I'm not sure that was the underlying point I was making mate!

The reality is, players playing for the top teams always have a premium, and always did since the United days.

When you look at some of the deals, 15 for Mori, 10 for Klaassen, 10 for Rooney I don't think is too bad!

We've bought a tonne of rubbish under Koeman and Walsh and put them on huge contracts. It's going to be very difficult to move a to of them on. I'd say he's made a pretty valiant effort. If his own signings flop, thats when questions need to be asked.
Mori £8M; Klaassen £12M; Rooney no fee.

£20M brought in for those three. Not great really, is it?
 
I doubt that very much.

Anyway still applies to other gash that’s on a king ransom. Wages innit
The proposition that we "have loads out on loan on wages of £120k pw, so what do you expect Brands to do about that?", is for the birds.

It's much less acute than that, and we shouldn't be handing a man who is paid to bring cash in as well as spend cash a blank cheque to simply giveaway players we no longer require.

Holgate
Martina
Mirallas
Tarashaj
Bolasie
Ramirez
Niasse
Onyekuru
Vlasic
Besic

...if they were all shifted, what would you say is a reasonable total amount that could be brought in?
 
So let's just all expect Brands to have no impact or inspiration at all then?

Just accept buttons or pay the loaned players off?

FFS, half the feller's job is to get those players sold off as well as the other half of his job buying players in.

It's like asking someone to demolish a house and then build on the footprint...and then applauding him for walking away leaving a pile of rubble.

Brands cannot be held accountable for our players being turd and unwanted, sorry.

£20-30m? Honestly not too arsed.. the wages we'd recover there alone would be invaluable.

"Not too arsed"?!

The difference between your figure and twice that amount that is about 2/3 new very decent players.

But if you're "not arsed"....
 
lol just shift all these garbage players that no one wants who are on stupid money hahaha let me use that as a stick to bash Brands with

davek doing his garbage trolling again,

The money for transfers is already there Dave, if needed.

Let's be real - if there's a target we want this summer and he's going to cost 'x' amount we aren't going to start relying heavily on shifting all or even some of the deadwood first.. no matter what you choose to believe. Wages are a different story.

We didn't spend money in January because we didn't want to - not that we couldn't.

Average wage pw of ALL those out on loan = £40k.

The inconvenient truth.

We've relied on player sales for the bulk of players bought since the carpetbagger arrived.
