Name one we could have afforded andwould have come hereThat's just restating the case for defenders. My question to you was why the case for a replacement to Lukaku wasn't pursued.
And don’t say that’s not my job that’s up to Brands

Ok, £7M and £8M speak volumes, regardless of profit.Hold on, Jelavic and Cleverley were free transfers, Anichebe was a youth product. We would have to be showing massive levels of ineptitude to not make a profit on 3 players who didn't cost anything!
Who spent more time injured than playingWe brought in Saha for one for a small fee.
@NeilerEnlighten me?

Are we saying that Besic in a much more inflated transfer market wasn't capapble of being sold for £7M?

It IS Brands' task. He knows all the Euro leagues and south american. He couldn't find an affordable striker? Well watch him get one in January. Then you;ll see it could have been done last summer if he'd sold players on rather than loanling them.Name one we could have afforded andwould have come here

Dave how often do you have to be told thisIt IS Brands' task. He knows all the Euro leagues and south american. He cant find a =n affordable striker? Well watch him get one in January. Then you;ll see it could have been done last summer if he'd sold players on rather than selling them.
As was pointed out Dave those 3 were free transfers If we had of got 10 p for each of them it would have been a profitThere's always an excuse.
As said, if a profit could be made on Jelavic, Anichebe and Cleverley - where's the excuses?
...but we have a billionaire owner....Dave how often do you have to be told this
No one would buy them at book value
We got our arses handed to us on a plate on the Klassen deal and couldn’t afford to keep on doing it
Focus on THE FEE received.As was pointed out Dave those 3 were free transfers If we had of got 10 p for each of them it would have been a profit
Sadly the same does not apply to Bolassie Schnederlin MCCarthy Etc
Doesn’t work that way with transfers Dave...but we have a billionaire owner....
Yes Dave I did , sadly no one offered us fees for any of our dross except Funes Mori and KlassenFocus on THE FEE received.
I think
Besic was £6mil = £5.5mil book value
Bolasie lets say £10mil = -£3.8mil
That would give us about £1.7mil to spend.
Vlasic and Lookman perhaps would take us to under £15mil last summer i think.
Not enough...
