’s not first time he’s disappointed in big match, either. He hasn’t been Arsenal’s best player against genuine top-class opponents, with the exception of the 2-0 victory over Napoli in the Champions League, where Arsenal produced their finest 20 minutes of the season. That suggests Ozil is the catalyst for Arsenal’s best performances, and their underperformance in matches against Manchester United, Everton, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City can all, to a certain extent, be blamed on Ozil.

That right there says it all. 42 million well spent.

If I was in Arsenals position right now id be ecstatic, you guys are too hard on Wenger, he pulled you from 4th to challenging this season with the same squad plus Ozil, give it time, you got Champions league next year and will strengthen in summer.

Real Madrid and Barcelona’s television revenue, which helps make them the world’s richest soccer clubs, will be limited under a new Spanish law.

The teams, with combined annual sales of 1 billion euros ($1.36 billion), won’t be able to receive more than four times as much broadcast income as the smallest of the 20 clubs in Spain’s La Liga under the legislation, league president Javier Tebas said in an e-mail today.

“Real Madrid and Barcelona won’t be happy” if their television income is frozen, Catherine Davies, who covers Spanish soccer rights for London-based consultancy Sportcal, said by telephone. The league is working to placate them by increasing total broadcast sales, she added.

Amid falling pay-per-view subscriptions because of Spain’s economic slump, the league aims to boost TV rights income to 1 billion euros from 752 million by 2017 by combating piracy, increasing sales abroad and pushing the government to remove a weekly match on free-to-air television, Davies said.

He's on a bus with his teammates, what do you expect him to look like?

Glum?

He's not a fucking three year old.

He posted the photo in twitter, and yes Mandzukic wouldn't smile and upload a photo if he was still mad about his situation in the club. He started the last few games and has been one of our best players again.

WE ARE RICH BITCH!!!

Allianz gets 8,33% ownership. We will get 110 million!!!!

The money goes straight into the stadium which is NOW paid off!

Damn, so we are officially 100% without any debt? that's huge
Uli talked about this day, when we finally paid the stadium debt we would be the richest club in the world

You guys think Mou is right when he says Hazard is the best young player (<24) in the world?

I would put him in the top 3 definitely.
 
City are funny

Limitless funds, 3 DMs, but only one of them is trustworthy. Especially since Toure is a fucking mess when he doesn't have someone effectively coving his lazy ass, and one of the best players in the leage when he does.

Made me laugh seeing people on bluemoon calling for Pellegrini's head in the Norwich post-match thread. Not 'he's under pressure, we should have 6 points from the last 2 games, but have just 1.' Genuine 'he has to go, now.'

Some of your lot lost all perspective the second the oil-barons took over, sad to say.

Long term Barca and Real Madrid will be better off for this. The league will be more competitive throughout, better to watch, more interesting for the rest of the world and they will still have enough money to spend on the worlds best players.

Stop talking about your unimportant deal, UNITED HAVE SIGNED A LIQUOR SPONSOR FOR SOUTH-EAST THAILAND!!!!!!!!!



There'll be a fire sale at United soon. Buy two, get one free.

The implication that any of us revel in news like that and don't mock it exactly like you just did ensures that your name change is still most definitely an apt one.
 
Barca and Madrid are 2 of the 4 most marketable teams in the world, with Madrid way out in front, and both have the best players in the world lining up to play for them. They shouldn't need such an unfair TV deal and dodgy finances to sustain their ability to buy the world's best

Where City end up this season is basically going to depend on how long it takes for Pellegrini to figure out that a midfield 2 that isn't Toure and Fenrnandinho is going to struggle to control the game the majority of the time.

Crazy people come when to a club when it gains a little success. Absolutely mental.

Simply a smokescreen to pass FFP /GAF

fernandinho has been injured the last 2 games tbf, but Di Michelis sure as fuck isn't the answer to that conundrum, and his place in the team has probably cost City the title

Why can no one in this fucking thread spell Demichelis

Oh come on, you guys will come back stronger than ever once you get rid of that imbecile in charge of your club. Big club, big name, big money, but a coach that makes Klinsmann look like the second-coming of Hitzfeld.

Give us Sammer or something idk lol

Do you genuinely think Thiago is world class right now? Haven't seen anything of him this season. That's the level he has to be at to be equal to/better than Hazard.

Thiago is better than Kroos and Schweinsteiger, I think that's world class level. He has been our best player in these last few months, maybe only Lahm has been on the same level.
 
Deemikeayliss is rubbish.

Didn't he have a reputation when he moved to City for being something of a blind spot for Pellegrini? Certainly proving to be the case at the moment, unless I'm missing some hidden attributes he brings to them. Seems constantly 5 seconds behind the play, like *gasp* Christian Poulsen.
