Summer Transfer Window 2017

[Connor]

Could someone explain to a simple soul, how we are not falling foul of financial fair play guidelines with all this recruitment?

Financial black magic.

 

[Bally8]

I do think there is a surprise to come out of left field don't you all think?

 

[jinkyali]

Training will be a rocking tomorrow

Announce Hamez.

 

[Blue Juice]

At this moment I think the most pressing issue is we only have two fit out and out experienced PL wingers in in the squad in Mirallas and Lennon. With the talk of Mirallas getting shipped out surely this is somewhere we need to focus on first even if we do land Siggy

 

[Thomasc]

Lukaku 75m
Del 12m
Clev 8m
McGeady 4.5m

100m in and about the same out thus far

Not spent a penny and how much stronger is the squad already?

We were told there was 100m before any outgoings - So 100m to spend on Gylfi, a left back and a top striker, exciting!

Niasse & McCarthy to be sold still also

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Is it wrong that I wouldnt mind a defender or two?

Nope...I'm in the same boat. Keane goes down, perish the thought (see Bolasie), and we're back to square one.

 

[DaChunk]

Very silent regarding the Barkley situation...

Williams isn't good enough either, not for a team who wants top 4.

 

[Nymzee]

This thread's header photo makes me moist.

Agreed, I want us to sign another 1st choice centre back.

Total cash outlay on players is not an issue as it is limited over a three year period not a one year timeframe. Wages is a different issue, we can raise it by £7m a season (which isn't much when you consider Rooney's wage alone is over £6m) plus any increase in non-broadcast revenues. The close to £50m profit on Lukaku gives us latitude on the wage increases. In other words SPEND, SPEND, SPEND (for one year only!)

 

[Tin-Tin]

Cryptic but the diamond has to be Ross. Hope he's alluding to him signing a new deal.
