  1. If we can qualify for the Champions League I think we can get Nico Williams. He'd be a huge asset for us and I think Emery wants us to be less predictable and more flexible in terms of which side is the attacking FB and winger combination. So not always going LB and RW we could go RB and LW. Williams is great with both feet but generally considered right footed and we've got just 2 left footed wingers in the squad. Summerville would be a good alternative. We need that right footed winger who loves dribbling and has high sucessful take ons
  2. This was more a unique one though. I doubt we would have any add ons if there was a mandatory buyback for us in the deal. So I suspect this was a simple they paid us x and we buy back for his remaining book value if they're relegated. So it's basically a kind of Loan which helps us with FFP
  3. I think we sold him for £18m so my calculations are based on that, if we resign him on a 4 year deal for £12m then it costs us £3m per year and we banked 18m for the sale in this years accounts. It was a good deal instead of a loan that's for sure.
  4. zero % chance of that happening. 3/4m is stupidly cheap for a player as good as Archer. Plus we would just be locking in a loss of up to 10m which we would never be doing to our accounts with PSR to comply with
  5. Very unlikely it's that low, it would result in a book loss for Sheffield United. He'll have £13.5m left on his book value so I would imagine our buyback is around that price
  6. Yeah he's got 0.39 xG+xAG per 90 in a team who are by far the worst side in the League. He's done well I think for his first season in Prem. He'll learn from it and improve. I wonder what our buy back obligation is, £12m or £14m or something like that possibly. I'm sure there will be PL teams interest in him this summer at those prices. Alternatively we could loan him out

    The NSWE Board

    The Premier Leage rule changes are irrelevant for the top clubs as the UEFA ones are more stringent and we all have to comply with them already.
  8. I don't think anyone does tbh. Heck said it though.
  9. He's on record more than once saying the capacity will be increased by 1500 to 2700 additional seats.
  10. So improving the overall experience and keeping prices where they are now while adding in 1000 to 1500 additional Premium seating and Premium Spaces. Sounds good
  11. I'd go Rogers, Luiz, Tielemans, McGinn, Diaby, Watkins and then Digne and Cash as FBs. Deploy Bailey in second half
  12. We have to wait until our new partners were all signed up before we can do any of that. We only announced our short sponsor a few days ago. Adidas need to make all these now. That's the reason for the delay
  13. Totally agree. I do prefer the new leaked badge and the old badge to the current round one. I think this is the right unique style and continuity we need
  14. To me, off the field is about revenue. Maximise it to close gap on the top clubs as that is the fuel for the investment in the squad. It's about winning football matches
  15. Your opinion. Everyone has one. They key part is not being a run of the mill round badge. Also the badge needs to be simple so it can be put on lots of different merchandise.

    Unai Emery

    I wonder how much of a draw working under him will be for players. He has improved everyone at the club and surely any prospective signings will be thinking about that. Especially younger players
  17. No, there are only binary outcomes, you love or hate him. Only 2 choices
  18. If we qualify for the CL we'll crack £300m in revenue before player trading next year. That'll be ~ 70% rise in 3 seasons.
  19. Nassef is Executive Chairman. That is when the role of CEO is combined with Chairman.
  20. He's done a superb job so far. He's head of Business Operations and has gone out and just got us over double our sponsorship revenue in 11 months. Closing the commercial revenue gap to the big 6 is the key thing the club has to do off the pitch to help sustain the top tier football department we have. The brand launch coming, plus the 150 years give us an opportunity to get even more exposure. The timing for a documentary on us is ripe and that's income and exposure. How we grow matchday revenue is the next big step. There needs to be a better fan experience and transport to have people come to ground earlier and leave later. It's how to grow the overall revenue and experience.
  21. Can only be on oan as they won't be paying us his £8.5m book value in a transfer fee and then his wages.
  22. We'll see what Emery goes with. I'd be surprised if we had 4 senior fullbacks and 4 center backs. I think we'll have 5 CBs and 3 senior players who can play FB with Nedeljkovic as the additional youth player. I think Lenglet, Chambers and Digne leave. We sign a LCB and a FB
  23. He's the perfect alternative option to Pau for our LCB of back 3 in build up. I think we will sign him. We love a free transfer and we can pay high wages.
  24. I listed the CBs in the post you quoted. Only 1 of the players was new, Hermoso replaces Lenglet. Chambers leaves club. We have 5 CBs as we often play games with 3 CBs on pitch and we have a stacked schedule with Europe and Domestic football. Mings needs to ease back into it also. There is no way we are going into next season with 4 CBs only. We had 5 this season, 2 are leaving and Mings is returning.
