^ But really, if Hamilton leaves Merc, what are his options if not Ferrari? Which btw, doesn't have a drive open with Sainz going in. Then again if he goes home to McLaren to help the team out, that would be sweet. He's not gonna break or set any records tho.

Bayern is a good move for Sane if it definitely comes off. He needs regular football after being out for so long, it’s probably good for him to be in his home country, I suppose playing in Germany gives him a better chance to get in the national team too.
Which was weird. I think he was playing a decent number of fixtures that time and playing them well when he was rejected from the national team. |

 best of luck, everyone! Nice. Lol. I didn't realize that it would be today. Felt like it was gonna be for another two weeks or so.. And looking at these matches... It feels like most of them could end in a draw (and some away wins). No home crowd, less concentration cos Rona. |

Love it, well done Mourinho. It's probably a bit of a shot at some of the lower table teams who are trying every trick in the book to not finish the season. Nah, it's a shot at the crybaby primadonna players who've said they don't want to play during the crisis. Most of them seem to be bigger names. Some of the shitter teams are being difficult though: https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/premier-league-season-news-meeting-18254928Premier League captains accused of using their agenda in Project Restart meeting
Premier League managers and players are getting frustrated with certain clubs said to be using their agenda to halt progress in restart talks. If it gets to a point where the majority of teams have agreed to proceed and certain clubs are holding back they should just give them the dates when to start and if they don't want to play then fuck em and they just lose points if they don't play the matches. I'm sure clubs would turn their attitudes then. Yup. Drop the hammer and let the clubs take it or leave it. Pretty sure they'll take it. Lolol. Anyway, how's Klopp? I don't think I heard anything from him during the EPL lock down. He's prolly pacing back and forth at home, gritting his teeth, growling like how Klopp goes being like Klopp.  |

Aiming for. I'd be surprised if they get things going within a month. It doesn't seem plausible. There's just far too many complications and complaints from teams and if/when they announce how the games will precede then you'll get teams complaining about whatever they've proposed. Even if the matches go ahead in the correct stadiums I'm sure some teams will complain about lack of fans or some other bullshit excuses as to why they're losing.
I think the English FA just needs to look for the best possible way to get league resumed and the best locations for them to be played, And worry less about teams complaining, we've seen larger fractions of the teams complained about the Christmas to New Year crazy fixtures, nothing has changed about that either. But they have to have all the teams on board for the restart or there could be lawsuits. It's a little different between Christmas fixtures and what we have now as it's not something they agreed to or what was in place at the start of the season. It's like changing the deal half way though. Teams are allowed to complain/protest about the compacted Christmas fixtures but if they agree to it before the season starts then there's nothing they can do. Moving the goalposts as they say is much different. If games get the go-ahead and the only difference is there's no fans and no other changes to the rules I don't think teams will have any legal right to complain, and if relegated teams do complain or try take legal action it will be very petty and shameful of them. Sooo with everyhing going on now and seeing how hard the restart is turning out to be, is it now more plausible that the EPL finishes as is, declare LFC the champions, relegate the bottom three? What do you think? |

^ So if Verstappen did leave for Merc cos let's say Hamilton did retire, who replaces Verstappen at RBR? Albion then promote one of the Toro Rosso drivers? I find that highly unlikely. It has to be a Vettel home coming.

Bet on it 😂😂 i think tomorrow are officially that Vettel and Sainz change the Team 😉.
And normally RBR relies on young drivers!?
Vettel is the special one.  But I think you would win the bet if we did it. So... Reading LTU's post, Leclerc will be the dude at Ferrari and what now for Hamilton? Retirement? Ooooo I think so. Verstappen gets his seat. *Still crossing fingers for Vettel home coming* Edit: It could also be: Hamilton home coming to help the team. OMG YES PLEASE!!! |

The only explanation I can come up with is that SWC hates money. But I refuse to believe that that's the reason. Please help me understand, the decision is mind boggling to me. It's $200 bucks man, every other site, regardless how small they are, runs them!
Same, for the low stakes they got rid of the 100 chip turbo rebuy which almost always managed to cover the guarantee and at first they made up that they had a special event for the weekend to replace it but seems it's permanently gone and there aren't any other tournaments in that time slot. I asked around in the lobby chat and at least got a response there from @twitch instead of the silent treatment here, though he only said it's on hiatus. Also according to some regs, rebuys are broken but the 500 and 1000 chip rebuys still run (but draw in a smaller crowd than the 100 chip!), not to mention a few rebuys in the quarantine series so idk about that. I think the guys at SWC should seriously consider building their poker economy from the ground up. Like the BBJ for example.. They could start it at stakes equivalent to 25NL and limit it up to the 100NL equivalent tables. For stakes equivalent to 5NL - 10NL, they could start a krill promo. They could even have table starter promos if they wanted to. Anything to start the action. |

^ I think the devs or whoever should go for more scientific sounding names like 'Nitrum Nebulus'. Sounds much more awesome imho. |

^ Which Dembele is Moussa again? They guy from Lyon or something? There's prolly like 4 or 5 active Dembeles in Europe right now. Lol.

^ Rofl. Brilliant! And the same for the fans. We can have packed stadiums again! Edit: Wait... Is that real? Are they really using it at practice? Edit: I'd like to see Alex Ferguson in one of those. Lolol. |

^ Lel. I don't think Vettel will ever move to McLaren unless it was double his salary. He's always been a winner at heart and I bet he's dyyiing to get another championship under his belt. It would've been sweet for him if he did it with Ferrari. Anyway.. Anybody wanna bet against me? I say Vettel goes back to RBR next season. My 10 for your 30. But if he takes a sabbatical, the bet is off. I don't think that RBR will Vettel back, that's very difficult when you have two alpha racer in the team, i think that's not what helmut marko and christian horner want. But for the fans it can be good, like Prost and Senna at McLaren Honda or Hamilton and Rosberg✌ You wanna bet on it then? And no... I think the cancellation of some races this year could've activated a clause on Verstappen's contract under technicality, making him eligible to transfer to another team. What would be good for fans really would be a home coming for Vettel imo. |

5) Aubameyang to Manchester United for $25 million, this is a surprise transfer and it can definitely take place.
I was thinking about this a couple of days ago, and this could be a top transfer. all would be a win-win. Shanghai Shenhua expect Odion Ighalo to return from his loan and Aubameyang can be the best replacement. Also, the serious competition to Martial Aubameyang to Manchester United would be a complete waste, maybe if he went to Spain. But what's wrong with Arsenal? Why can't they put up priorities to makes sure Aubameyang stays? He's the only brilliant forward in the team who can guarantee 20+ goals a season. He prolly doesn't want to stay... He was quoted saying that before his grandpa died, he promised his gramps that he would play for Real Madrid. Lolol. How's that for a come and get me plea. |

Good news to see that we will almost certainly see PL football return in the near future. I’ve missed the games so much, I will warm up by watching the Bundesliga Lol.. It's decent league tho if you get attached and know the players, the managers and the whole drama going on over there. I watch it every now and then but if I had to reeaally follow another league... It'd be the Championship. |

^ ^ Loving the line for Michael Johnson vs Thiago Moises at 1.90. He was really good back in the day when he started. Moises could be an easy match up for him imo.

Heh... Just heard the news too. And I was so excited in coming here thinking I was gonna tell eveeybody about it first. I think it's gonna be, Vettel back to RBR, Verstappen to Merc, Hamilton to Ferrari. Dunno. Edit: Is there a clause in Verstappen's contract? |

I wonder how will it affect the transfer market and the actual contracts.
Imagine for example the Coutinho case. What if he leaves Bayern in the summer transfer market? There are many similar cases, players' contracts running out, players wanting to move between clubs, clubs deciding who to buy based on their CL performances and prize money etc.
If they are postponing the CL, they should postpone the start of the transfer market as well. Otherwise, some of the decisions (Coutinho as a perfect example) might be weird.
Imagine if Chelsea buys Coutinho, he would end up playing one leg for Bayern and another one for Chelsea. Quite bizarre.
Pretty sure UEFA will amend the rules given the current situation. I don't think the clubs would even think about forcing the issue. |

We don't know but is very strange for a player who lives like 2 hours away from Turin. We got some rumors about possible interest from Newcastle on him, Juventus got him for free 6 months ago +10m € for fees. I think if they can have Pogba they can let him leave for 25m. Lolol. Like how they said Pep met with the Juve brass and a move to the Italian side was 'inevitable'? Journos man... Guardiola was a deal done and for some reason, it has not happened, too many strange things that happened with Sarri in Juventus after he came that makes me think more and more about it. Keep also is mind there was one of his friends who live in Barca that confirmed the story, shortly after the start of the season. As I said last year 6 months before the UEFA the rumor was. Guardiola goes to Juve with a deal done if UEFA will penalize City.
The penalty should be 2 years.Guess what? 2 Years ban. Not fault of Guardiola or Juventus if UEFA took 8 months for the sentence and not the usual 2. Lets see what will happen if Sarri will lose everything and City will be punished but it will be hard this year with COVID. As I said... No. Pep will never disrespect Ferran Soriano and Txiki Begiristain by moving to another club before his contract ends at City at 2021. I think he's gonna take another sabbatical after his current contract tho. So Juve would have to wait a while longer. |

^ You guys forget the buyer is from a wealthy family of Saudi oilers. I think even related to the Saudi oilers that bought City.
Newcastle could be at top 4 within 6 transfer windows
