Well we get jack shit for Tielemans, Soyuncu etc. Of course we will get their wages off the bill, but no fee to go into the kitty. It is unlikely we will get the true worth in terms of transfer fee for Maddison and Barnes, especially now we've been relegated. I'm not sure what we will do with the loans that we've secured against future tv money or parachute payments. Could king power pay them off? Or more likely, we will try to restructure the payments. So in answer to you're question, I don't have a Scooby! Time will tell I suppose. Edited 28 May 2023 by smudger63 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to keep Daka, Castagne, Praet, and Madders tho I'm aware they could be sold. I feel like those players would be a solid team to build around with the right manager to come straight back up the next season. I've never watched us play Championship football so I don't know if I should be excited or disappointed. Maybe we can go back to our winning ways. I’m afraid that Barnes will be sold and mendy is out of contract. The others you mentioned you’d like to keep will leave apart from daka who may decide to stay.

beepee1984 Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 I would want to bring in Jack Clarke from Sunderland - need a winger. (And a gk, manager, midfields, striker & defenders, but with our board we’ll worry about that on transfer deadline day) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beachyboy Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 9 minutes ago, smudger63 said: He's better than championship. He is very frustrating because he could be so much more. If he gets the right manager, who is able to get the best out of him, he could turn into one hell of a player, if he doesn't, then he will probably never properly fulfil the huge potential that he has. Sounds like Eddie Howe is that guy, I'd say he posts better figures than Saint Maximum consistently. He has to go for his own sake, he's shown for me he cares he can't control 24 other squad players and a manager. Our relegation shouldn't reflect on Barnes, if he'd got the smaller details right to be a 20 goal a season player he'd have left already. Probably for United/Liverpool or Chelsea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iversen was always a vast improvement over Ward and was POTY for Preston on loan last season. I think we haven't even seen the best of iversen yet, unless a bargain comes obvious, priorities are elsewhere for me, he'll be a decent champ keeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This week/month I expect few clever deep meaning posts… Another club buying any of these players better think deeply on mentral strengths & handling stress..

He has not delivered when we needed it the most Simply Not good enough. There are only 3 non strikers who scored more than him this season…. Salah Odegaard Saka Barnes has scored more PL goals than.. Son G jesus Nunez Trossard Fernandes Maddison Zaha Sancho Mahrez And he’s English!!

cityfanlee23 Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 (edited) I did this for the other thread but cba to find it and a few things have changed. Sell/let contract expire (If possible): - would save over 1m per week give or take and bring in potentially 150m if we can deal well + Parachute payments. Vestergaard Pereira Vardy Amartey BertranD Evans Cags Ward Barnes Maddison Tielemans Praet Soumare Choudhury Albrighton Perez Hirst Keep (if possible): Iheanacho (desperately want him to stay but he deserves top flight football) Daka Ndidi (Awful I know but we may be stuck with him and he could do with a season to get his confidence back. If a new manager can sort him out he is worth it) KDH Mendy Thomas Kristiansen Souttar Castagne (Dependant on Justin' situation) is rumored to be on 65k a week, if the 50% cut is true he's affordable and could be steady in the championship if he doesn't get an offer abroad. Justin Faes Iversen Smithies Young players to give chances to: Braybrooke, Brunt, Alves, Marcal-Madivadua Sign: Left winger x2 Right winger x2 Central attacking midfielder Centre back x2 Young 3rd striker Core for next year: When you consider the potential wage savings from selling/expiring players, the wage cut for relegation (if true), parachute payments and the fees we will receive for Barnes and Madders being a minimum of £80m, I think financially we will be okay, It might not be so rosy if we get stuck with the big earners like Vardy or Vestergaard. Would take Vards in the championship obviously, but I think it's time to move on. Things will be tight obviously, but we do have a core of a team easily good enough on paper to go back up.

We aren't going to be a position to offer big new contracts to anyone, and we also have Vardy and Daka on decent wages . At least one if not 2 of the 3 main strikers will be off and Nacho is probably the most attractive to other clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lineker's Left Foot Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 Really personally despised this team and it’s just dawned on me that we’re going to have a lot of new players - probably more likeable. This is also exciting and scary too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
