This is the key really. I don't think it's fully grasped/understood by football people, although some are starting to get it (I think Thelwell actually did). The PL is the final stop for most players (outside of like 10-12 clubs in Europe). If...

Worry is would the step up be too big .... Cos in his role you are dealing with a completely different level of player against you

Unlwss you buy players that are either seeing the club as the first step to the bigger contract elsewhere OR are hungry to play. I know we ain't got many but I currently dont see any player at our club wed struggle badly to move on due to wages -...

We've noticeably the past few seasons shed every player at the club on over 100k per week. This season both DCL and Doucoure joined that group. The next bracket down those on 70-80 we either got rid off in Godfrey etc or have improved...

Never sign a player that isn’t sure if he wants to come to us. We only want hungry players.

He's on around 40k per week - that's the top estimate mate. He'll not be getting a 250% pay rise.

Money we spent was never the issue mate though really. It was the wages we offered which like United are finding can massively wreck your club for years

TFG could sanction a 150-200m spend pretty easily as long as that came without a ridiculous spiralling of wages too. It's why I'm doubtful of Grealish, Gallagher and to a degree Luiz as all three would be on 100k plus I'm guessing minimum of...

Yeah villa selling their women's team shows just his much of a psr mess they actually were in. It's a one off hit though, which is why they're likely looking at selling Ramsay as well - missing the CL was huge for them as it will be now for any...

Villa have already been fined and Forest and Newcastle will fail the UEFA 85% ratio test this year based on 24/25 squad costs so they cannot manipulate those figures to be within the limit now.

It won't at all, as the loan fee would be more than amortisation would be this season.

Yeah looks like they'll sell Ramsay as that deffo looks like a rumour started by villa to drum up interest

With villa being in Europe I dont see them being able to cope with adding even a third of his wages mate. I also think Forrest are gonna be in trouble in terms of those regulations - they had e a huge squad and even though they aren't paying...

Focused

Can do a roulette wheel of players we'd get linked with repeatedly easily mate
