None tbh, part exchange is bad for FFP. Need as much bookable profit as possible on the accounts so we have the freedom to go and buy who we actually want from elsewhere

Can do an exchange but dress it up as seperate transactions

You can, but if you're going to be outlaying the money in FFP terms anyway as you outline, there's no reason to limit yourself to just Liverpool's players given that they only have dross available for sale.

Makes negotiations a helluva easier when you have something they want, though, compared to other clubs who'll know you have £120m burning a hole in your pocket trying to rinse you.

The theory will be that they’ll give you an inflated price for the player they’re buying on account of you taking said dross off their hands.

 

Doing a ‘Vladdy’ as it’s known in the trade.

They have no player available for sale worth engaging in this for though. If we did engineer something like this it would be to our disadvantage, even if we got someone at a discount or created some extra FFP headroom.

Which players would you consider in a P/E?

 

I assume there's only Elliot and Nunez to consider?

 

I don't want Nunez but I'd have Elliot.

 

Only encourages those six cunts to stash players as assets even more. Send them a box filled with shit and some forks.

Said it before we’re going to look like proper arses if we can’t close this one out.


£30m is a clear indication we don’t really want him. It’s a £5m increase after like 7-10 days of the last bid, when stance has always been at least £40m :D 

 

Just a token offer. Imagine Liverpool doing that to us.

Most clubs don't keep failing at it and putting themselves in more and more perilous positions as a direct result I would imagine. 

 

 

 

 

Fair point, but unfortunately we're in a position where we'll need to haggle on most deals.

It might just be we are looking to see if we can sign Sesko first. Then if we do end up selling Isak for a MASSIVE fee, then we'll take up Wissa as well.

We need to shit or get off the pot with this one really soon. The scary prospect of Osula leading the line at Villa Park is getting more and more realistic.

 

I'm quite looking forward to it...well sort of. Had some flashes of potential, and Howe must see something in him otherwise don't think he would have been so embedded into the first team squad

None. Selling him to Liverpool is absolutely unacceptable in any scenario.

Absolutely this, I’d rather release him in 3 years for nothing than sell him to Liverpool.
