Spent two weeks calling himself a warrior only to call in sick on his first night.
This is exactly why you don’t spend huge money on ageing players who have been ran into the ground for the last 5 years.
Aston Villa and Newcastle have become threats to Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool and now the FFP rules the “Red Cartel” clubs were so keen to implement have destroyed both clubs in one transfer window.
Aston Villa:
👋 Rogers - GONE
👋 Digne - GONE
👋 Tielemans - GONE
⏳ Konsa - GOING
⏳ Watkins - GOING
⏳ Martinez - GOING
Newcastle:
👋 Guimaraes - GONE
👋 Tonali - GONE
👋 Gordon - GONE
⏳Woltemade - GOING
⏳Hall - GOING
Once a team gets themselves into position to threaten success, FFP destroys them and they need to start again.
@Sirepee2@TheVillaPodcast But then players are also responsible for pushing for moves to these top 6 clubs for higher wages what clubs like villa and Newcastle can’t pay due to PSR
Villa and Newcastle the 2 most recent teams to compete with the ‘big 6’ the last few years and to nobody’s surprise both clubs stripped of their assets from top 6 clubs this summer. But people will still argue that the premier league is the most competitive league in the world 🤣
