Farmer Saint

I mean, we have got over £100m on a load of players that we finished almost with the worst PL team in history. Probably says something.

Also, if they come with easily achievable add-ons (IE number of appearances that push some payments into next year) it helps with the dreaded PSR. So a £35 to 40m deal because a near on guaranteed £42 to £45m.

Don't forget, both sides look to deflate/inflate the prices as necessary. West Ham are briefing £35m plus add ons, we'll be doing £40m+ plus add ons. It's how it always works now, so it tends to be somewhere in the middle.

Strange that he's going to West Ham then - going to be just as bad this season.

In relation to Jander, Stuttgart wanted him earlier in the window but couldn't afford him. They finished 9th in the Bundesliga last year.

If this gave us a chance at Fellows my opinion of letting Matty go may soften.

I guess all the questions and confusion about how we fit Downes, Charles, Azaz and Fernandes in the same team aren't relevant then 😂

Well, yes, but that's obvious. We were already offered £32m plus add ons, so think if true that it would be nearer the £40-45m mark. I'm waiting to hear...

Hmmm, I've not heard anything. Let me check. 🤔

That's the spirit.

Probably is tbh. I like him, don't get me wrong, but there is a reason why Managers don't seem to rate him.

If we know something about Archer, he will score. He is a pure finisher. Just don't expect him to do anything else.

Found his level.

Anyone else quite impressed with Stewart last night? Looked a proper handful and if he can hold the ball up (and not get injured) I think he could be good.

Hassenhuttl?

Edozie off to Brugge after tonight due to qualifying for CL...

Not to us, no.

Fucking hell, my two favourite posters are at it, must be a lot of crap being spouted here...

Looks like Blackmore has changed his tune on Fernandes. As I said earlier, links have cooled as cost is too high.

He said he's not ITK, so it's all common sense

They are all asylum seekers before the decision is granted. That is fact. If you are granted asylum you are no longer an asylum seeker, you are a refugee. I just want to clear this up as there seems to be some confusion in the replies to others that I am seeing.

This feels like a decoy for Rak Saki...

But it's not a sustainable model for growth. Anyway, irrelevant of this, it's what I heard early Summer and none of our business so far shows it to be incorrect information.

He won't go to West Ham, not without a very cheap release clause. They're going down as Potter is a shit Manager (RM mk2).

Not true, they cost less this year and will allow flexibility to replace next year (1 year more amortised value off the books). Don't forget PSR is never an issue for the year in play, it's what that 3rd year constitutes looking back over the previous 2.
