Aye this is the issue, but also, you have to do your business in advance of those players leaving. Like, a year in advance or six months.

That's what, by and large, Leicester have done.

They are a weird case though, because their league win gave them a step up. But since then, if you look how they've done it, they've got a player in a position where they know that the following season they'll likely sell a star player.

So, Soyuncu they got in 2018, ahead of selling Maguire a year later. Soyuncu had a year to settle into England, play a bit, train a lot, then go into the team.

They knew they had Barnes coming through when they sold Mahrez. That being said, they may not have expected his development to rise so sharply but it did.

They have bought Soumare this summer and he will be a rotation option until, in all likelihood, Ndidi goes next year.

That probably allows them to keep Tielemans, and I wouldn't be surprised if they go get a bit of a playmaker type in January or next summer to phase in for either a Maddison or Tielemans sale, just in case.

They've also had the fortune of having Vardy, who is a reliable goalscorer that eases a lot of the burden. They have move for Daka this season though so if that works he'll likely be the player in a few years who phases out Vardy/replaces him.

Leicester are exactly what we should be tbh. Does my head in.

They're well backed financially, but most importantly they're really well run.

That’s the way to run your football team.

It shouldn’t be a disaster to sell DCL or Richarlison because we should have faith in the back room scouting to get it absolutely spot on.

Instead we’re all panicking because we’ve spent £500m and most of its been not productive at all.

And we will inevitably sell both with 2 days of the window to spare

Benitez has been given a thankless task. He obviously had major issues with James which made freezing him out a straightforward task and some of our fanbase bought into his spin. If he is here for a full season he might not be so keen on getting rid of Richy and DCL in January but it is clear we will be selling high and buying low until the stadium is done and then Uz and Mosh will probably be looking to sell as a result of getting their fingers burnt. Richy and DCL should bring in north of 150 million if they have a decent season. If Gray continues in this rich form we could easily turn a big profit on him come the summer, more so if he gets called up and gets in the world cup transfer window. This time next year we should be feeling pretty pleased with ourselves with a possible 200 million in sales and having huge amounts off the wage bill once Gomes and the Viking are gone.
