Fox85 Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January Get promoted and he is worth more than double the amount that is being quoted. Club is a joke if they sell him no when we don't really need to I'd rather not get any signings in and just keep ticking over until we are back in the premier league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post coolhandfox Posted 26 January Popular Post Share Posted 26 January (edited) 18 minutes ago, Ric Flair said: Over stretched ourselves last summer, comforted by FFP not having led to any points deductions and punishments and now extremely worried? It doesn't make sense but neither did the summer of 2022 either. I'm not buying it. We were taking FFP seriously last summer, because we had no intention of buying any players. We didn't look to do a fire sale and only sold Fofana because he wanted to go and it was a massive fee. In the winter window we were willing to chuck 20m at Harrison. This summer we had 3 senior strikers on the books and brought in Cannon for 7m who we didn't need at the time. You don't refuse 4m for Iversen a player who clearly not in the manager plans if you need money in. We have cut amortisation from an all time high of 70m per annum to 40m. We have cut the best part 500k a week of the wage bill moving on players. That's a positive swing on the P & L by around 70m before you factoring in selling Maddison, Barnes for a combined total of 90m.

Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January If this is true then we are in a total mess, no way we sell our best midfielder with the position we’re in without it being a forced move to save our bacon. Still hoping it’s a load of 💩 though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanchflower78 Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January 11 minutes ago, Gamble92 said: We never should have been anywhere near the relegation zone with that squad. It was absolutely the worst sequence of events ever including having a manager who did just about everything to ensure we were down there all season. Even then we went down on the last day. To suggest we were one of the worst three squads and have lost everyone decent is just not true. We were full of the wrong attitudes and this is all about rebuilding with the right ones. Give me Winks over the last 2 years of Tielemans any day. Best in terms of potential quality doesn't mean shit when we had them attitudes as a cancer in our dressing room. We're playing Rotherham n Co, ask Winks to perform at Youri levels if we hopefully return. You simply cannot compare the 2 situations. It's great to see us at the top of the league but the season isn't over yet, arrogance and complacency certainly won't help either. Rodgers had lost the dressing room but in the end we were relegated because the collective weren't good enough. We've lost Youri, Madders and Barnes. Throw in Castagne and Cags on top and this squad is weaker no question. However, it's a new dawn and we're trying something different. It hopefully will come off but the gulf between championship and Prem is huge. Burnley were the Harlem Globe Trotters of the league last year and barely getting a sniff. I'm just being realistic. Doesn't make me less of a supporter of the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbflcfc Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January Surely they would not even entertain the offer of selling him if we haven’t lined a replacement up of similar ilk. This just seems mad to me, fofana vibes about this one… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwerty Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January Can the people who think £30 million (or even £50 million) would be good business explain to me how that works? With 5 days left of the transfer window, surely it’s irrelevant how much we get for him, because there’s no time to replace him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe there has been action on a replacement, maybe it was planned, maybe we are desperate for cash, maybe so many things.

EastAnglianFox Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January Wasn’t long ago plenty on here wanted him dropped. £35 mill and I’d snap their hands off.

Finnegan Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January There is literally no chance this happens. It doesn't make any sense. If we're at risk of failing the Championship FFP rules, quite frankly, so what. They can't stop our promotion. At the end of the season, we've got a significant amount of wages leaving the wage bill not to mention prize money and television revenue bumps for going up. You don't get halfway through a season in which you're running away with the league and then sell your best player. And when was the last time David Ornstein had an exclusive on LCFC news? It's just nonsense. People need to calm down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
