I really miss Pro Evo, everything in EA FC is so overcomplicated. Feels like if you're not holding at least three buttons all the time you're doing it wrong.

I'd forgotten that Pro Evo just made up their own names for positions. SB? Was that Side Back?

Still weird we signed PES legend Park Chu-young. If you signed him on PES5 he could score from nearly everywhere. Shame he couldn't do that in real life. Holy shit reading that name just unlocked some dormant part in my brain. Some player

Not a patch on Adriano in 6 though. Absolutely unstoppable.

Adriano absolutely the most busted player in any footie game for sure.
Fuck now I'm mad about what they've done to PES again.

I've still got 21. Which was decent enough. Dunno if there's an OF for it now or not...

He is really highly rated, I'm pretty sure he will go to real instead though as they want him too.

Enzo Fernandez was taped saying racist things about French players, Fofana posted it, gets racist things said about him.

Racist responses on social media are par for the course. I'd be more surprised if the comments weren't filled with racism.
The translation of the song in the video is _bad_. Guardian reporting that lots of the French Chelsea players have unfollowed him on social media. Chelsea opened a "probe" into it. What a fucking idiot. If Chelsea have any integrity they'll dismiss him.

Enzo's posted an apology on social media. The club will do everything in their power not to get rid of their hundred million, 7 year contracted asset so I expect with the apology out, there will prob be some declaration that he's apologised to teammates in person, promised to learn from it etc and then just move on. It's the last thing Chelsea wanted, they just can't seem to shake themselves clear of the racist tag. I'm just glad Martinez and Garnacho weren't on the video or we'd have the same headache.

I'm guessing Man Utd don't really have to worry about PSR.

Bemused at Nicolas Jackson coming out in support of Fernandez, but it's his prerogative.

Just find another official toilet paper supplier. Or have the Ineos Grenadier as official team car.

Maybe we sold our club shop to ourselves for a billion like some other teams would.

A bit of a Richard Pryor and Wallace from The Wire crossover.

I did say the talk of 50m and less was absolute nonsense. I think I said I expected is to have somewhere in the region of 120m before sales and I think that's likely what it will be in net terms this summer. As always with United if you listen to everything put out there, you hear nothing. Some ridiculous amount of pure shite put out

Assuming we get Yoro over the line we will have 3 of the top 10 nominees for the golden boy award in the squad.
2 quite exciting transfers so far, which is nice to see.

Know it's pre season but that was shocking from Royale.
Levy should just be happy someone wants him and sell rather than trying to get an extra 10m.

Obviously I've never seen a single minute of him pay but very encouraging for everything that it signals.
1. Not paying the branthwaite fee - that's nothing against Everton or the player but rather a comment on how we would have, under previous regimes attempted to haggle all summer before eventually paying 80m And
2. That we can actually pursue multiple targets now. We might actually be taken a little more seriously at the negotiation table
3. We actually beat other big teams and Madrid to the signing of a highly rated player on the up which outside the academy I can't remember us doing in recent years

I think a big part of that is Real have spent an outrageous amount on getting Mbappe in and have bigger areas that require some attention.
