They’re actually in the position now where they don’t have to spend all that much. Couple of top players a season and hoover up all the best young talent via their academy.

To be fair it’s Bayern mate. Not often a club like that comes calling. Most players would go regardless.

Holy moly!! lol

How much of it are we able to reinvest? Is the incoming money simply a paper exercise in that it offsets losses on our accounts and we can spend in the next period or do we need to stick it in our Bradford and Bingley super savers account? I’d say if there’s one marquee name we can afford to...

I’d say they’ll be liquidated by that point and sources will still be saying we’re confident of a deal with them lol I’d be fairly sure we’ll start to hear a lot more in June once this agreement has expired.

Like others, I’d be more inclined to believe he’s publicising his desire to get out of palace more so than genuinely going after Everton. He even said himself it’s unlikely the club will still be for sale by the time he’s ready to acquire it. In my experience, it’s rarely the ones making noise...

Yup. No manager is ever really at Bayern very long anyway. If the President gives Onana a bell he’ll be on his way in a flash I’m sure.

I’d say a few will be interested in him. Imagine we’d need to flog half the team first lol

As an old boss of mine once said, “you have a say. You don’t have a choice”. lol

I agree. Think it will be flog a couple of assets and bring in fairly low cost replacements either for nominal fees or loans. Assume we’ll keep hold of DCL unless a big offer comes in for him.

We’re signing a striker this summer? Here’s hoping!! DCL is a good player no doubt. But I don’t see many incomings of note this summer. We’ll probably have Onana and Branthwaite to replace in the squad.

Yeah. I mean one of the correct things Simon Jordan said is if you owe someone £50 it’s your problem. If you owe someone £200million it’s their problem! MSP may well want to step in if things look decidedly dicey.

Absolutely. We are miles away from challenging for anything right now.

I’d say that’s a given in terms of another arduous season ahead. Whoever takes over, the clubs finances need put on the right footing first before we can do anything else. And let’s face it, any takeover may not be concluded before the transfer window closes.

It’s really down to what we have in the squad tbh. If we had a good RB, some better quality wide players and DCL in form then I think we could play some decent stuff. We’re missing a bit of class centrally too - Doucoure isn’t silky but can be effective when in form. It’s just he’s very patchy...

Always good times on here lol End of the day he got the job done this season. Was it pretty? No. It was awful a fair amount of the time but he’s earned his spot for next season given the turmoil around the club and the points deductions. I’ll admit to being fickle at times like all fans but...

I had a mate who was a civil engineer. Used to swan out of the office in a suit with a briefcase, tell everyone he was going on a site inspection and then go and play golf lol

Yeah I mean it’s a total lottery. You can’t bank on the team overcoming a 9 point deduction next season and if you go down you might not be back in the PL for a decade.

The Esk. Just following the logic of what’s being hinted at lol

Yeah. He was such an effective player.
