ponsaelius Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 While I agree there's a chance we won't be in the CL for 4-5 years, there's also a reasonable outside chance we will. West Ham and Leicester have both not been far away in recent years. Bit of momentum can go a long way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 2 hours ago, The Prophet said: So far this summer: Darren Eales appointed as CEO. Dan Ashworth appointed as sporting director. Sven Botman, Nick Pope and Matt Targett brought in. Isaac Hayden, Freddie Woodman, Jeff Hendrick and Ciaran Clark shipped out. Additions made to the academy and womens team. Refurbishments made to the stadium. Refurbishments made to the training ground. Sponsorship with Fun88 terminated. New sponsorship with Noon. This lot don't fuck about do they? Just need those two (I would say three) signings to really make a statement. As mentioned countless times, I'm pretty confident they will Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will just be incredibly hard. Big six squad values are 2-3 times that of ours and they are likely to spend just as much as we are spending. They also have sellable assets that we sadly lack for the foreseeable future. Then there’s the next tier of well ran clubs that are spending too that we would have to overcome.

CEO as "to be advised" and Derek Wright still listed as senior physio as well. I wonder when the cut off was for publication? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the sellable assets are a big gap to bridge. I was surprised to see Chelsea’s squad value go up so much, but when you check the details you see that they have 32 players listed . It includes all their army of loanees who are now back at the club. Spurs’ value (and presumably some of the others too) is bolstered by guys like Reguilon and Ndombele who are obviously not going to play a part this season. It’s probably going to take a couple of years, but you’ve got a lot of money that’s going to come in and the sponsorship deals have already started. More importantly in the short term you have an excellent manager, a squad that has already performed vastly better and the full backing of the fans which will likely lead to an improved home record. This year is a wild card because of the World Cup. I genuinely believe that anything can happen, although it should be Man City, Liverpool and the rest. The following year will be key, particularly with (as seems likely) five CL places up for grabs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bompeter Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 (edited) This suggests we really aren’t being bankrolled by the Saudis in any way. Pretty disappointing.

ponsaelius Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Do find it a bit alarming that they wouldn't just put their own cash in like other club owners do. Unless there is FFP benefits I am missing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
