Baines' left foot
Player Valuation: £90m
So his net spend isn't -£11.65m but £1m? And if those players weren't signing new contracts then the genius should have sold them a season earlier.
What? No, he let those players go for free. If he'd sold them for a combined fee of £10m then his net spend works be -£21m. How do you know that other teams were interested in these players? The likelihood is that no one wanted them as they would be available for free within a year.
