January is tough and the WC will definitely change the dynamic but European based first team players are still going to be hard for any club to get. If there are some breakout stars in Qatar that are currently playing outside of Europe, they could be candidates for a January transfer.

But I do agree that this summer will likely be Newcastle's official arrival into transfer dominance. Especially if they get top 4 but even if they don't, I top 5 or 6 finish will still likely see them become much more attractive to talented players given the wages they could offer.

Partey should be in jail the way he hit that 4th goal today

NF is just plain bad. How Liverpool managed to lose to them is one of life's great mysteries.

I've posted on this a few times over the past couple years. A decision has finally been reached on what has to go down as one of the worst loan-to-buy deals ever. It's one thing to tie a mandatory fee to appearances or goals or something… it's so stupid to tie it to team goals like gaining promotion.

Edit: I suppose such a deal is basically saying "we'd like to buy him now but can't afford him, but we can afford him if we're promoted." But still. Such a bad deal. And really shady to try and use the Covid season to wriggle out of it.

Leeds United have lost their Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) case over the transfer of Jean-Kevin Augustin.

Leeds will have to pay the full fee agreed with RB Leipzig, €21million.

What a stupid foul by Cancelo. Just let him shoot.

My kids were wondering what Pep was saying to his assistant about the foul right afterwards. I am guessing they were words not taught in Spanish class.

When Arsenal does it - carded for simulation, when Spuds or City do it - penalty

Teed off? He caught him a tiny bit, but it didn't cause him to go down. There's contact, he steps, then goes down because he realizes he should.

Last season there was the 'no handball' at Goodison against City.

This season City get a pen for the dying Swan act from a slight breeze......

Not an equal number of games played but still pretty remarkable that right now only 6 points separate 9th from 20th.

I nearly posted this on the CL thread but decided against it… but now it seems appropriate:

I really really hope City and PSG draw each other. Don't care which one goes down - I'll just be happy knowing one of them will.

That defensive wall was placed 13-14 yards from the kicker. That's the reason the goal was scored. Taylor walked it off wrong.
