If they leave due to lack of ambition that they were promised it harms us getting potential replacements. 

Expand  

The club does not lack ambition. It lacks the ability to spend the money it has at its disposal due to rules that have recently been introduced. Big difference.

They could, but there is a bigger danger they leave if we have a poor season. Not signing players do send out a negative signal.

There is a difference between someone playing so well that we are unable to keep hold of them, and them leaving because they don't see the club being able to match their ambitions. But you knew that right?

I accept that signing better players increases the possibility of a good season. What it doesn't do is remove the temptation Bruno might have to join Man City/Real Madrid, or remove Gordon's interest in a vengeful redemption arc in the city of Liverpool. 

 

Players might leave - that's something you just have to come to terms with. Raising the point in the context of a lack of signings just reads like trying to find yet more reasons to be miserable and critical.

We can spend though this summer, if we dont get anything done that looks like a lack of ambition.

I think its fair concerns raised, but fair enough call it out like you want.

We've already spend around £60m. Maybe the club is trying to be a bit more careful not to get their fingers burnt with PSR again?

We will spend if we can. However the new rules are double edged. If you waste the money it will mean sales required next season. Absolutely nothing to do with the clubs ambition. We’ve allegedly being trying to break the clubs transfer record for the last three weeks. Which would Max our allotted spending this window (£110m approx).

What the club hasn't done is helped itself expand that spending power by finding new sponsors and revenue streams. The only new sponsors we've managed to find in three years is a fake events company in Saudi Arabia that's already owned by our owners.

Aye, and with virtually nothing of value to sell from the squad before the takeover, our overall position was shite to start with. Generating money is hard enough without any thing to trade. So now we might have to trade one of our post takeover signing to even keep up.  And to make that even more vomit inducing, it could be we might end up selling to one of the scummy six, it's such an unfair situation.

We literally announced a new sponsorship deal (VT Markets) a week or so ago. And spent our tour in Japan drumming up as much interest as possible.  Also, there's been lots of announcements over the last couple of years, I think most are new 'Official Club Partners' you can find listed on the clubs website.

 

You make it sound like they done nowt, which is cobblers.

They have done quite a lot of sponsors, however most of them where an open goal in terms of how easy/obvious they where to do.

Yeah little club partners, fair enough. 

 

I was more talking about big name, big money, front of matchday shirt, training ground, training kit, warm up kit type sponsors.

A lot of wailing in here

Chelsea definitely need to shift Chalobah, noone seems to be linked with him?

He’s the one I’d take if we don’t want Guehi. Allows us CB/RB presence at a decent level. Fee won’t cost the earth either. Could probably sell him for minimum loss or par and upgrade next summer. Or he does well and we keep him.

[Matt1892]

Would Chalobah improve our starting eleven when everyone is fit?

He hasnt played much in his career mind. I think Todibo was the one we should have prioritised.

I’d say he’s a better passer and better on the ball under pressure although Schar is an excellent passer as well and better at driving forward with the ball. Defensively I’m not sure how much there is between them in terms of positioning and in the air but Guehi’s passing is exceptional

Not for me.

 

He's younger but Schar is a better player.
