Happy bday Hitcher

 

[Mastadon]

It would be great if Vincent Tan appointed himself manager.

I'd respect that guy a lot more if he went ahead and did that. No need to pretend Vince.


Hang on, it said currently working in British football, not managing right?

It's going to be Joe Kinnear.

France will play Euro 2016 qualifying round despite being automatically qualified.

Thanks based Michel.

 

[Batigol]

Vincent Tan is a fucking mentalist

 

[Elchele]

Augsburg is amazing, I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

They're doing a terrific job. Fuck clubs like Hoffenheim who are only successful because of some guy putting a lot of money in it. As long as there are clubs like Augsburg that are successful with very little money but a good plan/team spirit, football isn't dead.

I know they are doing good this season, but I only watched them in the match vs. Bayern and it was horrible. All they did was fouling

Thats not how I imagine Argentina to be. You should be in a club, dancing, loving, enjoying love, making amore con una chica linda.

There's your birthday present, Hitch.

FUCK FRANCE

FUCK FRANCE

you disappoint Cabaye.

I could never.

He will always smell faintly of Kyoufu.

Weekend predicitons?

Liverpool 3-1 Cardiff
Crystal Palace 1-1 Newcastle
Fulham 0-4 Man City
Man Utd 2-1 West Ham
Stoke 0-1 Aston Villa
Sunderland 1-1 Norwich
West Brom 0-2 Hull
Southampton 1-2 Tottenham
Swansea 2-1 Everton
Arsenal 1-1 Chelsea

 

[L1NETT]

Telegraph says Di Matteo early fav to take over at Cardiff if Makay has to walk the plank

Then I read he's gonna go back to West Brom (would make sense).

 

[Clegg]

Sky say Dempsey will rejoin Fulham for 2 months if he passes a medical.

 

[bud]

why did he go back to the states so soon? he's only thirty.

 

[Elchele]

why did he go back to the states so soon? he's only thirty.

I imagine he likes to be home + big money

 

[bud]

I imagine he likes to be home + big money

don't they have a salary cap in the mls, though?

 

[Batigol]

I imagine he likes to be home + big money

And he gets to rap again

 

[Elchele]

don't they have a salary cap in the mls, though?

not for star players, I think each team is allowed to have 3 Designated Players (out of salary cap).

 

[Clegg]

United and Liverpool linked with Ivan Rakitic.

 

[bjaelke]

Suarez has signed a new contract

 

[Clegg]

First thing on Suarez' new contract:

BUYOUT IS X MILLION

 

[Fry]

 

[Shatner's Bassoon]

I don't think I've ever seen Suarez straight on like that. Those ears are really something.

 

[Walshy]

Best thing we've done all season.

 

[LTWheels]

oh snap.

I think seeing how Spurs has fucked up after selling Bale has helped our resolve to keep him.

 

[bud]

madrid will buy out his contract in the summer.

please understand.

 

[Scum]

 

[Clegg]

oh snap.

I think seeing how Spurs has fucked up after selling Bale has helped our resolve to keep him.

Tbh I think this is a similar situation to when Ronaldo signed a new contract with United the year before he left to join Madrid.

Lock him into a new contract and keep his value high. I'd be very surprised if there isn't a very clear and straightforward release clause inserted in there.

 

[Jack cw]

madrid will buy out his contract in the summer.

please understand.

101 million euro.

 

[L1NETT]

I reckon there is a release clause, but it is only active if Liverpool don't get in the Top 4. Or something similar.

If they don't get top 4 I can still see him going in the summer.

Rules out a Jan move mind.

 

[Walshy]

The Suarez contract thing is a weird one. You either see it as him getting a clause put in so we get more money when he goes in the summer or you see it as a sign of commitment.

I like to think of myself as a bit of an optimist, so I'm going for the latter.

May be.

But it also sends a good message to January transfer target.

 

[Ushojax]

Well when Real Madrid actually offer £86m it's very tough. Liverpool were lucky that Suarez had so much baggage towards the end of last season, nobody really pushed the boat out to get him. There is no way Liverpool could have kept him if a big fish had made a serious offer last summer.

It's a buy-out clause, almost certain. I am hoping its £40m, probably more like £50m.

 

[3Sixty]

Football is a fickle, fickle game.

 

[Feorax]

If Suarez has got his buyout clause in, you can bet we'll have a "no sale to PL clubs" clause in there too. Clears up both issues from the summer in one swoop.

 

[Baki]

Can't wait to see Suarez leave Liverpool. Going to be the happiest day of my life.

I don't think Suarez would have agreed to such a stringent clause. Especially considering he has only 2 years left on his contract (and Liverpool already screwed him once.)

 

[Clegg]

At least Arsenal can finally stop mooning after him.

Release clause will be at least £50m and I reckon its probably higher.

Looking at what Bale went for and you'll probably see what Suarez will go for, if he leaves. 70-80m.

 

[Mastadon]

You were certain the other day that he already had a clause.

£50m? LOL. Sure.

That's pretty weird.

 

[Walshy]

You've got to be kidding.

There is no way in hell we've just put a £40m or even a £50m clause in with the form he is in.

You know Christian Purslow doesn't work for Liverpool anymore, right?

 

[LTWheels]

It's a buy-out clause, almost certain. I am hoping its £40m, probably more like £50m.

you dont give up do you?

Yup, Liverpool will have ensured it is at least £80m though. Bale/CR7 money.

Not worth it though, as a Spurs fan, I would rather have Bale than almost all of our other signings.

Edit: No way is it as low as £50m. After seeing what happened to Spurs with £85m and no star player to take his place, Liverpool would be foolish to have a clause lower than £80m. Maybe even as high as £100m for domestic rivals.

 

[JonnyBrad]

The release clause will be much higher than 50mil ffs.

 

[Scum]

Oi, Hitch!

How long has Suarez signed for?
