Right OK, you don't want late tackles to count as fouls anymore? |

Have Villa got matching rights though? |

The defender launches himself towards Kane/the ball going for the block, his other foot is off the ground, and his momentum takes him from the edge of the six yard box towards the edge of the penalty area. |

Kane kicked the ball; the defender missed the ball and kicked Kane. It's irrelevant what Kane was doing when the defender kicks him! |

"Kane follows through and kicks the Dutch guys boot" - this sounds like you haven't watched it - the Dutch player is moving forward with lots of momentum towards Kane with his studs raised and his foot at thigh height. |

Yeah - don't really understand the controversy etc., it's a clear foul. |

Yeah, that would be my guess - Villa were a bit miffed that we agreed a joint deal where we valued eg £15mil for Philogene and £25mil for Greaves, so they decided to either push up the price for Philogene or buy him themselves at the reduced price, even though they don't want / need him that much.
Now we're left with a £25mil offer for Greaves which we don't want to finalise because we'd want to re-negotiate if the Philogene deal falls through. Hull want the ITFC offer to go through because they stand to lose out if Villa get Philogene at the reduced price and then we pull-out of the deal for Greaves. |

That's a bonkers attitude - it's a massive decision for a young man to make which could determine how his career pans out, and he's totally entitled to spend a bit of time making that decision. With where we are now, we're going to be competing with lots of clubs for high profile players with lots of options. |

Think with this Philogene transfer the agent is generating loads of interest / stories to flush out buyers etc, but the big downside for him is that when he's got middling talents / players to try and get deals for, lots of people are going to remember his attitude and approach, and not bother with the hassle. |

Reply | £40m for Philogene and Greaves is scandalous by the way
at 11:57 9 Jul 2024
TBH think it's ok value.
In my opinion the really poor value is going to be in Gnonto, Summerville and Rutter if they leave Leeds - could see e.g. a club like Newcastle, West Ham, Tottenham or Chelsea buying any of them for £40million, giving them a few games, then realising they aren't quite the finished article, confidence dropping, out on loan in January etc. |

Think Jaime Peters was a bit protracted and a bit of a steal, wasn't there a fan petition to get him to sign, and quite a few big clubs after him?
Edit: Lol, completely wrong thread. [Post edited 9 Jul 11:39]

Think it's more about making sure we have enough positive, supportive, vocal leaders in the group who can pick the team up and keep us going during the times when it's inevitably going to be tough, rather than having specific experience of playing in a particular League that we need. |

13 goals in 23 starts for a weak team in L1, some really good finishes, 23 years old, strong and mobile with a decent touch. Hasn't done much for us, but could easily get 20 league goals and get Charlton promoted. |

Think it's a good move for the players too - if they go to a West Ham / Villa / Palace where there's more pressure and more competition for places, one injury/poor run of form or change of manager could see their career stall.
At ITFC they know they'll (if fit) be starters and with a manager with the skills to potentially improve them. If they are the real deal, they'll get a big move after a year (or two) anyway. |

It is genuinely extraordinary how little talent there is in the conservative party now.
The likes of Greg Clarke, Amber Rudd, Rory Stewart, David Gauke, Phil Hammond and Dominc Grieve (all kicked out in 2019 by Johnson) could now be the senior figures in the party - their absence, combined with the likes of Gove quitting this time and the electoral disaster they're heading for, there's going to be a complete absence of talented, decent people left. |

What kind of running do you coach? I'm just getting into running seriously this year and doing lots of races, absolutely love it, can't believe I didn't do it when I was younger. |
