TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 It seems to me that Ashley won't spend big because he wants the books to balance with no outsanding debt in order to make the club an attractive prospect to any potential buyer. Trouble is the fat git seems to think that makes the club worth more than potential buyers are prepared to pay. Or instead, he wants do the absolute bare minimum to survive in the league and pocket the lucrative television deals etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Have Ajax come into some money? Already bought Tadic and seems like Daley Blind is going back there. Didn't think they'd be able for those wages I know it was last season but they did sell Sanchez and Klaassen for nearly £70m and always sell players for a lot most seasons, might have been sitting on that money....maybe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Business done by Fulham and West Ham fully illustrate that this club is never going anywhere under the fat cunt who I fucking hate more with each passing day. The fact that even though the transfer fees have rocketed these last few years and still our record transfer is from before this prick bought us is just taking the piss. It's amazing but you can indeed find more hate for him, despite thinking you hated him enough already Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Seri was linked with Barcelona last year. He wasn't 'linked', he was about to sign until the deal fell through at the last minute after Nice noticed a loophole in his release clause and hiked the price.

Ketsbaia Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 He was strongly linked with Chelsea too, although Jorginho looks set to sign instead. Was he really THAT desperate to leave Nice that he'd resort to Fulham? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Shaqiri to Liverpool for £13.5 mil seems a good deal. Wonder if it will set off the Ritchie to Stoke, Townsend to us, Antonio to Palace merrygoround Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 They haven't signed anyone from Lille for 20 million anything from what I can see. But of course if it means we can pour another glass of misery onto our situation let's pretend they have. You know, we're not the only club not spending big sums on players, I've looked at forums of other clubs and a lot of them are saying the "we're being left behind" stuff too.

Infinitely Content Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 All those clubs aside B'mouth will absolutely spend anyway. We will as well, I reckon. Somewhere around the £50m mark, whilst breaking our transfer record. I just think jumping in here to pile on the misery every time another club is linked with a transfer north of like £15m is a pointless exercise. Regarding the left behind stuff, I just think if say 10 clubs are in similar situation to us in terms of transfers, then I genuinely can't see how we're being left behind.

How it's taken until mid-July to get rid of Conte is shambolic imo. They will be fine I suspect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
