Weezertron Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago 22 minutes ago, Shadow Puppets said: Howe said something pretty telling today... that we don't necessarily need to lose any more players this window in order to bring them in. I guess the subtext is that we don't necessarily have to sell Miggy in order to get a new RW in, but he did say between this window and the next there would need to be player trading, in and out, to remain compliant... just not necessarily this window. Planning to cover your PSR deficit with future sales seems naive, if that’s how I’ve read it. Who are we selling between this window and next? The dead wood we can’t already shift? Tripper and Wilson? Who will be even older by that point or out of contract? Unless he means a crown jewel or a wonderkid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he means a crown jewel or a wonderkid. I guess what he's saying is there's no pressure to offload Miggy in a cut price deal in the next two weeks. Say the Guehi deal goes through AND we get a RW for £30-£40m... we could in theory lose Miggy, Lascelles and others anytime between now and the end of June next year to be compliant again, and with more commercial revenue coming in, that deficit might not be as great come June as it would appear now. But what the fuck do I know 😀 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what the fuck do I know 😀 That’s how I read it too, but my worry is who is buying Miggy and Lascelles between now and next year for any sort of fee? Thats not a guarantee. So when we inevitably can’t, are we OK with selling Gordon? personally I’d rather we buy what we can, and not be relying on future sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what the fuck do I know 😀 That makes sense anyway, and it ties in with how we are doing our recruitment. Not really sure there's a better alternative, it gives us another window to sell surplus players, and if we can't then we'll have to sell purples for a big profit. Unfortunately we can't force other clubs to buy our surplus, and we can't force them to go to clubs they don't want. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what the fuck do I know 😀 I think some people need to let the club run things and worry if they happen when they happen. Granted there’s an argument that they shouldn’t have got themselves into the situation re PSR at the end of June. But they don’t appear to be behaving recklessly as per Chelsea so for me I’m just happy to let things play out, I don’t get that worried about PSR ramifications with signings.

WilliamPS Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago I wouldn’t worry about PSR sales, as before claiming a sale is needed you need to know the revenue and costs. On the revenue side it would be pretty dumb to do a sale they don’t want to do now, then find at the end of the year by finishing 3rd in the league and having great cup runs has generated more TV money and prize money and the sale was never needed. Or they get another commercial deal done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy the ride. Exciting “generational” talent that could be part of our spine for many years to come. He’s an investment. Hope we get this lad in.

But what the fuck do I know 😀 I didn’t think we’d do this again based on how June ended, though how nervy it is greatly depends on the size of the gap. But the new Premier League market advantage is having money to spend in June. Hopefully we can get ourselves on the other side of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
