Vacamion Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 My favourite thing about the "Where's Messi going?" speculation is people posting mock ups of him in a kit for Bristol Rovers, Altrincham, East Fife, etc. I love it when people do that.

I know there are legal reasons for this but I'm still amused at the image of Messi sending a fax (ovbiously he'd have people to do it but that ruins the image I have). Is it a plan to remove the board? Them or me? There's been considerable discord between Directors and players/other levels at the club for some time. I love it. Rummaging through a cluttered cupboard to find a yellowed, old fax machine, dusting it off, plugging it in and realising the ink's dried out. Driving round town looking for an Office World or Rymans that hasn't yet become a pound shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 Wonder if Mahrez will push for a move if Man City sign Messi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 (edited) Obviously the fax machine Messi used wasn't the one we used in the Silva deal, otherwise it would have arrived in October. Why do Everton continually buy midfielders? Spend the 30m that you're spending on James Rodriguez (wages and transfer fee) and sign a better goalkeeper, Pickford is awful and costs them points every couple of weeks. Buy a bloody striker too, then you might actually finish near the top 6. Edited 26 August 2020 by Leicester_Loyal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Nacho Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 Don’t understand all the hype around Rodriguez going to Everton. He’s not done anything since 2014. If he was that good he wouldn’t be going Everton. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bear Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 Rodriguez is on about £200k per week as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UniFox21 Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 Last thing any relation of Maguire should be doing is commenting on stuff like this. Any random comment can be used and shaped to suit a defence or the prosecution. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UniFox21 Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 Am i missing something as to how important Maguire is to England or United? England should've dropped him initially, now United are playing legal gymnastics to give any way for him to stay captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It became the cosy boys club, with Jeff starting to believe his own hype and the those three becoming more and more found out with their lack of knowledge and research. Would love a UCL goals show type panel, though we know that'll never happen.

RowlattsFox Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 I don't watch as much as soccer Saturday as I used to but from what I saw they chopped and changed a lot last season, rarely were the 4 regulars all on. Probably did need freshening up, and will probably have a female/BAME panellist each week, which is fine as long as they are a half decent communicator. It's probably a harder job than it looks. Surprising Merson is staying but maybe he costs less in expenses or something. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather listen to someone that that has played at the top level & experienced the same pressures as the games they are talking about, as opposed to someone that has played in front of Conference level attendances and that are there to fill a quota.
