@Matt_Law_DT If the punishments are so weak, what is stopping a club from ignoring the rules and spending whatever they like?
Or having sponsorship deals that aren’t fair market value?
Biased because a Newcastle fan but I’d be happy if club ignored rules and spent years in court arguing it.

Chelsea fans are understandably delighted with the PL punishment while fans of the majority of clubs just see it as further proof that the competition is effectively rigged. In a PSR/SCR era, Chelsea continue to benefit from the success the players in question contributed to.

Signing Hazard, Ramires, David Luiz, Andre Schurrle, Matic, Eto’o & Willian and only getting a £10m fine & a suspended transfer ban. WORTH IT.

@PLinUSA @NFLUKIRE @NFL @ChelseaFC @DickertheKicker @gregolsen88 @AntoineWJr11 @daiyan_henley11 And they’re all supporting the wrong team! #NUFC

Since Jordyn Tyson seems to be picking up popularity this week (thanks @Ihartitz) I figured I'd share this.
Former #Steeler Hines Ward was his WR Coach at ASU, and they have a great mentor-protege relationship.
This was my write-up for Tyson pre-combine. @WSHRoundtable

@SkySportsNews Jesus Christ, might as well have the teletubbies on. Talk more sense than this clown 🤡

It’s always a blast catching up with our friend @AllbrightNFL on the podcast
We covered #NFL Free Agency and what Ben is hearing at the top of the draft board.
I asked about who the #Commanders could see at 7, and if he anticipates any surprises in the top-6 picks.

@titansfilmroom Commanders aren’t trading up for Love. If Titans want him he will be a Titan. Giants gonna go defence because Harbaugh.
If Love is there at 7, he could be the guy. But I also think Commanders are missing a guy to build defence around and there will be one available at 7.

Biggest threats to draft Jeremiyah Love and their related free agency moves:
#3 Cardinals - re-worked James Conner contract, signed Tyler Allgeier, re-signed Bam Knight
#4 Titans - ???
#5 Giants - ???
#7 Commanders - signed Rachaad White
#8 Saints - signed Travis Etienne
#9 Chiefs - signed Kenneth Walker
Appears to be a two-team race at this point! Although White is on just a one-year contract, so who knows.

@TheAthleticFC This is such a glass half empty opinion.
The team that played, put out their best version of themselves and we can be proud of that.
It was always gonna be tough to get through but got to be positive
English

Not only did Newcastle United only belatedly find the goal their ambition on the night warranted, they still somehow found a way to cancel that out by conceding at the last against a supremely talented team who they had restricted to basically nothing.
In attack especially, their decision-making and execution in the final third were found wanting last night. Critically, a lack of ruthlessness haunted them once more.
Do Eddie Howe's side possess the clinical edge required to win in Barcelona? If Anthony Gordon plays, then maybe — but it remains a big maybe.

@titansfilmroom How do you feel about Titans signing a bunch of Giants?
Giants weren’t exactly a good team…
English

While we wait for the Mitch Trubisky terms, here's how much the Titans have already spent today:
-TE Daniel Bellinger: $24M (3 years)
-WR Wan'Dale Robinson: $70M (4 years)
-DT John Franklin-Myers: $63M (3 years)
-CB Cor'Dale Flott: $45M (3 years)
-CB Alontae Taylor: $60M (3 years)
-QB Mitch Trubisky: TBD (2 years)
TOTAL: $262M

@JoshNorris Because they have no vision with the players they sign. They collect individuals rather than building a team
English

Call me crazy, but I am starting to believe the #NUFC journalists close to Eddie Howe are putting all this Woltemade nonsense out to help deflect blame and attention away from the manager who's tactical ineptitude is the reason Woltemade and the entire team are underperforming.

Zian Flemming's goal has been ruled out as Jaidon Anthony was offside before his cross 😯

BURNLEY HAVE TAKEN THE LEAD! FROM 0-3, IT'S 4-3 😱
English

Newcastle were beaten before a ball was kicked because of their team selection.
1. Let’s react to Howe’s comments - More possession doesn’t mean you were dominant. Everton conceded possession and Newcastle has zero idea - Check every other stat.
2. Play players in their best positions:
Not saying this in hindsight because I said it before the game.
Who in the right mind looks at Joelinton and sees him as a winger.
Who in the right mind looks at Woltemade and sees him as a midfielder.
Could say the same for Gordon.
3. Profiles and partnerships create a winning formula … those 3 profiles DO NOT complement each other one single bit.
Instantly unbalanced and put Newcastle on a negative from minute 1.
Meant Everton got momentum and Newcastle always chasing the game, even when trying to change it.
4. Why do we look at players and talk about what they can’t do rather than what we can do?
“Woltemade can’t press, Gordon can”
Picking Gordon as a striker based on his DEFENSIVE capabilities tells you everything about Newcastle’s season.
I don’t think Howe should go but play to your players strengths, be brave.
More importantly, after games if you get it wrong … take accountability.
I know few individual mistakes, but that selection man. Wow.
To add, huge credit to Everton. Fully deserved their 3 points. You were brilliant

🗣️Eddie Howe: "Extremely frustrating. We worked hard to get back into the game. "Everton aren’t easy to score against, so chasing it took a lot out of us. Then we undo it with avoidable mistakes. The second one especially hurt us. "We were dominant. But those lapses cost us."
English

We have to be very honest about Eddie Howe. It’s nearly March and he has no idea what his best eleven is, no idea what tactics he wants to implement per game and still hasn’t found a solution against teams sitting in.
We have to make a change in the summer. #nufc

@JoelBlandSport Looked like Willock was asking for the penalty from the tv coverage
English

Seems to have been some disagreement over Gordon taking that penalty involving Trippier, Burn calming both players down as they went down the tunnel. #nufc

These options are all available at #7… who should the #Commanders take? 👀
• EDGE David Bailey
• S Caleb Downs
• WR Carnell Tate
• CB Mansoor Delane
• RB Jeremiyah Love
