healthyaddiction Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 11 minutes ago, Conjo said: I read it as the 3 + 0.8 being included in the 14.5 + 2.7. If the 6.5 add-on is achieved it would put the total at 23.7 which is well beyond 20m. Why not write "well beyond 25m" if the total was 27.5...? Either way it's a great deal for us. Because the reported deal was 20, so they're saying its well beyond the reported 20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it hasnt worked out for him here but It’s a hell of a reach to suggest Lloyd Kelly single handedly lost us a game where the scoreline was 2 nil to the opposition. is his goal saving block against Chelsea the reason we won the Carabao cup?

Pretty cheap deal for them really, but still decent money for us. Free money basically. Great deal for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Wonderful. I'm going to assume those "other costs" are agent fees or bonuses or something, so not to NUFC. We probably get around £15m. Let's just say his wages were £100k and skip any debate about that. That means the combination of player sales income and wage savings is roughly £10m per year for the next three years.

Wolfcastle Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Its always been good and just to shift dead wood but in these PSR times its become more satisfying than signing a player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Howe has shown plenty of times that he can get the best out of a player and with a run in the team, Kelly might have been decent. But with Burn, Botman, Hall, Tino and even Targett, we're well stocked on the left side of defence. It's good money for a player that we don't really need. He seems sound enough, hope he does well over there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 If we're now in the business of flipping players then this is the blueprint. Sign in the summer, park him for 6 months then move him on for a (relatively) filthy profit. That cash goes straight into this year's accounts and, I assume, mean we're in the clear for PSR this summer. Throw in the Almiron money and it should mean we can strengthen with several players we can actually use next season. I'd still like us to carry on looking for more players in Kelly's situation and repeat it. It's obviously difficult but it's clearly possible. No axe to grind with him really, he's decent at best but seemed to try and didn't whinge about it, he's also landed up at a huge club too so he's won too. Juve are the only losers in the whole affair tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll be streaming the crucifixion of Sporting Director Giuntoli live on RAI1. Signing Kelly for £20m and letting Huijsen go for £12m has gone down swimmingly.
