The fact that we're going to be paying a player 250k pw will see the ears on some agents and players ears prick up I think.

Fofana may be asking his agent for bell Everton

Imagine Moyes / the 'committee' looking at Beto, Chermiti and Barry and thinking: "That's sorted for a season. We can get another in next summer".

It's crazy to me.

Speaking of crazy...

Im curious, what really good striker do you think they were able to convince to come here, with no RW, no #10 and no #8? Which really good striker was looking at that roster, the fact we have averaged 38 goals per season the last 3, and said "Ill take my career there"?

None. Build the foundation and next season you can sell Beto and find a great striker eager to join.

I really do worry we don't really have a proven/quality Premier Leagure striker in our team.

We’re not paying him that.

We are paying a loan fee to another club who can spend it as they wish.

The value of the loan fee equates to 250k per week which is high but reflects the status of the player.

Can we get Dibbling and Grealish?

 

[flibbyflob]

It will take 10 windows… then new owners will come

Windows 96

What we still do our paperwork on too

Can we get Dibbling and Grealish?

I think that's the idea, it's not one of the other it's both to my knowledge.

Can we get Dibbling and Grealish?

Hopefully.

Another loan and a right back and that'd be a fantastic window.

 

[GN!]

Can't believe we're paying him 250k a week.

I can’t believe it’s not butter

 

[Lloydaldo11]

I’m just jealous.
Wish someone was paying me £250k per year nevermind per week!

A week ago there were screams of “pay the money”

The reality is that with a new shiny stadium and ambition to get into Europe, at some point we will need to offer competitive wages.

A year ago we couldn’t afford £20k for a Burnley cast off…

Good. The strongest correlation in football is wage bill to league finishing position.

If we want to be in that top group of 8 clubs, we will start having to pay top 8 wages.

 

[MisterJ]

Can we get Dibbling and Grealish?

Yes

Based on no itk at all...

Well said

For me, Fofana & Dibling would be a masterstoke.

Sorts the wings long term as oppose to a loan.
