Winter transfer window

Could also be used to up our wage cap too, if we brought in the lad from Chile we were linked to it could work for all parties, in theory a big sale allows us to shop in a better pool of player, all hypothetical though and we all know nothing is guaranteed in football, interesting few weeks ahead though!

 

There's so much ready made and ready to play talent we could sign for £25m.

Whitakker at Plymouth - no more than £7m
Millar at Preston on loan from Basel - no more than £7m. (Basel signed him for £1.3m from Liverpool)

That's no more than £14m on two players and still with at least £11m to spend.

Then if / when Leicester go up, there's no way Cannon is starting for them in the PL. So he will be loaned or sold to the Championship, and we'd have the money this time to make it us.

Just an example of how we could sign an entire front line of top championship ready players, having only lost one.

I just hope thats how Speakman etc see it. Rather than JUST foreign based lads.

 

I’d much rather your list of players than the Venezuelan under 18 internationals we’d inevitably sign I do think they will tweak the model in reality 3 coaches back to back now have mentioned experience it can’t go ignored forever, maybes we need a sale in order to make the tweaks?

 

Remember, Spurs take a big wedge out of any fee received.

 

30% of any profit ? Is that correct ? How much did we pay for Clark

 

I believe so. I honestly thought it was 2m but seem some random information to say it was 10m. That will be bull.

 

Don't forget 30% of any Clarke money goes to Spurs. So we get £16.5m of a £25m transfer fee

EDIT: Should have read the rest of the thread before commenting

 

Thats a big lump of money towards improving the team, even parachute clubs might not spend that this window

 

Also add the 8/10/12m Stewart money, unless that was already spent on Aouchiche, Pembele, Jobe, Seelt and Rusyn of course

 

Yeh fair. I was also being conservative with my numbers though. And 30% of £25m is £17.5m

Although I think its just 30% of profit, so a bit more than £17.5m.

If we signed him for £3m, sell for £25m, then it's £22m profit. We'd have to give £6.6m to Spurs and be left with £18.4m.

So many hypotheticals in this post mind

 

That's me convinced now, get him sold ASAP lol

 

If we get could a tune out of Jewison Bennette
It would make life simpler in terms of replacing JC.

 

I suspect the Stewart money covered the Summer spending, if it didnt then its quite the War Chest

 

Got to get him games somewhere, I think.

 

The Stewart money paid for the black cats bar decorating last weekend mate - I saw it on twitter.

 

Hahaha don’t re-open that can of worms!

 

Ah yes of course. Thanks for bringing that up, I had briefly forgotten how angry I was

 

Oh come on, when was the last time it was reported we had a War Chest to Swoop or Pounce for a player

Bring back the "Black Cats Pounce to sign Player X" Headlines

 

Looking forward to hearing but us "keeping tabs" on a few players, whilst "preparing a bid" for a "schemer" or two

 

I prefer a good old raid.
