They've pumped in £700m odd in cash since their initial investment? Surely not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've pumped in about £500m so far plus the purchase price. Also, they now only own 80%, aitaros bought 20%...so it's about break even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czarnikjak Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Since NSWE took over the club was run at cashflow deficit of about £100m every season. Two ways for the owners to make it sustainable long term: 1. Reduce the losses 2. Make sure the value of the club increases by over £100m every season. Or some sort combination of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rightdm00 Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Chelsea, Bayern Munich, and Barcelona jobs are available and not a peep about Unai from the media. Just shows how far our owners have gone in ensuring Unai is completely comfortable with his position here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like only Barca will get a decent manager as well having just confirmed Flick as their new manager. Chelsea, Munich and possibly Man U (when they sack EtH) are going for real rookies in the likes of Kompany, Enzo and McKenna who seem to be favouritism for the roles. Tuchel who’s a winner is not even getting a look in bizarrely (despite his well known attitude with people above him). Everyone wants the next Pep, thankfully our owners have got their heads on straight and sorted it early and go Emery and made him so comfortable as you’ve said. They’ve built everything around him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 This was the end of their first full season in charge, and look where we are today. Phenomenal owners. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Alakagom Posted May 27 Popular Post Share Posted May 27 Every takeover in English league starts with the owners claiming having a plan of a 5 year road to CL under their rein. You could basically look at any takeover over past 10 years. We are the only club that actually fulfilled that goal, absolutely incredible, still can't believe it to be honest 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mic09 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 It seems to me like the Heck appointment, the scaled down plans for VP and the scaled down new shop are cheaper options to maximise revenue and club value while taking as little out of their pockets as possible. If I was a betting man, I'd say this is a solution designed to sell the club in a few years and make good money on their original investment.

They are investing buying clubs and we are probably the biggest that will make them money under their umbrella. Eventually they will sell for a huge profit without question but i cant see it being anytime soon unless the game becomes unprofitable or we just become a nothing club thats just there to make the numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
