January Transfer Window 2023

We used to do that before that 'kin idiot Moshiri tipped up.

True mate. Moyes was good at buying cheap but good player.

Ok, this makes sense. Scary long term issues here. Playing catch up commercialy with the sky and oil clubs will be very difficult

The last set of accounts our wage bill was 185 million and was 95% of our turnover. The year before it was 164 million and 89% of our turnover.

We will see the latest accounts in March and my guess is that wages will be in the region of 160 million.

At a snails pace, but yes.

Rather buy the right player at the end of the window. Then the wrong player at the start of it.

…I’d rather buy the right player when we most need him at the start of the window.

It’s times like now where you realise how good the Moyes years actually were.

Good solid signings, 1 x 4th and regular 5th and 6th place finishes on a shoestring budget.

We are now the complete opposite of everything he did.

91%

The entire Brighton team playing against Everton is cheaper than Iwobi. Here’s why. They buy cheap player who can do a job. That’s called proper recruitment, unlike us buying overpriced gash from other PL teams.

You know he’ll be good too.

Whatever scouting network we have can’t hold a candle to Brighton’s lot.

Yeah that’s frustrating… I’d love us to be signing these types of players. His value will double if he puts in a few good premier league performances

 

[Neiler]

No option to buy....

Michael keane to Italy

If that's a perm transfer deal of the cecentury

I've warned my missus that I won't be home for 2 days when he goes...am literally going on a 2 day bender.

I sincerely hope KT is not a new Walsh or Brands. We have to manage our finance pragmatically. Such as we may sell Gordon for 40m plus to generate funds and that is pure profit on ffp and buy 2 better players with the money.

I cannot believe the Japanese winger costed €2.5m. Almost 10 times cheaper than the mighty McNeil.

Played under de zerbi so that worked out superbly

Obviously we'd all want 5 player's who'll be improve the first team in on day one of the transfer window. But we've never done that.

We've either took our time and bought well or rushed and spunked it all up the wall.
