Money

[Sona]

Ok, we just heard confirmation that the McCarthy deal WAS NOT dependent on player sales.

Therefore, we had £13m to spend BEFORE player sales.

We have just sold Fellaini and Anichebe for a total of £32.5m!

Factoring in the loan fees (£1m for Barry, £3m for Lukaku reported), means we should have AT LEAST...

£28.5m to spend in January!






Obviously, I don't expect this to actually be the case.

We didn't mate. We wanted to pay it in installments over 4 years.

We won't spend a penny in January mate. It's a farce, if the money was there then why wasn't it spent earlier?

 

[hudd101]

Erm, lad, I think you may be slightly disappointed.

 

[Essex Blue]

There should be a minimum of 20 million available to spend in January. More TV money is on its way as well.

Rookie mistake there, getting all positive and enthusiastic about Everton's trnasfer dealings!!

Lukaku was reportedly costing WBA £5m, so £3m sounds low. Point accepted. It doesnt' work like you said though. Wages (inc Barry).

I'm expecting big money spent on a striker at some point in the next two transfer windows now.

Baines new contract is more important than any signings in January.

I know that, but I'm making this point now so there is no confusion come January. I fully expect to be let down again, but the board may have shot themselves in the foot this time by claiming they already had the money; all it takes is simple maths as above to point that out.

Really? £5m loan fee? That seems absurdly high. Where did you see that?

I take your point in wages, but Fellaini was reportedly on circa £70k per week. That's surely more than enough to cover Barry?

Five million pound loan fees? Can't see it being anything like that.

Would love it to be on Lukaku, though I know it's unlikely.

Can't we worry about January in December rather than now, 45 mins after the windows slammed shut ffs
