How much does relegation immediately wipe out 10+ years of careful financial prudence at Tottenham? There’s perhaps a somewhat cruel irony to that.

Everton have climbed quietly into the top half under their returning manager and with a new stadium, fresh investment and exciting young talent on the horizon, the trajectory only points one way
Moyes' unglamorous Everton revival is only just getting started

I'm not really defending Hürzeler. Just making a point about the PL being boring as fuck.
Ouch!
In Fabian Hürzeler’s defence, very few German football fans would argue that the product on display across the Premier League this season resembles anything like what they’re used to calling “football”…
The Bundesliga will be implementing new rules that limit player costs to 70% of a club's total revenue.
And that could have huge implications for RB Leipzig's ability to finish in the top four:
Ahead of tonight's game against Man Utd, consider Newcastle's worrying decline in big games this season:
• 64% fewer points per game
• Would be 7th if they'd maintained last two seasons' form
• Still have to face Chelsea & Arsenal

Hot take: I think David Moyes and Everton are a good fit.
Bundesliga brings in new financial regulations - How will that impact your club?

As private equity firms - which now have their claws in 40% of Europe’s top clubs - buckle under €3 trillion in unsold assets, the Bundesliga's unique 50+1 rule is starting to look less like a relic of the past and more like a blueprint for the future.

Are Wolfsburg doomed?
The Volkswagen club have been struggling for most of this season and now look all out of ideas when it comes to avoiding relegation from the Bundesliga.
You're certainly not wrong there 😂
There's definitely a ground swell of interest in 50+1 in the UK. No doubt about it.
But... it's very easy to agree with it in theory. I suspect most football fans still can't tear themselves away from the idea of a rich benefactor.
Hearts a good example: fan foundation... and a rich investor.

The transfer window rewards clubs like Dortmund, even if they and their star players don’t actually perform.
So it’s only natural that they put profit ahead of sporting success.

Dortmund plead poverty but are one of the richest clubs in the world.
Where Bayern have always been run by footballers, Dortmund are run by an accountant…

I’m hopeful that after they win this title (fingers crossed) he feels like he has the credit in the bank to be more daring. I absolutely appreciate why this season has to be win at all costs .
Which suggests pragmatism above all else. He clearly looks to minimise risk where someone like Klopp would prioritise flair and goals.
To be fair, I think Arteta has absolutely chose to be boring.
I can’t wait for Arsenal to win the league so we can stop watching them win the league and stop talking about how they are winning the league.
That should be all three points for Set Piece FC against Red Card FC.
