It’s a miracle we’ve achieved what we have so far given FFP. 2 hours ago, Dr.Spaceman said: I'd have zero issues with this if FFP wasn't a thing The problem with FFP is that it doesn't seemingly move with the times. Valuations and wages are way up yet the FFP limits remain the same. I suppose you could argue that commercial revenue can increase (suspect TV does) but I bet its not in line. Unless FFP limits have been reviewed/increaded in which case ignore my garbage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club is running on a much more professional level now, and has given the cold shoulder to all journos. Tonali & Livramento…..nobody had a clue. I’d expect the same on our next target. It will be a new name as of yet not mentioned. Agree. Announce 'Dan Ashworth's smokescreen' for thread title Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 1 hour ago, Toonjam88 said: I think he is one of those players they would go for if he became available even if it isn’t a position that’s massively important. For me I think he was a possible next year player on our list. But as we have seen with Isak if it’s there to be done they will do it. Not sure we will be able to do it this window, but we definitely seem to prefer spending our money on long term targets over short term needs. If we can't get the right wide man in, I could easily see us spending on another midfielder instead if the right one became available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams never do all their deals early, it just doesn’t happen, but people say this every summer. Loads of time yet and they will be fine integrating with the team, just like they are every other season. Edited July 6, 2023 by reefatoon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be a solid, no risk signing. More reliable than ASM but less exciting. As for Bonucci.. yes fucking please. Couldn't care less what age he is. Its one for the romantics.
