KennyUtd Posted Tuesday at 18:20 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:20 5 minutes ago, timeEd32 said: First of all, we don't even know that we have £60m to spend (or, more accurately, approx. £18-20m in costs to add) without growing revenue or reducing costs later. But if we assume we do have that much to spend with no strings attached then we have until June 30, 2025 to spend it so that just feels like a bad faith argument. I can understand wanting it to be used to improve the team for this season and the associated frustration, but "won't spend" harkens back to Ashley and it's quite clear that's not what's going on here. It's not clear though is it. It screams of couldn't get the deal over the line. We've been there and done that. It's poor man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menace Posted Tuesday at 18:22 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:22 There was absolutely no reason for them to cup tie a player if he's about to be sold. If we still go ahead with it after they've took the piss multiple times - we are fucking mugs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted Tuesday at 18:23 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:23 Sick of Crystal Parish now, like. God/Dave, if you’re reading this; cancel that whole “ending world hunger” wish, I’ve changed my mind.

Upthemags Posted Tuesday at 18:23 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:23 1 minute ago, Ikon said: My feeling is that Guehi is the shiny toy Howe wants, and he won’t be happy with any of the other ones on the shelves. Seriously though, I’m just saying this because I see quite a few blaming Eales and PM here and there. Having said that, I’d be shocked if PM didn’t have quite a few options as alternatives. Not looking very promising as of now on the whole. This is very obviously what is going on. One of the best identifiers of young talent spends 4 weeks "negotiating" for the most overpriced asset you could probably find in the country right now. The same guy who picked Heung Min Son and Sadio Mane out of the crowd for a pittance. But be careful - you'll catch a lot of flack for this one. You are right though.

Shearergol Posted Tuesday at 18:23 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:23 Massively overpriced. Feel a bit concerned that anyone in the club wants to blow our entire budget in him tbh. However, bringing no RCB and no RW in this windows is incredibly bad. at least we have 8 keepers now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking very promising as of now on the whole. Came here to say pretty much the same, you can guarantee Guehi was Howes top choice and it’s not looking likely now.. you’ve gotta wonder how this might go down between management. Him starting tonight doesn’t change a whole lot, but obviously suggests that a deal isn’t imminent. This thread will be hilarious tonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAK Posted Tuesday at 18:24 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:24 What I find strange is there’s no noise about alternative CBs other than Tapsoba last week which wasn’t realistic. Is Guehi an opportunist attempt to sign a player (contract winding down and rivals not wanting him at the price we were willing to pay) and it’s him or nothing?

BermyToon Posted Tuesday at 18:24 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:24 1 hour ago, SUPERTOON said: We have already spent close to 40, can’t see us having more if we spend another 70 on Guehi. I was thinking about this, and would love to be corrected on it. If the constraint is £105M in cumulative losses over a three-year period, then that's £35M/year. If we can recognize sales right away and amortise player purchases over the duration of their (4-5 year) contracts, then we should be able to spend at least £100M every year in new transfers. Example, buy players worth £100M and give them four-year contracts, you only recognize £25M in losses in the current year and you have room for an extra £10M in other losses.
