I'm not sure Man U have the cash for this without offloading someone expensive. PSR headroom is different to actual cash, and I think the delay on Mbeumo was due to lack of cash flow. To have cash you need owners to plough money in - whereas I don't think Manure's owners do that - it all gets generated from operations/sales - and they don't have enough to cover that expenditure at the moment. 

 

Even staying within the PSR limit of £35m a year losses assumes someone is pumping £35m worth of cash in every year to cover those losses. If the owners are just using Manure as a cash cow as it seems they are, they're not putting in anything - they're just letting it fund itself from its (admittedly massive) revenues. However if those revenues are tied up paying the likes of Rashford, Antony, Caisimero etc. then they might not be able to physically pay RBL the cost of a Sesko. Conversely NUFC are restricted by PSR headroom - but in theory we have as much cash as we need. If anything, we should be able to provide an advantage on this particular item as paying everything up front if you have the cash makes no material difference for PSR purposes than paying in instalments.

 

That does of course assume that PIF are still prioritising "the NUFC Project" - which I was all in on about 3 months ago but recent developments and the stadium delay have me in the NO panicking camp.

Pretty comfortable with this, I assume Isak stays if Sesko doesn’t come.

Which is worse since he doesn’t want to be here.

Think that last line is a fair point.

Neither does Sesko :lol:

You’re probably right, but if he joined I assume he’d want to be. Isak staying would just be a nuisance at this point.

Cunha, Sesko, Mbeumo is a phenomenal new front 3 for manure. Especially where they are as a club.

 

 

Cunha looks like the bargain of the century by this months standards.
