Silly Season January 2014

[radiostar]

I'm with you mate, I want us to spend every penny we have to push on for 4th but you can see from the Jelavic deal today that prices are extortionate and for mediocre players. We need to find players that can improve the first 11. Do we have £15 million plus to do that ?

In this country yes - but Martinez has a good record of looking to europe and even further afield. He will pluck some player out from a south american club who will score ****loads. I guarantee it.

Sound, hope so!

If we have half the money we've acquired from sales we should look at exploiting Southampton's situation with a cheeky bid for Rodriguez and/or Lallana.

Don't think it works like that.

Just because they're losing Cortese doesn't mean they'll sell their best players.

....RM has come out and said that a striker in January is now his No1 priority, a striker that's the right fit. Its just a matter of who and when.

... and how much b)

We're signing Mauro Boselli

would love us to make a cheeky bid for Schneiderlin or Lallana. i know a pipe dream, but wouldn't it be brilliant!

... and how much b)

.......suppose so, but I suspect much depends on the availability of the strikers who have 'the right fit' This is guesswork, but if his main choices are not available he might keep his powder dry until the Summer and bring in somebody lower on his list as back-up to Lukaku. Like others I want a stella signing, more specifically a stella signing on the top of RMs shopping list but we might have to be patient.

Paco Alcacer would be amazing, played in the same youth Euros team as Deulo

You sauced?

We start with :

9m accounting loss.

We then take off wages for :

Moyes 65k
Hitzabuggerer 25k
Neville 50k
Felli 70k
Victor 40k
Mucha 25k
Jelavic 40k

275k a week, I didnt add Jelas.

We then add wages for :

Martinez 40k
Kone 40k
Robles 25k
Alcaraz 40k
McCarthy 40k
Lukaku 50k
Barry 60k
Deulofeu 20k
McGready 50k

315k a week, again, I didnt add McGready.

We then add the transfers :

Out
Jela 7m
Felli 27.5m
Victor 6m

40.5m

In
Pony 5m
McCarthy 13m
Robles 1.5m
McGready 1m

20.5m

Then we assume that our accounts stayed pretty solid and added the new TV Deal, which lets say is worth about 30m EXTRA.

We take out :

Martinez and backroom staff compo 2m
Agents fees 5m
New pitch and Lawnmowers 1m
I will also add Loan fees, even tho I personally doubt that we are paying fees as well as paying wages, but regardless 5m

30m - Accouting loss 9m - OOC 13m = 22m / +8m

8m + 20m = 28m NET.

Maths is EASY.
