There's definitely going to be a decent spend, given the squad pruning over the last few years. There's no chance we're paying the wages Cunha et al want, but daresay there's a decent chance that we'll be spending a fair few transfer fees, given the number of players we need in, albeit in the 15mil-ish environs. Where I trust Moyes to find value.  Previous MessagePrevious MessageHow much do you think we'll have to spend? Given the extreme austerity we've endured for the past few seasons, new owners, some debts cleared, new stadium and commercial revenue, could we do what Brighton did last summer? I'm not advocating spending for spending's sake. I just want us to buy the right players regardless of cost. But surely there's a bit more powder in our keg now And given how transfer spend is spread across contract length, could we say just for example sign Cunha for £60 million, Delap for £40 million and Mbeumo for £50 million on 5 year contracts, and only book £30 million as expenditure on player recruitment for 2025? |
