Fair play, Klopp is building a good team there. Hopefully Emery can do the same with us.
Yea, with 50 million a year, he sure can.
Itâs not as simple as ÂŁ50m a year though is it? Thereâs an article doing the rounds explaining how we work out our transfer budgets, I suggest you read it so that you understand what is really going on rather than believe in the clickbait headlines you read.
Yeah basically in short, the ÂŁ50m isnât for transfer fees per se itâs for salaries.
So basically we can make up to ÂŁ50m worth of signings in regard to salaries i.e. we can sign 10 players on ÂŁ5m per year deals or 5 ÂŁ10m per year players.
Thatâs a gross oversimplification and doesnât quite cover the transfer fees either BUT that ÂŁ50m DOES NOT equate to: 1 ÂŁ50m player or 2 ÂŁ20m players and 1 ÂŁ10m player.
Itâs all broken down by salary and accounted for over years of the contract.
Itâs not just salaries, itâs salaries per year plus the fee split out over the initial contract. A 40 million player signed on a 4 year contract of 7 mil means a 7+40/4 hit on our budget. Thus 17 million.
Hopefully it means Salah is off.
I was thinking that, unless itâs one of their other attacking players like Mane or Firmino.
If he does go, it will be a record fee.
I refuse to believe it. Nabil wonât leave us now with all we can achieve this season with our youth coming through the ranks.
Iâm Confused, who do you actually support?
He is mocking people. He has been told to fuck off and support another team, because he doesnât share the same sentiment towards the new manager; which I actually funny because itâs the same people that would call you out for supporting Wenger.
Salah is going nowhere heâs Coutinho replacement
Fekir
Salah Firmino Manè
He actually said that he was considering supporting a new club, thatâs why people keep going on about him going off and supporting a new team.
Probably best to be clear on the facts first before posting an explanation
That was after he was told to fuck off, was reading the thread I found pretty aberrant just because someone doesnât ascribe to your views.
Haha to be fair I think I said it before many had told me to fuck offâsurely a few had said it already thenâbut I do find it highly amusing the part you noted about the biggest culprits being precisely those who would tell people to fuck off for years for getting behind the club and Wenger, and now all of a sudden itâs all sweetness and light and you canât say a bad word about the clubâs actions.
Heâs actually spoken before about it being somewhat illogical to blindly follow one team if youâve got no good reason to, several people have had debates or discussions with him about the nature of being a football fan. So Iâm pretty sure he isnât just saying that as a wind up reaction to people being mean to him.
I will give both of you that, there is something deliciously ironic about that haha
Anyways, I can neither confirm nor deny my true allegiances, but I will say, ALLEZ LES GONES and ARRIBA MI ATLĂTI!!!
We have some delightfully vague rules about intentional trolling, donât make me apply a special interpretation :kos2:
Thanks for taking the time out and explaining in detail
Even with amortization, 50 million is a ridiculous figure for a club our size and nowhere near good enough to complete with the likes of Liverpool who have constantly backed their managers with steady financial support. What you are taking about is a technique used to balance the books (spread fee and wages across the contract period so that it doesnât hit the financial figures of the year of signing), but that doesnât help anyone other that the accountant as fee in almost all transfers has to be paid upfront. Looking at the past record of the way we have spent, itâd actually be a surprise that weâd have a net spend in exess of 50 million. If the club was really interested in spending money, theyâd have spent some of the cash reserve they have been sitting on for years (largest in the world) and tried to offset it against future earnings for the sake of improvement of the team, but that hasnât happened yet and unlikely it will.
I like your optimism and hope I am wrong, but our failure to attract a bigger name for the managerâs position indicates that money wonât be made available for top signings and weâll continue with bargain hunting. Any big signings will have to be offset against sales. We were in a way lucky that we were able to ship out a lot of dead wood for decent money, but now there are few players left that the club can dispose and weâll soon be back to selling our best players to keep books positive. Ramsey and Lacazette will likely face the chop as theyâll fetch good money and can be replaced with cheaper alternatives, rest are either unsellable for one or the other reason or will have to be sold for a loss (think this was the reason we couldnât offload Mustafi last summer).
I am convinced that we spunked a large part of the summerâs budget on Auba cause he became available. If we hadnât spent in the winter, the budget for the new manager would have been closer to 100million. But hey, if it werenât for your telling me that you read an article, I wouldnât have been able to come up with this explanation. Cheers.
Lacazette should be sold to raise funds, Perez should take his place in the squad
