The debt doesn't matter. Though I'm sure I've seen they don't have much PSR headroom without sales. Probably why they're struggling to get to Mbeumo deal done.

How can the debt not matter?

 

Where's the line between a club being sustainable and bankrupt?

Because as long as they make a profit there golden which they will with there commercial revenues. It's so stacked on the cartels favour.

I just hope we have people who can sell the club to the player well enough when we negotiate. 

Mbuemo wanted a hefty wedge but with a bit of persuading with champions league football and guaranteed first team starter surely we could've gotten that wage down a bit maybes added incentive based clauses. 

I don't think a player can afford the club...

 

And that's my bad joke quota for the day filled! 😁

Depends what his starting point is/was. If it’s miles away from what we’re prepared to offer, it’s a waste of time of bothering.

The club doesn’t even need to try that hard to sell itself, Eddie will get you playing for your national team, you’ll win silverware and you’ll be adored. The other lads love it here and there’s a great team spirit where we try to hold onto our players. If players don’t buy into that, they can hoy themselves into the sea

Exactly 👍🏻 

 

Some who’ve signed more have lost players also.

highly doubtful we get any business done in June, luckily July is close, probably new PSR period will bring more action...

 

I wouldnt sell any important player Livramento or Isak, unless we can force obscene offer out of Big 6.

 

we have more than enough task to strengthen the first 11 and the bench especially for next season where we will have lot more games, injuries, fatigue etc. to replace outgoing crucial players would be too much extra stuff to deal with especially without a proper DoF in place.

Who have Spurs signed?

 

Tel from Bayerb

Danso from Brentford

Vuscokvic from Hajuk

 

[LFEE]

Any pre July movement for us would be Villa (?) and I’ve a feeling WHU as they seem to be ripping it up and starting again (?) Maybe Forest also (?) … sure others will know better who’s borderline PSR… Everton, Burnley and Leicester?

Had two of them already though, so in terms of how much ‘stronger’ they are from the end of last season, it’s basically negligible (unless you want to count the manager, which I suppose is fair enough)

Exactly…

 

Liverpool and Man City aside it’s debatable who’s massively strengthened. Chelsea I guess but they were ahead of us as stated.

Lee Ryder and The Chronicle are the fucking pits. They haven't got a clue. You might as well empty a bag of Scrabble tiles into a bowl of Alphabeti Spaghetti and then pour the contents of the bowl on top of a wordsearch if you want to read a more accurate transfer report.

It should still matter. For example Man Ut’d debt has only increased. There should be a clause that says you must pay off a percentage of your loan each year, and another that says your debt can only be your annual income multiplied by so much.

[beardsleymagic]

Also if their sponsors suddenly decide to not renew or massively reduce their payments (unlikely I know but still a possibility) then, with all that debt they would be in grave danger of going under.

 

Now we, with no debt and with some of the wealthiest owners in the world. Who are not allowed to invest however much they want into the club that they own. Can't push on in case they decide to sell up and leave us in debt and unable to finance the club as it is and thus would be in danger of going under.

 

Hold on...... This is looking suspiciously like double standards here.... Could this whole PSR thing just be to protect the previous bigger clubs and actually have nothing to do with sustainability?

It should matter but doesn’t, profit and loss are all. &nbsp

This thread is absolutely minging. Can we actually save it for transfer rumours?

[kingxlnc]

Seeing Clark and Carroll threads bumped makes me think we’re signing back up home grown players for CL

 

would be progress at this rate

Also Chelsea & Man City have only done their business this early coz they are in the club World Cup
