If DCL ends up being our highest earner because of signing him on a free, I'll be seething. Guy is gonna be on our books for so long. fuck.

 

I wouldn't be too bothered, Juventus will sign him for twenty million in January.

I'd take him for that price. 

I'm sure howe could persuade him to come in as a back up striker. 

With plenty of appearances of the bench and European and Cup games. 

He's already said he wants to be first choice at whatever club he goes to.

Why would you be seething about anything we do?

 

Eddie knows what he's doing, just trust him.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Believe it or not, PSR has made having an interest in the clubs financials pretty common. And I'd hate for us to eat up our wage budget on DCL.

Surely there’s no chance of this? We won’t break our wage structure and we won’t offer him a long contract either.

Wouldn't want him to be highest earner but I'd absolutely take DCL on a free!!

 

Possibly the 2nd best free transfer striker out there and would free up significant funds for our 2 other key areas, plus he's actually a good player playing in a shit team...we've seen that play before.

Isn't that how frees work? We pay him like 2x the wage he deserves, as we won't have to pay the transfer fee. And then we can never sell him as no one will agree to pay him what we have. So we keep extending his contract for fear of losing him on a free.

 

Fuck knows how we shifted Lloyd Kelly so quickly. 

 

I get I'm being pessimistic, like. This is all worst case scenario. 

 

(This is all without mentioning his injury record.)

Which until this current injury had been excellent for the last two seasons.

 

I know, which is why I haven't made it the base of my argument. Though you'd have concerns of him coming into an Eddie side that is notorious for being taxing on your body. We know Gordon said it was shock coming from Everton.

It is, but at the same time, barring an injury to Isak, you’d imagine him to be playing less minutes than he’s been at Everton, even with us having additional games.

Why would DCL be our highest earner?? Because of the silly Kelly rumour?

 

 

 

As @Weezertron said, the theory of getting significantly more than your ‘worth’ because you’re on a free, is probably valid.

 

That said I’d still doubt we (or anyone else) would put him on Isak/Bruno/Targett type money.

True, but he would be far from the highest earner anyway. We are not signing DCL with a wage of 120-150k a week.

He’s reportedly on 100k at Everton. If the theory of getting increased wages when you’re on a free, holds, then he may be getting up towards that.

 

His age could dictate otherwise like.

Really unsure how we will approach summer in terms how much we are prepared to spend and the quality of players

 

We could get DCL and Nicholas Kuhn probably way cheaper than a Delap and Akliouche/Bakayoko etc 

 

CB I'm not sure on where there are cheaper players / bargains / very talented players we could go for. Guehi, Huijsen etc are gonna cost at least £40-50m presumably

Not in a PSR world.
