majaco Posted 30 August 2022 Share Posted 30 August 2022 I liked Fofana briefly. Now he lives with the bogeyman. And I prefer Larry May, John O'Neil and Ben Nelson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phenom Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 25% sell clause? Woah. Was he valued at 50 million? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon the Hat Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 5 hours ago, Steve_Walsh5 said: Chelsea & St Etienne done a right number on us ain’t they. End up with about £20 million profit which will have to go on a inferior player. Profit would be 75M less 35M = 40M of which we owe 25% to ST Etienne 10M = 30M. ie the 25% sell on fee is off the profit not the total. More relevant however is cash upside which is 75M less the 10M we have to pay to St E. We will have 65M in the bank which we didn't have before. Of course this all assumes everything is paid in one which is probably isn't. We may well have to settle any remaining installments to St Etienne at the time of sale, which we will take into account. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed with this. Just hope that we actually look for starting 11 players rather than 15m donkeys on inflated wages as 4/5th choice CB’s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you consider his wages for the duration he didn’t play, rehab costs etc, his time and transfer with us can’t be considered that successful. Other than the FA Cup win of course!

JimmyC74 Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 Hopefully this talk of us looking down the sides of the sofa for loose change is BS and we can get a couple of additions in - worst case loan to buy. if after selling Wes we can’t afford likes of Sarr or Gakpo at £25m things are worse than we believed or the Board really aren’t backing BR.

The amount of wages and the likelihood of injuries mean the premiums would be prohibitive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannythefox Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 Love how everyone thinks they know what’s he gone for, Moyes said yesterday sky have put we’ve broken out transfer record then went on to say sky only put what they think the deals at they need to put something I suppose. End of the day he’s gone the club will be better for it, he’s a dickhead and we only want players who want to play for us. Personally in the current market I think he’s worth 100m. But obviously the club don’t. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARM1968 Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 Some of the players we appear to be looking at are utter dog muck - no surprise. However we can sometimes pull out a rabbit. We certainly need a couple now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
