Player Valuation: £20m
The other slight fly in the ointment with replacing Brands is that his successor has no money to spend.
No, not with this manager.So Godfrey in for Digne when he inevitability gets injured. And Holgate for Coleman (as Kenny is blatantly atrocious) when he inevitably gets injured.
We’ll be back to the brand of football we saw last season in no time.

25-30 million is what we tend to spend on other clubs' rejects ,so I estimate we'll throw about 29m at the problem
To be devils advocate., from the outside it looks like Brands has been undermined to an extent by having to please incoming managers (ie. Allardyce, Ancelotti, Benitez) and get rid of historic transfers.
His successes have probably been Mina, Godfrey, Digne, Gray.
Gomes was wanted by the fans. Gbamin could be seen as unlucky. Kean was an understandable gamble imo.
Delph was a poor signing.
Iwobi was a very overpriced signing but may not be quite as bad as he is made out.
