He was on BT for the Hull v Sheff UTD game. Definitely gonna be working with them after football.

Did Rio actually say that he wants to stay?

That's a 180.

Wonder what's going on there?

He said he'd like to stay on at United if possible and will do what he's always done speak with them at the end of the season.

£260k/week for Kroos. Yikes.

To be fair, £300k now is basically what £200k was 3/4 years ago - but that's still an awful lot. Although that's basically what we have to do now.

Rather it goes into Kroos' pocket than sits in a bank account anyway. Although Bayern will never ever sell him even if he did want to come.

Joke that City and PSG aren't going to get thrown out of UEFA competitions for failing to comply with FFP. I hope other clubs appeal against this.

Explain please the logic behind fining clubs that have no concept of staying profitable through legitimate means.

One of the journos made a suggestion that they could be docked points in the group stages.

Not really good enough either but would be better than a fine.

Without UCL we have no other option than throwing around money to attract the best players.

It will be hilarious that City get kicked out of the UCL and United end up in the UCL after finishing 5th.

Kroos shots alone are worth 260k.

----- Kroos - Willy -----

Adnan -- Mata -- Kagawa

----- Rooney/RVP -------

YES MOYES

@Meier, even if we won the league, then got the increased CL and TV money, £10m would still be a significant amount of money for us, let alone £20m. We're still operating at a loss I think, and a few of our players will want (and deserve) new contracts and payrises

We'd be in a comfortable financial position, but not one where we could just brush off such amounts of money

LOL. Some guys thinking Kroos and Klopp would leave their clubs.

Lol. Some guys also thought RVP would never leave. Some guys also thought Mata would never leave.

Its the appeal of Manchester bro. Everyone wants to play in the Lions Den.

RVP wanted more money and was in a club that was slowly going under, United under SAF was decent. Mata was sorted out by Mou.

I take it this is referencing Liverpool? If so the losses are still being bled through from the Hicks' fantasy stadium project drawings and stuff like the fact we're still fucking paying Joe Cole. It's booked losses but the club is now very healthy.

You underestimate the appeal of United my friend. Its the dream of every player to play for us. UCL or not.

And it'll be 2016 before we start making reasonable levels of profits, because that'll be the year when the CL money kicks in.

Can't wait for Chelsea to beat Bayern again

The cries of anti football, that it's bad to be boring

It'll make my dick harder to handle than a Kroos missile

It'll make it more solid than confuziz logic

It would take a substantial offer for Atletico to contemplate selling their prize asset, although Simeone believes Costa will ultimately decide his own future.

"It will depend on him and what he thinks is best for his future," Simeone told radio station Onda Cero.

"I will support any decision he makes. It's natural that Chelsea are interested in him and that makes me happy, because my aim and that of my coaching staff is to see our players improve.

"We understand that Chelsea have huge financial power and if he wants to live off football for the rest of his life, I will have no problem in him going.

"It was like Radamel Falcao - how could I tell him not to go to Monaco? He gave life to this club."
