To add to the misunderstanding of the FFP rules, how they've got to the revenue of £228m looks wrong, because 1) turnover in the last accounts was higher than a normal year due to the delay to the season, and 2) the £36m covid adjustment is not all revenue.

Ffp is an absolute myth. Get caught and pay a paltry fine. Ps i'm guessing this thread ends up on 3000+ pages Got to aim high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He goes down as a 100 million profit the replacement players even if they cost 100 million don’t go down as 100 as it is amortised. wait till the accounts are out and even then they can hand out longer contracts to lower the amortisation value of the current players. We will definitely have money to spend and wouldn't be surprised if it was comfortably over 100m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrim Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I think we'll break our transfer record twice, one by a large margin. Probably sign about 6 players of varying costs. A winger, a striker, Guendouzi will happen, a backup keeper, a first choice right back and another centre half to replace another outgoing one. Possible First XI: Martinez, Foyth, Torres, Carlos, Moreno, Kamara, Luiz, Guendouzi, Ramsey, Thuram, Williams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I wont be too judgemental this summer because I don't actually know what I want I want the club to really focus on 2 or 3 players of real quality, CL level players who cost £50m+ each, I don't see the club progressing by having summers like previous years where we've spent £100m+ but spread over 8 players But then that said I do excited when we pick up a player like Duran, or we get linked to the Chilean or monteiro, I'd like us to take a risk, I'd love us to be in a position like the top 6 are where they take these risks knowing at worst they'll make a profit on these youngsters, wouldn't mind a player I've never heard of if he has that buzz around him Then also that said kamara for £0 is the best signing we've made since Benteke Genuinely not a clue who this striker is that we need, half the league needs a guaranteed goalscorer so the market will be insane, not even a FM wonderkid I could say I want! Will be really hard and a lot of money, I think it should be easier to get goal scoring wide men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve watched him a few times this season and I’m not entirely convinced that he is what we need.

He's better than Kamara and Luiz. Also possibly too good for Villa. Also the Top Assister In La Liga 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adbo9 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 No basis to my predictions, other than a hunch......... I think well sign Zaha on a free transfer.......... Emery is a massive fan, Emery wants a winger Arsenal have got Martinelli and now Trossard Man U got Rashford Liverpool signed Gakpo and got Luiz Chelsea signed Mudryk can see his options diminishing for one of the top clubs over here, tottenham, newcastle, Villa ??

MrBlack Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 (edited) Please can we Edit the first post in this thread. Its wrong and useless. The rule he's talking about doesn't exist yet (its 90%, not 70%). And even if it did, it still wouldn't apply to us. He's also guessing at what our revenue figures are for this season, which he'll be wrong about, and ignoring the impacts of sending other players out on Loan / that we're likely to sell in the summer. All in all, we have shed loads more than 160m we could spend without breaching the correctly applicable FFP rules (that he isn't mentioning). And that doesn't just mean signing players for more than a combined 160m. Whether we will go up to the limit or not is another matter, and I suspect we won't to allow room for maneuver. The summer window is going to be mental, and we'll be at the centre of it. Edited February 2, 2023 by MrBlack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted February 2, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2023 (edited) FFP so the most boring thing on the planet, it makes for football conversations that contain the term ‘amortisation’ I love football but I do really hate bean counting.
