VillaChris Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Think DS is bang on with that last sentence, even if Traore and AEG's stats weren't too bad they'd waste the final pass so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I purely want to sign him because of the meltdown it would cause. We know this club. There is no way Percy is reporting this if we didn’t think we have a good chance of getting him. Even more so when the transfer window shuts and jack is still with us because everyone is utterly convinced it means he's off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwi1890 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I hope we pull this off , I was a bit sceptical to begin with thinking signing players like him would stand in the way of a few of our own youngsters like Chukwemeka and Barry but truth be told they need first experience on loan first and even if it takes 3 years for them to break into the squad they’d still only be 20 .

Not sure if £500 million figure includes £150m odd in delayed transfer fees I swear a smaller club would have been hit with heavy FFP sanctions if they were in a similar situation. Am I tripping or is "debt" not calculated when considering FFP breaches? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thug Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 FFP is an utter disgrace, designer to keep the rich rich. Even when these clubs fall foul of the rules they just hire lawyers and get the fines/penalties overturned. What *would* be financial FAIR play would be every club in the league has the same transfer budget and wage budget, but there’s lots of reasons why that would never happen. If they want to protect clubs from reckless owners, then they should put rules in place that prevent clubs from being burdened with debt - the debt is the owner’s responsibility, not the clubs. That’d stop unchecked overspending, but allow calculated investment. /rant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's funny with Arsenal fans and everything but there is frankly zero chance we sign ESR. He will sign a new contract with Arsenal, I'm guessing this is just to try and get more money from them. A waste of time this imo. A waste of whose time?

Not sure if £500 million figure includes £150m odd in delayed transfer fees They messed up last season didn't they with how much they spent on signings, the previous year before that they had the Ozil/staff fiasco I believe so you could see or feel how messed up they were. I think last year they made a massive mistake and gamble spending what they did to still try to regain one of the top positions in the league. They are a club over spending on high wage players, it's costthem and added and added until they are bloated on high wages and can't spend any transfer money and it's not working no more in football as much as it once did.
