Pep Guardiola's first and he dovetailed
brilliantly with Thierry Henry and
Lionel Messi hitting 36 in all
competitions including one in the
Champions League final to help the
bloggers honor to the treble the first
in Spanish football history
but Pep was keen to strengthen the squad
and decided to use a toe as a bargaining
chip and a deal for Zlatan Ibrahimovic
who've been serious top scorer with into
that season Guardiola swapped his strike
and 46 million euros to bring the Swede
to Catalunya but fan out with him almost
instantly returning him to Italy after
one year flat and did lift five trophies
in Barcelona but the only major one was
the league title why Leto adapted

the following two campaigns the club

the Crystal Palace with the squad in
tatters and relegation followed a year
and a half later eight liverpool and
robbie keane drive to 20-year career in
football robbie keane has scored
everywhere he's gone except Inter Milan
and Liverpool the Nerazzurri barely gave
him a chance

but that wasn't enough to put off
Liverpool who swooped for keen in 2008
then 28 the strikers called 105 goals in
the Premier League and had reached
double figures in the pram in six
consecutive seasons with Spurs the Reds
handed over 19 million pounds for his
services
however with Fernando Torres and dirt
firing up front Keane was shifted
out to the left wing by Rafa Benitez a
position he had never played before as a
result it took 11 games in 688 minutes
for him to get on the scoresheet for the
scousers and he would end up hitting
just seven goals in 28 appearances after
189 day's Bonita sold Keane back to
Spurs for 12 million pounds meaning that
every day he spent at the club he cost
them 37 thousand pounds he went on to
success with Celtic and LA Galaxy

recently as 2010 Fulham were flying they
reached the final of the Europa League
under Roy Hodgson losing to an athletic
o Madrid side featuring Diego forlán and
Sergio agüero and were regulars in the
top half of the table but achievement
breeds expectation and Shahid Khan who
paid around 150 million pounds for the
club in 2010 sacked two coaches within
seven months of taking over quickly
tipping the side into a relegation
battle Curran brought in Felix McGrath
who been out of the game for two years

to Bundesliga titles and backed the
manager with a 12 million pound move for
Olympia across striker cost us Metro
glue the Greek had 41 and 92 in his
homeland but he played just three times
for the Cottagers while my gas
unorthodox methods alienated the squad
he told beretta hangul and that putting
cheese on a knee injury would reduce the
swelling and were cool players into his
office only to stare at them wordlessly
for minutes on end with Vetrov loo
written off as an expensive
bus he returned to Olympiakos where he
got 19 and 33 before switching to
Benfica where he scored 36 in 60 and won
a pair of titles McGough lost 12 of his
20 games in charge of Fulham
taking them down to the championship and
conceding more than two goals again he
most recently coached Shandong Luneng in
China six
Guiseppe rayna's houses Giuseppe Reina
sounds like an Italian Pepe Reina
impersonator but he was actually a
German forward who except for a year
with Hertha Berlin spent his entire
career in the region of North
rhine-westphalia where he is born he
spent four seasons with Borussia
Dortmund winning the title in 2002
alongside Tomas Rose its key and yen's
layman but it was his speller Amenia
bell fell which brought the striker to
national attention when he signed for
Armenia who were then in the Bundesliga
Reina negotiated a contract agreement
that the club would build him a new
house for every year he remained in bell
field it sounded like an incredible deal
but the player foolishly forgot to
specify the type of house in the deal
so Arminio simply built him one out of
Lego in each of his three seasons and
Arminia had previous with strange
contracts a year after Rainer arrived
they were able to sign keeper George
Koch on a free from PSV Eindhoven the
stopper who had been in the Netherlands
just three months had an agreement with
the club that if he suffered any anti
German abuse at any time he could walk
out of his contract for nothing it took
under a hundred days and he subsequently
joined Armenia helping them return to
the top flight after a relegation five
Blackpool Blackpool's promotion to the
Premier League in 2010 came as a shock
to everyone at the time the club stadium
had a stand missing having demolished in
2003 with the intention of redeveloping
the site the club's training ground was
so bad with outdoor toilets and no hot
water that manager Ian Holloway said he
would never use it again a promise he
broke immediately when it became clear
the facilities would not be improved
meanwhile to celebrate promotion Club
chair and Owen oyster paid himself 11
million pounds the highest salary in the
Premier League
Holloway's stewardship in the top flight
was entertaining if unpredictable with
the club scoring 55 goals the 10th best
record on the league while conceding 78
the worst offense in the division the
Tangerines did the double over Liverpool
and beat Spurs but conceded three or
more goals in 15 of their 38 matches
poisons huge salary left the club no
money to spend and they finished 19th
and
to the championship the lack of money
saw the squad shrink to just six people
as players were offered contracts with
reduced wages while Robbie founder
turned down a proposal of 100 pounds a
week to play for them the oyster ensued
fans who criticized them for defamation
and it since presided over further to
relegations Blackpool finally was put up
for sale in 2017 for Venky's by
Blackburn every fan thinks their club
has the worst Oilers but Blackburn
supporters may just be right in 2010
Venky's an Indian chicken and animal
vaccine corporation acquired Rovers for
just over 40 million pounds with the
club 20 million pounds in debt
Blackburn have been Premier League
champions just 15 years earlier and
Venky's charmed fans with talk of
ambition before sacking Sam Allardyce a
coach who had never been relegated with
the club in 13 they appointed Steve keen
who had never managed before and began
searching for a marquee signing but with
seemingly no idea of what was actually
possible think he's offered Ronaldinho
130k a week to move to you at park then
tried to loan in David Beckham before
ending up with 30-year old rocky Santa
Cruz and Ruben Regina from Barcelona's
BT they eventually finished 15 and the
next year got relegated to the
championship average players were given
superstar wages with the club spending
115 percent of their income on player
salaries and going through another six
managers in five years

pounds more into the club but it was too
late as they suffered to motion again in
2017 3des Nielsen if you're going to pay
a world-record fee for a pair you better
be sure he's good and if you're a club
the size of Rael Bettis doubly so the
Savile side made a statement of intent
in 1998 when they bought Brazilian
winger de Nielson for 21.5 million two
million pounds more than Ronaldo had
cost into the previous year de Nielsen
was 20 and it already won the copper
America but he was also a one-footed
step-over merchant who is more concerned
with looking good than being good
Bettis having finished 8 the year before
the white man arrived came in 11th in
his first season and got relegated in a
second with de nielsen contributing five
goals in nearly 70 games he ended up a
World Cup winner thanks to a bit part
role in Brazil's 2002 squad but his club
career got worse and worse with time
spent in France Saudi Arabia the USA
Greece and Vietnam
where did the first notable thing since
this big transfer becoming the highest
paid player in the history of Vietnamese
football Bettis have not spent more than
nine million on a single player since -
Thiago and Neymar's release clauses

almost a decade as the best club in the
world

they picked up six league titles and
three Champions League made the blogger
honor think that nobody would ever want

awakening Thiago the 22 year old future
of their midfield had been handed a new
contract two years earlier with a 90
million euro release goals but a clause
in the agreement negotiated by
perigordian peps brother and Thiago's
agent said that if Thiago failed to play
at least 30 minutes in 60% of fascist
League games his release goals were
dropped to 18 million euros a bargain
for a youngster had just won the
under-21 euros for a second time it had
been named player of the tournament pet
arriving a barn that summer told the
club II only wanted Thiago and the
Spaniard was on his way to Germany
leaving Barcelona --then de Santos and
Alex song to cover javi in Iniesta and
Barcelona just didn't learn for years on

million euros wrongly assuming that no
