Why are we wasting time with a loan player Van de Beek who will cost us upwards of £3.5 million and £120000 in wages when we can pickup another player we are interested in, the Russian Daniil Fomin aged 24 who is described as a VDB type player if not better. We can pick him up for £4.5 million and own him outright. If we can pick him up for 4.5 then so can the rest of the division. Who has put it out there that's he's better? His agent or interested parties? I wouldn't know personally but I do know that VDB cost Man U 35 million plus £5 million in add-ons. Edited by Stirlingsays (27 Jan 2022 8.10pm)

From the top picture he looks like he's stepped out of Trainspotting.

Will it be allowed?

Will it be allowed? Probably. It would be unfair to punish a player when the punishment is aimed at the club. I assume he is not Russian?

Of course it won’t be allowed ....he’s Russian for Christ’s sake...NO Russians will be allowed to play here...hopefully Abramovich will be kicked out too...What happens to Chelsea?...Frankly who cares... Yup just checked he is Russian. They may not ban anyone that low down on the food chain but would he want to come here at the moment?

Apparently there are a large number of Russians who are unhappy at what their mad dictator has done

Whilst I appreciate its a very different era & the circumstances are not the same but during the Falkland's crisis Spurs had a couple of very talented Argentinians playing for them. Not all the time they didn’t, their visas were revoked for part of the time Edited by Spiderman (26 Feb 2022 8.06am)

Clearly a better memory than mine Spider - They were indeed in the UK so we’re on work permits rather than visas, I apologise for the mistake. I actually extended Ossie’s work permit, when I worked at HO, not that long before he had to leave

Nice gesture. But isn't Fray Bentos from Uruguay? Originally posted by Dubai Eagle
Just on the Falklands - I was selling foodstuffs for a fairly well known company at the time it kicked off, sitting in the buyers office of a busy London cash & carry when the Fray-Bentos rep arrived, the buyer (full credit to him) immediately said to the fray bentos rep, right, everything on your stock list that comes from Argentine is deleted ( we wont be buying any more) & I want you to uplift anything left on the shelves / in the warehouse. The fray bentos guy left in silence.
