Thiago Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 (edited) If they're relegated they absolutely are fucked financially. It's a stay of execution in many ways. Their first team squad is chronically bloated. We're talking like almost 45 players involved this season. They should save about £12m in wages when Gylfi Sigurdsson, Fabian Delph, and Cenk Tosun leave but I'd imagine any available money (before further departures) will be funnelled into central defenders. Yerry Mina isn't bad but he's injury prone. Then you have the English quartet of Ben Godfrey, Michael Keane, Jarrad Branthwaite, and Mason Holgate. It's debatable if any of that group are good enough, let alone good enough to play in a Frank Lampard system. Edited March 29, 2022 by Thiago Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, even Bruce had a 'system' it was just written with a pen from a betting shop on a receipt from a service station. It doesn't necessarily mean complex or even successful. Rather, under Lampard, defenders play much higher up the field and they're asked to build out from the back. That's easier said than done as shown by the contrasting fortunes of Van Dijk and Maguire. The issue under him is compounded by the fact he often leaves his defenders open and facing 1v1 situations as we saw at Chelsea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think stadium costs are included in that loss figure, they're not included in the FFP calculation anyway and every club got a year off FFP for 19/20. So, yeah, absolute joke if no action is taken, the 18th placed club at the end of the season will rightly feel aggrieved that they were allowed to continue to sign players in January while the PL knew knowing they were already way over the FFP limit. Particularly in the context of it being at the same time as tightening the rules to limit us. If Everton had been challenging the big 6 for a Champions League place they 100% would be docked points.

Yeah I kinda liked the principle of FFP insofar that it could have lead to “sustainable” football. Obviously part of the problem was that it was partly driven by rich clubs trying to pull up the drawbridge. Just seemed mildly amusing because like you say, things have changed.
