That seems a crazy bad deal for Villa 

Hopefully its a bad deal for Chelsea too seeing as they no doubt have a sell on % for Samuel but aye am not convinced Villa are getting a good deal at all.

Forget the specific players for a moment and you can see the potential appeal of a deal like this as it seems ripe for accounting shenanigans. There are a number of ways you could structure this, but I'm not sure what will be enforced.

Feel for Forest, they were haphazard but you can’t fault them for trying their best to build a side that could stay in the Premier League. It’s hard for them to attract quality players so they just threw money at it. It’s going to be an absolute nightmare for teams coming up from the Championship to compete in the PL with these regulations nowadays as most teams need a squad revamp when promoted to stand a chance of surviving 

 

Aye. Pretty sure the PL prefer the Norwich, Sheff Utd approach though. Go down meakly, provide entertainment to overseas fans by allowing the big clubs to score 5-6 goals against them with ease. Lovely stuff.

So we’re happy for the Sinister Six to cannibalise their nearest upstart contenders? All good here, nothing to see in the World’s Most Competitive League.

Removal of relegation by stealth. Get what they wanted by gaming the system

Duran will go to Chelsea for an inflated price and Gallagher will go to Villa for an inflated price. Both win from a PSR perspective and the overall difference between values remains the same. 


Isn’t that specifically what Juve and Barca got done for?

IIRC @brummie recently mentioned that Luiz looked a shell of his former self this past season and he wouldn’t be surprised/bothered if Luiz was moved on.

 

McKennie was Juventus’s assists leader last season. He’s clearly a good player if utilized correctly. Being dropped in mid-season to a drowning Leeds side isn’t a fair assessment of his ability.

I expect Emery to get a tune out of McKennie.
