Even at 10%, that’s say nearly £7m. Next summer we need to sign a GK, RB, LB and CB likely at a minimum. Then not long after that, another CM and RW depending on futures of Willock and Murphy as we go into 26/27 season. All on top of new deals needed for many players. Only backup RB and LB is needed really. We will absolutely have some money to spend next year if we sell Isak, its only the year after that we will need to figure something out. But who knows how things will be by then in regards to PSR. Maybe it gets scrapped, maybe we sell our womens team, maybe we have substantially increased our revenue after winning the CL.

LFEE Posted August 29, 2025 Share Posted August 29, 2025 1 hour ago, J7 said: I’m not really a fan of players doing this either tbh. However clubs hardly cover themselves in glory. There was an Athletic podcast about bomb squads this week, where unwanted players under contract are kept away from the rest of the team, training out of substandard training rooms and at a different time of day. Also pretty shitty behaviour. We weren’t exactly kicking up a fuss at the treatment of Fraser, Hendrick or Hayden. Yeah put they are still getting paid which is the only contract obligation the club give so you can’t compare that of the behaviour of someone going on strike. If clubs just decided to stop paying players they no longer want then you’d have a perfectly good argument. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
janpawel Posted August 29, 2025 Share Posted August 29, 2025 As a player I'd much prefer to get Wissa, but with Larsen's age and him seemingly acting with more integrity, I'm not so sure Would like 1 of the strikers at least to thrive of running into space / through balls From YouTube scouting, Woltemade likes the ball into his feet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get any indication if that 1 player is another striker? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god they don't run the club then. I trust our personnel team almost implicitly at this point, and the way the striker market is going JSL will be worth 80m next summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted August 29, 2025 Share Posted August 29, 2025 Quite happy with this if it happens, don’t think him and Nick are anything like each other. I get the concerns around both have no pace, but we’ve got 2 of the fastest wide players in the league either side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted August 29, 2025 Share Posted August 29, 2025 FWIW, JSL was called-up to the national squad earlier today and when asked about having picked "injured" players (Ødegaard & JSL), our cunt manager (I just hate the guy, let me be ) responded that Ødegaard was picked as he "might" get fit in time to be available for at least one of the two matches, if not both, so calling him up even if it wasn't a sure thing he'd play was "worth the risk". Then said he'd spoken to JSL and was told he was fit and ready to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
