Marco Silva: "We don't have the financial conditions to go in the market, is the feedback I have at the moment."

Rich though aren’t we? Aren’t we lads?

I think its based on wages as opposed to transfer fees though. Moshiri must have nightmares over Sandro, Schneiderlin and Tosun banking 1m a month between them.
 

Lets be fair mate, we are not going to pay £40million for Batshuayi.

Brands seemed to be trying to identify lads who are available at a knockdown price this window. Lots of lads with 18 months being looked at (Dzeko, Fraser) or even 6 months (Brahimi). I see Batshuayi as part of that. At around £20 million it's a great price, but I can't see us paying full whack for the lad.
Never said we should
At 15/20 m and reasonable wages ok
If we shift Tosun and Naisse we are no worse off wages wise and probably only a bit down on transfer money
But anything over that on a player who will hopefully be a bench player next season is crazy

+ Bolasie. That's about 370k a week for players who offer us absolutely nothing. Not forgetting the likes of McCarthy, plus Besic and Mirallas both coming back to us in the summer and under contract. Thank the Lord that high-earners Williams and Jagielka should both be off the books come the summer.
 
I can foresee some utter blert posts off the back of those Silva comments

"Carpetbagger", "chancer", "charlatan" - anyone else care to play blert bingo?

(It shouldn't come as a shock to anyone that we can't/won't sanction new arrivals without getting some of our dross off the wage bill first)
Right it is too. Let's see Brands do his real magic. It's easy to attract players when you're dangling 100k a week at them. Now he has to earn his wage by getting rid of our trash.
