The clubs around us are in a different level from us in what they can afford to spend on players. We spend a £100m our squad value will still be well below theirs as we have a lot of older players who are not worth much.

posted by Ted (Guest) - Sunday 02nd August 2026, 12:21 PM Morocco young men have seen and read the brochure which is a lie. You come to England and get a free house and money. The harsh reality is, low level migrants with no education if they get here will most likely work in a chicken factory plucking chickens which most of them will not like to do. If you work here you need 40 years of stamps working to get a full state pension and that is the reality. Morocco isn't the most poorest in the world. All it needs is a proper leader or president who isn't corrupt, etc etc. A lot of young men born here and coming here would not care to pick up a spade and even dig potatoes at 4.00am in the morning and that's what proper hard working farmers try to do along with various farm work for a living. People want an easy life now that doesn't exist and you will find that England for all it's attractions ain't easy street. You are born, you grow up, you work 40 years, you retire a few years then you pass away and the next generation gets a go. Nuff said!!!

Obviously I do hope that you are right, and things turn out fine for us under AA, but I can foresee a dreadful start to the season, which will take some time to recover from. Of course with a couple of decent signings, that haven't happened so far, despite rumour after rumour. Day after day, we read that new signings are going to happen either tomorrow, or next week, but while we fiddle, like Rome burns, other clubs just get on with it. I can't be the only one feeling so frustrated, but it's all part of our clubs dreadful summer transfer history. K

posted by Scott (Guest) - Saturday 01st August 2026, 10:50 AM I would disagree but nothing would make me happier Owen is correct and we are wrong. Firstly, Muniz would make a great Youtube profile with some of the good goals he has scored. However, look deeper, he's probably the least technical player I have seen coming here from Brazil. ESR - very technical and even gifted. But he's got a stamina issue and added to this his lazy body language, he will never be the player he could be, which is a shame! I hope they both proof you correct and me wrong next season, cos they have been weakest links so far.

Latest from Sky Sports News' James Cole: Fulham have agreed a double deal with Real Madrid to sign Gonzalo Garcia and Cesar Palacios. Sky Sports News understands Fulham have committed to paying a combined fee of £42.3m (€50m) for the duo, who have both come through Real Madrid's academy. Garcia, a 22-year-old striker, who was top scorer at the Club World Cup last summer, is set to move for around £34m. Meanwhile, Palacios, an 18-year-old midfielder who made his senior debut for Real Madrid in January, is costing Fulham around £8.5m. New Fulham head coach Alvaro Arbeloa has been a driving force behind these two deals, as he is familiar with both players from his time at Real Madrid as first-team coach and working in the academy.
posted by MST (Moderator) - Friday 31st July 2026, 12:40 PM The Gonzalo Garcia Transfer was sports headlines yesterday on varios spanish national and local tv stations as a confirmed transaction. As per mute on the FFC Website i assume it will continue that way for a few days unless somebody wips over a few ffc shirts to Madrid. On a seperate note and to calm down the Skepticals on this issue,it is a calculated risk with which i personally feel very excited about. For youngsters to brake into the Real madrid A team is extremely difficult and its customary every year for them to loan out many of the home grown talents to championship or lower quality la liga teams.

An unknown manager, with the same team, with no striker of note, doesn't give me any confidence whatsoever, and I will be very pleased if we are not in the bottom 3 after 10 games, and at Christmas, which doesn't bode well.

posted by Ted (Guest) - Saturday 25th July 2026, 9:18 PM Can't blame everything on the 5-year-old. A long history tells us that Venezuela Cuba, and Iran ruin their economy all by themselves, self-inflicted, and the word is communism. None of the above and countries not named do not have leaders who can run a sweet shop. If England is ruined, we have done it to ourselves and mainly through wokeism and basically throwing away our faith in Christianity and not just blame woke; we all have self-destructed. The crucifix is associated with the bad stuff that a few rogue knights did a long time ago. Too many atheists running the show is bad luck and that's why nothing works as it should. A hairy-fairy King who instructs learned scholars to change everything to all faiths is again a sign of bad luck. A christian welcome is a blessing but what has gone so wrong? Just take a look around most inner cities and all you can see is chaos. Dumping etc. Every seating area is riddled with a scattering of sunflower seeds eaten and spat out by people i kid you not. Blokes drinking beer in broad daylight, apparently they pay £15 daily if you need to drink beer. Drugs doled out from chemist, charity clothes broke open and strewn all over the streets, you couldn't make it up. Courts turning down punishments because of human rights don't help. There is a place called Davenport in the states of the US where you get fined for not cutting grass and it looks so neat and clean but hey' we don't want that! We want weeds grown all over for the bee's sake, never mind the awful and ugly look of our changing landscape. The penny will drop when our in the house red queen will reap her hatred for posh people when they turn places like Wiltshere into slum areas and trust me, it is coming to towns like this and there is only so much the NIMBY's can do to stop it. Chaos in England reigns supreme and we as citizens have only ourselves to blame.
posted by OWEN - Saturday 25th July 2026, 11:51 PM Historically, the strategy of deliberate destabilization to justify authoritarian rule relies on systematic social, economic, and political disruption.Phase 1: Institutional Erosion, Deconstruct Legal Frameworks: Weaken constitutional checks and balances. Politicize Law Enforcement: Turn neutral security forces into partisan tools. Paralyze Governance: Create bureaucratic gridlock to stall public services. Discredit Elections: Sabotage public trust in voting mechanisms. Phase 2: Social and Economic Polarization Exacerbate Class Divides: Implement economic policies that widen wealth gaps. Weaponize Identity: Fuel racial, ethnic, or religious animosities. Generate Artificial Scarcity: Disrupt supply chains to cause panic. Information Warfare: Flood media channels with hyper-partisan conspiracy theories. Phase 3: Manufactured Crises Instigate Civil Unrest: Provoke violent clashes during public protests. Economic Sabotage: Trigger sudden market crashes or currency devaluation. Security Subversion: Allow minor threats to escalate unchecked. Create chaos to usher in totalitarianism, mission complete.

posted by New boots and panties (Guest) - Saturday 25th July 2026, 12:25 PM Oscar Bobb is a quality young player but we wouldn't have known it but for the World Cup. Norway had a decent World Cup and Bobb played very well and he did not look out of place. We are looking and seeing players such as Bobb, Muniz, and Smith Rowe through Silva-eyes and in my opinion Marco Silva didn't and couldn't get the best out of these players and this is part reason why i personally wasn't too sad that Marco left. What does Arbeola think of these players? That is the question and i think we should reserve judgement and wait and see if Bobb and co fit into Areola's playing system.
posted by OWEN - Saturday 25th July 2026, 1:24 PM Unless they double the money we paid, it would be silly to sell Bobb already! While he hasn’t started with fireworks, there were glimpses of quality. If we are going to build a team with two tricky wingers in Bobb and Kevin, we should stick with the plan! They are both young and abundance of quality! I think we have something here. So, we have better financial muscle than Roma - hope we told them where to go!
posted by JohnC (Guest) - Saturday 25th July 2026, 2:14 PM The possible transfer of Oscar Bobb should not even be contemplated. We should be looking to add quality to our team and a striker that can regularly score goals from the off after losing both Harry and Raul.

posted by NRL (Guest) - Saturday 25th July 2026, 8:55 AM As usual nothing happening, idle press threats and the only reporting is on possible departures. Perhaps Silva leaving has thrown a spanned in the works, and new targets are being assessed, but this waiting game is nothing new. We really need to kick into gear, or get well and truly left behind. See Palace are supposedly interested in centre half, bet they offer the right money and get deal done. I would look at Chalabar from Chelscum at £30 million, premiership experience and reasonably solid.

I hope that means we score late goals rather than concede them.
posted by The Time Is Now - Thursday 23rd July 2026, 6:11 PM If we could become the fittest team in the Premier League we would win more matches. A really good manager should concentrate on what is achievable and achieve it. For example the manager should find tactics that best suit our players not tactics he likes or have worked before. He must be cleverer than the players and constantly demonstrate that.
posted by The Time Is Now - Friday 24th July 2026, 10:04 AM I didn't think we were that bad for fitness? We won some games coming stronger in the second half last season and i think fitness is not an issue. I hope Arbi knows what he is doing and not forcing injuries. Our problem was link ups, cohesion and playing together and finishing which we are not strong on. Arbi is traditionally good with youth players but our whole team is not all youthful. Those coming back from the world cup such as berg and Robinson need and deserve a rest, not flogged to death.
posted by OWEN - Friday 24th July 2026, 2:23 PM I am absolutely sure the manager will use horse for courses, but suspect he is fitter than some of our players. We also should play well for 96 minute not recover from a bad first half in the second or hold onto a 1-0 score. I believe we have an attacking manager who will want the player when they score to keep playing the same and score more. A lot more. Regular 3 0 scores or better would be nice and a lot less 1 0 an 2-1. We desperately need to score more goals.

However the point is, how can Chelsea spend that amount of money, when they are still being questioned on their overspending. If we did that, we would be over the coals, with points deductions etc, so how the hell do Chelsea get away with it, time after time ? They of course are not the only ones, Manchester City have still not been charged, for breaking financial rules, over a 100 times. Leicester City fans, must be fuming at these so unfair regulations.
posted by AC (Guest) - Wednesday 22nd July 2026, 7:46 AM While it sounds like a bump deal but it makes sense. Diop only had one year left on his contract and on maybe 4m a year. So in the next 12 months, we'd lose £12m on him. We spend £25m on Nwaiwu and he will probably be on less than £2m salary. so over 5 years - we will spend £35m. Less £12m. So for a trade of £23m (and actually 7m if you further discount Diop salary for another 4 years) - we have a player for the next 3-4 years, younger and improving player and hopefully, has a resale value. So financially and in the long term, it makes sense!!
posted by JohnC (Guest) - Wednesday 22nd July 2026, 9:11 AM Well done with your financial explanation. We get a younger better players at lower wage cost.

Burnham, like his nine predecessors, is like all politicians, is big on talk but will fail to deliver. The belief you can tax people “ad infinitum” is a misconception ingrained in politicians. They fail to grasp one of the basic principles of economics, the law of diminishing returns. The wealthiest and largest taxpayers can and up sticks and leave. We are currently taxed at the highest rate since the Second World War and believe me taxation increase. Unfortunately, I have left it too late.

That is what most people want from a politician these days. Doing something, whatever it is. appeals more than apparently nothing. In the ignorant UK we live in that is the on way to get into our limited brains.

posted by Ipitombi (Guest) - Tuesday 21st July 2026, 7:30 AM Not sure why we should have an election? We vote for a political party in this country, not a prime minister. I abhor Labour and their two bit government and I'm not a Royalist but the last thing we need in this country is a republican state where we vote for a person rather than a political party.
posted by MST (Moderator) - Tuesday 21st July 2026, 7:58 AM to be precise we vote on the basis of their manifesto. Unfortunately, that's been a bit worthless lately and it is too easy to promise the world (or even blatant lie) in the manifesto then to go back on the commitments. And there's nothing we can do just like in theory Labour can bring in Mickey mouse to run the country and there's nothing we can do! That's politics!
posted by JohnC (Guest) - Tuesday 21st July 2026, 8:05 AM Can’t have general elections all the time but the country is rapidly going down the tubes. Everything Labour do from now on will be aimed at doing irreversible damage that the next government will find impossible to recover from. Net zero will be pushed further and further. We are now just a vassal state for Chinese industries, from cars to windmills to steel. We need a patriotic government that will back Britain and take out the rubbish. The major supermarkets believe there’s upwards of 90 million people in the UK. Thames Water think they’re servicing 4 million customers more than they’re being paid for. Tax revenues don’t reflect this. Billions are being lost in tax revenue but idiots on PAYE are being asked to shoulder the burden. Start by taxing all benefits. Then remove foreign benefits entitlement. Billions available straight away.

I'm so sorry to hear of the sad passing of Kevin Keegan, of cancer. I was absolutely thrilled to bits when he joined us, and very sad when he moved on. I was lucky enough to meet him, when we played Bournemouth away a few years ago. A friend of mine, was on the board at Bournemouth, and my wife and I were able to sit in the directors box. My wife being from Liverpool couldn't believe her luck when they both chatted. Poor Kevin, couldn't get a word in edgeways ! ! My condolences to his family, who with him when he joined his many friends in football heaven.

posted by OWEN - Monday 20th July 2026, 5:46 PM Kevin Keegan was our Manager at a very important time in FFC's development when Mohammed Al Fayed was our Chairman (less said about him the better). So long Kevin you were one of he best strikers this country had and a good manager as well!
posted by Rich of Cambridge (Guest) - Monday 20th July 2026, 5:49 PM What a hero,as a player and a manager. Brought Fulham to another level as a kid thought he was fantastic sad news.
posted by Chief (Guest) - Monday 20th July 2026, 6:18 PM Kevin Keegan left Liverpool in 1977 and was the first English footballer to play in the Bundesliga. He was a very good footballer and when he returned he was the complete footballer. Perhaps one of the lasting memories was the clash with Billy Bremmer in the FA Charity Shield in 1974 when they went hammers and tongs and both were sent off, were fined and suspended for eleven games. However, Kevin was normally a very well behaved player. We are proud of his short tenure at Fulham. Another of England’s great footballer laid to rest.

posted by Magicman (Guest) - Monday 20th July 2026, 7:55 PM He got us promoted then cleared off, not one of our greatest, but he was a great player and a very nice man.
posted by The Time Is Now - Tuesday 21st July 2026, 7:29 AM RIP Kevin a wonderful footballer but just a special person who would make you feel good played the game. With his heart on his sleeve and conducted himself in the same manner after watching him play you would go out to the park and try to emulate him
posted by Jim (Guest) - Tuesday 21st July 2026, 7:45 AM Sad day to hear the news yesterday. I guess majority of the people in here grew up watching Keegan and he was amazing and a very honest and decent human being! A lot of fond football memories of him. RIP.

Shame really because I thought when called upon looked safer bet than Anderson. Can’t blame him though, needs 1st team football and wish him good luck at Ipswich. Yet again plenty of players on the move and none incoming.
posted by Sussexcol (Guest) - Monday 20th July 2026, 2:13 PM Big mistake letting Diop go. A good and reliable centre half. Good luck Isa,but we should have worked harder to keep you. We did , after all, finish 11th last season and that without a decent goal scorer.we should be bringing in players not exiting players.
posted by Aussie Mal (Guest) - Monday 20th July 2026, 4:29 PM Diop should have stayed put. We are a work in progress and miles ahead of Ipswich. Diop had a decent world cup and his exploits wouldn't have gone unnoticed with Arbeloa.
posted by OWEN - Monday 20th July 2026, 5:49 PM Dont understand the Diop sale, nevdr let us down, would rather we got rid of Anderson
posted by Bob (Guest) - Monday 20th July 2026, 7:05 PM I am sure Diop wanted to get to a team a where he will be appreciated and played.
posted by The Time Is Now - Tuesday 21st July 2026, 4:55 AM Unrest is the legacy of Silva's reign, both Diop and Cuenca unwanted and under used by him.

I believe VAR had been told if the ref has seen an incident his decision is the only ones that matters.

posted by Keith Pundit (Guest) - Sunday 19th July 2026, 10:54 PM One of the worst finals I have ever seen, ruined by the fouling cheats from Argentina, and that red card was long overdue.
