The following definition might help you, (not my words): "If you are patronizing, you tend to speak down to others, acting as though you are smarter, classier, or just plain better than anyone else" Stop crying you clown. Ridiculous attention seeking posts annoy me and plenty of others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudkin must have some side hustle. I think he’s trying to recruit a bank teller and demolition guy. Might be how we can afford future signings if our P/L margin doesn’t return to positive in the next year or two.

That is why I doubt any approach. The club will target the affordable . Pereira, who is affordable, is slipping away so if it is going to happen at all then Madueke seems a possible option but we had better be quick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’d still be accumulating debt… ...that is true...but so long as the owners can cover the outlay then it is not a bad situation to be!!! Spending £30m to cover a purchase could net £50m at the end of the season. It is going to be difficult this coming season, and if everyone is investing we need to do the same.

But if there’s a tiny window we can exploit I hope they take the plunge I think they also understood that a period of investments was needed to make us financially stable. they did also go on record as saying their intention was for us to be financially self sufficient. They are not like some ownsers that suck money out of the club they own as a form of income. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever a Man City, Chelsea fans says our success will always be sweeter because we have done it in the right way since we returned to the PL. I love the fact we have won the PL and FA Cup without throwing money around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc_forever Posted 18 August 2021 Share Posted 18 August 2021 16 minutes ago, whoareyaaa said: Maybe he wants to stay in Italy can't see this happening at all Coutinho or Madukewe more likely Romano has said Berardi is open to a move to Leicester, and he's obviously clued into this. When we won the title, he posted a supportive social media comment so appears he's positively disposed to us. We're the type of club that would suit Berardi as he's appeared reluctant previously to go to higher profile teams, hence why's he stayed at Sassuolo for so long. However, as another poster said, it's going to take a big fee or a commitment to a big fee to prise him away following the departure of Locatelli.

trickytrevbenjamin Posted 18 August 2021 Share Posted 18 August 2021 https://www.getfootballnewsitaly.com/2021/domenico-berardi-drops-bombshell-wants-to-leave-sassuolo/ If he’s open to leaving Italy, hopefully we will try. An obligation to buy in 12 months is far more common in Italy and would suit us. Can’t see him going Fiorentina. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for some reason the offer of players only ever seems to work if you’re a huge club…. Might worth it though, like I said Praet was regarded one of the better players in Italy. One thing to mention is I was speaking to my mate who lives in France, who worryingly said he doesn’t rate Soumare….

To me kdh is more exciting Based on bit parts against Man City in the Community Shield, and against Wolves on Saturday - it looks to me like Soumaré needs a little bit of time to get used to the pace of English football. I've absolutely no doubt it will come though. For Lille, he reminded me of a much better Abdoulaye Doucouré. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
