How much will we spend??

[bicycleheader]

any good rumours of us signing anyone in Spain mate? Does anyone in Spain even know who we are anymore ( except for Villareal and Atletico Bilbao). Be boss to get a Spanish club in the EL

Apart from the talk about Deulofeu coming back here and Koeman scouting Sandro I haven't really seen anything....although once I got pretty fluent in Spanish I stopped reading the papers and websites. I'd love us to snap up some good technical players from La Liga, some smarts up front.

Was hoping Espanyol would make a late surge for the EL so there'd be a chance to see us here. Be great to travel anywhere around Spain to see us though. Never seen us in European competition.

I've always wondered why we haven't gone for more Spanish type players, Arteta was such a special player we should have been right over there looking for the next one.

So many technically gifted players, hopefully this summer we bag ourselves a couple

How much we spend isn't really important... it's how we spend it and who we spend it on. A few years ago the loveables over the park were spending 100 million a window.... on what ??? Downing, Adam and Carroll. Clever spending is better than lashing huge sums about.

any sales money will maybe go towards the ground move - not all will be spent - but we will get players lets wait and see!

Amazed me that after a year in Spain, Moyes signed Pienaar, anichebe, Gibson, Oviedo and Lescott for Sunderland.
Wtf was he watching in Spain?

There should be an option for ''nowhere near enough''

And this is where Steve Walsh has to start earning his corn

Wise words indeed. Sadly, there are a lot on here who won't agree.

This an transfer fees are more or less irrelevant these days, the true cost of a transfer is in wages.

DING! DING! DING!

Spot on. I swear some people on here wouldn't mind getting fleeced for no mark players as long as we lashed a bit of cash about and had huge net spend.

Moshiri is an accountant, they're not usually known for being silly spenders. He also appointed Walsh, known for finding quality bargains, so again it doesn't look like he intends to go mad with the money. Having said that I do think he will put his hand in his pocket if there's a good deal to be made.
