It’s been stolen from Newcastle who sing it to their Italian midfielder who is partial to a flutter.
Who in turn stole it from Arsenal who sang it to Dani Ceballos and Arsenal probably stole it from some other club.

Not at all, but I feel there is one thing bemoaning the fact that your players don't get enough minutes but another thing actively coming out and saying "I will be influencing transfers".
