I think Moutinho and Rodriguez will probably be gone within a season or 2 anyway

The only reason they went to Monaco is probably because no top club were prepared to pay the prices Porto would have demanded so they snatched at any opportunity to get out just like Hulk did

Kings,

I totally agree mate. I'm against FFP as my view is that any bloke who wants to invest his OWN cash in a club should have the freedom to do so.

If clubs are borrowing from banks to gamble on success a la Pompey then it's a problem but if I won £500M on the Euromillions and wasn't allowed to turn my mob into a top outfit just because we've got no fans and a moderately sized stadium I'd be more than a little peed off!

Ron, but Monaco are hardly likely to accept making a loss, will they? especially if they turn out to be succesful.

Exactly, FFP should be there to protect clubs from owners like the Venky's, where infact it will leave clubs more vaunrable to owners like that than ever.

I have said from the start this is just a ploy to get United dominating England with no one touching them (if anything was "ruining" football in England, wouldn't turning it into the SPL be that?). But then again they have Moyes

It's the premier league FFP that are stupid

A £4m increase in wage bill per year only allows for 1 top player per year for teams trying to compete for the title

Rodriguez for almost 40 million and mouthinhio only just over 20. Would have thought it was the other way around

^ Porto fixed it so they didn't have to pay quarter of Moutinho's fee to Sporting Lisbon

Pinto Da Costa's such a twerp, not even Levy would have attempted that
