PL shit that doesn't need it's own thread.

the players should be paying their fees like in all other areas where agents occur.

This makes no difference whatsoever, if an actor's agent charges 10% he'll want 10% more. It's the consumers, us, who pay for it. No one else.

Anyone seen Salah's agent's twitter?

Seems like a genuinely strange guy.

 

[Pagnell]

Maybe he's strange in a sense that, when Real or Barcelona inevitably come calling, he'll turn down the money and tell Mo to stick with The Liverpool Project ™.

 

[Bilo]

Probably not that strange.

Seems its not just United ruining football with agents fees after all.

 

[Bilo]

Who the hell said it was "just United" anywhere ever?

 

[Pagnell]

Mr Scruff. United's Silky.

Who the hell said it was "just United" anywhere ever?

The reaction to the sanchez transfer after City`s press release was pretty much that.

 

[Pagnell]

It really wasn't.

 

[Bilo]

Not even almost.

the most beautiful passage of play in the pl this season...

How football was meant to be played.

 

[St. Juste]

Kane, notable recently for being the least contemptible (and even somewhat admirable) English international, really isn't coming across well on this "swearing on his daughters life" to try and get a goal the cameras do not give him.

Imploring people to take his word.

It's a near certainty they will give it to him. In a World Cup year the star English striker can get away with far worse - see Shearers stamp on Neil Lennons head.

Shearer should have been knighted for that.

Only just read about this. I can't think of anything that would make me swear on my children's lives, never mind a goal in a game of fucking football because he wants to increase his chance at the golden boot. Classless twat.

 

[JimJams]

In all fairness, if it's the truth, what does it matter?

 

[Pagnell]

Because there are some things you don't do regardless, and swearing on your children's existence is one of them. I accept I could be in a minority believing that though. But for me, doing it so publicly is distasteful to say the least.

 

[JimJams]

I find it pointless and somewhat juvenile tbh, but I dunno about distasteful.

 

[Benji]

Do you think the footballing Gods will take his daughter as sacrifice if he doesn't get the goal?

That could seriously affect his form ahead of the World Cup.

 

[St. Juste]

There's no way to ascertain if it is the truth.

The Cameras do not show him getting a touch, admittedly a bit is covered by the post.

So, he knows there is no evidence to back up his view point but is imploring people to take his word, and using his daughters life as means to legitimise something he can't prove.

For Raheem Sterling to do it? To be expected. But for Kane it's an indication of a lack of character that has not been fully evident in the past.

All people change when they become successful.

 

[JimJams]

Putting way too much thought into that.
If he's certain he touched it then proof is absolutely irrelevant to his statement.
Or do you think his statement was deliberately constructed so people would stop and think "Oh well if he's sworn on his daughters life it must be true, no proof needed", rather than just a bit of a throw away remark that you only generally hear children use "I swear on me mams life I never nicked that curly wurly mate, not me, no never".
I suspect it's more the latter than the former.

 

[AFCB_Mark]

Give him a 6 game ban for his silliness I say. Makes sure he's fit and rested for the summer. That would suit England's agenda far more than the goals panel awarding him one tenuous extra goal.

When you think about it it's a fucked up thing to say tbh but it passed me by without notice until Pags called him out on it to be fair.

Eriksen still the official goalscorer.

 

[Pagnell]

Good. Fuck you Kane. How dare you try to catch up our beloved Mo.

That's what he was going for, yes.

There's no other reason to say it.

As a team mate you would pretty annoyed with such attention seeking behaviour too, I would image.

He could just claim he will boycott the world cup and get whenever he wants.

That's what Shearer did.

 

[Pagnell]

Awarded to Kane. Disgraceful. Perhaps Hugh isn't a million miles away when it comes to his claim about Kane getting away with anything.

Salah should appeal for any goal we score this weekend simply for being on the pitch. I'd suggest he swear on his kids life but I suspect he's not enough of a classless cnut.

[Pagnell]

The more you see it, the more you realise that his shoulder was clearly nowhere near fucking touching it. Desperate.

Salah needs to give the biased panel the two finger salute by making sure he continues to score more than the Spurs striker.

Go on Sir Harry Kane.
