Guest Brazilianbob Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I am not so sure we can afford to bring in any more players after Erdinc. By my reckoning we have already spent about £22m on Cabaye, Ba and Marveaux in terms of a transfer fee for Cabaye and wages at a rough guess of £30k a week over 4 years, 3 years, and 5 years respectively. That doesn't take into account any agents fees or signing on fees either! If you factor in Erdinc at £6.5m transfer fee plus similar wages over 5 years which amounts to £7.8m you begin to see that we will have spent almost £37m on transfer fees and wages if we capture Erdinc on the above figures.

You've forgot to minus wages for Campbell, Nolan and Carroll, which would be £25m over 5 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 With two months left, this must be a new record for getting the excuses in early. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, I overlooked that, so we should be ok to bring in another striker plus wages for 5 years at the very least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 We will sign at least one expensive player and one or two £2-5million player. There is no way we won't get a big signing in after selling Carroll for all that money. They surely can't think we're happy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinho lad Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 With the exception of Lovenkrands being released, I can't see anything on there that's so unlikely. agreed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Me neither. Just ignore him if you think he talks shite though, it's getting a bit boring everyone jumping on his every word. That's not to say I always agree with him on any particular thing btw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shayno Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 We don't need strikers with potential at the moment, we have Ranger and Airey coming through and anymore youngsters would just be stifling their development imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 We don't need strikers with potential at the moment, we have Ranger and Airey coming through and anymore youngsters would just be stifling their development imo You honestly think either of them could make it?
