Come on now Sludge, that’s like saying Haaland saved his arse by scoring so many goals. That’s what the ‘keeper is there for, it’s his job and that’s why the manager signed him and picks him.

It’s also funny how born losers constantly denigrate winners. Actually, scratch that - it’s not funny at all. It’s incredibly tedious.

Who brought the keeper that 'saved his arse' to the club?

Sorry, next time I'll think of a Liverpool player. It'd be surprising though if Pep could make Maguire look good as he'd probably not be in his team. But then again, maybe he'd find a way to use his strengths like he did with Stones.
Reading the papers, I see there's a lot of FFP barbs. Like it or not, it was ever thus except the status quo has gone and there are some new richest clubs. I admit hearing clubs like Real Madrid complaining gives me an un Christian like pleasure. Having been funded by Madrid town council they have just lost as the stakes have gone up. "I'll see your city and I'll raise a country". Like all aspects of life, having money almost alway opens up more options. Manchester United are so rich that they've been able to waste over a billion since Ferguson left with very little in return. Chelsea seems to have wasted a lot. What was the underlying reason to try and apply FFP? It makes sense if it was to stop clubs going into huge debt to try and buy success. It seems to make less sense if money is being pumped into a club with no increase in debt. There's a certain amount of money available in football that's being pushed around. When Manchester United (over)paid 80m for Maguire, that money (eventually) should be available to Leicester to potentially recirculate. It shouldn't be lost to football if an owner doesn't take it out. Having more money in the system doesn't seem to be of any philosophical difference. I'm not talking about the morality of football being "worth" billions or where this new money is coming from.
I suppose the danger is if a benefactor decides to withdraw for whatever reason. These people are rich beyond Croesus. They could be made to put enough money in a place to guarantee that the club be run for the next n years. That'd probably stop the investors anyway.
