Czechlad Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 These signings are making it impossible for other premier league clubs to compete. The gap between the big clubs and the rest of the clubs are growing massively. I mean even if we go up and Tony says here is 50 million, that probably isn't enough which is insane because if Lerner gave Lambert 50 million, we probably would've been top 10.

Zatman Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Tarkowski is linked with Arsenal for 30 million. If we go up is little chance we can compete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An average Premier league player now costs £20m - that's someone who is a back up in a top six team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that would be a reasonable funding demand. That's the Premier league. Liverpool are trying to cement a place in the top four - that's going to cost £300m a year even when you're already almost there, it's getting to the point where that's the price tag to stand still at the top end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The exact opposite of this will happen. With the possible entry of netflix, Facebook or amazon this transfer might look cheap in a few years.

Domestic is only really 50% or less these days. What about the rights that go for massive amounts to the Asian and American market? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
