Very concerning that clubs incentivized to work together to comply with the rules are working together to comply with the rules
Genuinely confused – what’s the difference between selling each other players where each team benefits from the new player , and this illegal swap? Elevated valuations? Or is it just subjective to the governing body that already struggles with enforcing pretty clear rules?
What a fucking farce of a League this is mate!
“You need to sell players so you don’t breach our rules”
“Okay”
“Not him though, and not to them and not for that much”
Fucking disgrace.
Where was the letters warning teams about trying to take advantage of other Club’s in their League by bidding embarrassing amounts of money for a player because you think they needed to get rid by the 31st like United did with us bidding 30 odd mil for Brainthwaite when we said we want 70 and after we rightly tell you to fuck off you go to the Prem crying about it because you thought we had to sell and we didn’t.
Where was the letters when Chelsea got around the rules by selling buildings that they own to themselves?
Well yes, anyone could see these types of deals happening a mile off. Obviously clubs but and sell lots of players, arsenal – Chelsea do loads of deals together. I think what’s caught their eye is these deals are literally just swapping academy players for money in the coffers.
Bit slow on the uptake there but gg guys
You gotta wonder what the fuck are the lawyers for the PL are getting paid for. If the teams lawyers are finding loophole after loophole how are the league’s lawyers not catching this before it happens.
Got to say, I’m torn on this.
On the one hand, it *was* pretty obvious, on the other I’m not sure I’m comfy with the Pl saying “ney, enough of that” within the same window before there’s a chance to determine fair value.
After all, there must have been some incentive for the players to take the moves, such as a potential pathway, and the transfer market is effectively a carousel anyway.
The problem seems to PSR itself – again.
Boo hoo. Fuck that hit Chelsea
What can they do though, they set these rules, they want teams to sell players and then complain when it is not the right type of sale.
I can’t even be too mad at them for that because what do you expect. People are just scrabbling to offload players left and right so they don’t get point deductions and fines.
But I think at the end of the day, the issue I mostly have is with the inflated price of players. And people getting paid way, way, way above their value. I mean caicedo was WAY too expensive for his impact as a holding midfielder. I mean seriously. 100 mil? For some these players? It’s ridiculous.
