a complicated matter due to the number of people involved and the conditions of any such deal, but Paris Saint-Germain, and coach Thomas Tuchel, have recognised that he wants to leave.

The first obstacle is the price, given that Barcelona have already spent 225 million euros on Frenkie de Jong (75 million euros), Neto (26 million euros), Antoine Griezmann (120 million euros) and on Tuesday, Marc Cucurella (4 million euros).

Until now, the only departure this season has been Sergi Palencia moving to Saint Etienne for a few million euros as Jesper Cillessen, Denis Suarez, Andre Gomes and Marc Cardona's exits all contributed to last season's figures.

That means that Barcelona start the negotiations for Neymar being 223 million euros out of pocket and with the Brazilian valued at 175 million euros to 200 million euros, they could easily reach at least 400 million euros in deficit.

This year, FIFA indicate that the difference between spending and sales on transfers cannot exceed 100 million euros, which would mean that Barcelona would have to rake in 300 million euros in transfers between now and June 30, 2020.

Such sales would mean a real shak -up of the team, not only for the amount of money but also for the time in which there is to achieve it.

Barcelona must know how much money they have available to make an offer to PSG, which may mean that some sales are agreed in advance of talks over Neymar.

There are a number of players who are following the situation closely, with the first being Philippe Coutinho, who has been on the market for some time, not only to fund a move for Neymar but also for Griezmann, but he is yet to find a destination, though PSG could be one.

I don't think they are going to buy Neymar. They have not contacted the player and they don't need to reinforce that position. It is Neymar who is constatly offering to the team because he wants to leave PSG.

The money PSG is asking for Neymar makes it seem like they either want to keep him while avoiding a direct shut down of the transfer request or they're sensing some kind of desperation from the very few clubs that could actually afford the transfer.

Ah, that does seem likely. Since Barca's already spent so much, I wonder what other teams would want/need him and are willing to pay the 200m Euros

What happens if they don't sell them, or at least able to?

Hajduk Split just got knocked out of the Europa League by some team from Malta with a 3-3 aggregate score. Second leg was played in Split and the away team scored the killer at 97th minute, lmao. The last two goals were insane though.

So Huddersfield is leading some kind of movement against shirt sponsors (even though Paddy Power is sponsoring the... no sponsorships).
https://www.footyheadlines.com/2019/07/insane-sponsor-huddersfield-19-20-home-kit.html

This actually got me thinking that a ban on shirt sponsors would actually solve a lot of things.
- Club shirts would look way cooler;
- Would reduce the distance between tier 1 clubs and the rest;
- Since it would apply to all clubs, the overall effect is a reduction in revenue and an increase of competitiveness but it would be generally seen as 'fair' as it would apply to everyone.
- It would make life harder for shady sponsorship deals like Gazprom with Zenit and Emirates with PSG.
