All it means in reality is that Dmitry Rybolovlev will have to double the wages of his players, considering his net worth is over $9M he's more than capable of doing that if he really wants to.

Pretty sure it's more than 9 million

EDIT: Fuck your ninja edit, Franck

So with Moyes leaving, who should the team attempt to go after? Laudrap? Klopp?

Laudrup would be an interesting choice, but given his desire to lead Swansea through a European campaign he's probably not too keen to jump ship.

Klopp?

If Kenwright is still owner at the end of the season then you guys would do well to get Martinez, a guy who can work with limited funds.
His reported lack of defensive nous shouldn't be too much of a problem at Everton, where there's the likes of Jagielka and Baines.

Top Four Cup

(I'm pretty sure it's an editor bug, but this competition was supposed to feature the top four sides for the recently concluded league season; however, this edition featured those sides that of the season before.)

Playing on the counter over both legs, it worked out perfectly.

So this is definitely Mbarga's last title at Eleven Wise, a good send-off.

Preseason

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/cbyv4iZBRydcHudUd4jTcQ4Zq8xi1mKyxEU9iuPx.png

The Al-Shabab match was supposed to be the highlight of this preseason, but their popularity seems to have been massively overestimated - only 51 people watched us lose 3-1, and we even had to pay them $26k for their troubles.

Transfers

$9 p/w is very good for a 19-year-old in my book, and he offers a legitimate wrong-footed option on the left flank.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/vJ1L8LuMojrjASd8pAkHsjBqS8FDQ69w2LiwLVex.png

Alex Tetteh was released at the end of last season, and that resulted in a relative lack of options for the second striker position. Otoo is his replacement, at least until I find a long-term signing.

And the next guy arrived from our youth academy:

Wakaso is an excellent prospect, and is probably a future captain as well.
His arrival will enable me to play a 4-5-1 more often too.

I can see this being Fergie's biggest ever move - giving up what's left of his career to get Mourinho.

He knows Mou wants his job, and the comments over the past few days probably forced his hand.

And Moyes is good, but not Utd good. Probably Arsenal good anyway, I'd want him.

We were equally as shit against you, not our fault you weren't even good enough to beat us.

That I have to agree, we should have won if not for Sagna's moment of madness.

Still, home game against Chelsea, not exactly the most minor of occasions.

Surely Sky could have picked better games than these two shitfests

The reverse fixtures were 2-2 and 3-2, iirc.

And yes while most of the teams involved have nothing much to play for, as if you could predict that these two matches would end up being 'shitfests'.
