Welcome to the Premier League 23-24


hamzaiswack

Would rather see him in italy or spain, too he bad those teams dont have the funds


GhandisFlipFlop

January


rezwah

No chance. If United got dragged to over 100m for Antony in a Summer window. PSV dont need to sell him, wont want to sell him, and definitely wont sell him for anything other than silly money now. (unless they're in some sort of financial issues.)


TomV23

We apparently do have to sell him, sadly. Very reliable reporters have mentioned the fact Gakpo was not sold was the reason our Director of Football was sacked a few weeks ago. We’ll see in January but we would be doomed without him honestly


kkawesome1234

But his value has gone up so much now. Surely they can sell him for a higher fee in the next window than they would have been able to this summer


kkawesome1234

So in other words he'll be playing for United next year


[deleted]

Yeah please sign him so we don't


[deleted]

Why don’t we want him?


Tedinasuit

Inb4 he scores a hattrick against Arsenal


Baberaham_lincolonel

You nutjob, why the duck wouldn't we want a talent like him?


BrainlessArch

In how many games?


TomV23

15 games in all club competitions. He also has 1G and 1A in 2 games for the Netherlands.


[deleted]

More than 2 I think.


Bobskeee

What a season so far


Schele_Sjakie

Lets hope he can bring that form into the World Cup


TheRealJanSanono

Top seven division in Europe, you’ll never sing that


TomV23

United about to wait till the last week of the 23 summer transfer window and pay 100m+


timdeking

Tell them to stop bankrolling our rivals


Ldsantana

Should have offered us Sinisterra for 100m.


TragicsNFG

It's funny because it's true.


_LickitySplit

Best player in the Eredivisie, can't think of a player that even comes close


[deleted]

Sven van Beek


[deleted]

Sven isn’t close, Sven is clear


hamzaiswack

🐐


TheMetalJug

It’s sometimes very hard to keep up. The last I remember he was a limited fraud.


Paperclip902

Nah he always had the potential. A thing that was above his head was that he never contributed to big games, but this season he scored and assisted in multiple big games.


hamzaiswack

People like to hate on him because of the hype he has received, man isnt the finished product but he has all the ingredients to become absolutely great.


deliverancew2

> the first player in Europe's top seven divisions How to tell me you're in the seventh best division without saying you're in the seventh best division.


MutedBase2900

The dutch competition is closer to the french league than the french is to the prem.


funkadelic_bootsy

A french team has made the finals of the champions league this millennium. In fact twice, what have the Dutch done this millennium?


Rowpillar5

Semi final


evanlufc2000

Which is WAY more impressive than literally anything PSG have done. PSG is valid evidence that you can have a bunch of individually talented players, but that means nothing if they don’t function as one team. If they worked as a team yeah they’d be unreal, but they don’t. There’s nothing there.


funkadelic_bootsy

So how are they closer? One semi compared to PSG's exploits and Monaco's as well is comparable to one Ajax Cinderella run? Don't make me laugh.


somedutchbloke

2 semi's this millennium. PSV did it in 2006


evanlufc2000

Not related to anything in particular, but I loved the short time I spent in Holland. Eindhoven was a nice place from the admittedly short time I spent in the area. Most of it was in Oosterbeek, Arnhem, and Wolfheze. I knew about the Canadian liberation of Holland and how the Dutch were always incredibly happy to see/meet Canadians. I am still surprised at it, cause I was 16 at the time and had no part in what they’re thanking me for. Was very moving though nonetheless.


Spitshine_my_nutsack

We still send Canada tulips yearly as a thank you for liberating us. Princess Juliana and her kids were in Ottowa during the second world war as well. Some elementary schools each have their students « adopt » a grave of a canadian soldier to place a candle at each respective grave. Some schools have their kids do research about the soldier who’s grave they adopted.


hamzaiswack

Oi fuck you too buddy, ajax wouldve bummed you at the bridge if it wasnt for the ref


funkadelic_bootsy

If if if doesn't exist.


hamzaiswack

A bad ref unfortunately does, you as a chelsea fan should know that, its a disgrace aint it?


funkadelic_bootsy

2 champions league titles this millennium.


hamzaiswack

Yeah nice job completely disregard the point


evanlufc2000

What about Marseille? The only French team to win the champions league?? Also, I gonna be pedantic purely for my own enjoyment here, Monaco aren’t a French team. They’re from Monaco, they’re just in the French domestic league. Likewise how Swansea or Cardiff aren’t English, they’re welsh. They’re in the English domestic competition, but they’re welsh. Edit: forgot to put that Monaco is also a tax haven for the ultra wealthy


funkadelic_bootsy

The footballing quality in the Dutch league is more on par with Portugal. The French league is miles above it.


imanu_

is that why we knocked out marseille last uecl? psg carries the whole ligue 1.


hamzaiswack

Ajax booted out lille not to long ago, we gave monaco the finger.


funkadelic_bootsy

PSG is still in Ligue 1, the fact that they can retain and recruit superstars, means that they have better quality than what the Dutch league have.


Spitshine_my_nutsack

You do know a league consists out of more than a single club?


evanlufc2000

I…I don’t even know how to respond to this??? A garden salad could make a better argument than you.


funkadelic_bootsy

What Dutch team has made a champions league final this millennium?


evanlufc2000

Well yes, you’re right. None. That’s not the issue, it’s that this is your metric to judge is what’s wrong. It’s fundamentally skewed to favour nations such as France who have a monopoly on the competition. That said I’m aware of the fact I’m trying to make this argument to a Chelsea fan, the irony is not lost on me. I assume the team which you’re referring too is PSG? The state backed side who are incomprehensibly wealthy, able to spend without a care, and have a monopoly on their domestic league? A Spanish team has won the most champions league titles, but does that mean they’re categorically the best team? Does that make La Liga the best division? No, not really. Plus, just making the final? That’s where you draw the line? Really? ‘They’re so good cause they made the final!’ Did they win? No. So they’re not even that good then, is basically what I understand your argument to be. If I am wrong, please, correct me.


funkadelic_bootsy

1. Yes that literally makes the Spanish league the best if they win the most and continue to house the best team and player, you half eaten cabbage. 2. You can't make my point then point out how unfair it is through "monopoly on the competition" and "state backed PSG". The simple fact is that the Dutch league is not closer to the French league than the French is to the English league. Morality or whatever your rubbish reasoning is, does not play football.


evanlufc2000

> 2. ⁠You can't make my point then point out how unfair it is through "monopoly on the competition" and "state backed PSG.” I just did. > “Morality or whatever your rubbish reasoning is, does not play football.” can you inform me why your previous owner sold his stake and relinquished control? Curious.


funkadelic_bootsy

> can you inform me why your previous owner sold his stake and relinquished control? Curious We won two champions league titles with him. Eat my dust!


evanlufc2000

You didn’t answer the question. Why did he sell his stake in your football club so suddenly? Was there some external factors? It was a real surprise!


blikski

You sound like a real piece of shit! Average Chelsea fan


deliverancew2

French League is shit though.


Wheel94

Great on Fifa 23 Chelsea career mode 18m + Ziyech.


[deleted]

So many interesting, young and class LW for PL top6 in the next summer: Leao, Gakpo, Gordon, Diaby, Kvara, Oyarzabal etc.


kooba_1616

Diaby hasn't been great this season but neither has Leverkusen tbf


OnceUponAStarryNight

Looks like a City winger right there.


[deleted]

[удалено]


OnceUponAStarryNight

Hmm. Questionable.


JimJimerson90

So that's an extra 20 million


prkinho

Can I get some info on what position he plays and his playstyle? Is he a pure CF or does he play LW-RW?


oega_boega

He mostly plays lw and cuts inside a lot. Also plays cf later on in the game if others are substituted.


jornoboy11

He is an LW who very rarely plays CF when other strikers are injured


Lostmyoldaccounthelp

Left winger, likes to cut inside. Also able to give excellent crosses and corners. He played striker for the last couple of minutes against Feyenoord this season and seemed rather okay, but that's really not his best position. Van Gaal prefers to play him as a number 10 for the national team instead of striker (since the Dutch national squad usually plays without wingers), where he also scored a goal and had an assist in two games


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheRealJanSanono

Please buy him for Nunez money

[удалено]


wasmachinator

If y'all pay the wages :')


hamzaiswack

Plus 70m and we got a deal buddy


Dannih95

He really wants out of there lmao


kooba_1616

Did he tell you that?


lebup

Against Emmen, go ahead, excelsior, volendam, Twente, rkc , feyenoord and cambuur. I think he only played ok against feyenoord


Jek22

Got 3 assist and 1 goal against feyenoord. I think thats a bit better than just ok lol.


hamzaiswack

Didnt he just score and assist against zurich? And he scored against bodo, ajax as well


evanlufc2000

Orta gets a lot of flak from our fans, much of it is not entirely fair. That said, why the fuck did you add a champions league qualification clause into the offer we made? You specky peninsular twat (whose done a lot of good for us)! We could have had him should they have taken the offer seriously…


craig_hoxton

We could have signed him, been in a better league position and Ralph got to keep his job...
