The Guardian says we're paying nearly £10m to loan Barry and Lukaku. If you know something they don't, please share.

£3m Lukaku loan fee.
£1m Barry loan fee.

Thats £4m upfront done.
Leaving £6m to be divided between the pair of them (wages) which will be quite clearly spread over the course of the season. Its pretty obvious.
If you do the maths for Barrys supposed £120k week wages, its £6m a year, i highly doubt Chelsea are paying 100% of Lukakus, so no, we're not paying all of Barrys wages.

It's unbelievable how many people don't understand simple football facts like this right?

It's so obvious that the £10m is wages and the fees.

The final paragraph says absolutely NOTHING about us having no money to spend in January:lol:

Do the maths you fool.

£32.5m in;

£2m out to Liege (as per the article)

£14m to Wigan for McCarthy (in the article)

£9m to loan Lukaku and Barry (guesstimate based on article saying "nearly £10m") - it makes no mention of whether wages are included in that figure or not.

That's £25m of the £32.5m gone. Leaves £7.5m, of which some might or might not be earmarked for wages for Lukaku and Barry.

If you're right, we have £7.5m left to spend. It's not nothing, but it isn't the £15m to £20m so many people have been deluding themselves about all day. If I'm right.... well, we'll see in January, won't we pal.

Okay mate. You think that we'd spend a combined £10m fee for two players: one of which has 10 months left on his contract; the other is a 20 year old who was never going to start for Chelsea this season.

Do the maths you fool.

We're paying most likely around half of Barry's wages (60-70k a week) and all of Lukaku's wages (knowing Chelsea, probably also in the region of 60k a week). This comes out to a total of around 130k a week. Which for the rest of the season would be just over £5m for the pair's wages.

Following on from that, we're most likely paying around £3m for Lukaku's loan and some people were saying it's £1m for Barry's loan.

This totals at just over £9m for the two for the year. This is probably the "nearly £10m" being touted in that article.

The sales of Anichebe (30k a week) and Fellaini (75k a week) cover much of the added wages, not including the £32.5m in from their transfers.

We should still have around £15m left for January, and if not there should be questions asked.
 

Lets not get carried away fellas.

At end of the day, we've packed the squad with loan players. We don't own them. It's a house built on sand whilst the net transfer fees disappear as they do every year.

Bills laughing his arse off.

Half players are from Wigan and one is too old. The other two we don't have a hope in hell of signing permanently.

The biggest benefit from this whole thing is hopefully osman doesn't ever play again.

We have 3 players on loan don't we? That's hardly packing a team with loaned players. Also, half our players are not from Wigan.

But I suppose 'fans' like yourself will find a negative aspect to anything the club does. I'm ashamed my username can be associated with yours. Although i do agree with your assessment of Osman.
 
Didn't want to start a new thread. Does anyone know the kit numbers of our new players we signed on transfer deadline day??

We had some money before the sales of vic and Fellaini. There is then also the matter of extra TV money over the coming years, then the 32.5M transfer in comings. We have money for January and behond.

Found it very key that Everton would make a statement to say Mcarthy deal was done irrespective of Fellaini deal (very un-Everton like) which points to the fact were not brassic!

You'll never work out the exact amounts we have spent/have left but we should be able to be active in coming windows.
