Jota going to Saudi league would be a net loss for football, he’s very clearly a top talent and I’d resigned myself to him going this summer. If he went to a big team I’d be happy, but it’s sheer greed if he ends up playing Sunday league alongside burnt out old men.
Hope Harry Winks finds some success at Leicester. He’s a decent enough player but with the options we have in midfield now he was never going to get regular game time. Seems like Leicester will be a good fit for him.
@nessisonett It’s a net loss worldwide. They’ve done the same thing in golf, pro wrestling (WWE) & are now aggressively targeting football.
