YA’LL STILL WANT THIS DUDE?

Even with Nasser’s watchful eyes peeled on him with a fierce Arabian vengeance? He’ll do everything in his power to not let anybody get their hands on his Llotin Star.

PSG are putting together a winning project and are reportedly on the verge of signing Paul Pogba from Man Utd. What is the incentive for Mbappe to come here? Insane case scenario, Mbappe, Ronaldo and Goretzka all run down their contracts and we sign all 3 for free in 2022 and only have to spend 75 Mil (or whatever other hidden true amount BVB isn’t telling anyone) for Haaland. Now if you’re thinking “Where will they play?”....that’s not my problem. I’ll gladly let Ancelotti (If all goes well) or whomever our new coach will be next year figure that out.

GERMANY FLOODING

Keep the nation of Germany in your thoughts and prayers. A dangerous flood just ran through parts of the nation, destroying many homes, roads etc.

ALAB4, AL4BA whichever sells...

Well that was fast, Alaba is our new #4. All the best to him. I hope he can make the next 4 years a memorable one for the team, the fans and the club as a whole.

INTRODUCING THE “EURO TAX”

Otherwise known as the “Spinazzola Tax”. Use this for those players who get hyped beyond the performances of their previous season during an international tournament because the media doesn’t do research and only runs on hype. Getting their opinions from twitter. The “Kante Tax” is in the works according to reports.
