Valid reason!
I think mods are helpful in this if you PM then but I don't really know which mod to ask, seems like a mystery ban to me. Maybe he wanted a break from us bastards?

It would be hilarious if Barca get Coutinho, but then Liverpool get back Suarez. 😂😂😂
Liverpool don't even need Suarez. They need to defend better.
I'm still super salty over letting Bacca go though, and don't get me started on Borini starting sigh.
I think so too. As long as we don't get Barca again. Hopefully now that we've got one foot in the door the board will start to spend a bit. Forget loaning Roberts for another year - just buy him. Another CB wouldn't go a miss either.

He's one of the dirtiest players out there, I have zero respect for that cheating cunt.

He deserves it.
Smoke sellers?
Your average football fan is also pretty close-minded & set on their ways though. It'll probably take one or two great seasons for opinion to change on him (assuming he comes good). God forbid he makes an error or misses a chance.
Late reply but I'm cautiously hopeful too! If they get a decent number 9, it's going to make for a bright hopeful season. I don't have any guesses as to who they will get, everyone is way overpriced this season, just hope they work their transfer magic again. Most of the buys this off season have been rather good. When Klaassens been the one with the least impact I think that's a good sign.
Another thing Everton have been impressive about is that they were only one of a few teams that were really prepared for this transfer window. They pretty much knew Lukaku and probably Barkley were going so they had most of their targets already planned way before the season finished I assume and got the deals and finance done really early, before anything about Lukaku was announced.
Regarding Arsenal, their attacking options look great again but every year it seems they never address their defensive issues and I don't know if they can go and win the league. Also the Europa league takes a lot out of Prem teams, Thurs and Sunday make it tough on the Prem schedule, especially when Champions League you can sometimes play Tues/Sat/Sun and get a bit more time to prepare in the league. Secondly Europa away games can be a bit further out Eastern Europe and all the way out to Turkey as well so it's a longer trip. I don't think Arsenal are going to like it as much. Though if they get far enough they might do a United and win the thing because they certainly have the players to do it. I just think it'll impact their league games a bit.

Time will tell. Premier League is a big step up from the Eredivisie.
The Dutch journo I follow did say his speed was one of the things that could let him down.
------------------------
Hoedt bid accepted and he has agreed a 5yr deal worth 40k a week.
You will keep thinking that throughout the whole season untill you realise that he has scored around 15 goals
Would be nice if Athletico didn't want him.

Lol, little child. Chelsea will fine the shit out of him.
I mean if Atletico can't sign anyone new before January, how does he think this will happen.

Look forward to the impending transfer saga involving Liverpool next summer.
They beated the Champions already. Burnley on fire!!
Can't see Liverpool wanting any of our players for a while now. Given how much a mess the Van Dijk shit is.
Apparently they all hate Barcelona on Mallorca except for Tony Nadal...

Probably this http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=246327496&highlight=#post246327496
You know how it is in review threads. No one, especially the mods, can be arsed with pages of complaining and trolling around any review that gives a game 7~7.5 out of 10.
Anyway, a blessing in disguise. Liverpool are going to sell Coutinho within the next few days and this thread will be toxic for any Liverpool fan ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Often, yeah. I don't tend to post in too many. I think as I'm getting older I'm just getting more cynical, grouchy and I hate everything anyway ¯\_(ツ
_/¯As we're in the football OT, I do have to say, out of all the whining about reviews on the internet IGNs take on Football Manager a few years back now WAS legendary and DID deserve flak https://www.giantbomb.com/forums/ge...-single-worst-review-ever-written-ign-220881/
Basically, "this isn't FIFA or Pro Evo?... 2/10".

Yep, this review single handedly made me stop going to IGN or any other review site

IGN UK with dat 9.1.
I think it was a somewhat honest mistake. Reviewer assigned the game clearly had no interest in simulators, probably never played one before and it's doubtful if they even liked football. I mean, soccer.
It was still hilarious though.

As stated earlier, I would be so charged up if I were him. At this rate, all he has to do on his debut is connect a few passes and not score an own goal and he'll be deemed a success.

Oh that shit was hilarious. I remember back in the days of games magazines some of the reviews were killer, one especially for The Sims 2: IKEA pack. Little did we know that shit was the future of videogames.

Wasn't it the review thread for The Order 1886 that was the catalyst for the mass banning in the old footygaf.

The key things to #staysafe:
Let the mods do their thing and don't turn this into a place to bitch about them. Arguing about bans is how this place got killed last time.
Don't get personal with eachother.
Remember, we're here for football, and the shit bant that comes with it.
Not too hard but I just want us to survive, I don't have enough IRL friends to talk football with for this place to burn down ��
I don't think he's in the wrong. Why would he bother going back to the club that he's been told he's not wanted at? what's the point?
If you went into work and your boss told you they don't need you you're probably not going to turn up every day just to be humiliated.
the worse thing that will happen to him is they'll sue for breach of contract but he'll become a free agent. I would assume he's rich enough that it would be a mild inconvenience.
Yeah, I hope he adapts. He needs that
His decision making seems to be slow too
Lol
Hope that is the case

That's not the issue. The issue is he only wants to go back to Atletico Madrid who haven't yet made a decent offer and can't do transfers anyway. Plenty of other clubs who are interested. He expects Chelsea to let him go for free to Madrid.
Meanwhile Atletico are probably just waiting until Costa sets fire to the dressing room and then take him over for free.

Or nothing he could do will be good enough.

Costa is insane. On a really bad day hes probably planting a bomb somewhere.
