Why would they sell their second best player though? And on for an obvious, easy PL title win.

No, you won't get 50 million now, from 1st jan, players out out of contract in the summer can talk to other leagues and agree pre-contracts on free transfer. That's what Mbappe did to PSG. It basically means that players can get a big sign on bonus

I don’t mind where he plays 
He’s one of my favourite players to watch so I will simply watch him for Real Madrid 
I’ve loved brilliant passera since I was raised on Glen Hoddle and Tony Currie
Good timing !

Rooney sacked !
He agreed to leave by mutual consent.
So the club wouldnt have to pay him compensation...The game needs more people like Rooney.

Talksport were discussing the situation this morning 
The general consensus was that Rooney should have had someone specifically with experience of the Championship by his side - maybe someone like Neil Kinnock

Old firm games are so much worse since they banned away fans though 
Thankfully I have some very angry Celtic fans in my local pub making up for it
Watching in delay so Rangers still 1:0 up but this had been one of the best games I’ve seen this season 
Surprised by the technical ability on show
What a day for Rangers! 
Love the Old Firm, always so much chaotic energy on display

I bloody hate watching Newcastle kick and elbow opponents time after time AND without being punished 
Serial thug Joelinton crashed into the side of Porro putting him out of action for a few minutes- no yellow
Soon after he chased the young midfielder Berkaval down , clattering into him and elbowing him in the temple ( fcuking dangerous) - ref right behind but waved play on no yellow !
He should have had two red cards !!
Then the two Newcastle CBs got away with murder and handballs

It’s actually spoiling football for millions of guys … we should matter at the end of the day as its the vast majority of guys who are paying for the Sky Sports / TNT sports subscriptions 
Just check X after any live game and search for the names of the woman/ women who just featured on that game ..
How would you feel if you had paid £20 to see your precious Katy Taylor fight and the expert pundit was Rylan  ?
“‘You can see it happening before it happens because you know he’s on a yellow card and he’s gonna get sent off here …. Its after play resumes you can see it a mile off , he’s trying to stop Tsimikas , he’s on a high , he’s had a fantastic game , its a late challenge, yes it’s a yellow card - it doesn’t get given then ironically he goes onto score the winner !”
Thats her waffling on about a yellow card that wasn’t given to Bergvall .
It’s absolute bollox and has no place in the  mens game .

He’s arguably better qualified to being a boxing pundit than Izzy Christiansen is a top level football pundit for men’s football- given she is a woman who played around 130 first team games ( including substitute appearances) over 15 seasons at a ridiculously poor level !!
Peterboro are being brutalised by Everton as we speak 
The reffing is abysmal as per usual 
In the dying seconds the Peterboro CF had broke through the defence and was just about to shoot when the vastly overrated Branthwaite clearly pushed him off balance the moment he shot ( wide). .. how is that not a penalty ?
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250109/6758a8206d7bc22e1b52edbb44773013.jpg
Then a few minutes ago the Everton RB chased down the Peterboro winger who stopped on the line then the Everton guy just shoulder barged him in the face pushing him clear off the pitch - he lay motionless for a few seconds !!
How are the officials missing dangerous play like this ?

Both are on the bench still 
Everton have made 4 subs
Peterboro have made 3 subs
Knowing Ashley Young was one of his dad’s favourite united players I think he may put Young Jnr on later if Ashley gets on next ( last sub)

Ashley Young comes on last sub
Fergie’s son didn’t make Ashley’s dream come true . Alex may not be so happy
Blimey 
Tielemans acting like crazy guy in the opening moments !!
Grabs and bear hugs Paqueta at a throw in .. gets a lecture from the ref .. then leaves something on him in a tackle from behind .. unsurprisingly the ref ignores the assault
Fergie’s son didn’t make Ashley’s dream come true . Alex may not be so happy
Apparently one of Everton’s players had a go at Ferguson after the final whistle
Great assist and fantastic goal for the Hammers .. pleased for Potter !
Lucas Paquetá started brilliantly 
Had a marvellous long shot from him in the opening seconds then scored a real nice goal 
Shame he will get no protection from the ref against Villa’s hatchet men .. Cash in particular
Lucas Paquetá is getting a battering tonight 
No protection at all from the ref
Fulkrug injury a disaster though, we can't rely on bloody Ings for too long

Tamworth with the better chances, crazy.
The ref has given the Spurs flair players zero protection today .. he’s missed some diabolical fouls on Maddison in particular 
Potential leg breaker - Maddison left on the ground in agony — just play on said the ref
Surely the refs must know that the small teams have to be over physical to compete.
They can’t just let them batter the better teams though

Spurs just looked pretty uninterested tbh. They weren't up for it and took Tamworth for granted. Still, they got through in the end and i guess that's all that matters at the end of the day.

Dreadful from Arsenal.  Where do I begin.
The team is just not playing well and its time to start to look at the manager.  I hate our tactics.  Two years ago Arsenal played a brand of football that fast attacking etc.  Where has that football gone?  The managers the same and most of the players are still there but that fast attacking football is a distant memory.
I get it though.  In buying Rice etc Arteta wanted more control in games and not the 100 MPH football  that had us on top of the Premier league for  200 and goodness knows how many game.  Its not working though.  If I was to list Arsenals players of the season, other than Saka, and naming all defenders.
Artetas ego stops him from  playing a player like Keiron Tierney but he put in one of the best balla of the game.  However, he sadly has no future at Arsenal.  Why????
This is Artetas club.  There are rumblings that Edu left cuz he didn't like the amount of power Arteta had.
Newcastle in the week showed Arsenal what they lack.  The two goal scorers - Isak and Gordon would walk in the Arsenal team.  How can we be saying that after five years that teams below Arsenal have he players they need.
Arsenal are not Mikel Artetas little project any more.  We're into the sixth year.  Its his team and he needs to go and, in this transfer window,. get whatever he feels he needs to finish the season strong.  We all know he wont,.  With Arsenal out of two cups and unlikely to win the Champions League, Artetas got to win the league and I dont think he will.
He needs to step to it cuz all the major contracts are up in 2027 - Saliba, Saka, Odergaard etc all up in two years.  He heeds to win something big soon but with Atetas attitude and ego I dont think he will
GiRTh
12-01-2025, 08:03 PM
BTW I'm not saying sack Arteta I just want him to put his ego to one side and do whats best for the team
If Arsenal played this season the way they did 2 years ago, they would probably win the league, but obviously they won't. He has removed what was the real engine room of the team
Maybe the injury to Jesus will finally force Arsenal to buy a CF now !!??!
Saka is out for a while

Man City have just signed Omar Marmoush and he is a player a lot of pundits think would suit Arsenal.  Arsenal havent even made a bid that anyone knows of

they won't win the league this season, with or without a new striker and there is just no way it makes financial sense to spend 150m on a player that realistically is worth half of that

Same at most weekends ..
The radio host will suddenly say something like well Arsenal just kicked off against Spurs , we have a fabulous game in prospect.. . I start looking around worrying I’ve messed up and nearly missed the game … then they list the women team sheets ..
Or they say Liverpool have gone one up after 5 minutes and I’m panicking again until they say Debbie Done scored the goal..
They should make it real clear that it’s women’s football being discussed

What a performance from Bournemouth !!
As usual Newcastle and in particular Joelinton got away with near murder again .. bit somehow injury hit Bournemouth played one of the best games of the season to end Newcastle’s winning streak .
Fabulous performance from young Kluivert and his third goal was spectacular 
Edit 
Sadly I had to ( again) mute the TNT commentary as Lucy Ward just never stops talking - thankfully I was able to do what thousands did and synced with the Talksport live commentary

ManU v ManC ladies game
This is the standard now so can you even imagine what the football was like 15 years ago when all these bogus female expert pundits were plying their trade !!
Lucy Ward played around 135 times including sub appearances over 15 seasons ( 9 games per season on average) yet she is commentating or analysing most of our men’s games on telly !
It’s absolutely bizarre
Sounds like Rashford has made a Uturn and wants to stay and fight for a starting place !
Even in for extra training  !!!!
Interesting rumours for this window 
Matheus Cunha to Arsenal  !!
Liam Delap to Spurs !

They play in a few minutes - very early kick off ..

Come on PSG !!!
Hope this ref is strong and doesn’t let Villa kick them from pillar to post
Beautiful !!
1 : 0 to PSG
Fabulous 10 minutes of open play by both teams 
Then Digne elbowed their RB in the head- missed by all officials and VAR
As things turned out he was just getting to his feet ( upfield) and was able to get on the end of a loose ball in Villa’s box to score 
Karma baby
Well Villa 4:1 down on aggregate have nothing to lose now - they have to bomb forward hoping they don’t get picked off ..
PSG play dream like football.. amazing front 3/4 and fabulous midfield players oozing skill and class on the ball
PSG 2:0
!!
Another cynical foul to take out the PSG winger on the half way line .. thankfully they carried on from that and scored ..
5:1 on aggregate
PSG remind me of the old Barca side the way they play …
Only the current Barca side can live with this PSG team … The current Barca side are also in form and playing fabulous football but are a bit more direct than PSG
Villa get one back
A fluky own goal 
They all count though I would change the rules so fluky own goals count as 0.5 of a goal
McGinn is such a thug 
What an embarrassment 
Shame he has to cheat as he’s a decent player
Interestingly I find this continuous drumming less distracting than the co commentary of Lucy Ward who is isn’t on tonight thankfully
Brutal first half .. Villa are committed …
I noticed three PSG players limping off at half time..
This damn ref is too soft
Goal for Villa 
Another deflection but its 2:2 on the night 
3:5 aggregate
Goal for Villa

PSG need to get Doué on pronto
I wouldn’t have taken Barcola off 
He’s been looking extremely dangerous
Next goal the winner ??
Villa were looking tired before they scored 
I reckon one more goal for PSG will kill off Villa
Blimey
Villa take off their two midfield hatchet men
They are gonna gonna go for it !!
It would be incredible if Villa can take this to ET
Amazing player - Vitinha is the player Rico Lewis thinks he is - but isn’t
Phew 
Both Barca and PSG go through 
Hopefully that’s the final pairing
It would be incredible if Villa can take this to ET
Can you imagine them kicking their way to the final ..
No thanks 
Fans want to see good football not cage fighters kicking anything that moves
Both Villa fullbacks got away with murder tonight
Someone on TalkSport are suggesting that Villa played the Europa League theme rather than the Champions League theme !!!
So with both Barca snd and PSG both just scraping through tonight that SHOULD be a massive warning to Arsenal !!
WTF happened to Palace tonight ??
Newcastle looking good for top 5 and Champions League …
How embarrassing to have them representing England whilst kicking anything and everything that moves ( or doesn’t)
