It's the hot topic again, so we might as well see where the forum consensus lies. I'm going for £141M–160M, but I've overestimated the spend by a little bit in every window so far.
-
-
£25M per season, according to reports. Seventh highest in the league by a decent margin, but still at least £15M off the lowest of the "big six".
-
If it's generally accepted that we spent around £50M in January, £115M last summer, and £95M the previous January, it's got to be £120M+ this summer for me. I reckon we'll land around the £150M mark, with two-to-three signings of Isak, Bruno, and Botman types, and two-to-three Pope, Targett, and Burn types.
-
This is a very good question.
-
Aye. I was doing my usual nerdy spreadsheet yesterday after work and there's no way we come out of this summer being totally content, it's just not possible these days unfortunately. Still, we'll be significantly stronger than we were at the beginning of last season, and look how that turned out.
-
Aye, was thinking about boshing them in there but there haven't been any direct links just yet.
-
Was just waiting until it was double confirmed, really, which should be on Wednesday. Might get more specific news on the fee then, too.

Was that post serious?

Think Howe would properly love Adams, like. He's got a touch of Kanté about him and loads of room to get even better.
-
If we thought he was "in the region" of £50M last summer, there's absolutely no way we think his value has held after another 12 months have passed and they've been relegated.

Where are the Stewarts?
-
Kanté seemingly joining Benzema at Al Ittihad. (Romano) Just the €100M per year.

(The sponsor will be shopped on, btw, so it might well look a bit off. Wor @JonBez comesockconfirmed that the shoot was all done with sponsorless shirts.)

You could make a fairly educated guess, though. We're seeing estimates of between £60M and £150M, as it stands. That's quite a range.
