Miguel Almirón (now playing for Atlanta United)

[Ben]

Fuck this fair value shit, Man Utd, Arsenal and Chelsea have over spent by millions on average players for years.

[Bimpy474]

Yeah fair market value my arse, if you're a reluctant seller you get whatever you can. You rinse the buyer if they're daft enough to go mental ala Chelsea.

Well he's caused a shitstorm on this place for no reason if he's made it all up.

He got every fact and figure wrong in the henderson story 

[BShearer]

it could be that we overestimated the CL revenue for this season. we probably did not think we gonna end up in group of death and finish 4th with only 1 win in 6. many other groups we are easily 3rd at least or even 2nd in some with more wins and more bonus money for later rounds. or at least some consolation prize money from EL after being 3rd in group.

with the coeff points play a big part of the total CL prize money we get fucked really with the shit coeff points.

we will get something like 30m pounds more or less from Uefa. Arse and City will get 60-65m easily even if they lose and exit CL right next round which they wont. if they go till the end its more like 90-100m overall.

 

and now we try offset the projected difference by selling players quickly. this may be the reason as long as we only have outgoings this window. but last 3 days of the window can be crazy, teams done nothing for 30 days can go crazy in last 24 hour. if we only sell 1-2 players without a decent one coming in thats probably us needing to balance the spending.

[TaylorJ_01]

He is 30 next month, believe it or not. Given his frustating play at times I think probably decent deal if we can cash in.

 

So long as it allows us to upgrade.

 

If money were no object here, he'd be a great backup.

WHAT the fuck?!

We obviously knew we'd be getting far less than the other English clubs. If any of our plans required us reaching the knockout round (without knowing the groups) then we're run by morons, which I don't think we are.

 

I do think it's possible that a combination of no Europa League + our current position in the table has made it closer than we'd like.

We might also calculating with the loss of CL revenue next season alongside not being in Europe at all which is currently almost 50/50, we can finish 6/7th if we pick up form but also 9-10th if we dont which is some less money from PL too instead of the 4th plce previous year.

Adidas coming in will help but may only offset the losses from no CL revenue next time rather than add to it on top of that. they keep fucking tweaking the FFP rules but currently its on a rolling 3 years mode, so the less money we "lose" this season is better for next as well.

 

out of Wilson, Trippier, Almiron imo only one will be gone in a week time despite the late rumours. if two or all three with no incomings wow thats not good lol and probably finance related sales due to hard ffp limits.

The problem is it feels like we are under super scrutiny and waiting for liverfool and Tottenham to jump on anything. It felt like it went the other way for asm on that basis and under valued. 

There’s nothing Liverpool or Spurs could do about it at all.  Al-Shabab aren’t owned by PIF

Yeah but you can imagine the fuss from klopp and the rest. Klopp smirking through his  gnashes while shrugging his shoulders and saying that seems a fair transfer.  
 

[Menace]

Who the fuck cares what Liverpool think... not an ounce of outrage from them when Fabinho and Henderson got binned off. They've benefited from the Saudi League more than we have.

All he could do is gnash, though.  There wouldn’t be anything they could do to block it.

Miggy worth 50 mil at least then.  

[The Prophet]

 

[SUPERTOON]

Can’t see a replacement coming until the summer.

He’s worth £25m to a Saudi team. He’d be class over there against shit defences

I find this hilarious. Sanchos perceived value dropped from 130m to 25m in less than 4 years.. Such a Manchester United thing.

Well he’s been significantly better than both, so I’d take 75.

FMV would mean no club getting a steal and no club haggled into paying over the odds. Doesn't factor in bidding wars or how desperate a club is to sell or sign. Its the same with sponsorship that's mostly based on what could happen not on an exact repeat of the previous sponsors showcase.

Even attempting to regulate all that is anything but fair.

Edwards saying our target to replace Miggy is Gibbs White. Yes please, although not really the same position

No chance though. We would be talking 50-60m at least. That said, if we are upgrading who wouldnt cost that much. Would be fantastic though. Could see the rumours of Jonathan David being true as well if Wilson is shipped out.

If Miggy goes for 17-20 we could easily spend 50-60 if we give them a 5 year deal
