That's definitely not accurate for Liverpool. I think we technically have £80m of debt but some of that is owned to our owners, think it's £30m. The rest was writing off the cost of the old stadium plans, and the terrible transfer decisions of KK and DC era.

my number comes from this year. not last year. but as you can see from roughly 150m in debt last year to roughly below 130m this year. We are paying off our debt. the rest are stuff of transfers, salaries, taxes. normal expenses a club would normally pay.
adding normal expenses to debt to make it look bigger is not wise naughty god.
I do agree on the tv deals issue however. Sadly, Flo is a great business man but a ruthless one as well. I do not think will change in the near future. sad considering la liga's state.
GUYS STAHP
What's the difference? It's still an absurd number of titles.
They're willing to sell him for 10M, I think.
Well Spurs have a better midfield than United, Juventus have had shit strikers up until this point. Bale was relatively quiet until near Christmas, and relatively quiet until the Inter Milan matches a few years ago. He hasn't had one amazing dynamite season consistently yet, like Vidal has two years in a row, like RVP had for Arsenal the season before. For all we know, his talent could be best distilled in bursts and not consistently over a season like Ronaldo or Messi. I think he's brilliant, but he still has a lot to prove. I wouldn't immediately say he's top five players in the world.

PRETTY MUCH
Why does this even fucking matter you calamitous grape?
It's the fucking shittest argument. It's fucking 'wayne rooney' to an extreme degree.
"God Madrid fucking suck"
"UNITED CAN'T SIGN ANYONE LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL"
Am I not allowed to comment on Madrid's shit business practises or are you gonna cry like all the Barca fans do when you watch their club
Just helping you with your math.

I thought FSG paid off our debt when they bought us?
ignore pulga, he is a plastic madrid man who doesn't even watch most of our games.
and u are welcome to comment on our practices. its shit sure but we cant do much about it. only the socios can pressure flo on it but so far they have not.
that list is inaccurate. it includes salaries and transfers, etc instead of pinpointing the debt.

The hell are you talking about? I never cried over it. I noted how funny it was for you to make fun of United for not being as big as Madrid and selling Ronaldo to Madrid, when Juventus is in the same position as United and sold Zidane to Real Madrid too.
It was funny that you unintentionally insulted your 2nd club.
He's a poison on the club. Is he allowed to run again unopposed for as long as he wants to, when it comes to it? Or eventually does he reach a maximum term?
Ayre confirmed Arsenal's two bids but said: "It's not something we're interested in and, as our fans would expect, we rejected both. The player is not available for sale - that's where we are and that's where we'll stay

Until he recovers, pretty sure that he'll be back in the top three when he gets back. Either Petagna or Niang will be loaned in january I guess, probably the one who scored less goals.

You guys need to get more sponsors. You guys have a lot of foreign fans. Same with Liverpool.
Santiago Bernabeu been president for a glorious 3 or so decades so there is no limit to how many times one can run for president as far as I'm aware of. Flo can remain president as long as he wants as long as he is kept being re-elected each time the elections come up. this year he was re-elected and ran unopposed (zero candidates).
He is not a poison, we are actually paying our debt. A poison to the rest of the world however... this I agree lol. Florentino Perez was after all the man who started this whole inflated transfer fee mess to begin with. It is because I am a madrid man, that I recognise our mistakes.

If you sign Bale, that will put you massively back in the red surely? He does not have the marketing ability of Ronaldo or Beckham, and thus will not come close to the transfer paying for itself

I agree that the TV deal is bullshit, no question about that.
Blame the fucking oil clubs spending 40-60m on average players.
You're missing the big fucking variable in that picture: Mourinho. We'll see how Ancelotti handles it.
Because you were the one wishing death and destruction to Madrid for building debt upon debt and, turns out, you're far fucking deeper in the red than we are :lol :lol :lol :lol

Sorry Bjaelke and Wooden but we're ruining Denmark's coefficient. Rubin up 2-0 on Randers at half.

Today it's "most games", huh?
Loooooooooooooool. Do you even realize you're the comedic relief around here?
Believe me, it's not because you're particularly funny.
You're fucking mental. We're doing awesome in the business sense and doing much fucking better in the sporting sense than the Calderon era.
Watching it too. Impressive studio, it's huge as well. Hope their football coverage is decent later.
Nothing to apologize for. We could do a few seasons without any European football.

They managed to make Bale look more like an ape.
Our commercial team are nearly as bad as our negotiators.
We'll be up shit creek without a paddle if we lose out on the Champion's League.
Says the man who doesn't even know who isco was when we signed him.
Had you watched our games vs malaga you would have done well to remember who he was.
Comedic relief? Not sure if Serious and Holy Shit at the Irony.
Whatever floats your boat, plastic man.

I think you guys have more fans than anyone except for United, Barca, and Madrid. Not sure who has more between you and Liverpool.
I've recently started playing. Really enjoy it. Put about 20hrs in so far. The in game guide system is really good and useful to ease yourself into the game.
If looking for guides and info on YouTube, I don't recommend looking at guides from very experienced players. They often skip over the very basics and talk about using characters at the 'pro' level.
I found TotalBiscuit's videos really useful to help me learn the game. In his videos he has basic dota knowledge and is learning the character's whilst playing. It's useful to see how to use character's at a basic level and can learn from his mistakes.

Madridistas turning on each other.
Do you not see pulga's avatar? His avatar shows his true alliance.

Don't let the hyperbole get to you, I asked what Isco's best position was. Isn't that the point of this thread? Comment and debate? Some of us have jobs and responsibilities, can't expect me to be glued to the tube. Which is why I come into this thread, to learn and catch up on things Im ignorant about.
Which is much better than coming into this thread pretending to be some ITK who actually doesn't know the difference between a donkeys asshole from the shit spewing out of his mouth.

Where the fuck is Regulus?
Bale certainly has a lot to prove like you say but he just seems to of matured massively as as a player (If he were at Barca we could call him TRT Bale). I would be surprised if he doesn't play at a similar level for the next few seasons. I wouldn't put him in the top ten at the moment but he can certainly get there if he can perform consistently. Which ever club he starts next season with he is going to have massive expectations on his shoulders. It's going to ''make or break him''.
The worry for Levy must be is can Bale's stock get any higher? Is his value at an all time high right now after a second half season masterclass?
Nah he just changes to whoever is winning. He probably didn't know that Rube lost to Everton yesterday.

Everyone just let it out.
