Aye but we did spend nearly £100m in January. So Isak will make it over £200m this year. Also looks like we still want Pedro for around £30m.

60M for a quality 22 year old striker who's only going to get better vs £70m for a quality 30 year old defender who's peaked already

Far more excited about Pedro than I ever was about Ekitike, suppose that's not saying much, but I am excited.

According to Watford fans no, Pedro is the better player and younger.

Yes that's what people would normally mean by a down payment, but people don't always use phrases literally or correctly. If he literally is talking about the initial payment of a transfer fee how on earth would he know that? Why would the club discuss with him the cash flow and how it effects payment structure of different possible transfers?

I doubt he's referring to the initial cash payment, if that was the case there's no issue, a £80m transfer can be paid over 4 years at £20m per year. I assumed by down payment he was referring to the main part of the transfer fee. As in £20m plus addons.

So Maddison wasn't a attacking recruit then?

I wouldn't expect him to have done much between the ages of 17 and 19.. Showing talent and showing that you're developing towards being a top player is what I'd expect and Watford fans certainly seem to have seen that.

Bastard, excited now and suddenly worried we won't sign him.

If we had £40m left we wouldn't be offering £30m for Pedro.

If signing a U.S International is unrealistic we might as well give up. Seriously, he's not nearly as much of a upgrade as Bruno was, nowhere near. No reason we cant sign him if we really want to

Jesus, the standard of goal keeping is awful

Not exactly half, 60m Euros down to 40m Euros is still significant obviously. Didn't he put in a transfer request?

Nearly all unless you include the entire entertainment industry which is almost exclusively on the left, but obviously they're all very working class and on the bread line..

Calvert-Lewin?, no thanks.

Yeah whether you pay all up front or in instalments over time makes no difference to FFP.

Just get a head start by going now. You can give up your U.K citizenship once they go independent. Then when you come back over as an illegal we can send you to Rwanda

Not sure what the point of thread titles even is anymore. Any news about Botman at all?

Then elected a corpse in the hope he'd do nowt at all and hes somehow managed to be the worst ever

Wasn't Bruno supposed to be Arsenals big midfield target? Seem to remember some of their fans saying they could do better.

Great to see that cretin unhappy.

Took it away from Joelinton as well, he's actively stopping us from scoring goals at this point.

The rage over Musk taking over Twitter is just wonderful. I didn't used to like the guy until now

I wish that would happen, because I'd definitely prefer Burnley to stay up. But I'm not expecting it, Burnley have 4 points from the last 6 games. Can they get 4 points from the next 2 games at home?, its possible but its really unlikely IMO.

The ref disallowed it himself initially, VAR corrected that so not sure why people are pissing all over VAR like
