Theres the specifics.
Next Summer, I am willing to bet that nobody factors in the payments we will have to make next Summer for the players we sign this Summer.
Keep it simple.
Richarlison sold for 60m.
Onana 22m
McNeil 20m
Gana no idea
Coady will have a loan fee
And we aint signing Guedes.
Oh I’m sure we’re not signing Guedes. But the “full” figures are only particularly relevant if we work on the theory of us being ACTUALLY skint.
If we are in fact not skint, but just not ALLOWED to spend freely, then the amortised numbers are much more relevant.
The same numbers that say we didn’t make a £10m profit on Richy (as most of the media state it) but actually in FFP/P&L terms more like a £44m profit.
