Right then, time to sign some players.
I’ve warmed to Dyche after watching a few interviews he did during his time between jobs, think he could do a solid Moyes-like job which would be fine for the short term.
Whether he can then kick on and play a type of winning football we crave once we can afford a bit more budget remains to be seen.
Good luck to him!
 


We can undoubtedly improve our player trading profit and loss to give us more room but we’ve actually sold Lukaku Stones Gueye Richarlison Digne Lookman Gordon all at the top of their market value for us. It’s the buying side that has been absolutely dreadful.

Those top teams had huge sponsorship deals before regulations shut the door, that’s the point, it makes it extremely difficult for a team outside this established group to break in.

Leicester or Villa could have their best season ever whilst United or Spurs finish tenth but if they both go out for a kit sponsor that summer then there’s no way the first two get a higher value deal than the second.

Chelsea have been extremely good at player trading no doubt, but what about United, who have they sold recently? Arsenal allowed Ozil Aubemayang Lacazette and Pepe to just fall off their deals, and then just dropped 100s of millions all over their team to replace them. Liverpool haven’t sold anyone for decent money since Coutinho. Can Wijnaldum Lallana Origi all walked out for nothing. Doesn’t affect their spending at all.

The gate was shut behind an established group of teams and now it’s extremely difficult to prize it open. You’d an go back and point the finger at the people at Everton who let us fall away from this top group over the PL years absolutely and that is fair but just denying that the financial regulations cause barriers for teams wanting to get in this group now is ridiculous.

Looks like Newcastle are going to break into that top tier of clubs.
