This is the stuff of nightmares for Big Sam and Pulis.

It is shocking and frankly a disgrace that a professional manager can seemingly ignore such a vital part of the sport!

61 years ago today, football lost some talented sons. 

RIP Busby Babes,

Considering the goal scorer and the “controversy” over the goal I have to wonder if @samhardy saw the final minutes of this match or whether he was being escorted out the ground 🤔

Chelsea's manager is absolutely clueless.

[Foxy]

Chelsea needs a proper manager and I know just the man.

Scholes taking the reins at Oldham! Thoughts?

Shouldn't be allowed to take it in a million years.

He should have to sell his “investment” in Salford before he took over.

I bet Jose is willing him to fail.

I know it may sound silly, but he’d have been better off taking over at a bigger club. I can’t see what he’ll bring to a lower league side tbh. Saying that, I hope he does well!

Guaranteed!!

I wonder how many youngsters United will send there on loan! Lampard and Gerrard have had a helping hand from their former clubs in that department iirc

They seem to be offering ridiculous wages in Italy at the moment. I think Emre Can left Liverpool as we wouldn’t match their offer too.

Ramsey will only be available for about 2 weeks of the season anyway!

It's madness, but it's why free transfers are never free. The player almost always gets inflated wages due to no transfer fee.

That and he wanted first team guaranteed apparently, I'm a big fan of Can but we've hardly missed him.

What’s Ramsey worth a week, £150k say, tops! So essentially Juventus are paying him £83.2m! for his four year contract. If he signed for what he’s worth which is £150k? They’d have paid £31.2m in wages over the four years. So really they’ve paid a transfer fee of £52m for an injury prone Aaron Ramsey. Madness!

Ever wonder what the value of some of the players you grew up enjoying would be in the modern day?

Shearer? Gazza? Hoddle?

110k at Arsenal apparently and he wanted £220k, ends up with £400k 😯

[1759]

I think maybe Juventus are using this technique to avoid having to over pay on transfer fees but as @Nucleus has pointed out it doesn’t seem to add up in the case of Ramsey.

[Ashez]

Juve have always done brilliantly on free agents though tbf

[samhardy]

😂 😂 😂

[Nucleus]

What an intense match that was! fantastic performance from the lads, a little unlucky at times but I’m glad we’ve got the win against a resilient Yeovil side 😛

Atleast you pulled it back...

Im guessing this is relevant to tonights game.
