    Okay let’s break this down.

    IF you were talking about Joelinton scoring against Hull on his debut……. Were you wrong???????

    I know a solicitor that could tie you up in knots over this……eventually, if his secretary would answer his phones and pass him his messages <doh>

    Is saying oh sorry I thought you meant Joelinton despite him not scoring on his debut past Hull too difficult? :emoticon-0136-giggl

    Various rumours once again talking about Thiaw, Madueke and now adding Jhon Duran.

    Dunno what the confusion is with the Greek goalie, they overspent on our ****e so we overspent on theirs due to how PSR works. They helped us while we helped them but neither team wanted to weaken themselves so we spent 20 million on a **** goalie rather than the 80 million it would take to vastly overpay for Gibbs-White

    Almiron out and Madueke in would be a win. If we also got Thiaw then I'd be pretty happy with our dealings. Yes there's other areas and players that could improve but I think a team of:

    Gordon - Isak - Madueke

    Joelinton-Bruno-Tonali

    Hall-Botman-Thiaw-Trippier

    Pope


    With backups of:

    Barnes-Wilson-Murphy

    Willock-Longstaff-Miley

    Targett-Burn-Schar-Livramento

    Dubs

    Is good enough for 3-7 position, possibly the top end of that if we're lucky with injuries AND a couple of cup runs.

    This entirely. We needed to help each other out. The keeper was worth £5m and Anderson £15m so we both paid £20m more than their values. The fact we got a player we don't need and they got a player they could use is because we have better players than them, so they had to pay more money to reflect that. It's really not an issue.

    A 10 point deduction, now that would have been an issue.

    We essentially hampered ourselves to the tune of £4m per year (amortised value over 5 year) while being able to book a £35m pure profit to the PSR bottom line.

    For Forest, they posted a £20m profit (less any amortised fee on Chaka Deemus) while taking a £7m per year amortisation hit on Anderson.

    Back scratching of the highest order.

    More about Almiron to Saudi, fee should be at least £30m I assume

    I love your optimism. I'd be happy/surprised if it was above £20m. Chelsea signed Madueke for £29m and if we are in for him I suspect it's not going to be much more than that, if we manage to swap Miggy in our team for Madueke and it costs us £10-15m then I think that's excellent business.

    If he goes to Saudi, I don't think £30m is unrealistic. We got £25m from Saudi for an unwanted Twinkle Toes remember.

    Madueke had a decent season, I think his price will have definitely gone up.

    If rather we go for Gibbs -White than Madueke though, we're still 2/1 for him.

    Can't see us going for Madueke if we land Gibbs -White, MGW will cost at least £40m, maybe £50m.

    The only flaw with this theory is we sold Anderson pre 30th June and bought the GK afterwards.

    So why did we sell before 30th June and buy afterwards. How does that help NF pre 30th June?

    I fail to see how us buying after 30th a June helps NF pre 30th June unless it was this season in which they had FFP problems?
