Yeh, that's a really weird piece from Joyce.

File under dirty red. Bye.

That being said, I remember the Brands/Koeman thing being mentioned before, and also he's not wrong about that summer being a disaster. We all say as much, like.

On the pitch, the first team, I dont think we are. I think we will be very competitive next season. But underneath that, financially, without Moshiri's gymnastics, we will have to ride it out.

Our issue is the commercial performance. This needs to rise much more quickly. It doesn't really even seem to be much of a priority for many of the board. How often is DBB asked about this? How often does she talk of this as a priority and how to remedy it?

Alongside that, unless we sell well we will struggle. If we adopting the Madrid/Dortmund/Monaco etc model then we have to be honest enough to say that they regularly sell. Even today, they sell Greizman and sign Felix. See Dortmund, sold Politic (and potentially Sancho) and buy in a range of players.

We have bought badly before last summer so as yet can't get fees rolling in. However going forward, hopefully if we continue with good buys, some can be moved on at a profit.
 
Out of interest, the 22 million loss in 2018 was that for the Koeman/Walsh disaster year accounts or will that year be posted as in 2019?

I wonder on the 3 year loss FFP rule what position we are in for this summer?

Yep. Its a pointless exercise, cos we are where we are, but if we could just ignore the utter junk we have managed (sic) to land ourselves with, the cost/value ratio of our first team 15 is pretty good. Bordering on excellent.

What Joyce has forgotten to add is that it’s all completely irrelevant to us really as we’re not in Europe and it only applies to clubs playing in European competitions.

We’ll cross that bridge next summer.

Yeah, I don't get why anyone cares. We've move some salary out this window and be even better as a team. Mosh will splash the cash again and we'll be fine.
 
I think we should be signing some of the women from the world cup they are better than some of our players.
And it would boost our fan base

The way I see it, the plan as far as it could be a plan was delayed by 2 years. We are actually in more of a mess 2 years down the line than the end of Martinez (no easy Saleable assets in the same way) but it's a similar principle. You'd imagine European progressing and breaking the top 6 will be important next season and ideally trying to break the top 4 the season after as a goal.

We have a young team, the 2nd youngest last season. I like the calm around the club. It was chaotic at this stage 2 years ago under Koeman/Walsh. There's a greater continuity now. We are not trying to reinvent how we are trying to play.

In two spells of last season we were really good. I think we were 6th in the first and 3rd in the 2nd. That's before we add in any new players. It's before we consider our young squad gets better.

The difficulty is that middle third, where we were 18th. So we need to try and reduce the amount of time we have a dip and the severity of the dip.

I'm cautiously optimistic of how we will do next season. That group of players showed we can beat anyone outside of the top 2 at the back end of the season, and we can give them a match as well.

I do think. moving forward we will need to start selling players too though. That has to be the hope. I am quietly optimistic some of the lads in the 23's can come through too (Simms, Gibson, Gordon etc). A calm stable structure ahead of them will help.

Mainly cos im not sure how long he will keep doing it, he simply cant do it every year, IMO anyway.

I mean I agree, the SKY deal means the likes of Palace can demand 50m for AWB, they can demand 80m for Zaha, cos they arent "short" of money, then the likes of United make massive commercial deals, so they can spend. But clubs like us, clubs who have made LOTS of mistakes, a Club that has spent around 50m on hiring and firing managers, well we are skint.

Some of our wage budget is still going to Koeman ffs

Got to take issue with the no saleable assets....we have a squad full of them and a squad worth far more than the one Martinez had if we decided to cash in on them.
