Keep spending. FFP won't matter. They will want the money flowing and to do that, they need the clubs with it to spend, regardless of where it comes from. The more we spend above our means, the more available for others to spend. FFP restrictions will be lifted for longer than has been confirmed so far.

Might be heading for an anti-climax on deadline day as regards more incomings but
that's definitely a good position to be in.
I still wonder if Kean is to leave and we are covering Godfrey in part with this. Would surely look for a loan then ourselves.
Could be like supermarket sweep for outgoings but that could go on until the 16th.

It's not just about FFP, though.
Having a 32-man playing squad, with players who contribute nothing on £100k plus a week, is mental.

If FFP is removed from the picture I don't think Mosh / our rich Russian uncle are going to care about a few million going down the tubes for this transition period
But sustainability wise it's not viable. The manager won't one so many players there, he's already said as much.
We need to shift players out.
Besic, Bolasie, Sandro, Tosun. Four players who will contribute nothing this season - that's about £320k a week in wages right there, being conservative.
£320k x 52 = £16,640,000
That's not just 'a few million'. And especially during such a financially unstable time, we need to shift them.

Because it relates to a future asset being built it is matched against the cost and then when built it is matched against stadium financing and operating costs which can already be excluded from football losses. PL STCC still exists with a hard cap on 3 year cumulative losses but the annual wage growth limit removed but like FFP they've allowed an extended accounting period. I think both are likely to require further adjustment to take account of the permanent loss of matchday income but that is still to come. EFC may be gambling a little on that based on the sentiment amongst clubs being widespread that more changes are needed, at least as one-off to provide relief for lost matchday and tv income attributed to Covid.

Out of contract 2021:
Walcott
Bolasie
Besic
Sandro
Pennington
Out of contract 2022:
Siggurdsson
Tosun

Bernard
As long as we dont fall foul to FFP the majority of our dross will be gone in the next 2 years anyway mate
But like I've just said mate, Bolasie, Besic, Sandro, Tosun - just those four is approx £16m in wages over the course of a year.
