Froggy Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 24 minutes ago, Nobody said: That's how pretty much every transfer is structured (except Newcastle) , but we never talk about them like that. You've bought him for £73m or whatever it was, no need to pretend anything else. You never talk about them like because it ruins the smaller clubs narrative that £100m is going here there and everywhere. The house comparison is dumb but at the same time it just helps prove my point that the "ESL clubs" are hardly ruining football splashing out £100m+ on players this summer. They're paying it off in installments because they can't afford it outright, the same reason people get a mortgage. We've signed Sancho in a deal worth £73m, sure, but the fact still remains we've only spent £14.6m this summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy days then. Why all the whining? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 In terms of what you're spending, fucking hell. You keep living in your own little world where you've not spent anything this summer, conveniently ignoring all of the previous signings you've made.

Can only re-emphasize what others have said that if you "count" it like that, you've got to consider all other installments due this year for players like Beek, Diallo, Telles, Maguire, Fernandes, Bissaka, James, Fred & Dalot brought in the 4 previous seasons as well.

I merely responded to the notion that the ESL clubs are spending silly money this summer. They're not. Nobody mentioned anything about previous transfer windows so it's completely irrelevant. No matter what way you look at it, Man United have spent £14.6m on new transfers this summer. That's nothing but a cold, hard fact. We can reassess at the end of the window.

Decky Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 (edited) I think people are also making the point that Man Utd have spent more than £14.6m because if we’re talking instalments then you need to include instalments due on previous transfers that got paid this summer. For example if we were to have this conversation next summer you’d have to include another £14.6m for Sancho because it’s an outgoing transfer fee. In terms of spend you’re right in that £14.6m has left the club for Sancho this year but it’s just a complicated way to look at spending because you’d have to see what else left the club for players with previous commitments. The best way to look at it probably it to say what debt you’ve taken on. Like when you buy a car on finance your financial records will put you in debt for the whole amount straight away and the payment plan doesn’t matter unless you miss payments.

Also hide behind the curtains when Madrid come looking for Varane cash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression they’ve been making a loss in recent years, and that their owner is tight and uninterested. But after covid and another year of no CL football they’re spending big. All they need to do is pay for players in Installments and sell Willock to us for £20m. Now they have a positive net spend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 How much did Man Utd pay out this summer for previous transfer instalments? You have to include those fees. If you don’t include that then Sancho cost £14.6m because you’re not gonna include it next year either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
