Yeah Inter seem to have run out of money very fast, so they win Serie A and now lose all their players and manager haha, nuts.

Lukaku to Chelsea is on!

Don't get financial fair play this season with convid. How does FIFA expect clubs to plan for this with long term contracts. Only clubs with sponsors and money from cl can do that.
To be honest financial fair play is ridiculous because of u do not get results you want there is a drop off in income, but if you do not invest you don't get results. Only servers as a gate keeper for new teams to become good.

Balls. Well that’s disappointing, would have been nice to see Conte at least try to ride it out and blood young talent on a budget next season, although I don’t begrudge him for not wanting to work under heavy constraints.

For all that the European Super League was a total shitshow, one can at least see why the non-English teams were tempted.

Barca are teetering on the brink of heavy financial problems, Real aren’t far off, Juve have been run admirably for years, but one feels they’re only a few bad decisions away from struggling too. Inter are financially toothless once their benefactor wasn’t pumping the money, and Milan are only now recovering from huge financial problems after their previous benefactor didn’t cut the mustard.

I’m pretty sure FFP has been waived this season, or at least circumstances have been taken into account. You are able to spend money on infrastructure though, as a form of investment that’s less tied into your averaged income, at least more freely than expenditures on players and salaries.

It still needs further tweaking to enable upward movement, for the reasons you describe.

A world without FFP over these past years and I don’t see a scenario where many, many august clubs went to the wall with the Covid crisis. So there is at least that

I can see clubs saved by not spending because of this, but feel that FFP would make clubs go bankrupt if they make a try and fail or force them to sell out
Also I think you will see clubs go bankrupt that are not in pl and get most of money from TV deals.

United following their general game plan of this season - concede the first goal. Been a success most of the time, let's see how it goes now!

What was that injection-in-the-arm reference from Moreno?

Yeah, I'm still super saddened by what happened to him. It's some sort of irony that we complained about him and got him sacked, then only got worse with every season after that
