TheBrownBottle Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 3 hours ago, Taylor Swift said: We just cannot afford deals like Mbeumo because there’s no chance we make our money back in the future. No one will pay £50m for him when he’s 29. This is the key issue. In hindsight, the Barnes deal was bad because of this issue. We won’t make our money back. Deals for Bruno, Isak, Gordon, Tonali, Botman, Hall and Livramento all worked out great. That’s the blueprint. I don’t think we’ll spend more than £20m on anyone over 25, it just doesn’t make sense. A winger and a CB both under 23 in the summer. PSR teaches you to think arse over tit when it comes to football finances. You don’t need to get your actual money back for a £50m player. If you sign a £50m player when he’s 25 on a five year deal, his fee is amortised to £10m per season. Sign a two year contract extension after three years and his amortised fee goes to £4m per season with £30m already amortised. So if you sell him a year after this, then there is only £16m left to amortise - in which case, if you sell him for £17m at 29 the you make £1m ‘profit’.

Sibierski Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I’m not fussed about Tomori. Wasn’t liked at all for England, no clubs have really made a move until spurs in their desperate situation. Had that one season peak at AC Milan. Likely an alright player, but not someone to lose sleep over when looking for a long term RCB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Need to add a dynamic, technical midfield player to the summer shopping list, the much lauded midfield 3 isn’t all that unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Don’t think we will bring anyone in still, however I think it does open up the possibility of a loan deal for us if any are available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Nice wee boost for next season. Didn’t look anywhere near good enough when he’s played, though obviously opportunities were fairly limited. Good luck to the lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMcQuillan Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I’m reminded of James Gandolfini’s character in In The Loop. Quote “Twelve thousand troops. But that's not enough. That's the amount that are going to die. And at the end of a war you need some soldiers left, really, or else it looks like you've lost.” Could do with signing someone.
