About as convincing as your pie chart

More convincing than any overall assessment on cash spent and cash spent in on Martinez's signings in three seasons with us. Try it and see for yourself.

Where have these reports of an £8m bid come from? Any links?

Releasing Niasse on a free won’t help the calculation Dave.

It wont come to that. Not if Jug head is a proper DoF.

Deduct the common denominator and redo your equation

Accept the offer Marcel and dont let him play even another second of football, in fact dont even let him train because it is an absolute certainty that he will break something and be injured till his contract runs out. Would be made up getting 8 mill for him.

It would be quite a hard task to negotiate for more money so i agree in taking the offer.

Just do the adding and subtraction.

You could say that for Moyes: no fee, small fee, money barely back on all but a few of his purchases. Fellaini and Stones were probably the best profits we got on Moyes' signings. Arteta a good profit.

Lukaku was quite simply the signing of the 21st Century. Value on the pitch + profit. Cleverley and Deulofeu fees were profitable too.

The difference with Moyes was that the only reason we didn’t profit on his players was because we kept most of them. Had we sold Baines Coleman Arteta Cahill Pienaar Jagielka at their peaks how much profit do you think we’d have created? There was also the Lescott sale that created a lot alongside Fellaini and Stones.

I’m not disputing the Lukaku signing but aside from that it was mostly poor signings which have turned over very quickly mostly at a loss. Whilst Baines Coleman and even Jags we’re still in and around the first team even last season alltnhis time after Moyes, nearly every Martinez signing is either out the building or completely removed from the first team picture.

Thank you muchly

Sad to see him go but its good business. Hope he does well at Palace.

If they break him in the medical they better still pay up!

If he goes for £8M, that'll be a net profit on Martinez signings of £36M - thus far.


And if anyone's having a go at McCarthy's quality they have very short memories and / or are clueless about football, because he was easily our best DM since Carsley.

Net profit if you ignore the utter waste on wages these dregs have taken from the club in the last few years.

Parkinson was a class above, not even close. Go and watch re-runs of the cup semi v spurs and the final v Utd if you don’t believe me

I've watched it many times mate.

Maybe age had clouded my judgement.

I’ll believe it when I see it. “Sky sports understands....” tends to not lead to much.

Besic was off to Fulham for £5m last week and there’s been nothing further on that so I’m not exactly filled with confidence that this’ll happen either.
