      Gonna see more of this I think. They’re simply outspending everyone. Probably will come back to bite though — look at China. Oscar’s still fucking there.

        Lmao really? Oscar had style, it’s pretty bleak that he spent the majority of his career in China. Not that I have anything against their league but it’s just that the best players should be playing against each other, not wallowing in a foreign league for money

          He tried to go back to Brazil last year but Shenhua blocked the transfer lol, even as a Gooner it’s fucking tragic. Granted I’m biased as a Hong Konger but… If they want reputation-type players, they should do like Kitchee did with Forlan — take someone at the end of his career so that he gets to play the beautiful game and then help us improve reputations lol
