KennyUtd Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 5 minutes ago, Yorkie said: We also offered nowhere near that amount if you believe Howe. Which in this case I do. £70m was the upper end of what Palace were asking for. It was big money though, that's certain. Now we seem terrified to spend because of PSR but they would have known all that back in the summer. A couple of signings might win us a trophy this season too. So frustrating man.

Just have it open all season since no cunt can afford to sign anyone anyway. Said this at the weekend - Sky Sports might probably try to make it happen as their DEADLINE DAY AND IT'S LIVE is going to be another one where virtually nowt happens to due to shitty PSR!

Exactly why Sky will now be filling their metaphorical pants....nothing to get anyone watching and are probably watching their bank balance falling by the second. A situation they helped create coming back to bite them on the arse...and no doubt they'll be the first to push change to help their 6 back up and running Edited January 21 by gjohnson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Compared to subscriptions and game break advertising I’m not convinced SSN is the golden egg laying goose like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I think Sky would be more worried with the lack of transfers in that it will result in fewer 'names' being signed from abroad as they have no resale value once they hit 26/27 which makes the league less marketable overall. And then social media takes over and Tik Tok becomes the primary medium for consumption of output Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bet we are glad we did now. Spending that sort of money on a centre back is looking increasingly dubious as the PSR shackles kick in. It would have prevented us spending money for a long time on other areas without selling key players. The transfer market is well and truly bunged up thanks to PSR. Transfer fees will be on a downward trend in this country at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not as convinced about this as some of you. They challenge for the title (poorly, ok) and are in the CL every year. There's no real reason why Isak wouldn't go there for the right money. They can't afford him though, so it's moot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 For all the Isak talk it’s Sesko they went for in the summer, and I expect them to go for him again. I suppose it’s not a rumour that creates as much engagement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PIF finally wake up and are able to spend at will. We have a bigger ceiling than Arsenal - even if they are bigger right now. Saka is still very young. If Arteta gets binned, they could drop off a bit if they don't get his successor right. Meanwhile we have a strong English core, Gordon on the other flank, Tino behind him. Englands first choice left side and right side pairing for WC 2026. Jobs a good un. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isak has played himself into the bracket of players where there are only 2 or 3 clubs that could realistically sign him in the middle of a contract.

Ben Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I feel so sorry for Rashford, poor bloke just wants to wake up in the morning, pull on a pair of boots and play football like he used to when he was a kid ....................................so long as he gets £350,000 a week.
