Meant to say quite. No one buying or selling and only about 3 and a bit weeks left. Will likely change no doubt. I’m sure prices has a big thing to do with it.

I dont understand u are not moving on anyone. But this subject has been talked to deathbin ur thread.

But it has been more quiet yeah in PL. But it is also good i think, pointless to splash money around.
LaLiga has been crazy this time
 
I think it is because there is that much money in the PL.

Marcel Brands from Everton said it once. There's a lot of money to invest, but the risk is so much bigger. Thus you can't just splash the cash on people, but have to be even more careful with your transfers, because if they fail, you lose 30M or whatever.

Not that far away luckily. I like that when season starts all this transfer bullshit is out of the way. Good thing PL clubs dont use release clauses or we would be drained empty.


Btw Mike.
Would it be okey to have additional thread from PL footy? Somekind of thread where we can talk about other leagues and hint out if some good games are there or scandals? Or unite it with this one?
I know this is English side of footy, but the main core of people are talking here and even the CL thread is empty most of the time or speaken somewhere here.

Newcastle defo going down the other two could be either Villa/brighton/Sheff. Top 4 will be unchanged for the top 3, I think Arsenal with Emery in his 2nd season might pip Utd and Chelsea for 4th.
 
I dont know whats worse. Utd spending a near world record fee on Maguire or Leicester turning around and spending 45mill on Lewis Dunk. Has to be the latter.

Tbh it’s only 60m upfront if it ends up being 80 he and us will be having a good season.

I think Arsenal are fast ending themselves as a top 6 club under Kroenke mate personally Who's only interested in turning a profit.

Chelsea and Utd are in a constant malaise, but at least they will spend (the current transfer ban at Chelsea aside), to stay somewhat relevant.

Arsenal refuse to even do that with a squad that's a horrible mess.

Great to be so settled with a top squad, and football club in general, to be able to wait the market out, dead calm and with no panic, until the players we want fall to the prices we value them at rather than desperately having to over pay for decent, but nowhere near the level of significant upgrade for the fee, players now huh d?

A complete role reversal from much of the PL era.

I like this side way better. ;)

I'll revisit this toward the end of the window but I only see City, L'pool and Tottenham as certs for the top 4 as I type. And by some distance. I'd more lean on 4th being a battle between Chelsea and Utd, with Arsenal having all on to stay in the top 6 even with Leicester and Wolves in particular threatening to break in there. But with all three of those clubs in a constant state of flux, any of them could equally get 4th, or drop out the top 6.

Relegation wise, you have to start with the promoted clubs as always. With Burnley, Brighton and Newcastle in the mix. Three form those 6.

I'd completely missed that so had a mooch in incredulous surprise.

You're a little off mate. Villa have paid £20 million potentially rising to £26.5 M based on appearance clauses.

Newcastle United can now announce that Steve Bruce has been appointed as the club's new head coach.

Rio was worth every penny though hated that he played for Utd the original VVD he was ****** rolls royce of a player. Best CB in premier league history for me.
